The image at the top is a bit fuzzy, try saving it as a Gif, it's also a little large, which means the main text doesn't start until half-way down the page, and your F1 news and F1 2004 images aren't level (in Moz at least). Few more pics of cars might not go a miss either.
Otherwise, and nice clean layout.

Tested in IE6 56k modem 800x600. Loads reasonably fast. Main content seems to start quite a way down the page. The main graphic is a bit fuzzy. Much too wide for 800x600. Might be nice if the Amazon shop diplayed something to do with F1. Otherwise, a good design. Good luck with it.

Thanks for your comments...
I think im going to redesign my sites logo to make it smaller and sharper as several persons have suggested this.
Could anyone else (preferably using netscape) test the site as well, because I only use IE6
Once again thanks for your comments

Hi Jim,
Looks the same in NS as it does in IE, to me at least. 
My only suggestions would be to; carry that Global Nav at the top of the Home Page across the entire site, rather than the current Return Home links. I'd also standardise where the content sits on the page; on some it is as on the home page, others it is higher up the page - also standardising the width of the content background will make for a more streamlined experience for the user.
Finally, the Home link on the Feedback page doesn't work. 
It'd be worth your while downloading several alternative browsers for testing, I know it's a chore but it makes for better results at the end of the day - without having to rely on third-party comments (although these are always useful at some stage of the build/deployment of a site).
TFC Nothing is a problem for me...

Ive now standardised my pages and made the logo smaller and less blury.
I will look to add more F1 car pictures and some F1 products onto the 'shop' page in the future
Thank you for your comments, any further comments are very welcome.

I looked at both versions when you asked before and would say that the latest one is definitely an improvement. It didn't all fit in my 800x600 screen but that was no big deal and I would have liked to see the chequered flag behind the logo as I think you had it once before (I liked that), but otherwise, it's great. It appears to download much faster now (almost instant), but maybe I was using the old dinosaur computer back then as this one had problems.
Great job all in all, good luck with it

Thanks Webby, glad you liked it. I think some of the reason its quicker to load is that I used Dreamweaver MX2004 instead of Frontpage 2000, which definately is a better program for the job. I would recomend that any one who is serious about websites buys Studio MX 2004 (especially at student prices) as it is a world above the rest. Fireworks is paticularly useful at reducing your images file size.
Thanks once again to everyone who commented
