Red Bull Buys Back Its Share in Toro Rosso

Posted on 11.25.08 | Andy No Comments

It looks like ol’ Berger wont be the head man over at Toro Rosso anymore according to SPEED.  Recently Mr. Mateschitz (CEO of Red Bull) bought back the 50% stake in the Toro Rosso team that was once owned by Gerhard Berger.  With Gerhard out of the mix some think this might result in a major shake up within the team and some have even suggested that they might invite Scott Speed back across the pond (not bloody likely).  All that is known currently is that its still in Mateschitz’ long term plan to eventually sell the team off again.  Seriously, this team has been passed around more than a wizard shaped bong at a frat party.

Cool Video: F1 Singapore GP Simulation

Posted on 09.18.08 | Andy 1 Comment

The first ever night-time Formula 1 race in Singapore is coming up next weekend and I’m extremely excited about it!  Imagine my giddy-ness when I found this video on SPEED’s website.  It’s a CG simulation of one lap on the street circuit with Red Bull Racing driver Mark Webber narrating the keys to each section of the track.  Turn the volume up for this one.
