I love auto racing. Formula 1, CART/IRL, Rolex cars, NASCAR, Busch (sometimes), Craftsman (sometimes) … hell I even watch the shows on cable that tell you how to build, customize and hot rod cars. So yeah, I like auto racing.
With that in mind, aside from keeping track of goings on on Everest, I’m also going to keep you all informed about what’s going on in the wonderful world of wheels as well. Mostly open wheel stuff, but I’ll posts winners and big losers in most of the wheel sports every Monday.
For those of you who missed it (6 a.m. on Speed, live), the Bahrain Grand Prix kicked off Formula One season with Renault driver Fernando Alonso, the current world champ, beating the former world champ, Michael Schumacher by 1.2 seconds, which isn’t close in Formula One. The best performance was by a a rookie (first season, first race named Nico Rosberg driving a Williams> He started at the back of the field and finished seventh.
The nice surprise was American driver Scott Speed who drove his first race for Scuderia Toro Rosso (Red Bull), He finished a lap down in 13th. The photo above comes from Renault
