However that will not stop the excitement of watching on our home track the Formula-one racing ."Buddh international Circuit at greater Noida is all set to flag off the GRAND PRIX on the 28th .

The field of competitors are broken into teams. with each team running two cars. Some are manufacturer's team and others are independent teams. The example of manufacturer(called constructors) in F 1 language are Honda, Renault,Toyota. The independent team imply that the entire car is manufactured except the engine, which is procured from major engine suppliers such as BMW, Mercedes and Honda. In either case the teams have to get the sponsorship from Global corporate giants who remain eager to get their logo in front of the world wide audience. The F1 team budget run into hundreds of millions of dollars.

The current participating teams are BMW, Ferrari, Renault, Mclaren,Toyota,Williams,
Red Bull, Honda, Aguri and Force India. Ferrari and Mclaren are the two top teams in the F1 circuit. Red Bull and Force India are relatively the new entrants.

Every team run two cars. The team creating is dynamic. One team mate is considered primary driver and other secondary driver.This is based on seniority and skill. By and large the team mate race against each other like any other competitors. Here is a quick listing of few Race drivers and the cars they will be driving...

DE LHI Gasping!!

Delhiites have turned   indifferent to the " Toxic Air" that they breath  They have stopped bothering about the "smoke screen " that is keeping away   "Sun light"  from giving them the ray of "HOPE"  to keep their lungs "Sun Shined" . Like "AGE"  for them now  even the  AQI (Air Quality Index) has become a sheer number .They have long since stopped reacting to the AQI  shooting up.
