Perhaps rather than using his money to bet on Texiera winning he should use it to pay his rivals not to turn up - although in saying that he'd probably still stuff it in the wall and fail to finish!
Talking of walls and failings to finish just caught the pics of Senna's car following his shunt and that looks nasty - glad hes Ok and the only thing that could be terminally damaged is his championship chances. |

the fota.co.uk site has some pictures of bruno's car shortly after the accident for those wishing to view it. top style points, i might add, that was a proper job. and it just goes to show how strong the cars are.
having thought for a good few minutes, i can't actually think of anything else to say about the snetterton races! did anyone from the forum take part in the sports relief mile? |

Yes, Senna's car looked pretty shocking afterwards. I don't remember having seen one quite as bad, although the roll-over hoop was unmarked and the rear wing still pretty much in one piece. Bizarre. Photo here. The race results are provisional pending the outcome of an enquiry into the collision between him and Salvador Duran. Bruno was completely uninjured, but he may be a bit sore tonight. The cars were up around the 150 mph mark when it all happened.
Race 2 was more exciting. Oli Jarvis started from pole, but Mike Conway attacked very hard when the lights changed and was in the lead by the end of the straight on lap one. Oli chased him him all the way to the line and had a serious effort to regain the lead after a safety car period, but just failed to make it stick, despite setting fastest lap. Maro Engel and Stephen Jelley had their own battle for 3rd, which was quite hectic at times, but they finished in that order. Race report here and results here. The safety car intervention was because Duran had had another tangle, this time with Alberto Valerio. Not his day, although he probably feels better than Bruno, who has dropped to 3rd in the points table now. |

According to motorsport.com, Senna's car hit the bridge!

As usual for me, I had just left my vantage point after the bridge to catch the racing at the last chicane. As I left it seems young Bruno had one of the biggest smashes ever seen/missed.
Delighted he is ok. He must be aching today in more ways than one though as Mike Conway has really taken charge of the championship now. Great day yesterday, shame I left my shades on all day as i now have a burnt face and white glasses marks . |

It was quite entertaining. MST gave transponders to all the F3 drivers to carry and there's a report on their private race here. Stephen Jelley made it a hat-trick of wins for Double R over the weekend. He also won overall, but FFord driver, Ruth Senior, was something a ringer. She's a trained runner and finished second overall, ahead of Stuart Hall, although Stuart was handicapped by running in full racing overalls, which was the original plan. Esteban Guerrieri (from the F3 Euroseries) also took part, but was trounced by the BF3 guys! I scarcely dare mention it, but Rodolfo Gonzales was beaten by, er, Ricardo Teixeira... |

My Opinion
We're Looking for the king. The new Messiah maybe. We're following the star shining brighter. Old man won't you help us if you can he shook his head but he pointed his hand. I also made mistakes but I realize some few things after the racing:
1- Bruno Senna accident was made by incorrect and dangerous move of Duran. UK marshals can't put order in British circuits (João Vasconcelos says) . 2- RR Racing is pushing for Conway not for Senna. Heaven knows Robertson is british like Conway and he wants a British champion. 3- Alan Docking is not a top team anymore. Big old cups of Mr Doking are steaming cider. 4- Performance is not a good team for Teixeira. The Angolan Speed Demon deserved a better team. I miss Carlin. Wonder what ole Santa's bringing next Christmans for the best National Class driver. He is fast but the car is not good or the engineer is not good enough for the driver. 5- There's a new kid in town. His name is Cristiano Morgado. The Portuguese from Sul-Africa is fast as Gonzalez. |

LOL! Noisy you are one thing and thats entertaining - I've missed you!
Why the hell would RR want Conway to win over Senna? Don't you think Senna would tell um where to stuff it if that was true? His Uncle certainly would have done! And which result would they get more PR off Conway or Senna winning the title? Teixera did nowt with Carlin and nowt with Performance - if you stuck him in a RR car he'd still come last! |

In a hearse rollin' over Sonangol Performance Racing would not accept Ricardo if he was not as fast as I think he is. Not to go back to the low he did two National Class podiuns this year. He can win. I can't make you hang around but if he wasn't so fast how can Sonangol Performance Racing would accept him on the team. More: Sonangol Performance Racing is going to be announced in a English motorshow next few days, right? Last note to Carlin Motorsport none weekend victories. |

LOLOLOL
And when Teixeira moved to Performance Racing, Noisy said that he moved to a better team. Wonder why Carlin didnt want Teixeira... There is another thing i cant understand. Noisy keeps saying that Teixeira will be in F1 in 2008 with Carlin. But he left Carlin... I still would like to know how much teixeira or sonangol pays noisy to write such pathetic posts. |

It appears that Noisy goes very quiet when the F3's are testing or racing! Is that pure coincidence?

My thought as well my friend!
Noisy has to either be Ricardo on a wind up or be someone closely connected to him that attends the races....we need a detective! |

<snip> - as the nice lady said, attack the post, not the poster.
you guys should see a press release from sonangol or ricardo manager or some sort where they pasted (yes, you read rigth, the pasted) a picture of angola flag over ricardo racing suit. you could clearly see that it was so pre-historic, made with windows paint or something. just to say that the "driver from angola" was looking for F1 with sonasol sponsorship. and the kid was born on my city (im portuguese) Last edited by bella; 18 Jul 2006 at 17:16. |
