Will every F1 related topic in the Motorsport Forum going back to 20XX be transferred in here now?

Is this now the forum for current F1 only or will historic F1 and pre F1 era Grand Prix discussion be allowed in here too?
We'll move some stuff over as time allows...but in the meantime chat about what you like that is F1 related smile

Ooh, new n shiny place for a blether.

The irony is, F1 gets its own section, just as everyone is decrying the dull levels increasing in the sport.

2014 should be ace though, still cant wait for my fave manufacturer to come back HONDA!

Bring on the vacuum cleaner engine o doom!

I agree - but once PH Towers makes a decision, they never turn back.

Could it possibly be that some people, who are not into F1, have requested there be a separate section so that all the F1 posts be filtered out?

I have no idea if that's the case or not.

It was mentioned on rare occasions in the past but there wasn't a particular outcry for a "We want F1 to be treated separately to the rest of motorsport" forum.

Why what. Make this change? If so I would agree? Why?
That.

It's a stupid idea to separate F1 from General Motorsport.

It's a good idea at times general motorsport was full with f1 topics which meant threads about other motorsport often got ignored. Now general motorsport will have more well general motorsport and the f1 geeks get to cry about why vettel isn't as good as Alonso or why webbers car keeps on breaking down or the is one driver better than another st while everyone else doesn't have to read it.

If football is separate from sport than f1 can be separate from general motorsport.

Why?

What is "General Motorsport" anyway?

I cannot see the logic in having a separate Formula 1 discussion section and then another "lumpen" forum for all the remaining categories of motorsport.

I think it is a total, crying shame, that this has happened.

Isn't it always the "segregationists" who despise one group who seem to like this "hiving off" of discussion.

"I think all "football fans" are idiots so they are better off with their own forum instead of polluting our more intelligent discussion".

Perhaps Garlick could weigh in here as to the rationale for the change?
