Hi everybody,

The site has been overwhelmed with visitors the last week and especially the last days (over 15000 visitors a day). I believe that this is partly because of all our work on the site and the news, but I also would like to thank all of you, our visitors and forum members, and especially the ones that are here for a while already! You guys are the reason why we keep doing this and we're very happy that you all seem to like what we do as well as you all keep coming back!

Thanks for all the trust and support!!

Kind regards,
Principessa

I knew F1 world would blossom again once Schuey retires :lol:

Just kidding, just kidding!

I was stunned by yesterday's figure too over 16.000 visitors and now again!
Excellent job Principessa and Tomba. Big ones are scratching their heads (if they knew that team of two people gets such results I bet many people on profitable F1 sites would get sacked). :wink:

Well done!

Thank you, Principessa. You're very gracious to attribute your success to anything but hard work. Congratulations and prepare yourself for the 20.000 visitors per day mark, once the season starts.

Hehe I was surprised too with such sudden increase in visitors. In 7 days we went from 4500 daily to now 19000 8)

I would be nice to have more people here, as obviously we're doing a pretty good job on informing you, can hardly post the news any faster, although I must admit some articles need some updates (my error).

Anyway, as usual I'm busy preparing this site for more. If any of you would like to help, you can:
- Any information, scans, textual additions to the cars of teams database, email us!
- Second, just like Miqi23, if you have written an article yourself about something related to F1, let me know, and we'll put it online for you.

Are you really surprised? F1.com doesn't put half the work ito its site as you two do into this one, you must realise by now that we're not just flattering you when we say this is the best F1 site in the world! I've been here for a year and I haven't found a more informative site, friendlier forum or cooler avatars anywhere, I only looked at this site in the first place because I was looking for F1 aero info and this is the only place it could be found. If the others new that a couple of Belgian students were running this show so as well as you guys they might very well throw in their keyboards and take up emu farming.

Not only that but these students are getting interveiws with actual F1 drivers, grand prix winners too! We have people here who were, just last week, talking to head designers at Toyota about their latest creation! We've got some of the best image editors anywhere to be found, surely just awaiting a call from some team to design their new livery or CDG wings.

You guys deserve those 15000 hits a day, don't thank us, thank you.

that's a symptom of how things are working here, this site grows everyday and hooks everyone that really wants to learn. Also this site keeps on evolving, with that wonderfull database with all cars/teams ever, fresh news and quality additions like dev blog. But above that things it's the most important one, the great community we have and one of the clues of that advance.

so we must say thanks principessa and thanks tomba keep on :D

Well done guys, 15000 visitors is huge and I think you could easily hit upwards of 20000 once the season starts. Best of luck and keep up the excellent work !!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

While I wish you the best of luck in exceeding 20000, the reality is that the FIA imposed limit for 07 is 19000 I believe. :roll:
Keep up the good work!
