Post here all non technical related topics about Formula One. This includes race results, discussions, testing analysis etc. TV coverage and other personal questions should be in Off topic chat.
Youthful impetuousness and courage are not enough, nor is the will to succeed. To be a driver means that one must be part of the machine for hours, hands at the wheel and gear lever, feet on throttle, clutch, and brake, and eyes on the revolution counter, water, and oil gauge. God help the man who loses control for even a fraction of a second, or who is mastered by emotions and thoughts concerning matters other than racing. The machine will kill him without a doubt...

Don't know who exactly said this, or are these exact words, it happened after one driver didn't make through the corner!
It went something like this : '' He run out of his talent in the middle of the corner! ''
I think it went something like "I was fine until mid-corner, that's pretty much where I ran out of talent and spun the car." and I think it was Tom Fowler.
A shark? No, I like to think I'm more like a panther. A shark attacks from behind without you knowing. A panther, you know it's coming - but he still gets you..
Back in '97 or so when Brundle said "His tyres are absolutely rooted" and Murray was lost for words for a bit.
Being the legend he was, he recovered pretty quickly though.
