    Oyh the translation is bad... Here is something that makes more sense.


    ""7 o'clock start on the track. We all get fire-retardant suits, gloves, balaclava (the mask under the helmet), earplugs, and helmet. There's about 20 of us, and everyone has everything in their size. It's a rather comically tingly experience to wear fire-retardant, branded clothing. Doesn't matter that it's someone elses, and that by the end of the day we'll have to give it back dripping in fear-endowed sweat, you still have your inner child buzzing in anticipation.""


    Enjoy, not translating the whole article, thought it is really interesting to read.


    És igen, magyar vagyok.

    I feel like having Peter around is like having POLAR as a poster. Good work Jalop

    It is wrong to love a Hungarian man just because of one F1 post containing all kinds of win?


    If it is, arrest me now...because think I'm in love with you Peter Orosz.


    In a manly, non-gay, backslapping kind of way, of course.

    @The Big Cheez: Balaclavas are awesome. You can't knock a form of clothing named after a battle in the Crimean War.

    "We are twenty, and everyone is in the size of each. Fire-resistant, wear clothes labeled comic sensation tingled."
    if a foreign race car driver said this to me, i would totally go along with it.


    more video of drivers suiting up and describing their cars, please.

    you either stand on the throttle with all your might or you do the same on the brake pedal.


    How is this different than 70% of typical US drivers in city traffic.


    Oh, F1 is enjoyable to experience.

    @CorporateFelon: Since he's Hungarian, and Hungarian is one of those whacky non-Indo-European languages (like Finnish), I'm going to guess that.


    Or smee.

    To become an F1 driver is really easy. Just collect paychecks, and occasionally win races.
