  1. I wonder how long it take to take delivery of a McLaren 650S This guy drove it for 10 minutes and decided to park it inside a tree http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2016/05/03/10/33C6E9EA00000578-0-image-a-42_1462268037330.jpg
  2. Rather go back to basics http://40.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lw3o6xUytq1qapwfro1_1280.jpg
  3. I realise it is a conceptual idea, but surely it will compromise air flow into the engine intake.
  4. Dr Seuss was smoking some good stuff when he come up with this list http://i1.wp.com/www.grandprix247.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Best-of-all-time-F1-drivers.png?w=750
  5. I think they have crossed wires. The overtake button is actually the reverse button. Maybe they should move one of them as they are so close together.
  6. Sad news James Taylor has to retire due to serious heart condition http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/content/story/997033.html
  7. Brilliant qualifying. Really exciting seeing drivers pushed to the limit as they stride down the pit lane to be weighed. Bahrain typifies all that is wrong in F1. No place for spectators out on the track. No cars on the track. But Bernie still gets his money.
  8. Donald must have a little smile on his face
  9. How the hell did Bangladeah manage to lose that one?
  10. I feel sorry for the spectators at the track. Qualifying ends with 3 minutes left to run. Not good for the sport at all
  11. so what happened to the Force India deal then?
  12. Still the best sponsor http://wtf1.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/durex.jpg Followed by this http://www.crankandpiston.com/brain/media/2014/01/Ten-Unexpectedly-Cool-Formula-1-Liveries-22.jpg
  13. The good old days http://cdn-6.motorsport.com/static/img/amp/400000/450000/450000/450700/450756/s6_26089/f1-monaco-grand-prix-historique-2014-alain-prost-with-his-1983-renault-f1.jpg
  14. I hope it is more yellow in sunlight
  15. Calling T20 cricket is a bit like saying rugby union and rugby league are the same sport. All they have in common is the equipment used and the pitch they play on.
  16. She who must be obeyed gave me permission to watch the "cricket" last night. I'm not a fan of this T20 stuff, but if they insist in calling it "cricket" then they need to change a few things. 1. No bowlers, just use a bowling machine 2. All runs scored on the leg side using an ugly baseball slog count half 3. Batsmen who score two consecutive boundaries using this ugly baseball shot are to be roasted on the pitch side flames. 4. Batsmen caught in the crowd are out. 5. Boundaries scored by classical cover drives are rewarded by a free hit 6. Any batsmen wondering around his crease before the ball is bowled is to have his feet nailed to the floor. I'm just a grumpy old fart who just likes watching real Test cricket.
  17. Merc's version of the halo http://ichef.bbci.co.uk/live-experience/cps/512/cpsprodpb/vivo/live/images/2016/3/4/tweet-705678504302514177-2.jpg
  18. Now the new qualifying farce has been put on hold until new software is developed. What are they going to do? Have a large flashing sign on the eliminated drivers steering wheel that says "Game Over"
  19. I see complete chaos with the completion of a lap versus the elimination of a driver. Why 90 seconds? Last year only 9 of the 19 races had a lap time under 90 seconds. Rather make it 3 minutes and eliminate 2 drivers. That will reduce the congestion of drivers trying to complete their lap before the cut off.
  20. Fletcher only had one bad season of wrecking things. The Surtees team were never the same after Jody took out all three cars at Silverstone
  21. You would battle to recognise the P34 if Maldonado drove it. It would only have 4 wheels.
  22. #Berniemustfall DRS is bad enough, now they want to mix up the starting order http://www.wheels24.co.za/FormulaOne/f1-considers-reversing-the-grid-for-better-races-20160223
  23. This is the first time in 45 years of following F1 that I'm not actually interested in watching any of the races. I might just watch the occasional 5 minute highlight package on Catchup
  24. Shows you what a 9 inch wallet can do for an old guy.
