Since I was ten years old and that was some time ago let me tell you. :drink:
It was ground breaking when the 1st rear motor F1 hit the track way back.
It didn't take long for everyone else to smarten up real fast.

I've been following it ever since I can remember.
Obviously when I was really little I watched it because my father did, but then I started liking it more than he did.
So, yeah.. 15-20 years.. assuming I didn't watch it until I was 2 years old.

I just started last year after seeing richard hammond drive a renualt, and instantly fell in love with the engineering and fine details.

I live in the great state of texas and am looking forward to the texas GP (not US GP).

This is my first post and i am excited to contribute to the forum

I followed Jacques Villeneuve over from CART, so I think that would make my first year 1996. I watched a little in '95 when I found out he was moving and then became crazy about the sport after he made the jump. I think in 15 years, I've missed maybe 2-3 races due to circumstances beyond my control.

Nothings being held against you, my meaning was that firsthand experience means more than reading or whatching reruns or short clips. How many times do you hear "Oh dude I read about that and it was bogus" and then you can say "Well frankly I witnessed it firsthand and your just a tad off" or "this is really what/how it happened". :wink:
