Formula 1

Hamilton needs to work on his starts. He cocked it up again today.

Hamilton will have to do a good start this weekend as he's got a 5 place grid penalty for a gearbox change.

Also letting other forum members who are F1 fans that there is an official Formula 1 model collection to collect from your local shop or newsagent starting this week

Called Formula 1: The Car Collection. Each issue (out fortnightly) is a detailed 1:43 scale model of an F1 car in its authentic livery along with a magazine about the car and the year it was raced

Got issue 1 today

Half watched the highlights on Channel4. by christ it was painful.
Their coverage is awful, probably even worse then the old ITV days, ads here there and everywhere, just as it gets interesting (at least we didn't miss anything as it was highlights not live), and the lead presenter bloke, can't even recall his name, but he's just a rent-a-presenter, usually does the 'yoof' type shows, I'm not aware he has any particular knowledge of F1 (if he has, he certainly didn't display it today).
The race itself had a few more spills and thrills than the average race these days, but somehow their coverage just didn't make it feel that way for me.

This was the first race I've watched any of so far this year, and on this evidence, I won't go out of my way to watch many more.

That would have been Steve Jones

That's the fella

steve jones thinks every woman loves him, and every guy wants to be his mate..... he's got a sad truth coming one day....!! i've never liked the knob.
(oh, i like knobs in general, just not that kind...lol)
