Can't wait for the season to kick off...
For Obvious reasons, I hope Fernando Alonso wins a couple of more races this year. He is not ready yet to aim at the tiltle, Renault cars can't compete yet with Ferrari's, BMW, or mercedes....

I don't mind if Fernando wins some races, as long as Kimi wins the title and Schumacher doesn't.
He was so close last year with that inferior car.....

That's true! I hope this is the season of R?ikk?nen's. as long as Schumi doesn't take it, it's fine by me
and it's very highly thought that Heidfeld will be in Jordan in this season. he already gave his test drive to the sponsors which will choose one of the two Jordan drivers.

Looks like Jos Verstappen might drive for Jordan in 2004.
He's got a sponsor, Trust, and Jordan probably needs the money.

VERSTAPPEN BREAKS OFF JORDAN TALKS
Last Updated: Tuesday, 27 January , 2004, 14:50
Jos Verstappen has called off negotiations with Jordan about a drive for 2004.
The move puts an end to the Dutchman?s hopes of driving in Formula 1 this year.
Verstappen?s advisors last Friday gave Jordan an ultimatum to clarify whether they wanted to do a deal.
The deadline passed without a response from Jordan and the Dutch have now decided to end the talks.
Verstappen told his website: "We all did our very best to come to an agreement. But at the current time it's not useful to continue with the negotiations.
?Again, I want to say that we have a fantastic group of people around us, especially Michel Perridon from Trust, who did his best to get to a positive outcome.
?We broke the negotiations with Jordan with the support of all the sponsors involved."
Of all the candidates for the Jordan drives, Verstappen appeared to be the one with the most financial backing so it will be interesting to see what the team?s next move is.
Allan McNish has been linked with the job while 2003 driver Ralph Firman has spoken of his determination to continue.
The team tested Nick Heidfeld, Timo Glock and Bas Leinders at Barcelona last week.

Hopefully the silver arrows will be better than last year and that the driver who came in 2nd place will get higher up in the championship.

DENNIS CALMS FEARS
Last Updated: Friday, 27 February , 2004, 15:02
Despite recent concerns aired by Kimi Raikkonen, Ron Dennis reckons the team are ready for 2004.
Earlier this week Raikkonen startled the F1 world by saying he didn?t think the McLaren would last the distance Down Under.
That was just days after the Finn requested more power from his Mercedes engine.
But now team boss Ron Dennis paints a different picture and believes the team is on schedule and that a win in Melbourne is on the cards.
It is becoming increasingly difficult to suss just who is telling the truth over at Woking.
Dennis told the team website: "The 2004 season is shaping up quite well. We've done a fair amount of testing which has not been without problems, but that's what testing is for.
"Most of the time we've been pretty competitive, but, of course, you just don't know how strong your opposition is at this stage. However things have moved in the right direction and we are quietly comfortable with our progress."
But the water is no clearer after such comments for in fact winter testing has proved to be particularly inconsistent for McLaren.
December went well but the new year brought reliability issues and quick times from rivals Ferrari and McLaren.
But even if McLaren don?t perform well next weekend, Dennis is confident that the team?s development programme will soon overcome any initial problems.
He added: "We've got an extremely intensive development programme which will unfold during the course of the next few months which will hopefully, provide us with added competitiveness.
"If we can build on a strong performance in Australia, great. If we are somewhat behind in Australia it will certainly give us some confidence that we'll move ahead, because, we are constantly working hard in pushing performance."

NEW FOR 2004
Formula 1 is back - and with it comes a raft of regulation changes, new races and some unfamiliar faces.
To clear up any confusion, here is your one-stop guide to the new F1 season...
RACE WEEKENDS
Format
2004 sees more changes to the weekend format after a shake-up following the 2002 season.
Gone is private testing on Friday. Instead the bottom six teams will be allowed to run three cars in two hour-long practice sessions.
Also out is the Friday qualifying session. Replacing it is a 90-minute session split into two with just two minutes between each session. The first session follows the same format as the previous Friday qualifying: drivers will run in the finishing order of the last race (Suzuka 2003 for Melbourne 2004). This session determines the running order of the second session with the slowest driver going first.
With just two minutes separating each session those teams at the bottom, or any drivers who make a mess of the first session, will find themselves with just a few minutes to prepare for the season all-important session that determines Sunday?s grid positions.
Teams like Minardi will therefore find themselves having to re-fuel and decide on their race strategy within minutes while the top teams like Ferrari will have much longer to go through the options.
Just like last year, when the drivers have completed their second qualifying run their cars will be impounded in parc ferme until Sunday morning.
Calendar
The F1 calendar has been extended to 18 races (there were 16 in 2003). Back is the drivers? favourite Spa after a year-off and joining the calendar are two new venues in Bahrain (4 April) and China (26 September).
TECHNICAL
The One Engine Rule
The biggest change to this year?s technical regulations is the introduction of longer-life engines.
Put simply, a driver must use the same engine from the start of Friday practice to the end of the race.
Should he need a change at any point during the weekend, he will be penalised. If the change is made before qualifying, he will be dropped 10 places down the grid, after qualifying and he will have to start from the very back.
The change effectively means the lifespan of an F1 engine has been doubled from around 250 miles to nearer 500 miles.
Most engine manufacturers have managed to incorporate the changes into their existing engine architecture but Renault have decided to axe their revolutionary wide-angle power unit in favour of a more conventional layout.
Needless to say, the new regs are bound to play into the hands of those teams with good reliability records ? such as Ferrari who did not suffer a single engine failure in a race last year.
Aerodynamics
The changes made to aerodynamics for 2004 are generally designed to increase sponsor visibility rather than curb performance.
The minimum sizes for the engine cover and rear wing endplates have been increased, giving teams more space to plaster their backers? logos across the cars.
One other change has been made to the aero regs - the number of rear wing elements that teams are allowed to run has been reduced from three to two.
Electronics
Launch control has been banned, a move that is likely to cost Renault most dearly as their system was widely regarded as the best in the pitlane last year.
Automatic gearshifting has also been outlawed, meaning drivers must now change up and down manually.

doesn't look too good for Maclaren, although I believe they are with one pits stop strategy as a few drivers/teams in front of them are with 2 pits stop strategy.

Sad to see McLaren being that slow and unreliable.
They have a lot of work to do if they're gonna win any races this year.

Malasia Grand Prix.
Schumi won again...
Alonso finished 7th. Awful Renault strategy though, Alonso started 19th and just a little bit over 3 laps he was already in the money ( 8th).

it seems to me that we are going to have a pooring season with Schumacher's supremacy...where's McLaren??
but then again..got to give the credit for Ferrari and Schumacher..don't blame them for working hard and for making Ferrari the number one team again..good job guys! Well, the season ain't f?rbi yet..so everything is possible. I hope Williams take their place for making the competition harder 'cause it seems that McLaren hasn't abilities to give any competition during this season. (I hope I'm wrong though. Could McLaren be a Fenix-bird?

The "new" car just isn't good enough. It's unreliable and the engine is too weak, runnability is good though. Kimi has said that all the effort is directed for development of the new car..they don't race for the championship anymore.

Why doesn't this guy retire?? What could possibly be his motivation. Or,he coud take a real challenge and do like Rossi did in the Moto GP: go to an inferior team and try to prove wrong everyone that says that the team is the real race winner

Schumi's now won how many titles? 6? I don't know how this guy keeps motivating himself. Every race this year has followed the same pattern; pole positon for Schumi, victory for schumi...I'm not talking 'bout close victories, such victories have come with 15 second margin over the runner up. Way too easy for him...
He should sign for Minardi next year.

And it wasn't just thanks to overtaking others because of his pit stop strategy, he overtook people on the track!

FORD PULL THE PLUG ON JAGUAR
Jaguar will disappear from F1 at the end of the year after Ford put the team up for sale.
Ford have also put engine supplier Cosworth on the market, threatening Jordan and Minardi.

Kimi managed to win a race in his car which isn't a Ferrari, BAR or Renault...
So don't say Renault is that bad. Sure it's not as good as the red cars but which car is?
Kimi was 2nd in the qualifying for the Chinese GP. Hopefully his car will make it all the way through the race.

It would be nice to see Jaques back if he hadn't come back the way he has. What can Briatoire be thinking firing Jarno Trulli?! Trulli's 10x better than Alonso, he even won a GP this season, Alonso has not. It'll be good to see Jaques in a Sauber next season though.

Trulli won in Monaco where you don't need the fastest car to win. That proves that Renault is lacking in speed this year.
In Fernando's defence, he's had some bad luck (not as much as Kimi who's the unlyckiest driver in F1 this season), but still. He retired in Belgium when he was leading the race etc.

You gotta be kidding me???
Did you watch any of the races this year?
Just because Trully won't a race this year doesn't make him a better pilot than Fernando. Alonso won a race last year and Trulli didn't. I may be a little biased cause I'm spanish, but even the other drivers; Schummi, Montoya, Barrichelo...beleive the future of F1 is in the hands of Kimmi and Alonso.
Trully hasn't resigned. He's signed with Toyota. Not the most competitive team.? If he was a better driver than Alonso, He wouldn't have had the boot as he had.
Alonso was leading in Beligium and also Monza ( I'm not too sure about this) when his car broke down on him.
Alonso and Kimmi have been very unlucky this year. If I'm not mistaken, both have finished the same amount of races.

NEW QUALIFYING FORMAT CONFIRMED
Formula 1 will have a new qualifying format next season, it has been confirmed.
The grid will now be decided by the aggregate of a driver's times from two single-lap sessions, due to take place on Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning.
The Saturday session, with cars going out in the order in which they finished the previous race, will see cars running light on fuel.
However, drivers will have to carry their race fuel in the Sunday morning session.
BAR team boss David Richards said: "On the Saturday you will see who is the fastest car on that particular track.
"I think it adds another dimension to Sunday morning. It will be worth getting to there early."
However, FIA president Max Mosley said that the revised format did not mean that F1 would be switching to two-day race weekends next season.
He said: "Friday practice will be exactly as it is now, nothing changes."

No way Trulli is a better driver than Alonso. Just check the final standings of this year /eevn though trulli signed with toyota) and the past one. And like a fellow spaniard has stated, ALL the F1 Circus believes a lot more in Alonso's posibilities.
