  1. Once he'd got past all the slower cars on the screwed up grid, he got stuck behind the Force India, and was lucky that Button got his tyre change completely wrong. How much overtaking was there in the last 20 laps ?
  2. Presumably, this : http://www.express.co.uk/posts/view/167069/Eurocrats-want-to-rename-Channel although the Mail ran this one 2 years ago http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-561342/EU-wipes-England-map--Gordon-Brown-flies-flag-St-George-Downing-Street.html I think some completely bogus anti-EU Tory vote catching is underway. On May 8th 2008, after the Mail article, there were 2 written Parliamentary questions tabled by Greg Knight MP : Mr. Greg Knight: To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what discussions he has had with his EU counterparts on attempts to rename the English Channel. [204026] Meg Munn [holding answer 8 May 2008]: My right hon. Friend the Foreign Secretary has not discussed the renaming of the English Channel with EU counterparts. Mr. Greg Knight: To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will make it his policy to oppose any moves to change the name of the English Channel at the next United Nations Conference on the Standardization of Geographical Names. [204027] Meg Munn [holding answer 8 May 2008]: The next UN Conference on the Standardisation of Geographical Names is in 2012. The Conference cannot legislate, or pass resolutions, on renaming specific geographical locations. We are unaware of any move to rename the English Channel. ( Taken from Hansard )

  5. resignation
  6. Modern tracks that limit overtaking, in 3rd world countries that have no heritage, ( just because Bernie is chasing more $US ), and persisting with STUPID rules such as having to use two different tyre compounds regardless of conditions, thereby compromising the setup and performance of the cars. And why on earth is the Malaysian GP scheduled to start at a time of day when everybody on the planet knows it is going to rain like a biblical flood ?
