There is some heavy (kind of funny and crazy) stuff going on between two teammates (Hamilton / Rosberg) that F1 fans and the international media cannot stop talking about.
Next F1 race is in Canada. Sparks will fly, again, between Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg. One of these drivers will most likely win the Formula One World Drivers' Championship in November.
F1 schedule have 19 races per year.
The terminology is interesting and not hard to learn –
‘Team Orders:’ There is always a plan before and during a race between team owners and teammates.
One example: ‘Hold Station’ which has been banned from Formula 1 early 2000. However, it is still used today – Although, it is worded differently over the radio. Those words are supposed to determine winners or position on the track between teammates for various reasons.
Teams usually hire a No. 1 and No. 2 drivers to pilot their machines. Nevertheless, when a team hires two No. 1 drivers, it is pure drama on and off the track.
I believe the way to be hooked in motorsports is getting to know the stories about the drivers.

Got any recommended links for F1 411?
I like watching, but never know when they're on. I think David Hobbs would be a great person to meet at a pub somewhere. It's worth watching an entire broadcast just to hear him say "he's done blowed up."
