  8. true... Just take some tie wraps and strap them together with a piece of cardboard or newspaper in between if your worried about scratching them.
  9. This is probably true. Red Bull’s Adrian Newey has criticised the sport’s technical regulations as restrictive and has warned that there’s a slide towards a ‘GP1’ format. GP2 and GP3 use the same chassis with emphasis on driver skill and not car design.Newey is concerned that Formula 1 is going the same way. He says that everyone is converging on cars that look more and more similar and has criticised the teams who he says must share some of the blame for the direction that the technical regulations have taken. Mr Newey was speaking in an interview for Motor Sport Magazine.

  16. The dispute between Caterham F1 and more than 40 former employees have taken a new test with the axed staff insisting their dismissal "was done without warning or consultation". A lawyer for the employees revealed last week that they are taking action as "they were sacked without consultation in breach of employment law and are claiming breach of contract and unfair dismissal". However, the Leafield squad announced on Tuesday that they have launched a countersuit as they "seeking compensation for the damages suffered by the team due to the gross misrepresentation of the facts made by all those concerned". The employees have now issued a follow-up statement in which they insist they have legal grounds to take action. "As confirmed in the contracts of employment for those working in the Caterham F1 Team, Caterham F1 is 'the trading name of the Employer and the name of its motor racing team entered into the F1 World Championship'. All those dismissed were employed in the Caterham F1 Team by their operational company Caterham Sports Limited (company number 07042086 previously 1Malaysia Racing Team (UK) Limited). "The dismissal letters were on Caterham F1 Team headed notepaper and the reason for dismissal was given as 'following the change in ownership and, as a result of the current financial position that the new owners have inherited, your position at Caterham Sports Ltd will terminate with immediate effect...You are being dismissed in law for Some Other Substantial Reason.' The Caterham F1 Team website confirms the change of ownership as at 2 July 2014. The summary dismissal of employees from Caterham was done without warning or consultation, which is a breach of employment laws and contract and will result in significant compensation claims. "Regarding matters of pay, those dismissed on 15 July 2014 were advised in writing that they would be paid for 1-15 July. Unless the position has changed, we are informed that those we represent had not yet been paid either on what would have been the usual payroll date of 25 July, or by 28 July. It is understood those we represent who were dismissed on 24 July 2014 may also not yet have been paid for July. If those dismissed have now been paid that would obviously be very welcome. "Lawyers for those who have been dismissed wrote to Caterham on 25 July 2014 urging a response to the above matters and inviting settlement either through ACAS or in face to face discussions. A response from Caterham to this letter is awaited."

  18. I posted this up a while back, but as its this weekend, think its worth another mention as there will be chaos in London this weekend.

Roads and bridges will be closed from 05:00 until 18:00 • On Sunday 10 August, the event route is between east, central and southwest London and Surrey. There will be extensive road and river crossing closures; roads will be closed from 05:00 and will re-open in phases once the event has passed and it is safe to do so Road users are advised to avoid the affected areas wherever possible. Buses will be on diversion or stop short of their destinations. Tube and Rail will be the best way to get around and enjoy the weekend. Road users will be affected by the following this weekend: Aldgate – There is a southbound closure on Minories between Haydon Street and Goodman's Yard until May 2015. This is while improvement works are carried out on behalf of the City of London. East and central London – There will be road closures on road race routes. • On Saturday, from 05:00 until 19:00, roads in the Royal Docks area around the ExCel London centre will be closed for a race • On Sunday, from 05:00 until 18:00, roads will be closed for races between ExCeL London centre and Central London via Lower Lea Crossing, Limehouse Link, Lower Thames Street, Victoria Embankment and Westminster Bridge Brixton – On Sunday, from 04:30 until 22:00, a street festival will take place.

This is to allow for road resurfacing work. The majority of this overnight work, which is taking place until mid-October, will be at weekends although some work may also take place overnight during the week. Chiswick – The Hogarth flyover is now closed until 06:00 Sunday 31 August, for strengthening and repair work.
