Have the coverage on in the background, and almost lapsed into a coma during a ten-second comment from Nigel Mansell.
Sign this man for A Book At Bedtime. They'd only need one book ever.

There were problems before that, and worse problems after. The fuel pipe business was the first mistake Hamilton has made as a driver. Driving an F1 car must be difficult enough at the best of times---but with the weight of expectation bearing down on the vehicle.
Yeah, hope the final is a good one. It's nice to have a sport where you can just watch and enjoy without having to choose favourites.

Fingers crossed.
Each little success does more to boost the sport, and encourage more kids to get involved.
I know there are a lot of sports fans who feel tennis players are overpaid prima donnas. For me, the combination of strength, stamina, speed, intelligence, concentration, patience and sheer guts needed to succeed at the top of the sport makes them worth every penny.

F1 these days is bollocks, I miss Murray Walker getting over excited and getting it all wrong. Since Schumacher came to the fore and wanky safety restrictions made it very boring.
They'll never be another era of Prost/Mansell/Senna

hang on Wazza, Senna and Prost were both masters that fought each other even on the same team. Mansell, whilst a boring cunt was a decent driver and a risk taker which made his tussles with Prost and Senna more exciting to watch.
