See how much we miss you when you're not around

Fair enough - patience is a virtue and all that. Certainly hope it gets rewarded in time.

I thought the single lappery was quite pure!...We got to see every move of every car, visual and timed sectors to compare, and each team got a chance to get total exposure for their vital sponsors and we got the critics comments on every move good or bad of each drivers efforts.

When everones out together you can miss a good run and drivers got laps hot messed up by drivers on slow down laps...remember it cost the life Gilles!!!

But I'm fascinated to see how this new 'Devil takes the hindmost' group works out though.

Remember the UK TV advert...Dime Bar?...
"DIME BAR!"..."DIME BAR!" .........."4 CARS"! ?

No?...Suit yourself!

I assume that the rear suspension will have to be re-worked to fit the gearbox that they use with the Honda V8.

It just might work!

That's a bit 'Hairest'! and rather un-PC mate!...He's medium brown actually mate! My Chinese business friend told me that they call Europeans 'Amour' which means 'Red-head' which applies to any of us with non jet black hair!

As regards your second 'pearl of wisdom' thats stating the 'bleeding obvious'

And at the time he had to make a decision for his 2006 plans Super Aguri looked decidedly out of the running, otherwise Im sure Honda would have been interested in bringing him over.

Or as Daniel Wheldon was quoted after his Indy win "I only want to drive in F1 for a team that lets me GO for the championship" Hahahaha now theres a guy who has a handle on this F1 game! Hahahaha

Oooohhh....harsh........but fair. But then again saying "well I'm going to potter around in this series for another 15 years until I'm old and grey" doesn't really make good copy now does it
