Evolution of Formula 1 Car

Formula 1, it was one of my favourite sport for a few years. Until I found out it is way too time consuming for me. I wonder how I wasted a few hours every few weeks starring at the TV screen, watching a bunch of cars driving down the circuit in one direction only, over and over again for at least 40 or 50 rounds. That did not improved my driving skill at all. It is better to watch WRC, it is more to daily driving, if you are always off-road kind of driver. :P

Anyway, someone created this video about evolution of Formula 1 Car. Starting from 1950 until 2012. The top left is how the steering wheel looks like, just beside to the steering wheel is the number of pistons (or the type of engine: V6, V8, V12, V whatever).



Finish watching? Get back to work now! Today is Friday and pretty sure you have some due dates to meet. :P
Have a nice weekend btw.

Your surname/last name/family name is invalid!

I was Formula1 (F1) fan some time back, recently few years was very boring, super boring (prove: I fall asleep for a few times while watching it, okay?). This year with some rules changed, I would think it will be exciting again. Anyway, I always keep up with the development with F1 by subscribe to F1 official website. I received email from the website during weekend that ask me to re-register for news update and/or live timing access for 2010 season. So here I go to the register page.

Okay, fill up first name, it check for validity, okay, normal. Next fill up last name, what? My last name is invalid? I have been using my last name since my birth, now you tell me it is invalid?


Okay, I tried other name then. HoHo is valid, huh is valid, even number is valid! And Monkey for first name is valid!



For your information, there are a lot of surname/last name/family name with 2 letters only, see google answers.
