A lot of this depends on each person's perspective and knowledge of history. For the majority that occupy forums like this, since it's English-speaking and heavily influenced by British tabloid media, such drivers as Mansell and Hamilton dominate, while others are casually dismissed. I could not ag...

Sticking with the cowboy/horse theme.... A cowboy rides into town, hitches his horse to the a rail then walks around and lifts the tail of his horse and plants a big wet kiss right on its pickle. a fellow watching all this asks him "Say, why did you kiss your horse on his pickle?" and the ...

I have a flagpole outside my house up which, if the result warrants it, I run a flag. We also open a bottle of champagne as an aperitif that evening. Less than favourable result? leave up the windsock and eat bread and water.

No. It also penalizes the poor SoB stuck behind Mr Wide'n'slow. And what happens when the turbo kicks back in? Penalties also need to be seen by the spectator; the TV viewer may get it but those actually in the crowd may not know why X suddenly slowed.

I left UK over twenty years ago so I'm not really current but do you really want to go somewhere where the economy is going down the crapper? Do you believe they won't tax you up the ying-yang to get out of that? I think proximity and ease of travel may be something of an illusion; what's another co...

I don't have a problem with Churchill on the fiver (I no longer live in the UK anyway) What I do have a problem with is the holier than thou types who come up with some specious argument against anyone you might want on a banknote.

Maybe the problem is that none of the women Moss knows have the mental aptitude for F1. So the guy knows the wrong women, you can't crucify him for that.

Detours. A few guys leaning on shovels, some traffic cones and a few confusing signs that run out of directions once you're thoroughly lost and maybe enforced by the odd road roller here and there.

No. To whom are you trying to prove your worth? None listed seem to be the sort of people I would seek to prove anything to.

Once we didn't so much evade security by breaking in as much as we failed to leave. Went to Brands Hatch for the Friday and camped/hid in woods Friday and Saturday night. remember also "borrowing" a punnet of strawberries from Tyrell as we strolled through paddock. Try that now and they'd ...

I too am self-employed and while I can't say I hate the job there are certainly occasions when I would much rather be doing ANYTHING else!! the retirement home is almost complete, but not close to being paid for yet so a few more years to go.

About time for this thread to move up the board again so: Jarno Trulli's Grappa Don't know if it's available in UK (why would it not be?) but found some in the SAQ in Montreal and it's pretty damned good stuff. Also some of his wine is none too shabby either.

I once read a review of a Van Morrison show (a musician I greatly like) which said "Sings like an angel - looks like a potato" Di Resta, I have to say looks pretty spud like and performs at a very average level Case closed.

One way or another they will get it out of you.

In some ways I hope Mercedes does not buy it. I went to the Mercedes museum a couple of years ago, the building itself is amazing but the contents are thoroughly mind-blowing. I think, however that you get overloaded and by the time you get to this it's going to be "Oh yeah, Fangio's car, ho hu...

Apologies if it's already been asked and answered, but this year we're planning on going to the Belgian Grand Prix seeing as I'm 21 and the mother is 50.

This should probably be in the joke thread but it's spider related. A guy met his friend who told him that spiders' ears are in their legs and to prove it he had a trained spider who would come when called. Sure enough he put the spider in the centre of the table and called his name "Here Spide...

I have often thought about this. I hunt (for food not for sport) and I must admit that it does worry me if I don't achieve a quick, clean kill. I also have, over the years, adopted several stray mutts (to offset the hunting guilt??) and my wife is convinced some have shown gratitude. I don't know ab...

F1 Canuck. Could not agree more. By far the most civilised way to go is via Metro but I would add that leaving the circuit at the end of the day may be better by walking (I have a place in Old Montreal so I'm lucky) but it beats having your nose jammed in someone's armpit on a crowded Metro train.
