Yes, very interesting.

Opel has dropped out in past couple years.

BMW never in, the chickens.

Not diesels.

Kinda like a German IROC.....

I know that there are no Diesels.....the cars are limited in HP, by restricting air intake....I think.....

Yup, Opel dropped out, but I have read that Alfa is going to join up....so it may well become an event with multinational events and equipment....

And...yup BMW are chicken.....but, I think BMW was around when they created the series.....

f1 is awesome!, how cool would it bee if they made a diesel f1 car, u know they actuallyhad to redisign the entire air intake because the engines are pulling in air at the speed of sound, they rev to like 20,000rpm, now thats what i call a bad ass car!
