At the 1997 Austrian Grand Prix Darren Heath, an F1 Racing photographer, noticed that the rear brakes of the McLarens were glowing red in an acceleration zone of the track. The magazine discovered through investigation that McLaren had installed a second brake pedal, selectable by the driver to act on one of the rear wheels. This allowed the driver to eliminate understeer and reduce wheelspin when exiting slow corners. This system was entirely legal, but was an innovation, and hence gave McLaren an advantage. While F1 Racing suspected what McLaren were doing, they required proof to publish the story. At the 1997 Luxembourg Grand Prix the two McLarens retired from the race. This allowed Heath to take a picture of the footwell of Häkkinen's car and the second brake pedal. The story was run in the November issue of F1 Racing and lead to the system being dubbed "brake steer". Ferrari's protestations to the FIA lead to the system being banned at the 1998 Brazilian Grand Prix.

Checked in advance a lot of F1 related sites and most of them are more the linkfarm way with creepy myspace layouts and filled with blinky blinky.
Thought of a clean, but informative style with base colour white, including a swf/flv player, various javascripts for images as well as drop down menues with changing headers.
F1 Racing.DK should have the look of a corporate site, but with some personal touch.
F1 RACING MAGAZINE - from EWA Magazines F1Racing.com (190 words)
Launched in February 1996, F1 Racing has experienced massive growth in popularity and has rocketed in sales to become the world's best selling Formula 1 magazine in just two years, with versions published in the UK, Germany, The Netherlands, Australia, Hong Kong, China, Finland and Brazil.
F1 Racing doesn't just sit down and interview drivers conventionally, we take them horse riding, take them cooking in hotel kitchens in Monaco, go rollerblading with them or jet-ski with them.
In short F1 Racing does things differently from the run of the mill magazines.
