We are set for another quiet day in F1, but the Force India launch is tomorrow.

Tommy B’s excellent Toro Rosso blog, Forza Toro Rosso has become The Bull Run, as it moves to focus more on both of the Red Bull sister teams: “After much deliberation, I decided to change my blog to focus more on both Red Bull teams. I thought long and hard about it and realised during the season I’d like to talk about Red Bull Racing as well as Toro Rosso.” I have updated the link in our blogroll.
NASCAR.com: Patrick finishes sixth in stock-car debut at Daytona
Saturday night’s ARCA Lucas Oil Slick Mist 200 at Daytona International Speedway was both Nelson Piquet Jr and Danica Patrick’s first ever stock car race. This is a link to the race report on NASCAR.com.
The ARCA race on Saturday night was live blogged on our F1 Live page, with live blogging and a video stream. 50 of you visited and participated in the chat, with just short of 1000 messages being sent. It was great fun and thanks to all who came along. We will be doing another live blogging event next Sunday for the NASCAR Daytona 500, and in every F1 qualifying and race session in 2010. We are also looking into the prospect of live blogging during GP2 races. All the info you need will be posted on our Twitter page in due course.

Comment of the day
There were too many comments of the day yesterday to make me pick just one! There were some crackers from steph90, Cubejam and Red Andy though on my post What F1 could learn from rallying.
Pics of the day

A blast from the past
On this day in 2005, the Jordan EJ15 had it’s first track outing. Here is a pic of Tiago Monteiro driving it, at the Silverstone shakedown. The E15 was the last ever Jordan F1 car.

I think CubeJam or Andy gets the CotD if I’m honest, they were both great
