Formula Woman - ITV1 Sunday 11th July

[delalio]

The start of the series shows an hour long introduction on the selection process, assesment days and finals week on ITV this Sunday with the British GP Coverage.

This should be very interesting TV! There was something in the Sunday Mirror about one of the final 16 drivers. Judgement day has arrived!

[delalio]

Yes! John, what are you doing watching daytime TV? They seem to cut her short! I thought Beverley Turner was excellent; I think she will have a few things to say about Formula Woman!

A TV chat show hosted by Matthew Wright of the Sun. It is on Monday to Friday 10 - 11 am on FIVE.

[jamesc]

I heard there was something about this in the Sunday Mirror. Did anyone read it or know what was it about?

[Simon.J]

What are you doing watching daytime tv James eh! Isnt it time you got a job?

Si

[PetrolTed]

James has a back injury - that's why he's at home.

[delalio]

Come on guys, less about JC, the topics about FW. It would be much more interesting to have a constructive debate about the formula. What are everyones predictions for the final round tomorrow at Brands and of the winners` award which is rumoured to be the biggest one ever awarded in motorsport?

Hi Amy,

I think you overlooked the final round is on the 25th July. Are there any names we should look for? In your opinion who should of been in the final 16? In your opinion what cars should the cars be driving and are the Mazdas up to spec? The commentator at Knockhill stated that the RX8s were quicker than the TVR Tuscans, is this true?

What are your opinions of the Trackday Queen?

As for the prize, a Mazda in the BTCC???

Can't see Natasha losing this! Too many questions!!!

[delalio]

yeh sorry JC wrong dates.

Double points will no doubt ensure Natasha takes the title, she`d have to go terribly wrong to loose it.

[jamesc]

I have just read Amy's posts here

Perhaps some PHer's could support her because from what I hear she deserves the chance. What a pity her Dad was not rich like some of the 16 who are in the Formula Woman competition.

Thanks James, despite how I might be portrayed in the ITV footage tomorrow, my sponsorship applications go out next week, Im hoping to secure a budget for a full season in 2005.
Ive not had confirmation about the article in the Independant but it has been suggested it is to be released to coincide with tomorrows television programme, this I hope, if it materialises, will be a positive?

[jamesc]

Hi Gaz,

Will you be watching the BAFTA winning programme tommorrow at 3.20pm on ITV?

[delalio]

Werent the minis faster than the FW girls...? Pretty mad suggestion that theyd be quicker than the Tuscan lads.

[sennafan]

Why double points at Brands? If anywhere it should have been at Cadwell as there was only one round there. The other race meetings have two rounds at each circuit and at the first two meeting, the same driver won both races.

I hope that in order to make it realistic each driver was required to have in their cars at least three pairs of shoes and a box of tissues on the parcel shelf

Hi Delalio,

Apart from your good self; who do you think should of been in the final 16? Karen Andrews, Emma haxby and Rachel Smith can all clearly drive. Is it because they were not jet pilots and opera singers they were rejected? I would also like your opinions of the following judges in view of being a racing driver.

1. Brian Jones

2. Gloria Budd

3 Tim Harvey

4 Ken Pollock

5 Graeme Glew

There is also the mystery of Katherine Legge; why did she walk out of the show?

Do you know anyone that has sung on the Formula Woman CD? (Gazboy wants a signed copy! not!) Rachel Kimber says she will have nothing to do with it.

Amy,

Did you sign the "official Secret Act" or any other sticky document? I believe some of the girls still have to sign.

And finally your opinions on this track day site!

www.trackdayqueen.com

Is this a joke???

regards

James
