    I just received it today. Got it from Amazon for only $16.

    It is a 2 disc set. The default format is wide screen (NICE!). The resolution is pretty good (depends on the race), sounds is pretty disappointed (2 channels). But seeing kubica crash on DVD is so much more realistic than on the TV.

    The menu sux - still the same style menu as the 03 one. Very boring.

    I own several DVD's from previous years and my only thought is that the video quality is quite bad, but anyhow we don't have a choice. :(

    Anyone know if there will be HD videos for F1 anytime soon?

    Last time I heard is there is not HD broadcast in the near future - so there will be no HD on DVD, etc.

    It's hard to believe though - nowadays all the sports are broadcas in HD except F1.

    It must be a crazy to watch it live. I am going to Montreal GP this year and hopefully I will see some actions at this corner.

    Nice camera by the way - I will see if I can get a HD camcorder to tape it.

    Nice, now we are talking the same language. :) Man, how good was it to see him walk away from that?!! MS Monza 03 turn one and two at about 80mph. Canon 1Ds and 35-350L. Old lens but still one of my favs. :) Taken at about 100m.

    I was sitting in section 15 as well, saw the whole thing. My pics are on my laptop at home and my camera sucked but seeing it in the raw was insane. It's like time slowed down, pretty chilling. I almost slapped the woman next to me who started screaming "oh my god, he's dead, he's dead" *****, wait to see if he gets up first
