This weekend is what I've been looking forward to for quite some time; the beginning of the 2011 F1 and Indycar seasons. Like I said previously, I'm going to try following Indycar this season so I'm all 'learned up' on the major players before the Baltimore Grand Prix; hopefully Simona is one of them. What better way to start off with Indycar than a close quarters race at one of the best street tracks in the US; the (closed off) public roads of St. Petersburg, Florida. And in the red corner, we have Formula 1 action in Australia. We'll see what McLaren has done with their aero package to help Hamilton and Button match up better with Ferrari and Redbull in the corners. We'll also see if Vettel has what it takes to defend the championship belt with a target on his back. Is old 'Shuey' going to have the car he needs to be competitive this year? Only time will tell. In the words of Bart Scott, CAN'T WAIT.
