F1 » Ecclestone gives Silverstone final deadline to save British GP

With input from several posters, I think I've finally devised the script to go with the accompanying picture of Greedo and Damon. Note that Darth Bernie has his right hand on Damon's arm and his left arm appears to be bent forward. As brian.launchbury says he has Damon by the balls and has obviously said "give me the money or I'll rip these off!" As Racefan said, and andrew almost said, Damon is launching into the "Do you know what this is, Bernie?" joke. At this point Darth Bernie loses the plot and assumes the dumb, squinty look.

F1 » Lotus F1: We're under pressure to perform – but we will

richard, andrew - to speak ill of Lotii is near sacrilege! If you think a Lotus is a problem over there, consider trying to maintain one over here in the North American colonies. Almost bought one anyway. Twice. How about, Fook It's Always Trouble.

F1 » Lotus F1: We're under pressure to perform – but we will

As a long-time Lotus fan, I'd really rather that the current bunch change to another name - especially given that the Chapman family was opposed. How about starting with an "F" and changing the "o" to and "a".

F1 » Schumacher Mercedes F1 move 'is going to happen'

Anybody other than me recall that EJ debuted a new car graced by a naked model with painted-on clothes? The guy is a screwball but he is an interesting screwball.

F1 » Donington Park lease-holder DVLL put into administration

F1 » Whitmarsh hails McLaren's 2010 F1 line-up

I'm with DJ. Twit is out of his depth. The team needs Ron's touch next year. With Spanker off paddling the senate, RD should be able to make a comback.

F1 » Jenson Button 'has agreed' three-year McLaren deal

F1 Novice - the idea of looping a car at speed has never really appealed to me. It was scary just to watch.

F1 » Jenson Button 'has agreed' three-year McLaren deal

2pac - I think Bruce M. himself initiated the orange paintwork (actually a caramel-orange). All the Can-AM racers were painted orange.

F1 » Jenson Button 'has agreed' three-year McLaren deal

richard - hmmm, daddy Hamilton stirring things up? Maybe we'll see a couple of rounds between daddy Button and daddy Hamilton. Queensberry rules? Things could be exciting at macca next year.

F1 » Mercedes to take over Brawn GP

I've been thinking about this all day and have decided that this is a good thing for Brawn GP. I was worried that Ross would be unable to attract suffiecient sponsorship to run at the front and that would have been a shame. I'm happy for Ross, the team, and for Merc. I think it's also a win for F1.
