If you were able to get up on Sunday morning to catch the first race of the 2010 Formula 1 season in Bahrain, then not only did you get to see a dope race, you got to see Ferrari rise back to the top of the podium with first and second place finishes. Yeah, they only got the top spots because Sebastian Vettel’s car broke down, but whatever. If the pre-season testing and the Bahrain Grand Prix are any indication, Scuderia Ferrari is gonna be a beast. To celebrate their victory, we thought it only right to pay homage to one of the best road cars ever built by the boys in red: the Enzo Ferrari (not the Ferrari Enzo). Built in honor of their founder of the same name, the Enzo was and still is a work of art. Built using knowledge from Ferrari’s F1 endeavors it still remains one of the best super cars ever. Read on to find out why…

For Alexander Ovechkin, physical play is both a gift and a curse: His devastating hits make him the NHL’s most unique superstar, but his penchant for reckless play also makes him one of its most dangerous players. Just ask Brian Campbell. The Blackhawks defenseman suffered a broken clavicle (and busted ribs) after Ovie shoved him from behind during yesterday’s Caps-Hawks matinee. Ovechkin was summarily ejected (and just received a two-game suspension), immediately reopening the NHL’s most polarizing debate: Is Ovechkin a dirty player? We rated the most questionable hits of his career and provided video evidence to let you decide…

Few know that Notre Dame’s Fighting Irish mascot is based on Sean Penn.
Wednesday is St. Patrick’s Day, which means we’ll all be celebrating Irish heritage by acting as disrespectfully, stereotypically Irish as possible. But while non-Celts put on a red wig and brogue and get pissy drunk until they end up yelling at and fighting a pool of their own vomit, there are actual Irish and Irish American celebrities who live up to such Irish stereotypes every day. In honor of the children of Ireland who make St. Paddy so proud, Complex raises a pint o’ green beer to these fine folks…
We’ve been waiting for Consequence to drop his Cons TV album for a minute now, but he’s holding us over with the “Movies On Demand” mixtape, which just dropped over at Nah Right. It has more guest appearances than an entire season of Curb—featuring Asher Roth, Rick Ross, Pharoahe Monch, Styles P, Common, Talib Kweli, Q-Tip, Kanye, Diddy, KiD CuDi, The LOX, John Legend & more.
ARTIST: Consequence MIXTAPE:Movies On Demand WHY IT’S WORTH THE DL: Cons keeps G.O.O.D. company—getting down with ATCQ since the age of 16, collaborating with Kanye and influencing his label-head’s flow. He’s delivered solid verses on tracks leaked last year like “Buggin Out 09′” and his “Whatever You Want” single.
Damn it! Just as we were all set to propagate some unsubstantiated rumors about the forthcoming Modern Warfare 2 map pack—specifically, that there was a map called Complex and we were going to demand having images of our issues programmed in—Infinity Ward had to come along and ruin our fun. IW’s community manager Robert Bowling, aka “the only way to find out anything about Infinity Ward especially since people got fired,” went on Major Nelson’s podcast this morning to talk about the “cure for mapathy” that the company started touting heavy last week.
Here’s what now know: It’ll be 1200 Microsoft points ($14.99, because that extra penny is what makes it a “must-buy” for you!). It’ll be out March 30, which we already knew. Two of them are favorite maps from Call of Duty 4. Oh, and we’ve got names, descriptions, and some journalistically questionable screenshots that we shamelessly grabbed from the intertubes ALLEGEDLY depict the various levels. Check it all after the jump….
We still wake up every morning wishing our girlfriend was as hot as Nicole Scherzinger. [Hollywood Tuna]
Man, the Hollywood Publicity machine did it to us again. We didn’t know too much about Amanda Seyfried’s upcoming movie, Chloe, but now we care A LOT. [Pop Crunch]
Chelsea Handler too drunk to walk? We could never imagine her getting plastered or gettin’ her ass smacked by Akon or spreading her legs for T.I. or… we could go on and on. [Radar]
Matt Kemp must really be putting it on Rihanna because we could have sworn there was some unwritten rule barring a-list celebs from showing up at spring training games. [YBF]
ESPN reporter Erin Andrews will face Michael David Barrett, the Illinois man who pleaded to stalking her and filmed her through peepholes. Dude wouldn’t be facing two years in federal prison if he just looked at these pics instead. [Pop Crunch]
