To keep up to date with the latest from Paul-Henri, you can find The Cahier Archive on Facebook - where he's just posted several classic and personal photographs - thank you again for supporting our sponsors.
In addition to the support we've received from Paul-Henri and Terry, we've been lucky to connect with local F1 enthusiasts and professionals, and recently a small gathering took place at Force India Formula 1 founder Vijay Mallya's private car collection located in the Bay Area. Curated by Malcolm Page, the collection allowed a few of our members to get a close look at some very important cars, and it is hoped that in the future group visits will take place in a purpose-built museum not far from the Golden Gate bridge.
As this museum project moves along on the wheels of public planning and local politics, you're invited to join a group on Facebook to register your support for a more permanent home for this impressive collection - photos from the collection and a link to the group are available here. A special thanks again to Malcolm for his time and interest in local Formula 1 groups. We have been working on more visits to collections and events of interest - so stay tuned, and look forward to seeing you at the races!

Among the new teams who will be on the grid in 2010, one you've heard of has been re-introduced - Lotus racing.

Next weekend's season finale will also be featuring Gil deFerran's last turn around a racecourse as a driver, as well as an appearance by Jim Hall, racing innovator, F1 driver, and legendary race car builder.

We look forward to seeing everyone at the races . . . and have a look at this interesting article covering a 'McNish moment' at Suzuka.
