*ahem* And for the spectators view which I posted here, watch this.

Did not see this result happening but I can't help but feel sorry for Ricciardo. He's got to be the happiest, nicest guy in F1 right now and he keeps getting let down by RB. But what a great race from start (after the safety car that is) to finish. How some of the drivers made the ultra soft tyres last 50 laps I do not know.

I'll be watching it but do have low expectations. Would be nice if we're all pleasantly surprised though. I know what the challenge is this week and I think it would have been good in the old TG but let's see. :)

Ouch. :( Is it "just" the front bumper? Hard to tell with the silly Instagram style filter. :p Hope it's not gonna be too hard for you to sort out.

Another spectacular crash brought to us by Formula 3. This time it was Oulton Park. Amazing that he walked away from it without serious injury considering the car broke into 2 pieces.

2:28.333 in the Maserati. Still more time in it if I need it. Was a bit of a messy lap hitting puddles I didn't need to and running a tad wide a few times

It turns out I can guess at the future! Well done to Ricciardo, he's the 2nd person on my list of drivers I want to win/get pole. Mercedes at it again breaking the cars with Hamiltons being the more broken as is the norm so far this season. Doh. With a chance of rain, what does the race have in store for us?

:eek: Congrats on the new car, it looks amazing and really well kitted out. I dare say you'll get some looks from the ladies in it. And probably looks of jealousy from most other people too. Just keep away from car parks! Looks humongous.

:birthday: Happy birthday Baldy, 26 years of age, wow, you're actually old now. Like properly old. Have an inflatable zimmer frame on us for when your legs let you down!

Tick tock, tick tock. Only 13 or so hours left to get your times in. But rest assured, I am still to set a proper time!

Rosberg talking to Ferrari and Mercedes only offering him a 1 year contract. Interesting. :hmmm: Where would Kimi go?

It's almost time for race number 6 of the season in Monaco, home of the galmourous, Myk, obscenely and somewhat illegitimately rich. Will it be back to business as usual with Mercedes(Rosberg) winning the race from the front as Hamilton faulters. Or will Hamilton pull it out of the bag and win his first race of the season as he was mighty on FP1 getting up to speed much quicker than anyone else. Or will Red Bull be able to take on Mercedes in a battle for first in Quali or the race? One thing is for sure, it's either going to be an incredibly dull race or an action packed race full of incidents and possibly some big shocks.

So you have a large shiny moustache? Interesting. :hmmm:

Interesting that you were thinking of physical stability. I think we(right, guys?) were thinking more mental stability. :cheeky:

From my limited memory I think I take an early apex so I've done most of the turning before the puddle. And don't go full power and don't coast so about 50% thottle and you shouldn't lose control or run understeer off.

I don't think I could agree more! :cheeky: Apart from you need something less manly. :leaves:

Well, I'd like to say congratulations to Soundwave for winning this weeks contest. Just thought I'd get that out there so I don't forget. I will have to have a ponder to see what I can do for this weeks theme. :hmmm:

Has everyone given up with this now? :(

If you were a car, what car would you be? Any car, past or present but please say why you think you would be said car Will you choose a car that looks a bit like you. For example, are you a Peugeot? Or are you a moody temperamental wo...Alfo Romeo that simply refuses to do anything when it's in a bad mood because they forgot to take their lunch to work?

The sounds are a bit better but I can't help but think they've only increased the bass. Which is a good start but they still have a loooong way to go imo. And enough with the overly excessively annoyingly stupid tyre squeal whenever you brake slightly or turn slightly. Why are they still doing it!?

2:32.248 in a the Jag with a 10 second tune in 4 laps. Sebring is definitely fun in the wet. :)
