Fisichella lost his drivers license due speeding

[racer_f50]

Ofcourse he will get his license back some day, but I started thinking that can a driver participate in GP if he doesn't have a valid civil drivers license? I suppose it is not necessary?
I guess I was under the impression racing required it's own licensing, separate from road licenses.

isn't it a Super-license required for F1?

From what I've heard you don't need a regular drivers-license to participate in F1.

Yeah what a great excuse...what exactly is he going to do if he gets there 2 minutes sooner? Cure him? If he was so worried, ask a nearby cop for an escort with lights (like men do when their wives go into labor)

hehe, when f1 drivers break the limit they go for it....montoya got caught for doing 204 in a 130, Button doing 144mph, ralf's been caught numerous times...all in bmws
