If it was just a picture of Bruno himself, dartboard.

But that one? Definitely wallpaper.

Wow..what a shot! :thumbup:


On the other hand, it's also a little depressing to be reminded of what we've 'progressed' beyond.

I'm still sore that Bruno gets to carry the #1. So I vote dartboard.

That's what I mean. Dartboard. :D
I don't like that #1 thing either, Wickerbill. I know the team earned it also, but he never drove the car that got Newman-Haas to the chamionship. The general spectator might think that he actually is the chamion. It's not fair to Cristiano da Matta. :flame:

Sorry to change the topic and go off on a tangent on this one...... ;)

I don't normally choose my wallpaper pics because of who's driving the car- I choose them because they are great photos, conversation starters (at my work computer) and because it makes me smile when I see my desktop. Bruno is a whiner, but that pic rocks so it's good enough for me. (No jokes about my low standards, please) :p

Well I certainly would never put a picture of Wankerdretti on my desktop just because it was a good picture. ;)
I know what you mean RaceGrrl...... Just teasing. :D

Big difference in the Bruno/Gilles pics. Bruno is crossed up in a bad way, Gilles in a good way. IMO. Dartboard it is.

Bruno carrying the #1 can't be any worse than Boesel carrying the #1 in 1996.. At least Bruno has won some races.. Even if he is a whiny little %$@!@#. Dartboard material.

Sorry, but I had a sudden desire to see that Gilles picture again, so this thread returns to the top for all to enjoy. :)

The two pictures are not even close. Gilles was one of the best ever.

That's why I said "big difference" as in "not even close".

I was agreeing with you, disagreeing with M3.

Tough room when people get upset at people who agree with them.

Unlike Raul, atleast Bruno is making a run at the Title.

I will note wallpaper for both pic, I like the N-H paint schemes and well what can be said about the other it is Gilles

Almost.

A graphic demonstration of why Villeneuve is a legend despite a short career and no championship. He was more entertainment than the rest of the field put together. Car control defined.

"That's exactly right"
Gilles did it on purpose, Bruno just lost it. Dartboard.

ps: That IS Long Beach, isn't it?

If it's only a little depressing, you are made of much tougher stuff than I...

In FRANKY's picture I swear it looks as if he's planning on continuing to push in defiance of the tire's condition. As if he's offended that it had the nerve to blow out on him.

He was--probably the fastest man on three wheels. I don't know if it was the race depicted in the photo, but he ran nearly an entire lap that way at a remarkably quick pace.
