And since we're on the topic of Ferrari's anyone watch growing up Gotti last night? The fawkin mother was driving a MT F355 and grinding every gear along with stalling it and causing a traffic jam. I shed tears for that poor car.

I wish that site had more info. The results don't show which cars they were driving in the head to head. But it looks like Loeb is the world's best.

Unfortunately Shumacher lost this to a very young competitor.

i think Schumacher cracked the ferrari windshield on that jump

i saw this last night on HDNET, it was pretty cool but the announcers are idiots, they kept identifying the wrong drivers in the cars even though each car has the national flag of each driver

That jump cracked the winshield. They had to put a chicane (sp?) before that part of the track after he did this..

lol no doubt... I heard HDNet gets just like, anyone from an available group of commentators for any specific event... so they may not necessarily know anything about what they are commentating on... including what country drivers are from and their appropriate COUNTRY FLAGS!!!

as far as I'm concerned, any one of us could have been commentating on that event, LOL

That's some nice suspension... even the wheel-well gaps don't look that large with all the wheels in the air!!
