    So Richard Branson is backing ex Honda team Brawn Racing

    Big mix up in the cars all change and now new faces, might even watch, shame I’m down in Oz and I’m not going to get the fleetwood mac intro 🙁

    Yep, the BrawnGP car now has a little virgin logo on the side and a few red bits.
    I’m so looking forward to this season. The grid looks like it’s been reversed from last year and shuffled around a bit.

    Qualifying is just starting, so I’ll get back to my tea and toasted cheese muffin.

    Go BrawnGP! 🙂

    does Eddie not like Coulthard? 🙂

    Isn’t Eddie short!

    Maybe he has angry little man syndrome.

    I think that Eddie may become an irritant.

    Honda must be kicking themselves after paying for the development of the car.

    highlights were good. the commentator who wasn’t on ITV last year was awful though…

    That’s funny. Everyone hated James Allen (the ITV bod) now he’s missed. Jonathan Ledgard was poo mind. Brundle was good as was Coultard and the new poncy bloke. Please drop Eddie Jordan (from a great height), he was/is a pain. Which is best; Coultard or Jordan? There’s only one way to find out…. That’s it David, punch his lights out 😉

    Commentary starts at 6:00am, though I wish they would give the actual race start time.

    Remember the clocks go forward tonight too.

    I got a bit excited there! At each ad break they used to play the chorus of Rocket by Def Leppard.

    I think someone on the radio this morning said it was 7.00?

    It’s been said before but my God, some of those cars are hideous. Force India and the Renault seem to have been designed with pencils cut from the ugly tree. A lot of them (the Brawn for example) remind me of GP2/F2/F3000/F.Nippon cars.

    Go Button, been struggling with second rate machinery for too long.

    lets hope Button wins… He certainly deserves it.

    Hamilton will be starting from the back. Sounds like the Gbox is banjaxed.

    Rumours are that Branson will be buying into the team within the next 2-4 weeks… So Button and Rubens might be riding in a Virgin! 🙄

    Yep, about time he had a chance to do something and I reckon he’ll grab it with both hands.

    Brawn GP sounds crap. They should just rework the name slightly, and then they could attract seafood production companies to sponsor them. Would actually go down really well in Oz, too.

    Sorry don’t know what happened there!

    What I meant to say was BrawnGP should sack their graphics fella – the spacing between the R and A is awful!!

    the brawn car looks like it has lego colours to me

    Probly waiting for some proper sponsorship so left the car as a blank canvas.

    I remember someone saying last year that this years hondas (Braun) were going to be something quote special.

    Not sure the British public will get behind Jenson in the same way as Lewis as Jenson has abit of the posh brit syndrome similar to what old Tiger Tim Henman had.

    Tip – Don’t enter ‘virgin’ as the serach in google images when the kids are about. Bit of a ‘moment’ there!

    Just did (for scientific reasons ;¬)). Surely some mistake as most of them were not virgins.
