What other sports do you follow? was created by admin
I would like to know what other sports (Not Bodybuilding) you like playing/competing in or just like watching on TV?

I'm a big fan of motor sport, I think it is because I grew up in the veld when my dad used to race in off roads.

But my main sport of interest is Formula 1...

Not sure how long the sport will survive with mad Max Mosley as FIA president and greedy midget Bernie Ecclestone.

I love my F1 as well.

I support either a German driver or car. No specific team .
Even thought I do like Meclaren.

Rugby is good as well , but only if its a international game with SA.

My sports would be:
F1
Rugby
Ice Hockey
Boxing
Mixed martial art
Rally

I only sports I did was Ice Hockey and boxing .

Never fraternize with them as equals, never accept them as your social equals or they will devour you, they will destroy you.

Hi Guys,
Love F1 and Ferrari although they are losing the plot somehow, but will bounce back.....For 20 years never missed a race.
My true love for sport is the following:
Rugby - Blue Bulls + Springboks(Never miss a game at Loftus and on TV)
Cricket - ODI's, T20, IPL
All motorsport incl. MotoGP, Superbikes and MX.
Baseball - played for 10 years, but too old now.:blush:

If everybody does it, is it still cheating?

Yeah, love that as well. I also liked to watch weightlifting during the Olympics.

As for the current status in F1... I think Brawn GP's winning will come to an end this weekend as the other big teams also added double diffusers to their cars. The Ferrari F60B will also be used and I hope it has more down force and better reliability regarding KERS.

Found an exclusive photo of the new F60B "double decker":

I've played many sports through school but took up gym once I had finished.

I like watching Golf, Rugby and X-Games sports and have a few mates who are REALLY good at squash.
Quite like watching squash live... it get's quite intense especially at SA level.

Soccer i can understand hating, esp when you see the local dicks with 2 left legs, but when you watch some1 like messi in form, thats just art! As for rugby, dude, come on, what a rush! Testosterone fueled, massive strong muscled brutes attacking the hell out of each other! I will never forget james small smashing lomu in 95, thats when i really started enjoying rugby!

Bro, how does that sound... :P It's a joke so please don't take offense. There is a place for all sports... hell even Jacob Zuma plays monopoly...

F1 is about technology and you have to follow it behind the scenes to understand what happens on Sunday when they race... F1 cars feature the most advance technology the human race have come up with. A 2.4L engine is 700-750Hp. Brakes operates between 600 to 1000`C and they don't work if they are cold. Tyres operate between 60 and 80'C or they don't have grip. KERS recovers wasted energy from the brakes and stores it in batteries up to 500V and adds 80hp to the cars for 6 secs per lap. F1 cars have so much down force they can drive upside down at 120Km/h. Most engines can save fuel and keep temp down by switching from V8 to V4 configuration.

I can go on for days, but if you don't like it don't say its useless...
