not a bad weekend for the Sauber team...

JV seems to be better after his marriage..even in testing this week he is quick..

next round in canada ya? its villeneuve's place... i think we will be able to see bmw sauber fans all over the seating areas... btw, i found tat the circuit is named circuit de gilles villeneuve... does this montreal circuit relate to jacques villeneuve too?

its named after his father as a respect to him...btw, jv gonna release his singles during this weekend..he recorded a singles during the previous break(end of season).

lol
he can sing? wow

i really don agree with u... besides i think that the 2006 mclaren mercedes is the best-looking formula 1 car so far... it looks very special n sleek with chrome body, plus the black colored ENKEI rims make it look very mysterious and cool!

dunno, mayb u try to find his album and have a go at it??then let us know, haha

man... jacques really got busted in his own place! how can he drive until like tat? if he crashes into the the WALL OF CHAMPIONS (which is the wall located at the last corner into the starting grid), i think he could be a champion in the season to come... haha!

total elimination in the US huh....still a long way to go for this team

Sauber is Sauber Petronas Rite?

petronas is the premium sponsor of bmw sauber

no more title sponsor

you just haveta love the twin towers on those cars

i was hoping it would give them a significant boost in speed and start a new trend

hmm... i think Malaysia always like to claim this and that as our country's signature... they put up the twin wings there, then say its twin tower... lol

Jacques really got to retire...

bye bye 'twin towers',& back to 14th & 16th hopefully, they can reintroduce some other creative designs after the summer break.

erm...sth like TM HQ? what do we call that btw?

haha, another one bites the dust. i guess taking out ur teammate in the 1st corner while being employed by a highly political team can cost u ur job. 1st montoya, now villeneuve??


TM HQ is kinda like a sailboat right? they shud introduce a malaysian "wau" design on the side winglets instead of copying the mclaren's horns

The McLaren horn is because they are the only team other than sauber not using a vertical T-wing mounted on the airbox. Thus the Sauber engineer copied that because it will has less impact to the aero design of the airbox compared to mounting a T-wing
the Twin tower was banned because it looked so damned ugly it insenced Max Mosley

loh...kidding?
i tot any part of the car will b banned if it'll give significant advantage against other teams...like ferrari's flapping wings...or part that kills sportmanship...like renault's launch control sys
not bcos it looks damn ugly...

I think Mosley was looking at his own reflection at the shiny surface of that
