Not OT but thought this would get to the most F1 fans as possible - BBC 4 are airing F1s 60th anniversary in a few mins (9pm). Think its a repeat though!

The 60th anniversary of Formula 1 is celebrated by a unique gathering of eighteen world champions at the season-opening Grand Prix of 2010. Bahrain's ultra-modern desert circuit is a world away from the post-war austerity of F1's first ever race at Silverstone in 1950 and yet, as legends such as Jackie Stewart, Michael Schumacher, Nigel Mansell and Lewis Hamilton share their racing experiences, it seems that some things never change.

how did I miss seeing that.

Thanks for heads up.

 

[Skeeter]

Yeah its a repeat from a while ago (its based around Bahrain from 2009 I think?).

Its a good watch though.

 

[Duke]

Yeah is a repeat but worth watching.

Reports that Lewis has proposed. Hopefully that's what he's been worried about and can get back to form

"My family all like him. The good spirit is there."

"When he walked into the house for the first time he picked up one of the babies. That went down very well."

...were they just laying all about the place?!

Of all the women in all the world, he chooses Nicole ShirtSwinger?

 

[synaesthesia]

He could have picked Eddie Jordan.

What exactly is wrong with her?

More importantly however is that there is a GP this weekend! C'mon Acid, where's that thread

Each to their own, I suppose.

it's not Wednesday yet, you get them on a Tuesday if your really lucky.

Jake asked on Twitter for suggestions for a feature for the build up this weekend. Apparently he was inundated with requests for a feature on the old 'Ring. Fingers crossed.

Just saw that Webber is on Question of Sport tonight, BBC1 10.35pm.

You make it sound like you know her

Isn't that the general idea?

Interesting that Webber is now saying this...

Webber has told close friends in England that he believes his car is being "restricted" and that he has been given a slower car to drive this season than his fellow driver Sebastian Vettel.

If that is true, then that is VERY interesting.

I argued against this sort of thing happening, mainly because if it was happening, you would definitely hear Webber making noises about it. It would appear that he is now making noises.

I still find it hard to believe that any team would purposely handicap (or restrict) any of their cars. This is a very risky strategy.
