Listen to her music? Not a ****ing chance.

As much as it pains me to say it, Formula 1 probably needs Ferrari more than Ferrari needs F1. They are the biggest global name in the sport, with the most recognisable branding, and produce some of the most desirable cars on the planet. They have the biggest following in the sport and their popularity draws in millions of paying viewers and spectators worldwide. They DO get their wrists slapped from time to time, that can't be denied, but it's fair to say that their interpretation of the rulebook often differs to that of everyone else and with no perceptible consequences.

No, it wasn't you.

There's not usually time to do that.

I meant, it takes massive self-control not to run off when I catch you looking at me funny.

I confess, it takes massive self-control.

I don't see that it does. I take it to mean they can't be boyfriend and girlfriend, regardless of sexual activity.

Ah, the highly successful Southampton Football Club model. You don't actually want to qualify then?

It doesn't say 'sexual'.

Isn't this something you take part in regularly in Scandinavia?

The only track laid down by gn'r that doesn't appear on my iPod. It's a goddamn awful song and soooooooooooo fricking long too.

Well "we" think it's an unfair penalty and are not surprised McLaren are appealing. The only problem with the appeal is that the FIA are entitled to extend/expand the penalty if the appeal fails. This is to prevent teams calling for the rather expensive appeal process for every small decision.

Ebay classifieds get a lot of views too.

How much for just the Kefs?

Ah come on. What's the worst that can happen? Instant and total anihilation? That's not so bad. It's got to be better than this slow and painful decline into disasterous climate change that I'm apparently responsible for.

Not sure I'd want a beer that someone had opened with their footwear.

Blimey, he's got balls.

Kimi's take on the situation. Fair play to the bloke... In a sensational turnaround, a flash from La Gazzetta dello Sport quotes defending World Champion Kimi Raikkonen as being prepared to testify on behalf of arch rival Lewis Hamilton at the FIA hearing that will result from Vodafone McLaren Mercedes' protest of the penalty imposed on Hamilton after the Belgian Grand Prix. "I don't care what the stewards said, as far as I was concerned, Hamilton let me by as we passed the pits", said Raikkonen in Geneva today. "I got ahead, I tried to defend the position and the race was on again. My car was for sure very difficult on the prime tyres in the rain and Lewis got by me into the hairpin. That was that." Raikkonen went on, "For sure, I don't like to lose but I don't like to win through stupid decisions. People say I have lost the love (for F1) but yesterday I showed that second was not what I wanted. There are five races to go and I plan to win them all. I'm not the sort to give up that easily." Asked if he was prepared to testify to that effect if the McLaren protest goes to the FIA, Raikkonen simply said, "Yes, why not." Ferrari team principal Stefano Domenicali declined to comment on Raikkonen's statement but technical director Aldo Costa admitted the Scuderia was not pleased. "Our driver has a view but the team believes the stewards and the FIA have all the information they need. We will be talking to our driver during the week," Costa told Gazzetta dello Sport.

The one near the end of Chickenhall Lane in Eastleigh/Bishopstoke. It's ridiculous how fast it changes to red when someone presses the button. I've seen more than one rear-end bump as a result of that.
