"You know"
JPM likes to use the phrase "you know" with frightening regularity. 8 times he uttered it in the press conference........

Mika likes to prefix most expressions with "super"..... super-disappointing, super-happy etc. Perhaps he didn't learn the word "very" when he learnt English.

Getting more than 'yes. it is nice' out of Hakkinen was always an achievement.

interviewer - hakkinen .. why did the chicken cross the road? Hakkinen - yes..........no.....(slip water)...mayb...may..maybe ...maybe you should ask the chicken. Heres some other answers to that question... Jv - who gives a **** about the chicken Ross brawn - the chicken helped by rabbit both on 1 stop strategies did some valuable team work to insure a 1/2 finish for the team safely on the other side Micheal - For sure the chicken crossed the road! why? overall the chickens package was good and reliable so managed to cross the road |

At least GP drivers can string sentences together. There are rugby league players over here who can't put more than 5 words together without going 'um', 'er', 'ah', 'um'......

Well, f1manoz, they might be able to string sentences together in english, but Michael, after all these years at Ferrari STILL CAN'T put a sentence together in Italian. Its a disgrace.

Wasn't Gilles Villeneuve the inventor of the "for sure" phrase?

Liz, exactly, he speaks near perfect Italian, and so did Gilles, and nearly every other Ferrari driver (even Berger). Most of them have the advantage of speaking another closely related language (french, spanish, portuguese, etc), but that is a small excuse. If they paid me $40 million per year, I would take the time to learn the language.

You need to watch 'Scarface' (1983 Brian de Palma version) for some great South American lingo - "I don' like F*****g Colombians OK?" etc.
