FIA Bans Driver Performance Radio Communications. The FIA has banned communication between teams and their drivers relating to the performance of the car. As part of the push to improve the overall product the FIA has acted to ban communications which appear to make driving in F1 seem too easy. The 2014 title fight between Nico Rosberg and Lewis Hamilton this year has seen various examples of each driver being fed information about where the other is quicker in relation to their own lap times, something which is commonplace up and down the grid. Radio messages can also advise drivers where to make changes to aid car performance but FIA race director Charlie Whiting has written to all teams to say these messages will be banned with immediate effect. The FIA is citing Article 20.1 of its Sporting Regulations which states: "The driver must drive the car alone and unaided." The message from Whiting read: "In order to ensure that the requirements of Article 20.1 of the F1 sporting regulations are respected at all times FIA intends to rigorously enforce this regulation with immediate effect. Therefore, no radio conversation from pit to driver may include any information that is related to the performance of the car or driver." This has been prompted due to fears the amount of communication between drivers and their race engineers during races makes it seem like drivers are 'puppets' behind the wheel. One example which gained attention this season was Rosberg asking his race engineer for "driving advice" in Germany - a request not limited to the German but a majority if not all F1's drivers. Teams will still have the freedom to advise drivers on pit-stop strategies and safety issues, and should ensure dramatic radio conversations remain for TV purposes. The ban is expected to be discussed further in Singapore to clarify what is and is not permitted.

Another day of chaos in Town due to bicycles..!! The Tour of Britain is taking place on Sunday 14 September. Road closures will be in place in Central London from 03:00 until about 23:00, in particular in the Whitehall and Westminster areas and both Westminster and Southwark Bridges will be closed. Drivers are advised to completely avoid the area. Tube and rail will be the best way to get around central London on the day, although stations in the area will be busier than usual. Buses in and around the event area will be on diversion or will stop short of their normal destination. A number of Barclays Cycle Hire docking stations will also be out of service.

A woman goes to her boyfriend's parents' house for dinner. This is her first time meeting the family and she is very nervous. They all sit down and begin eating a fine meal. The woman is beginning to feel a little discomfort, thanks to her nervousness and the broccoli casserole. The gas pains are almost making her eyes water. Left with no other choice, she decides to relieve herself a bit and lets out a dainty little fart. It wasn't loud, but everyone at the table heard the p oot. Before she even had a chance to be embarrassed, her boyfriend's father looked over at the dog that had been snoozing at the women's feet, and said in a rather stern voice, "Ginger!" The woman thought, "This is great!" and a big smile came across her face. A couple minutes later, she was beginning to feel the pain again. This time, she didn't hesitate. She let a much louder and longer fart rip. The father again looked at the dog and yelled, "Dammit, Ginger!" Once again the woman smiled and thought, "Yes!" A few minutes later the woman had to let another one rip. This time she didn't even think about it. She let rip a fart that rivaled a train whistle blowing. Again, the father looked at the dog with disgust and yelled, "Dammit, Ginger, get away from her before she sh1T's on you!"

What Montezemolo exit means for Ferrari While claims that Formula 1 needs Ferrari have long divided opinion, there is one undeniable truth: Ferrari needs F1 success. As Maranello digests the news that Luca di Montezemolo's 23-year reign as company chairman is coming to an end, it is clear that struggles on track have acted as the catalyst for change. Ahead of expected record profits for Ferrari's road car division, it was telling that in the statement confirming di Montezemolo's departure its future chairman Sergio Marchionne made reference to its F1 difficulties. "Luca and I have discussed the future of Ferrari at length," said the Fiat CEO. "And our mutual desire to see Ferrari achieve its true potential on the track has led to misunderstandings which became clearly visible over the last weekend." Indeed, as Ferrari was suffering its worst showing at the Italian Grand Prix since 2005, Marchionne was telling Italian media just how unhappy he was with the way things in F1 were going. "The important thing for Ferrari is not just financial results, but winning," he said. "For the last six years we have struggled like hell despite the best drivers. "Look, both [Fernando] Alonso and [Kimi] Raikkonen are world champions, both of them. We just can't... I'm terribly upset, we have been watching for a long time, these things are not well." Doing better in F1 is essential - and something that di Montezemolo and Marchionne agreed had to happen. But there were clearly differences of opinion about how that could be achieved. For while di Montezemolo may have favoured the return of old-school factors like unlimited testing, a ramping up of budgets and a hark back to the glory days of Michael Schumacher, Ross Brawn and Jean Todt, the reality is that the world has changed. F1 has been dominated in recent years by relatively new teams like Red Bull and Mercedes, whose focus is not on engineering brilliance but on simply going out there and doing everything they can for results. Ferrari's long-time rival McLaren has openly admitted that it has had to learn to become a 'racing team' again and not an 'engineering company.' Indeed, that break from the past - and an understanding that big change is needed - is something that Ferrari's new team boss Marco Mattiacci talked about earlier this year "I think that Ferrari is going to look different. And the story will tell if it will be better," Mattiacci told AUTOSPORT. "But the change will be across the board - most importantly cultural change and discontinuity. These are the most important things." In Marchionne, Mattiacci finds someone clearly ready to embrace the big changes that are necessary. This is about the future now - and a new way of doing things at Maranello. Winning in F1 is not optional for Ferrari. It is a prerequisite. inShare0
