Talladega Nights
I saw the new Will Ferrel movie, Talladega nights, the story of Ricky Bobby. The movie is pretty accurate in its physics and it makes fun of the nascar lifestyle because Ricky Bobby is a total dumbass and his friend Cal is also a dumbass. The French F1 racer Jean Girad is the antagonist who is gay (this is used for some pretty funny material) He and his husband Gregory live on a ranch with gay horses and they include some F1 footage (what looks like the williams car in front of the Renault (probably driven by Alonso) to make it look like he is great but it is probably being lapped by the Renault)and they have the commercials that parody the stuff that celebrities make including a japanese commercial where Ricky speaks in japanese and he sells a variety of other products including the official tampon of nascar.
I won't give away the rest of the story and the ending but it is pretty funny.
However, i wonder if some of the people who made the movie are on ultimatecarpage.com because they seem to view nascar the way some of the members view it as something inferior because they drive around in circles, i could easily do it, because the European guy can drink coffee and read and lead the race at the same time. Coincidence?
I'm dropping out to create a company that starts with motorcycles, then cars, and forty years later signs a legendary Brazilian driver who has a public and expensive feud with his French teammate.
