That looks totally insane and it's a miracle people aren't dying in those much more than they are. And then imagine the good old days that had spectators everywhere, and most of them in the most dangerous spots. Crazy.

I watched one of Kubica going through some tiny village roads and it looked loving insane, these guys have out of this world reflexes.

Kanye wouldn't have driven for a pleb manufacturer like Mercedes. He would only drive for Lambo and would've spent 5,000 hours working with engineers to get the perfect engine sound.

In some actual F1 news, Carlos Sainz Jr. gets the 2nd Toro Rosso seat.

BBC posted:

Carlos Sainz Jr: Renault champion joins Toro Rosso for 2015

Carlos Sainz Jr - the son of the two-time former world rally champion of the same name - will join Toro Rosso for the 2015 Formula 1 season.

The 20-year-old is the youngest ever winner of the World Series by Renault 3.5 Championship.

"I have had a very successful season in World Series by Renault this year and now I am looking forward to taking the step up to Formula 1," Sainz said.

"I tested for a day with Toro Rosso last year and I liked the atmosphere."

I hope Rosberg and Vettel both end up at Red Bull somehow, through some twist of fate, so the entire team can finally reach Peak Whiny Bitch and promptly disappear up its own rear end in a top hat. Mercedes should trade Rosberg to Red Bull for ARE DAN, because that would be awesome.

I've flagged 5 GP's (and tons of regional stuff, both on stand and in race control) and have been a corner chief the last two Canadian GP's I've worked, so I should know enough to write something up...

I'm sure the real F1 fans would love to read the fine detail of what the marshals do and the changes coming up for next year.

Diecast help?

I've been trying to find a few 1/64's in the F1 category, and have been a tad bit successful recently.

I see Burago has made a few for Red Bull in recent years. I've also seen a few from the early 2000's (including a bad rear end Blue and Yellow Renault one that some fucker just outbid me on ebay :negative:).

Is there a better location for me to be looking for either of these? I'm not thrilled with EBay.

For Reference, this is the type of stuff I'm looking at:

(What's bizarre is that these were available in the states in stores a few years ago. So much so that my Little Brother STILL has Montoya's Williams).
