| My first taste of F1 was back in 2001 when I listened to BBC Radio 5 Live and enjoyed it since, my all-time favourite F1 driver is the late Ayrton Senna because he was a legend! |

WOW! I'm jealous! Although when I was 10, I met Murray Walker (BBC commentator) which was the most amazing thing ever at the time because I totally idolised him and still do, lol. |

| I love motor racing in general. I used to watch F1 with my parents when I was a kid then stopped for a few years for various reasons then started again about 2007. More recently I've also started following NASCAR (Cup, Nationwide and Trucks), Indycar and V8 Supercars. I've enjoyed the racing more in recent years due to the performance of the teams being closer together. The final race of the year at Brazil was fantastic, Vettel really proved he could handle the pressure while coming back through the pack (probably helped by having finished well after starting at the back at Abu Dhabi two races prior). Just as exciting a finish as the last race of the 2008 season. The US Grand Prix was great too, it was nice to see the cars sliding around with relatively low grip. Eagerly awaiting the start of the 2013 season now! |

Been watching since 1994. Admittedly as a four year old it's just cars driving fast, but my Mum got me watching.
Last race I missed live was the 2003 United States Grand Prix. On count, I believe I've seen 166 consecutive live races (even waking up at stupid times to plonk myself in front of the TV!).
I've been a Jenson Button fan since he took his first podium in 2004. Was a DC guy before that. |
Me too! I have been watching F1 since 1997. So I might have, watched 200+ races but I don't know for sure, but if I have, it probably has been that long.
On a sad note Speed TV (local USA) will no longer cover F1 on their channel. It will now go to the NBCsports cable channel, but I would love to see the BBC coverage of F1 races. |

As far as I'm concerned. I'm pretty pumped! I got to see the track on the web and it looks pretty high class. It looks like it could be pretty good track. There was a bit of a scare that the track would be never finished but however they found a way to keep the track from going under. Hopefully the USA can get some drivers into F1 and be sucessful. Connor Daly comes to mind. The USA hasn't had a great homegrown F1 racer since Phil Hill in 1961. Sure Mario Andretti won in 78 but he was born in europe and that a gave him a little bit of an advantage. |

| I agree that was awesome. Now if only Sergio Perez had not gotten into a crash. |

| I'm a motorsports engineering student. I like F1, but I like MotoGP, NASCAR and DTM more. Too much politics in F1 and at Monaco, there were only 9 passes in the whole race. My prof from last yr now works for Williams F1. He was race engineer for Nick Heidfeld for a yr at Sauber. In case you didn't notice, motorsports is my obsession. |
