I've been meaning to ask this for a while, and a discussion in another thread promted me to ask:

Where are you from?

Those who live in another country where they are born, pick the one you want.
If your country is missing from the list, don' take it personally. I'm going by memory here, if your's is missing, write it down, just might make the list if there still is any room :)

[N]

Why not just have "other countries" added to the list as well?

[jso1985]

I'm from Bolivia.

"where the heck is that?" is your thinking? can't blame you :p

[Mark]

Everyone knows where Boliva is. Although most often it is in the sentence "Bolivan drugs cartel" :p

[donKey jote]

I'm a donkey so I can't decide on a single country to identify with... UK (boo :p : ) and Spain (olé :bandit: ) would be in the mix, together with Turkey, Èire and Germany I suppose :dozey: .

I guess Europe would be my choice, but it's not a country yet :D

Something wrong with this poll :confused: I know at least 6 Finns, 3 Spaniard, 3 Indian, and 1 useless Greek :p : who post here... where are they ? :hmph:

[Storm]

1 Indian on board!

Tonto Jefe Y! has been missing for ages (if you read this Jefe, send me a PM, I lost your cell phone number), still 2 more around though.

As for the Greek guy....where the hell is he?
pino, did you vote for Denmark? :p :

[pino]

pino, did you vote for Denmark? :p :

Denmark's not in the poll, so I could not :p :

[cosmicpanda]

*puts himself down for New Zealand*

[janneppi]

Denmark's not on the list since i couldn't think of anyone else from there besides pino. ;)
I tried to get in the poll countries where I know at least two people would be on the forums.

France is a exception, I don't know any French people on the F1 side, but according to the EU rules they have to be included. :D

[Donney]

The Spanish representative has already voted. :p

[F1boat]

I am from Bulgaria.

[tstran17_88]

From the land of ice and snow... :D

[pino]

From the land of ice and snow... :D

Finland ? :p :

[52Paddy]

Republic of Ireland over here :wave:

[A Scotsman]

Scotland.....

[Mifune]

Japan.

[jso1985]

Everyone knows where Boliva is. Although most often it is in the sentence "Bolivan drugs cartel" :p

Cool! that means my "products" are getting into the EU market :p :p imp:

Bolivia was shown pretty much accurate on Scarface... wonder if Quantum of Solace will be the same

[ioan]

Tough choice between Romania, France and lately Austria!
I'll go for Romania, cause Austria isn't in the list, and janneppi says he knows no F1 fan from France! :p :

[tstran17_88]

Finland ? :p :Close...Wisconsin!

[52Paddy]

Since Ireland still hasn't shown up in the poll, I've voted for Greece. My grandmother was from Cyprus which makes me 1/4 Cypriot. Greece is as close a country I could relate to myself from the list, and I've never even been there!

[aryan]

*puts himself down for New Zealand*

They should just call it Australasia and be done with both :p

[aryan]

I just realised I've changed by flag about 4 times since I've been on this forum; each time to reflect the country I lived in, and now, it reflects none!

Seriously, for those of us who are born in a country other than the one we live in, this flag thing is an issue! If only we could have two flags there... Like they play 2 national anthems for the winner of a GP :p

[jens]

According to the voting results I have to ask, where are the other Estonians? :p :

[donKey jote]

Tell me about it.. I was born in Turkey and they're not in the EU yet ! :p : :dozey: :D

Look mate, when I said that I was putting myself down for New Zealand I didn't mean that I was going to put myself down that far :D

[Nancy YU]

:D A chinese girl here~

[kalasend]

India is the only available Asian location? Wow....

[Easy Drifter]

If bowers has voted I think the rest of us from Canuckistan will disown him. :D

[yodasarmpit]

Tell me about it.. I was born in Turkey and they're not in the EU yet ! :p : :dozey: :D

http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/16/16_3_166.gifAnd not likely to be any time soon :)

[PolePosition_1]

Japan.

I visited Osaka when I went to Japan few month back - nice place :)

[ioan]

India is the only available Asian location? Wow....

Fore sure it's the only one that seems to make it into those thin Finnish geography books! :D ;)

[HenryM]

brazil...
at least put the option "other".

[ChrisS]

Put me under "Others" aswell

Cyprus

[schmenke]

According to the voting results I have to ask, where are the other Estonians? :p :


There's one nutcase in particular who hasn't posted in a while :mark:

[truefan72]

where are you from or where do you live?
cause I live in the USA but I'm from Austria

[Coulthard Fan]

England/United Kingdom/Great Britain take you're pick!

[Coulthard Fan]

I have Family from The Republic Of Ireland! So if I was to have a racing helmet it would be a design half Cross Of St George and half Irish flag!
Proud of my heritage!

[gloomyDAY]

'murica-land!

[tfp]

An interesting poll, I have just read an interview with Montezemolo saying he is annoyed (or something, I don't remember) at Bernie for having Grand Prix in countries where there's apparently little interest in F1. He would rather have two races in Italy. How convenient for him....

[steveaki13]

Chelmsford in England.

Also this must be one of the longest gaps between posts. The last post before the one yesterday was 2008. A year before I joined. :eek:

[jens]

I see that UK, USA, Canada and Australia are a clear top4.

Well, I could have guessed that English-speaking nations make up the majority here, but I didn't expect it to be that dominant...

[JasonPotato]

Same as Aki ;) Maybe we live next door to each other hehe but i doubt it

Really angry here, you forgot my country, I understand forgetting a small country, but Texas?, You even included Canada which is not a real country. (I went to the US vs Canada football game a few days ago and I was near a guy who shouted "your country is not even a real country", somewhere in Houston there is a very sad 3rd grade teacher )

[AndyL]

Wow, this is really thread necromancy of the highest order :) I assume it was a deleted spam post that brought it to the top of the list.

[Knock-on]

The Lone Star State IS a country. No individual state could be so equally good and bad in equal measure and still be part of the US!

[Knock-on]

Btw, I'm from Godalming, a republic within the state of Surrey, closely aligned to England and by proxy to the UK, British Isles, Great Britain and the Commonwealth (formally known as The Empire)

[SGWilko]

1 Indian on board!

:p :

Warning - baseless stereotype alert...

Only one - have you checked the roof???? :D

Don't you wish we would one day 'strike back'? ;)

<<Oh, and I'm from the location listed as 'my location' - who'd a thunk it, eh?

[Big Ben]

Transylvania.... but I voted Romania because of a mistake that happened almost 100 years ago.

pino, did you vote for Denmark? :p :

Liar!! You come from Oulton and I have the cut feet to prove it!!!

BTW, how is the lovely Ms Storm. xxxxxxxx

[52Paddy]

Can you replace France, Russia or Belgium with "Ireland"? I said I was from here a few years ago and I still am.

[cali]

Here :s mokin:

[pino]

Ireland added to the poll :)

[52Paddy]

Ireland added to the poll :)

I've no idea why it says "you have already voted in this poll". Maybe, years ago, I selected "blank vote - just show me the results!". :mark:

Thanks anyway!
