I hope there was some decent lubrication, ie no further points, involved in letting the FL **** them up the arse.

Utter garbage. I hated the pseudo angst set to a reggae beat. You'll be telling me that UB40 were good next.

Outrageous IMO. I hope Steve Grant takes DSM firmly in hand for this. Not too firmly though, he doesn't like it when it leaves marks.

I've put a thread into TMS for the less reverent comments.

Magny Cours is an awful track.

Pinnacle will sort this. I like the way they're not sucking the FL over the issues they have.

Not quite quick enough WG.

Thanks, Copey. When can I start?

Yes, it all looks good in principle but I reckon on 75% job cuts to get back to the 90s spending they're talking about. Ah well.

Still no. I don't know if that's too far round or not far enough though. I'd guess the latter. I did lol when I zoomed in on the Renault shirt and that baldy bloke is sound asleep. There were 4 of us, all in Renault fleeces, one Mild Seven and three ING ones, sat together at the top of the banking.

No. We were slightly out of shot to the right I think. There was a Spongebob on a stick about 30 or 40 yards to our left (your right).

TBH, I can't find any official confirmation of any of this yet. Just a bit of speculation on Pitpass.com.

Although it looks like FOTA have achieved their main objective, the removal of Max Mosley at the end of his tenure this season.

FOTA would've ****ed over the FIA championship. I'm slightly disappointed if Stevo's on the money tbh.

I can't quite focus, must be my eyes.

We were on the banking just to the right of the outside of Club (from your perspective) by then. I have a couple of nice shots of Bourdais losing his front wing at the entry to Club but as I took 1800 pics I'm still ploughing my way through them. Mind you, about 1000 are of Alonso crawling all over Heidfeld through the Vale-Club complex. Bloody mobile German roadblock.

I can answer that. It's 75% the machine and 25% the man, assuming both are capable drivers. Even Fisichella managed a couple of wins during Alonso's championship years. I'd expect Schumi to beat most people in the Fxx with the possible exception of Marc Gene, who spends his entire working week pounding round the Ferrari test track fine tuning their exotica.

It looks like a coldsore scab. He's had one on SkySports before so I guess he suffers from them. They can be stress related, which would figure right now.

I assume there's a small trailer attached.

Fight the points. Don't bow to the FL.

Lol.

Lousy race from my perspective, although the scraps between Lewis, Nelson and Fernando were entertaining. Lewis did some nice donuts in front of us, at Club corner, dunno if the TV picked up that. Nice to see how much his arrogance has peeled away this year. It's done him the world of good and made him more appealing to non fans.

I got sunburned today. Not much else to report. I'll post a few car pics when the weekend's done and I've had a look through them and deleted all the images of empty track.

Bernie used to have but the EU forced him to repeal that under competition law. I'm not sure how that stands in non EU countries, but frankly, who cares? Canada, USA, Adelaide and others are all available.
