really excited for this year but not a kimi fan



side notes on some goings on in the off season

Kubica re-broke his leg he slipped on some ice... doesn't seem like he'll ever be back to F1

and

Sutil's trial is starting next Monday for "glassing" the Genii CEO, with a broken champagne bottle, @ a club in China (after the grand prix), Hamilton is meant to be a witness but says he cant make it

So jealous...if I were you I'd probably skip Valencia, kinda boring lol and Monaco is one of the more expensive GPs, gonna be hard to get decent tickets lol.

Spa + Hokkenheim =

Thanks for the tip in Valencia, it's kind of far too... Hockenhiem is about 2.5 hours by train, Monaco about 5 and Spa is pretty close as well, just east of Cologne and about 6 hours by train. I have a possible hook up for tickets to the Monaco GP, we'll see if that actually pans out though.

Decent tickets for Hockenheim are about 200eur for the weekend. Not bad if you ask me....

Definitely go to Spa. I went last year and had an amazing time, despite Hamilton crashing out (huge Hamilton fan). Wear comfortable shoes because you'll be doing a lot of walking and wear clothes that will keep you dry, since the weather is very unpredictable, but it makes the races fun!

F1 driver Sutil is to stand trial
F1's Sutil may face legal action

German Formula 1 driver Adrian Sutil has been convicted of causing grievous bodily harm to a F1 team owner and given an 18-month suspended sentence.

A court in Munich reached the verdict after a two-day trial. The German driver was also ordered to pay a 200,000 euro (£167,224; $264,092) fine.

Renault F1 executive Eric Lux suffered cuts during the incident in a Shanghai nightclub last April.

Sutil, aged 29, has already apologised over the incident.

Both he and Mr Lux were among guests at a party to celebrate Lewis Hamilton's victory at the China Grand Prix in the Chinese city.

The Renault team has since been renamed Lotus.

Sutil was a driver for the Force India team, but they have announced Nico Hulkenberg will replace him.
