    Spa may return, certainly Bernie had that in mind when he killed it. That way he could buy the rights. Which he is now trying to do.

    And Flavio can't understand why Ferrari is so fast in Barcelona considering the other Bridgestone teams are not. Funny.

    Now Latin America's Globo TV is stating the Kimi is in fact going to Ferrari in 2007. I am waiting for the National Enquirerer before I believe this story.

    Interesting articles...Flavio thought he had it all figured out, but he's learning that former champions don't just roll over and die. BTW, Rubens is also on Bridgestones in P5, so the tires can't be all bad.

    Still love that 512 BBi, though. I know the 288 GTO is the Ferrari muscle car of that era, but I've always been partial to yours instead (Although I like both cars) I like all of your car choices in fact (I have the previous generation A6 2.7t...love that car!)

    Thanks. BBi not close in performance to the 288, but for me anyway, the look it true classic Ferrari.

    I wonder if Bernie helped make the owners bankrupt so he could swoop in and buy the place. I hope the owners don't sell. I want them to save it so I can buy it. :D

    Bernie buying Spa might be neither here nor there. I believe he also owns Brands Hatch, but that never helped that GP to come back. Owning a racetrack can serve many purposes, doesn't necessarily have to be F1.
