[davewilson]

I have a few contender's but it is a waste of space doing polls on this site because no one ever votes!

None of them are 'nice'. The nastier ones tend to be the best (Shumacher for example). The last nice guy I can think of in F1 was Jonny Herbert.

   Guess who's nasty depends on which team you
   pull for.I like Renault and Flavio can be pretty
   nasty at times

   Have to agree with you Stig,sometimes when
   you post it makes you wonder if anybodies
   out their.What makes a forum grow is member
   participation

1. Bernie Ecclestone
2. Ron Dennis

Member participation has always been a problem for me ever since I started this site. We have nearly 1,000 registered members and countless guests or 'forum lurkers' as some people call them.

Unfortunately it is easy to watch and enjoy the forum without taking part. ANY suggestions to encourage member participation would greatly appreciated. What made you guys take part?

    I visit brcause I like to see how people
    around the world are[mostlyGreat Britain here]
    I visit 2 f1 sites and this is by far the most
    friendly,no fighting or unkind remarks.This
    site has so much potential that it's a shame
    there isn't as much participation.Maybe when
    the racing season starts things will pick up.

                                  Best regards Dare

It great that the site has a friendly feel to it and I know things will get busier when the season begins again.

It's only the true fans that keep up to speed with everything during 'closed season' so give yourselves a pat on the back.

   To me Theissen and Ron Dennis would
   fill the bill quite nicely.And from what
   I've read of Sato he seems not so nice.
   
   Ralph S gets a lot of bad press,but he
   always appears nice when Peter Windsor
   interviews him on Speed[channel not pills]

   Windsor was walking down gris before a
   race and remarked there/s Flavio he hates
   being bothered so let's go interview him

[Wizzo]

I think it's amazing that anybody has the time for an interview before or during an F1 race, and the fact they are civil is doubly amazing.

Its about the only sport I can think of where its possible. You wouldn't ask a 100 meter sprinter for an interview while he or she is on the starting blocks would you?

[davewilson]

I agree Wizard.
But i feel that Teams and the FIA,owe fans so much more than they give.Everything is so Hush Hush that it has become a boring subject to report, because there is nothing coming out anywhere.
Information is as rare as Rocking Horse MUCK And if something does come out it is from a leaked source or a driver with a grudge.I understand that this is a very Competative Sport.But a few genuine comments and views would help fans to get a little picture into the closed shop of F1,who they rake millions off year to year

Just climb over the fence like they all do for the Australian GP..!

Are you kidding??.......I'm not crazy, the victorian police are the most violent in Australia, they are worse than the LAPD, they once shot a guy on a beach for not putting down a knife, who knows what they would do to a fence jumper.......

Romephius:
Not worth the risk.I thought it was all cushy in Australia.I have relations in Western Australia and she works for the flying doctor services, and says it is the best move they ever made
