Hiya everyone

I'm Hannah and currently live in Norfolk, UK although I am a Londoner.

I've watched F1 for as long as I can remember and have become fanatical about it in recent years. Hamilton is my number 1 driver, but I'm also a big fan of Sutil, Rosberg, Chandhok, Kovalainen and Barichello. Not so much of Trulli and Kubica though

I'm not such a technical person (although would LOVE to be one day!) so am more into the political side which is always great, and obviously the racing

Finally, I'm very optimistic and enthusastic so don't expect anything doom and gloom from me...

Hi Hannah, It is nice and peaceful here in Norfolk isnt it.
I am near Norwich where are you?
So you are interested in the political side?
Big changes there since Jean Todt took over.
It remains to be seen as to how much influence Ferrari manages to keep.
There are going to be very big changes over the next few years.

Hi Hannah,

Were you once of Crash.net? If so F1 technical is a far more placid environment with a much better bunch of poster than the the other site.
Welcome anyways and the emoticons gave it away!

[Hannah.]

autogyro - yea, love it here in Norfolk, I'm just south of Norwich, which is great as the shopping is brilliant
I was a bit wary when Todt got the position but as yet (and fingers crossed it continues) there hasn't been any sign of bias...although I don't think he'd risk doing so as his dealings with Ferrari and Schumi will be so closely scrutinized. Anyway, he certainly doesn't attract as much media attention as old Max...

Johnson - I am indeed, got fed of certain posters so gave up! Can't leave the smilies alone...and there's even more here, haha

[andrew]

AW NO!!!! There goes the neighbourhood!!

Yes crash is pretty poor these days.

I forsee the smilies getting a good workout from now on!! And you can set up your own threads for the Hamilton appreciation without fear of trolls!!

(Please note that me and Johnson reserve the right to extract the michael on a friendly banter basis when you start getting too excited about Hamilton again.)

[Hannah.]

Yup, Crash is just full of trolls with little interest in F1 at the mo, and it just got to the point where I couldn't be bothered to trawl through all the crap and read all the abusive ones

Of course the smilies will be coming out, especially as there as SO many!!! A Hamilton thread, sounds good but I suspect you'd be the first on it doing what you do...
OK, but I reserve the right to tell you both to shut up and also to ignore every word you both say on the subject

[andrew]

I only stick around on crash to wind up the trolls. There are a handfull that are wroth reading but most are point less (3 poster spring to mind immediately).

Doing what I do? Am I really that predictable? I'll have to through a curve ball sometime!

Hiya everyone

Girls who likes racing! how nice is that?

Also 2 persons (8ond and andrew) who likes Ferrari and MS but not Fernando... mmm... I think thats the norm among Ferrari fans I know in my country, too... I´ll see what happens if Fernando wins a WDC

Ridhwan, did you go to watch your home country GP?

Welcome all!

[Hannah.]

Girls who likes racing! how nice is that?

haha, love racing more like, hope there's no sexism in that though but hi anyway and thanks for the welcome


Yea I kinda noticed that Andrew, popped back a couple of times in the last day or so, very funny, even saw a thread with quite a few posts debating whether I'd make a comeback
And yes you are that predictable...sorry. Curveball would be interesting, although I don't think you could manage anything anywhere near 'Hamilton is a decent driver'

[Belatti]

hope there's no sexism in that though

Not at all and I wish my GF would love racing!
She still cant understand how can I wake up a saturday at 3am to watch an F1 qualy

You wern't posting were you? The resident snoop thought you were during their weekly round of accusations.

Darn it, you got me sussed! There are a few hamilton fans lurking and I have already had a run in with one of them, but so have several others with this LH fan by the looks of it.

Well that's alright then and no I don't think anyone understands the sense in that, I don't even understand why I get up! Recording it just isn't the same though! [-(


Hope you're not accusing me of multi-posting there Andrew because no I wasn't, was it some guy called Ian or something who everyone latched on to and accused of being me?!
Glad to hear there are some Hamilton fans around, the people who are right obviously , is there anyone who you manage to avoid arguments with?!
Oh and I had you sussed yonks ago btw

[andrew]

I will not comment further on crash and posting as there are those on here and there but as I said, it is only good for winding up trolls.

I know you wasn't multi-posting and it doesn't really matter what folk do, as long they aren't offensive.

What was I sussed about

Darn smilies are spreading!!
