So what happens if, on the one in a million chance, a bird happens to fly right in front of your face and you hit it at that speed?

It's Ferrari World in Abu Dhabi, I think it just opened too.

:eek: That's stupid fast, I wonder if they kick it down a couple notches for average people that can't hand the G's that F1 Racers can lol.

I just got back from the F1 race and we rode that coaster 3 times in one day. The initial launch is extreme and just slams you into the seat. The rest of the ride is fun too but it's the first bit that really gets you going. We were there just after Alonso and Massa rode the coaster - like maybe 30 minutes. We bought a couple of Alonso shirts just in case we bumped into him somewhere.

It's a good thing Alonso wears a helmet while he drives, cause if he didn't his face would be down the side of the car.

Where are you guys seeing this? All I saw was early on the excess seatbelt strapping flew out of the car and was blowing in the wind.

Also, they only give the people in the front seats the goggles. Everyone else either closes their eyes for the first bit or has them watering a ton when trying to keep them open.

Right at 0:26 you can see a bunch of stuff fly out on the right side of the screen.

I love the way they both duck the post at 1:01.

I'm bad for that when on a coaster as well.
