Badger GP – F1 Fan Meetup.

January 31, 2012 in F1, F1 2012, Formula 1

I see an awful lot of posts on Tumblr about people having to suppress their inner-Formula 1  fan while around their real life friends and can only really talk about it in great detail with people online. Fear not though UK Formula 1 fans, Badger GP are coming to the rescue.

On Sunday the 12th of February, Badger GP are hosting a Formula 1 fan meet up at the Roxy Bar and Screen in London. (It’s roughly 3 miles from London Euston train station).

It’ll be a great opportunity to get to know other Formula 1 fans and talk about your thoughts on the new cars and the upcoming season. They’ll  be screening the film Grand Prix from 1966 and showing pictures of the 2012 cars. (The ones that have been unveiled that is.)

You’ll be able to chat to the guys behind Badger GP and to other Formula 1 bloggers such as Tommy Bellingham from WTF1.co.uk.

To find out more information about the event, go to Badger GP’s website. 

Tickets are £4.50 or £8 for two tickets.

I will definitely be there, providing train tickets aren’t insane. I mean it’s on a Sunday for goodness sake, how can you justify over £20 for Birmingham New Street to London Euston one way?

Will you be joining me?

The Secret Diary of Fernando Alonso.

January 26, 2012 in F1, F1 2012, Felipe Massa, Fernando Alonso, Ferrari, Formula 1

I was told today to try out a light-hearted funny post, which isn’t something I’ve tried out on this blog yet. It’s been received positively on Tumblr though, so here we go. 

Hola Tifosi,

How’s your year been so far?

Over the past few weeks I’ve been very busy. A couple of weeks ago it was Ferrari’s annual Wrooom event in Madonna di Campiglio. On the last day I had an accident with the hair drier in the hotel which resulted in me looking like Whitney Houston, it embarrassed Felipe a lot. Read the rest of this entry →

January 25, 2012 in Caterham, F1, F1 2012, Formula 1

Thanks to the speedy work of the postal service, a sentence never said before, we also have a shot from the F1 Racing magazine.

What do you think of it? I think the nose looks funny. It sounds very childish I know, kinda reminds me of a crocodile.
