Any good review/news shows in the off season? Or I think maybe the major sports channels (fox sports, sky, bbc) just incorporate a 10-15 min F1 spot into their general shows on occasion...

Ferrari unveiling the car on February 7.

Just as I hoped!!!

The writing was pretty much on the wall for this one.

Hulkenberg was pretty much giving it away during his interview w/ BBC during the Brazilian GP weekend.

I'll be keen to keep my eye on Force India now.

Double World Champion Fernando Alonso and Raquel del Rosario have confirmed that they have decided to end their marriage.

The 30-year-old Ferrari driver and del Rosario, lead singer of Spanish pop band El Sueno de Morfeo, tied the knot in 2006 but have now decided to go their separate ways.

A statement issued by the couple on Tuesday said: "After five years of marriage, we have decided to end our relationship as a couple. This has been a very though about [sic] and mutual decision. We are separating from marriage, but never as friends, and there is still a very strong affection and mutual admiration to ensure the happiness of the other.

"With this statement, addressed to all who follow our careers, we wish to bring an end to any speculation. With it, we ask that the media respects our personal lives which, as you know, we have always been keen to protect. With love - Raquel and Fernando"

Hope Bruno gets the seat at Williams. I like Rubens but I think Bruno will serve the team better and is a bit underrated in my opinion.
