Stefan Bellof?

The FIA don't just write the rules, they also try to be the interpreters of what they mean. In this case because of the urgency of finding a solution to the tyres coming apart, they seem to have offered an interpretation to accommodate that. They have done this before and been left exposed when a '...

1. L47/R53 2. L5/R6 3.You responded as a right brained person to 11 questions, and you responded as a left brained person to 8 questions. According to the Hemispheric Dominance test, you use your right brain the most. and what does that mean now? In brief, the left side of the brain is used for the...

i think MB may have a chance to get out of this mess. The sporting regulations state that the teams can not "undertake a test" MB lawyers will argue that they did not undertake the test Pirelli did. we do know that this was a Pirelli test so therefore they undertook the test....appears to me a lega...

Seems to me Merc is in trouble, and they know it, otherwise the defense would not be so thin. 1. We had permission. No. Maybe Chatlie gave you some sort of informal nod but that's entirely irrelevant, as he is not FIA or even a legal representative. Even Barnard's nod is highly questionable, we don...

Regardless of the outcome of this, one thing is for certain. The FIA is a shambles. If Charlie Whiting isnt the decision maker in situations like this, his response to the question of the legality of the test should have been. "I'm sorry, this decision isn't my responsibility, please forward your q...

Current: Alonso, closely followed by SV. Why? Both most talented, maybe LH is faster over one lap in equal machinery, but these guys get down when it counts. Sheer determination, focus and intelligent driving. In their own league in today's F1, where I would give Alonso the nudge, by the narrowest o...

Haaa there's gonna be some serious 'eye rolling' going on when people read mine...but since you asked :D Favourite driver: Seb Vettel Reason: Love his personality, think he's a great driver and I respect his work ethic and intelligence. Is he the best?: Along with Fernando Alonso, yes . Admittedly,...

And Horner is British. It's similar to F1 titles etc.

It's about as meaningful and F1 related as winning Big Brother.

I like to remind them how experienced Eddie Irvine was in 1996, driving 2 full seasons for Jordan with not a great record vs teammate Barrichello. I think you should have another look at Irvine at Jordan; although I think Barrichello was deeply touched by seeing Senna die, that doesn't take away th...

For me India and US.

Don't like brand logos and don't like too much frilly details.

Ah I do love these topics :D To all the people saying things to the effect of, "I won't respect him till he wins in a slower car or has a better team mate." Firstly: why should he have to earn YOUR respect? Seriously? Secondly: YOU go compete in F1 and win 3 world titles, if you think you can do an...

For now I voted option 3. Hopefully they won't go Williams' way but there seems to be less and less space for 'independents'. The Perez signing with Telmex backing could work, money talks louder than ever before in F1. If that doesn't pay off, they'll soon become just another team that the big boys ...

Ok, I know this isn't technically what I've been reading (although I did start the Wasp Factory earlier) but my dad said to me yesterday 'you know, Iain Banks is the only reason you read half as much as you do'. As so many of you have mentioned him in light of his recent passing I would like to men...

Two books, really. The Art of Happiness by the Dalia Lama, which is more of a contemplative process and takes more time to 'digest' than to actually read. Since Ian Bank's passing over, I've started on The Player of Games again, one of my favourite sci-if novels and I haven't read it in decades :) ...

I think it's slightly more complex. Otherwise, surely, all would be affected equally. I think fame does play a factor, but more as a katalyst. Some people are more prone to 'unconventional' or even destructive behaviour than others (not unlike addictions, one man can freely take a drink, another tur...

Our 11year old had the task of drawing half a face as his 1st art assignment. I gave him this picture. http://i707.photobucket.com/albums/ww71/Drezick/Art2.jpg Art teacher didn't believe him and he had to do another one.

The Power of Now: A Guide to Spiritual Enlightenment by Eckhart Tolle Veronika Decides to Die Coelho Paulo Both uplifting and special to me. Great reads, nice. Have you tried A New Earth by Tolle? I find it a lot more 'accessible' than The Power of Now, that one took me a long, long time to digest :)

I see nothing wrong with expressing yourself whatever way you want. Cross dressing (amongst other things) is still frowned upon by traditional society though. No matter how liberal people's views are, a lot of people will still perceive this to be 'odd'. We have a tendency to rationalise phenomena w...

Not for the inside info, just for a good gherkin up and a laugh.

I think that's one of the biggest attractions. The history with MS and Ferrari, MS was his idol and he would love to go there because of that. Similar to Hamilton and McLaren. His idol is Senna who is remembered mainly for his Mclaren years so i think, even though he came up into the Mclaren, if he...

He's asking how fast around a track. A fast laptime requires acceleration in many directions.

Yea, sorry, missed that

Great read, thanks. It's admittedly been close to 30 years since I studied physics (at Imperial College fwiw) and haven't worked in the field since. My interest (and subsequent approach) is more philosophical these days, as you may have noticed, and I have found this discussion both educational and ...

So much more eloquent than my replies

I do admire your patience, Jo.
