What the Shit?
12:48AM Mark Wilson | What is this? A clock? Steering wheel? The final, gruesome bout of sponsorship an F1 driver is subjected to before he dies? We’re so confused and oh so cold. [Yab Design via Nerd Approved] More »

5:00PM Nick Broughall | I typically find F1 to be as exciting as watching snails mate. However, this clip which virtually unveils the new Red Bull 2009 F1 car actually raised my right eyebrow (that’s the interesting one), especially the brief moment that you see that the driver’s control panel looks like an Xbox 360 controller from hell.

5:29PM Nick Broughall | I don’t get motorsport. It’s loud, smelly, bad for the environment and repetitive. However, I know that there are a number of people out there who do get it, and would love to get one of these F1 car-shaped USB sticks.
They’re not in any way, shape or form endorsed by the governing body of F1 (whoever that might be – once again, I don’t really care), but they are kind of cute. They’re also USB 2.0 compliant, measure in at 6 x 2.7 x 0.7cm and weigh 72 grams.
Considering the vast arrange of shapes and sizes USB sticks come in, it’s only natural that someone, somewhere hit the market with a F1 shaped model. This 8GB stick will set you back $47.82 plus shipping from Sourcing Map.

80,000-Brick Lego Ferrari F1 Needs Giant Schumacher Minifig
5:20AM Jesus Diaz | I don’t know what can I say about this gigantic 80,000-brick Lego Ferrari model except that 1) it’s amazing, 2) it’s a blow up of the Ferrari F1 Racer 1:8 that I bought earlier this year in my trip to Lego’s Factory, and 3) it was unveiled in the Netherlands for a special Lego event that started yesterday. A close up and another simulated-Lego Ferrari car that can actually drive after the jump. More »

Multi-Computer F1 Racing Screensaver Wins Office Coolness Pole Position
2:00AM Jesus Diaz | Intel Brazil has created what’s probably the best office screensaver in the history of office screensavers: a Formula 1 racing course that spans across multiple computers and monitors to offer one seamless view competition all across the office. Once you start them up, the Formula 1 car will go from one computer to the other, following a circuit that has the same topology as the distribution of computers in the office, going through curves, chicanes, and straight lines as needed. The good thing: you can download it yourself for your Mac or PC. More »
