Nope, it was still double waved yellows at the point he left the circuit: The green flag was shown (correctly) after the obstruction. Points per pound of salary, I bet KMag did better than Button. Alonso won't come cheap. A previous WC should not be in the situation where he has no drive lined up at all, and the choice is between him and a rookie who he comprehensively outscored. I don't really rate Button as an all-time great driver, though. He's good, but he's past his best in F1.

If he's retained then McLaren are silly, or rolling in money. Really Button should've retained some dignity and quit to go to sportscar racing, and left McLaren with no choice. If KMag gets the boot, that's pretty much the end of his F1 career.

Following up on this, the BBC make a good point. If the original schedule is over 20 races, then teams get 5 engines next year. If it was 20 or less, they only get 4 engines. So now they can drop Korea and the teams still get 5 engines for next season without any breaking of the rules.

Also, Northerners can't speak proper English.

The real problem is the people who attended the cruises who didn't self-police. Now they've ruined it for everyone. If they'd have stopped their 'mates' from driving like a knobheads then this wouldn't have got so bad.

They're right. He was still doing 78mph when he hit the crane, and although his engine didn't cut when he hit both pedals it's reasonable to say that although no speed was added, no speed was lost either. 80mph through double waved yellows on tyres past their best in a downforce car with no downforce is reckless at the very least. Every other drive was just as guilty that day of the same thing: Lewis, Alonso, Button et al. They just got lucky. If you watched the WEC race at Sao Paulo on Sunday, you would've seen all drivers slow down instantly once they saw the Webber crash, long before the FCY and then the SC were deployed. So much more common sense in that series, all round.

Belly got me

You can either try and remove the swirls (difficult without a machine) or just hide them up (easy but obviously not long lasting). If you have a darker car then something like the Poorboys Black Hole Glaze will do the job nicely if you go for the latter. Bird waste stains will be very difficult to remove without a machine, so unless you're going to invest then I wouldn't even attempt to try.

Cheers all! Pizza Hut was amazing as ever. Popcorn shrimp, followed by a Cheesy Bites Supreme, then finished with an Ice Cream Factory!

Without a shadow of a doubt. If you were in a group of unmolested Mondeo diesel estates, probably not: In Zeds, for sure.

Yeah, I don't see there being even 20 races if I'm honest. Be nice, though!

Grundy should be more like Trigger's broom, with his car that's going to be the original one apart from that everything is different

I don't think chicken belongs on a pizza, personally. It should be red meats like beef or ham or pepperoni or anything else that comes from a cow or a pig.

Very true about the slidey toppings.

If they needed this, then what use is S59?

RONG 1. Pikey kebab takeaway kebab pizzas. Always trump all. 2. Pizza Hut. They do the best stuffed crusts. 3. Papa Johns. New for us too round here, very impressed so far. 4. Herbies. Had a couple now when visiting friends, tasty but a useless website. 5. Dominos. It's alright, but the crusts just aren't special enough to me.

Thanks folks! Nice quiet day for me at work today, then off to Pizza Hut for some noms tonight. I frickin' LOVE Pizza Hut!

Police won't care, it's a civil matter. Speak to Gas Safe in the first instance for the certs, and then it's up to you whether you want to challenge him through the courts. Personally I think it'll cost more than it's worth in both time and money, however I also know I'd be incredibly p*ssed off if I were in your boots.

It could, yes. Unlikely, but not impossible. It will also cause more understeer.

I'd just swap the tyres straight over, personally.

Steve, if you go through with this after all the negative press, you're crazy fella.

Which ones?

Driving lessons. As in, proper performance driving. You'll go much, much quicker with £5K tuition than with £10K of engine mods.
