FORMULA ONE by Shane M.

F1 is a certain type of motor sport. The races in the series are called Grand prix. It starts every April and finishes in October. All the races are on television all over the world.

F1 Jordan Car Jordan f1 car is made in England beside the Silverstone Race track. Jordan F1 began in 1990 as a small team with little money. It came 5th the constructors championship. In 1998 it came third, and driver H.H. FRENTZEN also came third over all. Jordan f1 uses a Honda Engine. It develops 800-horse power. It uses Bridgestone tyres and has over 100 people employed.

Many of our lads were at Togher's to welcome the Jordan Car

My Story

Here in this American stadium. As the drivers prepare to start their engines for our final Race here in America. I`ll hand it over to you John. Thank you Shane, and the countdown starts 3,2,1! and there off. Schumacher takes the lead with Irvine on his tail. Johnny Boogy is right beside Irvine. Irvine bumps into Boogy. Boogy hits the tyres but he kept On going although he was in last place. But now Morris from China takes the lead with Schmacher desperately tring to get back to first place. Now in the middle group are Boogy, Irvine, Jim Powers, Paul McCaine, and Tom Wiseman. And in last place we have donal keane. A half an hour later Paul McCaine breaks out of the middle group and passes out Schumacher. And on the last bend Paul McCaine so fast he bumps into Morris and the two cars stop. Schmacher takes the lead. Schmacher passes the finish line with Irvine in second and Johnny Boogy in third. . . Shane M.

We had a great day at Togher's, loads to eat and drink and that car, it's there somewhere.....
