    F1 2012

    I remember Adelaide '91 well. I started watching F1 in 1991, so I assumed those sorts of conditions were fairly normal. Looking back now I can see how wrong I was!

    Where is your local station?

    Hi everyone, this is my first post here! I live pretty much halfway between Patchway and Bristol Parkway. Patchway is on the South Wales Main Line and consists of two platforms, each with a small bus shelter, and a footbridge. It's served by one train per hour in each direction, one heading...
