I am currently on J1 visa in US and have applied for waiver already and hope to get it in October 2009. I want to visit India in Nov. Is there any risk to go to India while process of waiver or change of visa status is going on? If I apply after coming back from India in Dec, how much time will they take to process my F1 visa? Will it be done within a month? Is there any premium processing of F1 visa available(like for H1)?|||If you are granted a change of status to
F-1, it is valid only while you remain in the U.S. If you depart after that you would have to obtain a visa to return.
If you are continuing to maintain J-1 status and have a valid visa you could depart and return in that status and
apply for change of status after your return. This might take
2-3 months and might not be accomplished in time to
enroll for the spring term. There is no premium processing
except for employment based petitions.

Is it legal to own a F1 Savannah Cat in Montreal, Quebec?
I would like to know if it is legal to own an F1 Savannah Cat in Montreal, Quebec. I know about the average price of these cats and I am more than willing to buy one if I am sure its legal to own them.|||I tried google.ca a bunch %26amp; I couldn't find anything stating whether it was legal or not.
I'm assuming your best bet would be to go to a vet or a pound and ask, maybe they'd know something on the matter.
by the way:
i didn't know what kind of cat that was before I used the internet, and they're beautiful, they look amazing.
edit:
i hope that you can get one, I like cats.. and like I said, they look gorgeous. It'd be a treat to own one.

Can English school student work off campus with f1 visa?
Here's the story. I have a friend that needs to make some money for the upcoming school year because her parents are cutting her off. Currently she's in English School and has an F1 Visa. I read that she can apply for an Economic Need or the practical training visa after 9 months of study. Does anyone know if this is true or have any idea to how she can work and make some money on the F1 Visa. Thanks.|||Your friend must speak to the international student advisor regarding this matter.
The general basis for a student to work off-campus under the 'severe economic hardship' rule is that this hardship must have come from unforseen circumstances beyond the students control. Judging soley on what you have written it appears she would qualify under the section of 'unexpected changes in the financial condition of the student's source of support'
She must contact and make an appointment with the international student advisor and request a financial hardship package and apply for an EAD (Employment Authorization Document) under the guidence of the advisor.

How to use a coleman F1 ultralight stove with any propane cylinder available?
I have recently bought a coleman F1 ultralight stove, but it doesn't seem to fit onto any of the propane cylinders that I
currently own (mostly 1lbers), is there a way to have a adapter or something to solve this problem?|||From what I can see you have to buy a special type cylinder for this thing. Do a google for "220g propane" and you will see several retailers. There probably are adapter hoses or something, but the problem is that the cylinder also supports the stove and keeps it from tipping over. You're kind of forced to use their cylinders I think.

Does anyone know why F1 racing quit going to the Indy Speedway?
Just found out about the F1 building a track in Texas. Why did they quit going to the Indy Speedway?
Indy spent millions on the infield track for F1, now F1 won't use it. Does anyone know what happened?|||1, As Newman said, money. FOM wanted more than Indy was willing to pay, and neither side would compromise enough to do the deal.
2, Spectacle. The infield section could be described as "mickey-mouse" at best - nowhere could an F1 car show what it was capable of, conversely, F1 cars are not designed to cope with banked corners and looked a bit slow and lame compared to Indycars on the main circuit. F1 lost out both ways.
3, The 2005 race was a mess, and the reputation of Indy as an F1 venue never recovered.|||Bernie Ecclestone wanted too much money for staging a Grand Prix there.|||I gave you a link below about the USGP in 2005. This was the race that killed F1 in the US, even though there were two more races at Indy. This race, and the criticism of the track from the drivers (turns 9 and 10 were nicknamed "Mickey" and "Mouse"), eventually led the Indy organizers to cancel the GP.|||Because Indy was rubbish!
First of all the circuit was bad, it was made up of different types of surfaces, not suitable for an F1 car.
Secondly the pit garages and buildings weren't up to the standards. They were small and rubbish.
Then there's the type of people that go there, the wrong type of people for F1.

If true breeding flowered plants are crossed with true breeding red flowered plants what color will F1 be?
If true breeding flowered plants are crossed with true breeding red flowered plants, what will be the flower color of the F1 plants?|||It depends on the relative penetrance of the pigments in the two cultivars. In some plants red may be dominant so the entire heterozygous F1 generation appears red.
However the alleles may not be fully dominant/recessive so they show an incomplete dominance with intermediate character. One red allele and one white allele in the heterozygote F1 could produce a pink intermediate phenotype.
Some alleles are equal in their expression so that a red and white heterozygous F1 pair of alleles yields a checkered, speckled or streaked bicolor petal. These are codominant when each are expressed.

What would be the F1 phenotypic dominant: recessive ratio for this set of genes?
I don't know what the F1 phenotypic ratio for dominant: recessive genes would be if both parents had recessive genes.
The cross is between "aa" and "aa".
Would the dominant:recessive ratio be 0:4?
I'm confused. Could someone please explain this to me?
Thanks : )|||Yes, since the F1 generation could only be "aa" then the ratio has to be 0:4. Well, unless there is some sort of mutation, but, you can't predict that. :P|||If you wish to put a zero in a phenotypic ratio then it would be 0:4, which can more easily be stated by just saying that 100% of F1 have the recessive phenotype.|||If both parents are homozygous recessive for a certain trait: aa X aa, then each parent will produce only recessive gametes.
i.e. The dad will give an "a". The mom will give an "a".
The progeny (childen) from this cross can ONLY be genotypically "aa". The phenotypic ratio for the F1 generation will be 1 (they will all show the "aa" phenotype).
If you are looking for a dominant : recessive ratio, then you are right, it would techinally be 0:4 recessive because there aren't any dominant alleles in the parent generation.

When i start my computer,the bios screen comes up ,and says floppy disk failure,press f1 to continue?
the problem is ,I have no floppy disk drive,and it is disabled.how can i get rid of this screen,and make my computer start normaly,with out pressing the f1 key to continue the start up process?|||Go into your BIOS and look for the search order of boot drives (HD, floppy, CD). If your floppy is the first one, demote it to the last (eliminate if it possible).
If it's not the first, then all those in front of it are failing to provide a boot sector (the tiny part of the drive that actually runs the first part of the boot operation). This is more serious, as it means your hard drive (probably the first in the sequence) is in deep doo-doo and it's time to take it to a pro and keep your fingers crossed.

Duh...|||You could try holding down a key on one of the keyboards as soon as you try and power it on. This might work, but I would bet that perhaps you've plugged the keyboard into the wrong plug. The motherboard is seeing something plugged in, but it's seeing a problem. I would verify the connection you are connecting to is, in fact, the keyboard jack. If this doesn't work you could try a different interface type like a USB keyboard.|||Could be that your motherboard is going bad or that your keyboard is bad.

Is it possible for F1 status student to form a LLC?
I wanna do some business, but right now it a student with F1 visa, so i don't know if it is possible to form LLC with just a managing member. How about its tax classification with IRS, a corp or partnerships|||That isn't really a tax question, so you may not be tapping into the best sources of information. Try posting it on "Politics %26amp; Government %26gt; Immigration"
It is possible, but unlikely, that the state in which you are planning to do business does not allow a non-resident alien to be the sole member of an LLC. A more likely problem with your plan is the immigration laws. I doubt that the employment restrictions on holders of F-1 visas are that easy to circumvent.
If you can form an LLC without endangering your visa status and courting deportation, your single member LLC would be treated as a sole proprietorship by the IRS unless you elected to have the LLC treated as a corporation.|||Your visa restricts employment to approved work-study programs or OPT.

How do I upgrade from an (expired) B2 Visa to Permanent Residency or to a F1 Visa?
I am 18 years old, so adoption is out of the question.
I have no immediate family in America.
I go to college, but I was told that in order to get a student visa (F1 Visa, which would at least allow me to get a job) I would need to go back to my home country and apply from there. Is there any way to do it without leaving the country?
What can I do to get permanent residency?|||"Upgrading" your immigration status isn't quite the same as getting a first class seat on an airline instead of sitting in coach.
It looks like the advice that you've been given is very good.
You cannot change status to F-1 if your B-2 status has expired.
You need to leave the U.S.
You need to apply for an F-1 visa outside the U.S.
If you are going to college as a B-2 overstay, you are subject to arrest and deportation.
It does not appear that you can become a permanent resident through any of the normal or exceptional ways of becoming a green card holder.|||Student visas strictly prohibit working. You have to prove you have sufficient funds for all of your school expenses, plus all of your living expenses, plus return transportation to your own country. And you can only apply for student visa from within your own country.
There is no way you can remain in the US and get any visa or residency. You must hurry up and return to your country! If your parents brought you here illegally or allowed your visa to expire as a minor child and if you return home before you turn 18 or as soon as you graduate from high school, your parents' illegal acts will not be held against you and in time you can apply for student or other visas if you qualify.

I have no immediate family in America.
I go to college, but I was told that in order to get a student visa (F1 Visa, which would at least allow me to get a job) I would need to go back to my home country and apply from there. Is there any way to do it without leaving the country?
What can I do to get permanent residency?|||"Upgrading" your immigration status isn't quite the same as getting a first class seat on an airline instead of sitting in coach.
It looks like the advice that you've been given is very good.
You cannot change status to F-1 if your B-2 status has expired.
You need to leave the U.S.
You need to apply for an F-1 visa outside the U.S.
If you are going to college as a B-2 overstay, you are subject to arrest and deportation.
It does not appear that you can become a permanent resident through any of the normal or exceptional ways of becoming a green card holder.|||Student visas strictly prohibit working. You have to prove you have sufficient funds for all of your school expenses, plus all of your living expenses, plus return transportation to your own country. And you can only apply for student visa from within your own country.
There is no way you can remain in the US and get any visa or residency. You must hurry up and return to your country! If your parents brought you here illegally or allowed your visa to expire as a minor child and if you return home before you turn 18 or as soon as you graduate from high school, your parents' illegal acts will not be held against you and in time you can apply for student or other visas if you qualify.

Where I can find cheap NJ college for F1 student?
I'm looking for cheap colleges within North Jersey that can issue an I-20 for my F1 visa. Can anybody can give me anything? Thx|||Since F-1 students must may the out of state rates or go to a private school, the term "cheap" and F-1 do not go together.
Have you ever been more excited for the start of an F1 season?
If no...say it.
If yes name the year.
Poll: Which F1 personality would you most like to have dinner and a conversation with?
Please keep your answers reserved for people who are presently involved in F1 at least in some capacity.|||I haven't! I started watching F1 in 1993 and bear in mind I was about 5 years old just watching the tv with my F1 fan father and brother. Senna became my hero and then when he left us it wasn't the same for a long time.
I think the closest I have been to being this excited was in 2007 because Alonso was going to drive for McLaren and Raikkonen for Ferrari, and it was exciting to think about Ferrari not having a number 1 driver. But compared to this it's nothing.
It looks like Williams might win again!!
I think I would like to have a conversation with Briatore, to ask him what's his secret to get the ladies, I wonder if it is the turquoise shades.|||That was in 1994, the first time I followed a full F1 season. Naturally I was way younger then and took a lot of things for granted.
The next one is hard, difficult to answer. I am not sure if it is acceptable, but I'd go for our own Rosbif. He has always made me feel that there is a lot more to know about F1.|||Since any of the current drivers have been involved, no.
Since ever, yes. 1981-1991, for example! It's always different when you have a favourite driver to follow.
As to dinner, a strange choice: Bernie Ecclestone. Not to poison him or to strangle him, but to talk about the Brabham team, and particularly Piquet and Lauda. Asking him about Monaco 1958 would be interesting too.
EDIT
Thanks Firefox! I'd probably have more to ask you about Soviet fighters than you would to ask me about F1 though.|||Oh yes i heard in 1991 a young german named Michael Schumacher, i never knew much about him until then and since then he has made my weekends very interesting, but now he has retired formula 1 is not so thrilling anymore, but i still follow/support Michael.I wouldn't mind having dinner with him, he would never bore me to tears has i am still interested in what he does.

Can an F1 visa student study in a public college for over 1 year?
I know that foreign student in public high schools are limited to 12 months of study but what about college and university? Can an F1 visa student study in a public college or university for over 1 yr?
Thanks|||Yes they can. An F-1 student, in theory can study for an unlimited amount of time in the U.S. provided they are accepted to the colleges/universities and they can afford to do so.
It is absolutely possibly for an international student to complete a 4-year bachelors degree at a college or university and then continue their education by going on and complete a Masters degree. It is also possible for an F-1 student to complete a bachelors, masters and a PhD all in the United States.

Is the F1 Visa a good opportunity for a job sponsor?
For completing a Bachelor on a F1, is it a good op to find a job sponsor?|||I see you still haven't settled on a visa yet. however, any visa that gives you an opportunity to meet potential employers is a good op. Especially, if you use your year for Optional Pratical Training, which essentially allows you to work for an employer in your field for a year after graduation.
Can a f1 student in usa can start with a green card holder in partnership?
hi friends, i want to start a small company with a green card holder in usa,,is it possible i am a international f1 student?|||If you don't work for the company. You can invest into a company but you cannot work for it. On a student visa you can only work on campus, nowhere else.|||Student visa holders are absolutely forbidden to work. If you invested but did not do any work whatsoever, you would be clear on the student visa. However, as a passive investor, you have income tax problems!

What does it take to become an f1 driver ?
i am 14 and very much into f1 and nascar , more f1. i wan to know how to become a f1 driver, what school and where .|||It's a little late in the game to start training to be in F1, but it's about the same age when Sutil started, so there's still hope. Check your local areas and state for racing facilities and racing/training programs, like Skip Barber. It's quite an investment, financially, as well as mentally and physically.|||lol you don't really go to school... you have to get into road course racing on a smaller scale, spend hours and hours behind the wheel of a car, if you're a good racer than you move up from class to class until eventually you get to F1... it's like any other sport. you play little league then high school baseball then college then AAA ball then the pros if you're good. same with racing. you'll probably start out racing go karts then on to something bigger then on to indy car types and on to F1 but like any other professional sport, you have to be very, very good to make it.|||You'll have to start off racing carts and if you're good enough then you could probably move up into one of the lower Formula categories. And if you continue to improve you could make it up to GP2 which is where almost all the F1 drivers race. Pretty much the only GP2 drivers that go to F1 have won a GP2 championship.
That's the (very) simplified method.
Good luck!|||Man, at 14 years old... you're starting a little late. Alot of F1 drivers have had Manufacturers grooming them since they were like 10 years old. But yeah, as stated: find your nearest cart racing track %26amp; find out what you need to do to start competing. You'll need to buy your own cart in most cases. They're like $3000+. Don't let this stuff discourage you though! Go for it! F1 is the pinnacle of Motorsports, though. Even if you aim for F1 and fall short and end up somewhere like Lemans, DTM or even SCCA racing that's still more than what most ppl can even hope or dream to achieve! Just go out and have fun first!|||Its either you have the talent or you dont...
The most important thing beside talent is that you need a very rich sponsor to back you up in the Succeeding formulas to make it to F1...
Stick with Nascar if your an American...|||Get a kart, start winning races. Commit 10,000 hours to this and you will become a professional. I'm not joking about the 10,000 hours rule, look it up.|||be a zillionare and pay HRT to let you drive around for a week or two.
AND they'll even put your name in the side of the car in big white letters!!!|||Well if you are in a different country than the us well you don't have a great chance but you just may never know.

Why are F1 giving grand prix to countries likely to suffer monsoon downpours?
theres nothing wrong with a bit of rain, but safety cars every race make a mockery of f1?
why do you think none of the commentators brought this up...are they just told to keep their mouths shut?|||Not only the downpours, it is also the sandstorms.
They have the market, the circuit or the huge GP fee, which is quite substantial. Bernie does not care about the races , he cares about a profitable championship, and right now there's a huge potential in Asia and the middle east.
There are many places with more motorsport tradition, but they are unable to meet Ecclestone's demands. The reason behind F1 dropping Silverstone y because they couldn't invest and pay the amounts Bernie wanted. Many European circuits have been dropped because the same reason.
I agree that China has miliions of potential fans, but what about Bahrain and Abu Dhabi or Singapore? They have small populations but a lot of money. The TV audience is also important. This year there are no GP in North America, and only one in South America. There are great places to race there: US, Canada, Argentina, Mexico, but it's not good for tv audience in Europe.|||Well, China has 1 billion potential fans of which 300 million are affluent middle class or above...nice market don't you think?|||It's because they keep changing the schedules around so that when races in Asia are run, tv viewers in Europe don't have to wake up too early to watch the races.|||Ask Bernie Ecclestone.

What is the 0-60 time for F1 compared to rally?
I know F1 cars are more powerful, but rally cars have 4 wheel drive. How do these 0-60 times compare? And how about the legendary group B cars?|||For Group B, the Audi Quattro S1 of 1985 did 0-100kph (62mph) in 3.1s, for F1 the Renault R26 did it in 1.7s and for "normal" rally cars the Subaru Impreza of 2004 did it in 4.8s.
I seem to remember the 2000 Williams BMW being tested and doing something ridiculous like 1.2s for the 0-100, but I can't find any confirmation at the moment.

Difference between a J1 Visa And F1 visa for High School in USA ?
Hello.
I am planning on going study my high school in USA and i need a visa. I am from Canada and i would like to know what is the difference between a J1 visa and a F1 visa.
Thanks|||A J-1 visa is known as an exchange visitor, holders of this visa are participating in a program that's aim is to promote cultural exchanges between the two countries (programs can be like student studies, or short term visits, etc.). It is monitored and exchange visitors and programs are accepted into it by department of state. A lot of programs require that the exchange visitor return to their home country for atleast two years after the program has ended in order to pass along the cultural learnings. See the state department website for more information: http://travel.state.gov/visa/temp/types/types_1267.html
An F-1 is a student visa that allows a foreign national to enter into certain levels of study in the U.S., even public high school, providing that they have the necessary funds to pay for school tuition. Attendance is limited to 12 months for a public secondary school, though, so if you wanted to spend your entire high school career in the U.S., you would have to attend a private institution. See http://travel.state.gov/visa/temp/types/types_1269.html for more information.|||You need a J1 visa to attend high school in the US. You can use a F1 visa to attend college.|||you can only attend 1 year of high school - You CANNOT do all 4 years

How can i become a Professional F1 driver ?
im 17 i have no license or experience in Driving at all.i will be getting my license soon but i want to become a pro F1 race car driver.what steps should i take 1st and how should i do it?i need a school near me im in virginia and i havnt yet done karting.i need help bad!|||Most F1 drivers using start off by Karting. There are a series of feeder series that drivers complete to climb up the ladder to be a F1 driver (Formula Ford, Formula Renault, Formula 3 and finally GP2).
There is a Bertil Roos racing school in Virginia that may be of assistance in your pursuit of a racing career. They are located at the Virginia International Raceway.
Best wishes in your pursuit|||I hate to dash your hopes, but you're about 10 years too late in getting started. It is possible (as Bruno Senna has proved), but someone with the name Senna clearly has a bit of a head-start. It also requires natural talent, and obviously it is unknown whether you have that either.|||Like the previous answerers said, there are a number of series to climb up to. Another way I think is to become an IndyCar driver and have a good finish in the season (like Sebastien Bourdais this year).

How to become F1 driver? is it possible to enter with skills, rather than money game?
As far as from India point of view, it is going to launch in 2011(hopefully) and i want to enter I think skills are important for any sports not money. I am passionate to become a professional driver for F1, and i think i can do it, if get proper training and guidelines. i m seeking for proper guidelines and i want to take green pass of F1 to run on track.|||Skills are more important... but they are just part of an equation that includes natural talent and funds. If someone happens to be born with great natural talent (for racing, that would be mainly balance and perception), they have a great advantage over other potential drivers. However, if they do not drive and develop the skills to use that talent, they will never have a chance to race professionally.
If that same driver with great natural talents starts driving competitively from an early age (between 6 and 8 years old), significantly developing their skills to a great level such that by the time they are 16-18, they could be one of the top young drivers in the world, but they lack funding to drive at a high enough level to ever be seen, they will not have the chance to attract the needed attention that could lead to one of the very few driver seats in F1.
And conversely, someone with little or no natural talent and no skills could have all the money in the world, but they would have no chance of securing a drive.
Excelling at motorsports requires some natural talents, and lots of seat time and experience to develop racing skills. However, even with that in hand, the reality is that motorsports are expensive. "Cheap" low level amatuer budgets could run as low as $10k/year... but to run at the front of those same series would require two to three times as much. A small step up and budgets jump to $40-50k/year, with front runners again spending much more. Getting up to low level amatuer series and suddenly it's $100-200k/year... and winning at that level will require two to three times that. And so forth up.
If you look at the path to driving at the highest levels of motorsport, there are two enemies you will need to overcome. First, is time - it takes years to develop the needed skills! Second is money. The more you have of the later, the better use you can make of the first... but given lots of time (ie, starting when you are 6 years old) means you can start cheaper and spread the cost out over a longer time.
If you are not currently racing at a very high level, and doing so with success (ie, you have a GP2 win to your credit, or at least a podium or two), there is no chance you will be racing in F1 in 2011. Given a great amount of natural talent and unlimited funding, it might be possible to run through the needed driving experience in 2-3 years, but would still be a great long shot. Without unlimited funding, you will need 2-3 years to get enough experience to then take another 2-3 years to develop sponsors and contacts such that you can then use the next 3-4 years climbing up to higher levels and then have a 2-3 year chance of running at the top (assuming you have GREAT natural talent and a little luck). This means 10+ years (so if you are 16 or younger now, then it could still be an outside chance for 2021, where in the path would be to start karting now and gather whatever funding you do have to get a race car and a competition license).|||u need to have TALENT as well as A LOT OF MONEY....|||.

Why is so much in F1 decided after the race?
Why is F1 unique in world sport where so much is decided in courts and enquiries. Do you think this makes the sport look stupid in the eyes of the public. Bad decisions happen in all sports but none, that I know of, have so much decided after the event.|||As I've just posted in another answer, in horseracing, a Stewards enquiry is called immediately after the end of a race where there's been a questionable incident. The places are not announced until the outcome of the Enquiry is known, at which time bet winnings are paid out.
This is getting to the point (if not beyond!) of farce. I don't remember it getting so bad as it has during the past few seasons. So what's going on..... too much money involved??!
Add - and before everybody screams cheating - remember all these races are taking place an a phenominally high speed, which requires split second decisions (okay in this case it took place, allegedly, under the SC). Not much room for pre-planned cheating there I'd say - unlike taking steriods before a track race!|||Because the FIA care about the result going to the RIGHT people, not those who think they can cheat, bend rules or cover up evidence in order to win.
I think the FIA are quite brave in this repsect as other sporting bodies around the world usually couldn't care less.|||It does frustrate me a bit, seeing as I have to keep checking the internet or the news to see what came of what I already saw... I think they should try and make a race result final and unchangeable after say 18:00 on the monday after a race. That way there's none of this um and ah-ing, teams and drivers can have their say into contentious results, and the casual fans as well as hardcore nuts like me can rest easy knowing who came where.
IMO Lewis drove a fantastic race and deserved to at least keep his fourth place which he earned on the road. Same for Trulli in 3rd... He drove brilliantly and all this palaver has come out of a misunderstanding which was resolved on track with no-one being ripped-off or conned in the process.|||F1 is a joke now. Just a reality show with even a manufactured world champion. Moto GP is far Superior.|||I agree|||I think its basically so Bernie Ecclestone can run the final rule, he seems to have the sport on strings. The latest incident is different, if its proved Hamilton lied then it will be a fair call but in my opinion the sport would be a hell of a lot better without the control of one man and his dog Max Mosely!!|||Unique? Really?
What about athletics? Do the results stand after a winner is found to to have taken banned steroids? That is cheating and when it is done there, it doesn't look stupid, right?
Same here. Just that there are a lot more ways to cheat and to disregard the integrity of the sport. This is a corrective measure and this is common in all sports when caught to be cheating.
-- Bad decisions happen in all sports but none, that I know of, have so much decided after the event.-- Ben Johnson, David Millar, Adrian Annus, if you want, I can give a lot more. Because you don't know it doesn't make your statement right!|||There are a number of very valid reasons for this. Firstly, it's so "high tech" that teams are constantly "stretching" their interpretation of the rules. The consequence of what some might call "cheating", is that the stewards at each race, might have to deal with appeals from other teams, as to either the question of another teams equipment, or the behavior of their driver. There is also the question of an appeal to the FIA, (which is currently looking into the diffusers on the rear of several cars, including the winning Brawn GP cars) and might not be heard for some weeks.|||Can you ask all the cars to hold position and distance while the stewards make a decision? Unfortunately no. While I would like them to decide quickly, I rather they make a correct decision.
By the way, athletics, cycling even football (West Ham and Carlos Tevez) are going to the arbiters or the courts.
BTW, Dan, my problem with McLaren is they chose to mislead (nicer word than lie) during the inquiry. They almost cost Trulli his position and all 6 points. Their punishment is fair. If they had not chosen to hide anything, I would agree that they should keep 4th.
I am glad that Trulli got back the position he deserved. From pit lane to 3rd! wow!|||Many technical and other rules require time to weight the evidience and try to get it right.
In this latest McLaren/Lewis Hamilton episode, the FIA's correct decision was delayed because Hamilton and his team manager David Ryan lied to the officials in their post-race de-brief.|||Because some incidents need reviewed before a decision is made, to stop people like Hamilton cheating|||actually the hunt for justice is what causes as u say 'so much after the event'
in other sports...there's an umpire/refree...whose wrong descision too is to be accepted..|||There is as much controversy over the controversy as there is in the controversy.
It's fairly simple to get the decisions a bit more dynamic - after all F1 is a dynamic sport.
Complaints must be put to the stewards within 1 lap of the incident. The stewards have 3 laps to make a decision - no appeals. And if a complaint is deemed to be spurious the car in question gets a drive thru penalty. If there is not time for a stewards decision before the chequered flag then that is tough luck.
That would make the last 3 laps of every race very interesting.|||sorry to raise a counter example but look at the many athletes DQed after failing a drug test after winning - in some cases having world records cancelled many YEARS after the race.

e.g street circuits would have more laps then a circuit than has been built properly like SilverStone.|||85035803038552809528 laps|||It depends on the track distance. if you go to the website http://www.formula1.com then up the top it has each country in which a race will be held it will give you a track layout and details including how many laps.
The malaysian GP was stopped due to rain and only 31 of the 56 laps was completed and because it was less than 75% of the race completed then half points are awarded.

Do i have to have medical exam before I go to Visa F1 interview?
im going to a Visa F1 student interview. will i need medial exam before I go to the interview?|||No, non-immigrant F-1 visa applicants do not have medical exams prior to visa issuance.
If there is a possibility that the applicant has a contagious disease of public health significance or may be a drug abuser, a medical exam might be necessary.
If the visa officer has reason to believe that the applicant is not eligible for a visa, then a medical exam could be requested to clear up the issue, but the exam would not take place before the interview.|||If it wasn't mentioned, don't worry about it.

What can go wrong with the parking brake of a 1948 Ford F1 truck, and how would you fix it?
Is there any part of a parking brake mechanism in a 1948 Ford F1 that can simply come loose and be easily repaired?

How can I find the paperwork needed to apply for a F1 US visa, including my spouse and kids?
I got the i-20 from my university and now I need to apply for an F1 visa, and also for F2 visa for my wife and my kids. What is the paperwork needed for this? Do I need a lawyer to prepare them?
Thanks,
Bernie|||You dont need a lawyer. The international students office at your university should have plenty of information regarding how to proceed.
Basically, after you receive your i-20, you have to schedule an appointment for a via at the U.S. Embassy. Bring all the documentation you can, and all the documentation that sent the university that accepted you.
You can read more about the process here:

Who is the least experienced driver ever to race in F1?
I'm not talking about age, but racing experience and years. Also, how did he become an F1 driver?|||Most drivers have years of karting experience, but in terms of CAR racing experience, Mike Thackwell is probably going to prove difficult to beat.
Thackwell had a single year of F3 and most of a season of F2 prior to his GP debut. His father had been involved in racing since before Mike was born, which explains his rapid introduction to the sport. He was a top talent, but his career stalled when he arrived in F1 - a similar situation to Luca Badoer.
Ricardo Rodriguez had no karting experience prior to his car racing career. His progression from nothing to sportscars to F1 (in a Ferrari, no less) took him about 2 years. He benefitted from sharing equipment and expertise with his older brother, Pedro. Like several other drivers, he was promoted from the works Ferrari sportscar squad to the F1 team.
Fernando Alonso had over a decade of karting experience, but only 2 years racing cars, when he made his F1 debut. He had a pushy parent with frustrated driving ambitions. Flavio Briatore knew a good thing when he saw it and "placed" Alonso with Minardi.
Chris Amon also had no karting background, and made his F1 debut after just 3 years in lower formulae. He got into F1 thanks to a New Zealand driver-sponsorship programme which sent him to Europe.
For earlier answerers: Raikkonen had 6 years racing cars before his F1 debut and Schumacher had nearly 4 years experience in cars. Both of them had extensive karting careers beforehand. Taki Inoue, meanwhile, had 9 years of car racing experience before his late debut at the age of 31, so it isn't him! Nelsinho Piquet had almost 7 years in cars before getting into F1, although he was the youngest ever South American F3 champion AND the youngest ever British F3 champion along the way.|||It could be Rubens Barrichello, He is set to become the first driver to reach 300 Grand Prix entries and 300 starts (now is 284) in 2010. Assuming the season is trouble free, his 300th start will be achieved at the Japanese Grand Prix.
but i choose Michael "Schumi" Schumacher.
He isn't just old enough, he's so experienced, tasted the glory periods, got the title "Rain Master", great, and if he didn't retire from formula one, i'm so sure that he would be the first driver to reach the much-est races.
Besides, he won 7 times Driver World's Champion of Formula One, got 91 winning race, and he started his racing career since 7 years old. He must be the experienced driver ever to race in F1.
Schumacher made his Formula One debut with the Jordan-Ford team at the 1991 Belgian Grand Prix, driving car number 32 as a replacement for the imprisoned Bertrand Gachot. Then, his glory was began to play :)|||As for the least time in the feeder series to be competitive, that would be kimi raikkonen, who jumped strait from formula 3. he was the least experienced world champion.|||Takachiho Inoue, who got sponsorship from Unimat and a Simtek seat in 1994.|||Looked like a lack of experience for Nelson Piquet jr though it wasn't he was just awful!|||a lot!!!!!

Is it hard to get an off-campus work permit in the US when you are a F1 student?
I'm studying right now in Alaska with a F1 Visa so I wanted to apply for an off-campus work permit after I complete my first year here but researching in the websites of the goverment it seems like a lot of trouble and not really easy. Is it really the way the make it seem? Thanks a lot.|||No it isn't hard. You have to demonstrate economic necessity, and the number of hours you can work is limited. Follow the link below. Go to page 4. It explains under what circumstances an F-1 student may work. The very most important thing is to keep going to school and keep passing grades. If you neglect your studies because of employment, the school sends a letter to Immigration and Customs Enforcement. It gets worse from there.|||After attending school for 1 year F1 students can seek “off-campus” employment with the permission of USCIS only if they can prove that economic need has changed for example medical bills that need to be paid. All students can work 20 hours per week on-campus with-out the permission of USCIS.

Where is the best position to stand at the BELGIAN F1 GP with general admission tickets?
I have General Admission Tickets for the Spa F1 GP for myself and my 2 sons aged 8 and 10. Where is the best point on the track to watch?|||Since I've never been to Spa, I can't tell you. But if I were going, I know where I think I'd want to be; Eau Rouge/Raidillon.
For 15+ years I've watched races from there, and that little area has always stood out as a place I'd like to be to see the Spa race. Oh yeah, and Spa is one of my favorite F-1 tracks.

What will happen if F1 student gets reported for drug use?
my friend is under F1 visa. he took come pills and fell unconscious. his cousin took him to the hospital. the doctor said he was going to be fine but reported to the police as a drug case. he took about 20 pills of some medicine. can any one tell me if he is going to get deported or he'll be fined. i would really appreciate if anyone could tell me what might happen.|||It would probably depend on whether these pills are narcotics and whether they regard this as a suicide attempt or a fairly stupid effort to get high. 20 of anything doesn't sound like an accident.|||There's a pretty good possibility he will be deported. F1 students are here because they want to learn not get high.|||i honestly think if the police found out that he had bought the drugs and if ur friend gets convicted he will be 1st detained then deported for sure. The United States takes drugs really seriously..|||There's a great possibility that he will get deported. A friend of mine was deported due to a fight. The police came and reported as an assault. Once the police are involved and a record is written, it's very possible that the individual gets deported.

Do you think there should be some women F1 drivers?
Women are allowed to participate in F1 but for many years men have dominated the sport. Throughout the whole history of F1 there ahve only been 5 female F1 drivers should there be more?|||Good question Cookie. Perhaps it's not question of "should" there be women F1 drivers. If a woman grows through the ranks and proves she has got what it takes to do the job, I'm sure there'd be an opportunity for her at the top of the sport.
Some sports are more mentally and physically suited to a particular gender and it would seem that traditionally, motor-racing is a sport that men have the stronger leanings towards.
It could of course be a gender raising issue as well, as it is usually the Dad who wants to coach and encourage the son to go for it. Although, I recall reading that Alonso's father tried very hard to get his daughter into karting but she just was not interested so the kart was passed down to the younger brother Alonso - and wallah!
|||no|||If there's a woman good enough who can compete on equal terms then fine, but historically all the women F1 drivers have sucked.
|||I agree with David, frankly there aren't any good enough, yes there are some good female race drivers but none at an F1 talent level.
Lella Lombardi finished 6Th in the 1975 Spanish GP|||If they have the mental and physical strength to do so, then why not?|||only if they are good enough. F1 should be about the best drivers, not setting any artificial "quotas" for male and female drivers.
But maybe there should be more done to encourage girls to take up karting and then racing.

After one of the most exciting F1 seasons in 2008, how is 2009 shaping up?
I'm honestly bored out of my mind. The sissy politics of F1 seem to have to outshone the action on track (a common problem in F1). What is your outlook for the rest of the season?
BQ: Will the trick diffusers ultimately bring downforce levels in high speed corners to a point where the FIA intended them not to be?|||remember in years past, the two top teams starting out the season strongest, separated the gap through development, not in a decade have such strong and well funded teams been in a position to play catchup with the leaders,
i think brawn and red bull will be handicapped (yeah only to a small degree) funds wise where as mclaren and ferrari have a long way to go and more than enough funds to get there,
so far i think this year has been better than last, and has the potential to be even better still,
as for the political hoopla, it only effects you if you let it, i personally think, as of now, that the FIA have ruled as i would have on every issue, if you don't read all the mud slinging and political trash you would only think that we have a great season going on|||I don't think it's too bad. It could have been a bit dull if Brawn completely dominated the field during every race. Right now, I'm expecting Redbull to fight back and there's even space for Toyota to finally get their first victory with a lot of luck. Maybe McLaren can pull off a late comeback a la Renault 2008.
It's true that there's the usual controversies but I think it will calm down a little bit after a while. I'm looking forward to Spain, wonder if the updates will re shuffle the pecking order.|||I agree with you that politics has taken priority over racing once again, and I have to admit that I've become embroiled in it, due to things happening within the sport that I strongly disagree with. As for the rest of the season, I really have no idea, the Brawn and Red Bull cars and driver's look genuinely good, but I can see the McLaren's and probably Ferrari coming back at them after mid season.
As for the diffusers, they are without doubt a benefit, but not the sole reason behind efficient downforce, look at the Red Bull.
The FIA make some strange decisions as we all know, ie. reduce downforce to make cars go slower, then give them back slick tyres to make them go quicker! Very strange!|||The racing in 2009 is vastly more exciting than 2008 allready. There have been one or two political problems which are all hapily now resolved, so the good racing can continue.|||Unless some teams catch Brawn it's just gonna be boring.
Loads of people are enjoying their dominance at the moment, but after a whole season they will have had more than enough.
It was so much better in my view last year when neither of the top two teams were perfect, and so there was no certainty as to who would come out on top either race.
It seems that the only drivers actually overtaking often are the drivers that have been put down the grid since last year, such as Lewis and Kimi, as the others just jump each other in pit stops, or go past when they make mistakes.
Hopefully everything will change in Spain, and we will be back to uncertainty and actual racing.
BQ:
Yes, I think you're right, the teams will just reinstate the sownforce levels slowly until they are pretty much the same as last year.|||Well the new two tier diffusers although completely legal do go against what the FIA was trying to achieve and that was to lower downforce levels and increase overtaking in the sport. The new diffusers cause a turbulence effect which creates "dirty air" behind the car so the following car has more trouble overtaking, while also providing downforce levels up near last years cars (this years cars are faster than last year).
As for the the comment about the FIA making strange decisions like lowering downforce and then adding slick tyres this is again another step to aid in overtaking as the higher levels of downforce creates more turbulence behind the cars where as slick tyres do not, so the slick tyres were simply added to make up for the lack of downforce and are an excellent idea. The is also why the new front ends are wider and the rears narrower. The front tyres are thinner than the rear which doesn't take a genius to realise will create more traction at the rear than at the front.
I think the season so far has been very exciting, im glad to see new faces up the front, including JB who i have long felt was an excellent driver stuck in a useless team. Its also fantastic to see the prancing horse finally not doing so well. However i anticipate a strong surge in the coming months from both mclaren who are already starting to show some promising signs, and also ferrari who simply have to many smart engineers and too much money not to have a competent car once they can work there problems out with KERS.
Actually KERS i feel is one of the more interesting things in formula 1 which a lot of teams seem to be against but i think it adds another layer to the sport and makes it more interesting to watch with some teams opting to run it and some not. Just look at what hamilton did in the bahrain GP when he shot up from 5th position to 2nd or 3rd in the first corner, assisted by KERS|||The season will likely improve as the field catchs up with the Brawn cars.
I couldn't agree more with the stupid politics of the sport 2009 is leading the way for that. We've had Hamilton DQ fo not telling the truth. What that has to do with where he finished I'll never understand at worst he was 4th.
The rediculously stupid rule book with a hole the size of (something very big) in it.
And no the diffusers won't make for that high of speeds. The slicks and giant front wings give plenty of downforce anyways.
Can't Bernie and Max go buy a remote island somewhere and leave the sport alone!|||The season has been fantastic so far! Far better than 2008. We have new teams running up front, drivers who have never been title contenders suddenly running up front, we have the Ferrari/McLaren mystique shattered. BMW is getting smoked by the likes of Force India, and we still don't know where Alonso will end up next year. Granted, I don't think the driver's championship battle will come down to the last turn of the last race of the season, but I think we will have more excitement throughout the entire year, especially if Ferrari and McLaren suddenly find speed again, making it a 4 team battle for the constructor's championship.|||A Button domination
I never thought I would be disappointed after saying that
This year has been extremely boring
the FIA needs to loosen up
I think it will be this way until we hit Spa
BQ: Yup, it just seems like that always happens in the FIA, huh?|||I'm also looking forward to spain this weekend. I think this season is going well and I can't wait for Lewis to start winning races.
BQ: Will the trick diffusers ultimately bring downforce levels in high speed corners to a point where the FIA intended them not to be?|||remember in years past, the two top teams starting out the season strongest, separated the gap through development, not in a decade have such strong and well funded teams been in a position to play catchup with the leaders,
i think brawn and red bull will be handicapped (yeah only to a small degree) funds wise where as mclaren and ferrari have a long way to go and more than enough funds to get there,
so far i think this year has been better than last, and has the potential to be even better still,
as for the political hoopla, it only effects you if you let it, i personally think, as of now, that the FIA have ruled as i would have on every issue, if you don't read all the mud slinging and political trash you would only think that we have a great season going on|||I don't think it's too bad. It could have been a bit dull if Brawn completely dominated the field during every race. Right now, I'm expecting Redbull to fight back and there's even space for Toyota to finally get their first victory with a lot of luck. Maybe McLaren can pull off a late comeback a la Renault 2008.
It's true that there's the usual controversies but I think it will calm down a little bit after a while. I'm looking forward to Spain, wonder if the updates will re shuffle the pecking order.|||I agree with you that politics has taken priority over racing once again, and I have to admit that I've become embroiled in it, due to things happening within the sport that I strongly disagree with. As for the rest of the season, I really have no idea, the Brawn and Red Bull cars and driver's look genuinely good, but I can see the McLaren's and probably Ferrari coming back at them after mid season.
As for the diffusers, they are without doubt a benefit, but not the sole reason behind efficient downforce, look at the Red Bull.
The FIA make some strange decisions as we all know, ie. reduce downforce to make cars go slower, then give them back slick tyres to make them go quicker! Very strange!|||The racing in 2009 is vastly more exciting than 2008 allready. There have been one or two political problems which are all hapily now resolved, so the good racing can continue.|||Unless some teams catch Brawn it's just gonna be boring.
Loads of people are enjoying their dominance at the moment, but after a whole season they will have had more than enough.
It was so much better in my view last year when neither of the top two teams were perfect, and so there was no certainty as to who would come out on top either race.
It seems that the only drivers actually overtaking often are the drivers that have been put down the grid since last year, such as Lewis and Kimi, as the others just jump each other in pit stops, or go past when they make mistakes.
Hopefully everything will change in Spain, and we will be back to uncertainty and actual racing.
BQ:
Yes, I think you're right, the teams will just reinstate the sownforce levels slowly until they are pretty much the same as last year.|||Well the new two tier diffusers although completely legal do go against what the FIA was trying to achieve and that was to lower downforce levels and increase overtaking in the sport. The new diffusers cause a turbulence effect which creates "dirty air" behind the car so the following car has more trouble overtaking, while also providing downforce levels up near last years cars (this years cars are faster than last year).
As for the the comment about the FIA making strange decisions like lowering downforce and then adding slick tyres this is again another step to aid in overtaking as the higher levels of downforce creates more turbulence behind the cars where as slick tyres do not, so the slick tyres were simply added to make up for the lack of downforce and are an excellent idea. The is also why the new front ends are wider and the rears narrower. The front tyres are thinner than the rear which doesn't take a genius to realise will create more traction at the rear than at the front.
I think the season so far has been very exciting, im glad to see new faces up the front, including JB who i have long felt was an excellent driver stuck in a useless team. Its also fantastic to see the prancing horse finally not doing so well. However i anticipate a strong surge in the coming months from both mclaren who are already starting to show some promising signs, and also ferrari who simply have to many smart engineers and too much money not to have a competent car once they can work there problems out with KERS.
Actually KERS i feel is one of the more interesting things in formula 1 which a lot of teams seem to be against but i think it adds another layer to the sport and makes it more interesting to watch with some teams opting to run it and some not. Just look at what hamilton did in the bahrain GP when he shot up from 5th position to 2nd or 3rd in the first corner, assisted by KERS|||The season will likely improve as the field catchs up with the Brawn cars.
I couldn't agree more with the stupid politics of the sport 2009 is leading the way for that. We've had Hamilton DQ fo not telling the truth. What that has to do with where he finished I'll never understand at worst he was 4th.
The rediculously stupid rule book with a hole the size of (something very big) in it.
And no the diffusers won't make for that high of speeds. The slicks and giant front wings give plenty of downforce anyways.
Can't Bernie and Max go buy a remote island somewhere and leave the sport alone!|||The season has been fantastic so far! Far better than 2008. We have new teams running up front, drivers who have never been title contenders suddenly running up front, we have the Ferrari/McLaren mystique shattered. BMW is getting smoked by the likes of Force India, and we still don't know where Alonso will end up next year.

what was the average time it took for a f1 pitstop in the 1960s also how many men were in the pitcrew.. thanks in advanced.|||Prepare to laugh.....in the early 60's and late 50's 3-4minutes. There were no pit stop garages, drivers pulled up on the side of the road, climbed out, along came the mechanics with their tools around their waists, lifted the bonnet off, did some tuning, slowly replaced the tyres, driver climbed back in and drove off.

How does a F1 student from the UK file a US Income tax return?
I'm really confused as to how I fill out form 1040NR-EZ. I know that the UK and the US has a tax treaty but I'm not sure how it works.
I am an F1 student in VA and I earned about $4200 in the tax year. Will I get all of the federal tax back?|||On F1 you are exempt from residency for 5-years. You must file non-resident tax return Form 1040NR or 1040NR-EZ and Form 8843. Your income is not subject to FICA taxes but you must pay federal and state income taxes.
On your income you will get deduction based on tax treaty between the U.S. and your country. The UK and US tax treaty for students does not have any deduction for students from UK. You can claim itemized deduction.|||You get a personal exemption of $3,650. If you earned more than that you will have some tax liability so you won't receive a refund of all of the tax that was withheld. The treaty essentially exempts any non-US income from US taxation while you are an F1 student.
Non-resident Aliens cannot claim the standard deduction or most itemized deductions. You can claim the sate income taxes that you paid during the year but that's about it.

What are the phenotypes and genotypes of the f1 generation in a Mendelian genetics problem about blood types?
A man who has blood type A negative blood and a woman who has heterozygous Type B positive blood have children. What are the phenotypes and genotypes of the f1 generation?|||I'm assuming the male has homozygous AA genotype because the question points out that the female is heterozygous B postive.
Thus, the male contributes only A- gametes, while the female contributes 1/4 B+, 1/4 B-, 1/4 O+ and 1/4 O-
So the genotypic ratios are:
1/4 A-B+
1/4 A-B-
1/4 A-O+
1/4 A-O-
and the phenotypic ratios are
1/4 AB positive
1/4 AB negative
1/4 A positive
1/4 A negative|||Odd question as we usually don't use F1 for humans...
Also you don't say if man has homozygous or heterozygous A.
A type can be AO or AA must be --
B type can be BO or BB and +- or ++

AA vs BB would have only AB offspring
-- vs ++ would have only +- offspring

I am getting married to a US citizen in fall 2009, I am currently in status(F1) and was never out of status.I need help with the list documents and forms I need and perhaps help from someone who has filed for adjustment without using a lawyer (their fees are ridiculous and my case is a straight forward one ) Is there any lawyer out there who is wiling to help out at a reasonable fee for a basic case like mine?|||After you're married your US Spouse files I-130, I-864 and G-325A.
You file I-485, I-131, I-765 and G-325A.
File everything at the same time, in the same envelope. The cost to file is $1,365.
You don't need a lawyer to do this. You're in college. The forms can be filled out by any high school student. Do it yourself.
