For you F1 fans, the BMW Sauber F1 Team is launching its 2008 challenger live on the team's website, www.bmw-sauber-f1.com. The unveiling happens Monday, January 14 from 12:00 to 12:30 CET. BMW Sauber driver Nick Heidfeld has played down the team's title chances; nevertheless, BMW finished second in last year's Constructor's Championship (due to the exclusion of McLaren), and nearly doubled the next constructor's total. This is also one of the cars that current World Champion Kimi Raikkonen said he would be looking out for. BMW has climbed the charts without a superstar driver, which makes one think, to paraphrase Mars Blackmon, "It's gotta be the car."

Actually, Robert Kubica who drives for BMW has been up on the pole positions, and during a couple of races even led the race... But everytime that happened the car broke down... Either way very cool, this is only BMW's 2nd season?

* Actually did you see Kubica's crash at 300 Km/H? And he walked away!!! The extra safety measures for 2007 contributed to his survival & added 8 KG to the car. I dont thing we would be that safe at 30 Km/H! What say we add 8 KG to production cars to make them that safe?! FIA.COM

I don't follow F1, but I'd like to take this opportunity to dub the above pictured BMW-Sauber F1 cars as, "The Flying Nuns." You can probably see why...
