  1. I mean, obviously torn off via the background, but still rather good.
  2. Official footage of the Zonda R taking the track in 6m 47s. Sweet.
  3. Just. ****ing. Awesome. http://www.davidicke.com/forum/showthread.php?t=94278&page=1
  4. Digging round in the bins and trolleys for receipts where the purchasers hasn't had the points added to their club card, then taking that receipt to the customer services area and getting the points put on yours. Legally dubious (gaining monies by deception) and risky (only use receipts for cash rather than card transactions in case it was a stolen/cloned card). Tesco et al. frown on it, but cant do anything about it. The Police wont get involved as all you have to say is that it was from a friend you said you could have the points on your card.
  5. I read it as: "I'm pretty confident we can (get a good) start (to) the season with the squad we've got" rather than: "I'm pretty confident (no-one will leave and) we can start the season with the squad we've got "

    Quick Quiz

    30. pretty easy (if American-slanted) questions TBF.
  7. Im sure you would find making sweeping statements easier with a bigger brush.
  8. Clearly... Aggressive little fellow, aint ya?
  9. He is does act like a brat, the enfant terrible of F1 at the moment, but I would guess most drivers would be on the the radio to the team "moaning" about a team mate holding them up if they were faster than them. F1 driver, by nature of the beast have to have pretty massive egos to allow them to believe in what they do. Can you say tha Hamilton wouldn't be on the radio to McLaren if Button was ahead on track and holding him up? Would Vettel not be "moaning" to RBR is Webber was in his way? of course they would. And of course the team would probably do something about it; be that switching the slower driver to a fuel saving mix, or telling them to converse tyres whatever. It happens in every race. It shouldnt, but it does. Now the FIA have a high profile case it obviously took place (based on the radio calls, even a toddler could work out what Smedley was getting at), they needed to come down harder that a pathetic 60K fine. 2 more points whislt Im here that I want to get my off my chest: 1. How come no is talking about Webber getting back 2 places he lost at the start by going off track on the first corner? At the approach, both Button and Hamilton had track position over him, but then he went wide and re-joined in front of them. WTF? 2. I was looking forward to no fuel stops this season, but Im now getting bored of the need to conserve mid way through the race. The FIA or someone needs to change something in the rules to make sure EVERY car starts with enough fuel for 110% of the race, and they should only be allowed to change fuel mix during pre-race laps, SC laps, in-laps, out-laps and after the race.
  10. Indeed. At least McLaren and RBR had the brains to tell Hamilton and Webber to switch to a different fuel mix when Button and Vettel needed to get by this season....
  11. Quite simply a 60K fine is stupid. The FIA should have some balls and give Alonso a 1 place deduction, so the 2 Ferraris finish the other way round. Plus wipe of the TEAM points off the board for Ferrari for the race. This punishes the team TOTALLY whilst not being too harsh on the drivers. Amazingly, I dont blame Alonso at all. Despite not liking him really, he wasnt to blame. Neither was Massa really, despite showing that he has no backbone at all. They both were under pressure from Ferrari to make the swap. Remind me, who is the head of the FIA now then? Jean Todt I think. Of course, he has no Ferrari connections at all. Back markers, fuel mix selected, tyre wear, brake wear, yellow flag, blue flag, debris, cornering error... a 1 seconds difference between 2 Team cars is easy to "hide" if needs be and makes it totally un-workable.
  12. Nor ashamed to admit I had a tear in my eye.
  13. Dog forgot who he was logged in as for a second there.
  14. Agree with Eric, if that hasnt got a **** it certainly used to.
  15. Holy thread resurrection Batman!
  16. PS. I assume you are looking at a mirror.
  17. The error is in bold.
  18. Thought he was touring with Paradise Lost.
  19. Malaria my arse, a badly covered up operation of some sort IMHO.
  20. Calling Gregg Wallace a "celebrity chef" is akin to calling Jake Humphrey a Formula 1 driver.
  21. Seems you only have 2 now... lol!
