Are they any closer to actually constructing the track?
As i remember reading articles/reports about it back in 2012 and how they wanted to get it included in the '15 calendar but its been quiet ever since

Fascinating read from Ian Harrison, Senna's team manager at Williams, you'll need autosport plus access.

Ferrari are a bunch of morons when it comes to twitter, they really are.
First off, in Senna week, they tweet saying that Senna would have come and finished his career at them...

Then today, they do their usual 'it happened today' post of a race they won at Imola...

Needless to say, some of the replies from fans are brilliant. No wonder know one likes them.

Well that's rather poor form. Hope someone takes them to task over this in Spain.
Just finished watching "A winning partnership" on Sky and towards the end, when Ron Dennis was asked about the weekend when Senna lost his life, and for the first time ever I actually watched Ron struggle to hold back the tears and at that moment I actually felt ever so gutted for him. He always has had a steely armour and it was really refreshing to see him lay his emotion on the line. Kudos to him.
Agreed.
Quite revealing in places, if a masterclass in Ronspeak.
Recorded the F1 Legends one for watching later. Sky should have plenty of material with the previous interviews with Prost, Berger, Gordon Murray and Jo Ramirez.
Was it filmed in MTC do you know?

Reports coming in that Nigel Stepney, he of the Ferrari-McLaren 'Spy gate', has been kiled in a car accident.
RIP.

Autosport news item about it as well. He had a long and successful career in F1, it was a shame that it all shook out the way that it did. RIP.
Terrible news, just heard from JRM's FB page. I know he'd been instrumental in a lot of their achievements over the last few years.
Source?

Yes, I watched it last night.
Always interesting hearing Ron talk, but the guy interviewing him was a nob, kept looking away and at his notes/watch and blatantly was trying to rush through some questions.
Wouldn't have been surprised if Ron smacked him after

M20 and mowed down by a trunk not on the hardshoulder. Either stumbled or walked I to it. Not nice.
