Ben,
Really great shots. Let's just hope that Michael Schumacher has one of
those kind of years and someone else can win the championship this
year...Montoya maybe?

Please tell me what brand vehicles those are in shot 011.
Mike

Brilliant, Ben! Any chance of full size copies of 014 and 022?

I'd love to come to Oz for a GP, but it's expensive from the UK
(especially from Scotland as there's often an Edinburgh-London travle cost
to add). Maybe one year, though.....

Cheers,
David
