Scott speed, the only American presently in F1 has been let go by Torro Rosso effective immediatley.Sebastian Vettel, a test driver for BMW, but also a Red Bull sponsored driver, will take over for Speed at Torro Rosso. Just proves that unless it's all right turns, the Americans can't drive. :lol: No offence menat to our American members. :D

It doesn't surprise me Speed wasn't just another rookie to come out of the F1 feeder system in Europe. Speed came out of the Red Bull program that was set up in the US a few years ago he was supposed to be good but hasn't shown any promise and now his blow up with Gerhard Berger the Team Principal at Torro Rosso hasn't made him any friends.

Torradan would show them how to drive. After all, he has a real car. :ph34r: :ph34r:

I think you might be thinking of Michael Andretti, Scott actually got around the 1st corner.

You mean all left turns, as American ovals tracks are all run counter-clockwise whereas F1 tracks with both left and right turns are usually run clockwise.
