Eddie Irvine, Alain Prost, Niki Lauda, they all agree this kindergarden style of F1 may make those with spreadsheets happy, but it is not F1. Shame, but who cares anymore...Bernie is off, the FIA, worried about accidents involving youngsters have overdone it with the rules, and now the proposed budget cap will likely to be mis-managed like their 12th team initiative. With all due respect, Hamilton is boring with an ingratiating personality that would certainly have earned him a punch-up or two had he never met Ron Dennis and fell away form his true calling as a taxicab operator. ;-) Now rather than drive the pussycat dolls from the chi-chi London clubs they now ride with him. Hey, even most of the team engineers are about 14years old. What gives, this is some kind of Romper Room with a bunch of ambassadors roaming the world spreading the message that F1 is shallow, vain and for spoilt brats.

Speaking of, that new Force India, for a guy that comes from a country where the cow is sacred, he sure looks like he puts away alot of cow. For breakfast, lunch and dinner. Pizza fan Fisichella and his 12th kick at the can put the car in the top 20 and the BBQ's were fired up and the lager flowed like curry. The aroma in the paddock, along with the sweaty visitors from Delhi was shall we say, not like another shrimp on the barbie.

Mark Webber overheats his brakes and crashes out, ending up where he belongs, not in the top 10. Whatever magic he weaves over the team bosses that sign him up thinking he is the next oz hope, he might want to think about bottling and turn his attention to driver management. Not that the Herr Dr. was some great mult-championship winning superstar, though time is time.

That new BMW certainly takes us back, very reminiscient of their 70' and 80' F3 and F2 efforts, if anyone in F1 is still old enough to remember racing for the last half of the last century. Good on them and Kubica too, who will be IMHO the real man driver of drivers this year. And Seb Vettel too, he really rocks it....

All else made me mute my Tv and want to play my Nintendo instead. It seems those that grew up playing with rocks have missed the reality of our society and its interests.

Shine on you crazy diamonds, shine on!
