A few years ago I got really bored with F1 but these last two years have been superb.

Lewis has made it worth wathing again.

What do you think.

Lewis Hamilton has made the sport interesting in Britain again.

Anyone know how much each F1 stage programme goes for?

Are they valuable to collect like for Hamilton's championship win in Brazil for instance?

love F1 though only been a F1 fanatic for 3 or 4 years watched it for 10-12. When i go melbourne i wanna go round the track Very Happy

What your views on this new system where if you win more races than opponents you win the title?

Think it's a daft idea.
I don't think it will make the guys at the front try to overtake any more or less than they do alraedy.
But from around 6th downward there will be no point trying to risk overtaking, as what will be the point of risking everything when you're not going to get into 3rd. Because under this system only 1st 2nd and 3rd will get any rewards.

Plus it mucks all the records up and makes it harder to compare winners from different eras.

It would be the same if some idiot decided to rename all the leagues in football.

Oh wait the idiots have already done it.

I have collected F1 programmes for some years, but stopped in 2004 when they decided to make all progs look nearly the same. Also the postal costs when ordering these "books" let me think twice if this part of my collection was worth it to be continued.

I put my german F1 progs on my homepage but never made it to do so with the issues from other circuits. In the meantime I have sold most of the european programmes. Especially Monaco 60´s and 70´s went for extremly good prices on e**y.

if you are interested on some cover scans for german GP have a look here
