Alonso's final lap in Malaysia . . .
. . . and the show goes on!
For the next race we're going to be watching a LIVE broadcast from China this Saturday - pre-race at 11:30pm - at San Francisco at Zeke's Diamond Bar. (RSVP) This event will fill up the venue and seats go quickly - (video from the Australian GP - packed!) so join us early for racing from Shanghai with a pint of your favorite brew on tap. Food is served on the weekends at Zeke's, and we're working with their staff on a kitchen closing time.
Vettel finishes and comes out on top . . .
. . .and McLaren backs off their plans for an adjustable ride height for their cars.
Renault and Russia's first F1 driver Petrov kept things interesting for Lewis . . .
. . . and Paul Henri was there to share all the details:
Thanks again to our friend Paul-Henri Cahier for these great images from the
racing in Malaysia two weekends ago - we'll be raffling the bottom three during the races this Saturday night thanks to Terry Griffin of Griffin Motorwerke.
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!
