It's separate from the IRL, F1 is run by the FIA and their sueing all 7 teams and Michelin. Basically Ferrari is the only real team not on Michelin, since their the darlings of the FIA, they wouldn't budge on these stupid tire regulations that say you have to use one set of tires for the whole race. Michelin blew it by not bringing a tire capable of running on the highspeed banking at indy. Michelin wanted them to put in a chicane in to slow the corner. FIA and Ferrari wouldn't have. so only 6 cars raced due to safety. Short story long, this could have been the last F1 race we see at Indy and maybe the end of the USGP. Sucks

i see mod. my mom sent me a news article and i couldn't quite understand what was happening. corners are good. stupid americans like ovals.
I think that sums it up pretty. Although it's old news, rally Turkey is replaying tonight on speed at 10 or 10:30.
i'll try to catch that.
MW I was wrong, first showing of rally acropolis is on at 10, don't be late!
