If you haven't been watching formula one this season you are missing out, take the time to watch the race from Abu Dhabi this last weekend.... Holy cow was it good! Not quite Ayrton Senna good, but close.

Do they get sideways? are there jumps? Is Gronholm entered? How about Loeb?

Yes, Yes, No Gronholm but an ex-rallying Finn DID win, and there is a Sebastian with a different last name that is as awesomely fantastic as his rallying namesake.

Sideways - there have been some pretty lurid slides, particularly from Felipe Massa in India the weekend before last.
Jumps - OH HELL YES! See Rosberg Yumping over Karthikeyan below

No Gronholm but Kimi won.

And Sebastian Vettel. What a drive.
(Ok I will admit to being a MASSIVE Vettel fanboi!)

Kimi's post race interview was awesome!
F1 is boring. The only non-rally motorsport that I can really stand watching is Moto GP. Not that I watch either. Then again, I don't even watch WRC most of the time anymore.
