Hey.. Sorry I am not a part of the fantasy GP thing, so am gonna talk about something else..
Do the sunday races, and all those overtaking maneuvers, inside line, outside line, slipstream, slingshots, wheel-to-wheels, aggressive and defensive styles, etc. charge up the normal F1 fan to the limit that he tries to do all those things on the road too? I mean, i personally find myself thinkin ' outside line higher speed' when ovrtkin a guy on the road, or a 'slipstream, move out, overtake and close the door' wen middle of the road thing is going on. And the phenomenon occurs mostly on sundays, after a race..

Seriusly, FIA should have a " Dont try this on Roads" warning before and after the races..

Slip stream at 40Kms/hr????.Weird things do happen inside one's head..
But what you say is kinda true. I do it too sometimes..'slipstream with a bike'...

But will the warning "Dont try this on Roads" have any affect on F1 fanatics

Hehe.. sometimes in delhi( thts where i am), one can achieve speeds upto 120 kmph.. 80kmph generally, on some roads... well, for indian cars, it is quite good enough, and well, the tyres screech and stuff.. the adrenaline is definitely as high as wen dear ole Schumi was doin one of those daring things on track

....and the safety car lines up at the end of the grid, the white of the Maruti Omni Ambulance gleaming in the hot sun as we wait for the 5 lights to come on and then go out...and the Indian Grand Prix is GO !!

Excellent start by ashish and vicky....the starting line is a blaze of yellow autos and bikes but leading the pack approaching the first chicane is Ashish in his scarlet...umm...tata nano...its wheel to wheel with Vicky into turn one where the speeds can be as high as 40 kmph....running directly behind ashish into the speed trap and OHHHHH ha ha vicky's aerodynamics are in compelte shambles as he tries to slipstream past the nano with his...umm...Pulsar 150 Dtsi...what a race...the stewards will definitely looking at that potential blocking manoeuvre....Vicky is not letting Ashish relax in his number 1 track position as you can see the distance between them in the rajpath curve was a mere .342 seconds, is ashish running on a lighter fuel load or do the softer compound tires on his Nano giving him an advantage, we'll only have to wait and see till the first round of pit-stops start....

A little commentary piece thank you.
