Any F1 fans

Tom Cruise could do it, but only if he was inverted at the time.

He was too busy racing Porsches with DC and Webber

In other news I booked Woodlands for 14 people next year last night in the pre-sale

He was, and very enjoyable it was too with the many Top Gun references.
My post in response to giving Hamilton "the bird" was another witty Top Gun reference, but I wondered if anybody would get it without me having to explain.

And still it rages on with Red Bull not willing to let this drop.
They have officially challenged the penalty given to Hamilton and a conference has been scheduled for Thursday at 3pm between the stewards, Red Bull and Mercedes. It has been said that Red Bull must present a "significant and relevant new element" for the stewards to consider reopening the case.
I have been watching Formula 1 for decades and I cannot remember anything like this happening for what was basically a racing incident.
I have been noticing a shift in opinion towards Red Bull, where the consensus seems to be that they should drop this and move on.
I really don't think Red Bull are doing themselves any favours here.

I an sure they will bring up the other 2 incidents involving HAM and ALB where exactly the same thing happened, they must have something to add to keep persuing it

Who knows what they will say...but I would imagine the stewards will only be interested in this incident only.
Red Bull are taking this too far now IMO, and if it was reversed I would feel the same about Mercedes.
People are getting tired of hearing it now...

According to the sporting code they have 14 days to appeal. Who knows, hope they both get point deductions and NOR wins

 

[Ron240]

Seeing as you mentioned Norris I have just read this quote from him...
“I was a McLaren fan as a child and could choose: Hamilton or his teammate Fernando Alonso. But then Hamilton was my compatriot, so that choice was easy. I was just nine when Lewis took his first world title. He is fifteen years older and I always looked up to him"
Must admit I do like Lando.

 

[Paul Garrett]

Lewis Hamilton has signed a 2 year contract extension that will keep him with Mercedes until the end of 2023 season.

Of course he will sign up for another 2 years.....he has to keep topping up his pension plan eh? Ha!

 

[Paul Garrett]

And of course he not wanting to apply for pension credit???

 

[Ron240]

Having more money than he will realistically ever be able to spend, I don't think he needs to worry about a traditional pension like we do.

Oh and do not forget when he is older he can still get his heating allowance from the Government whilst living in Monaco!! Ooohhh such a hard life eh?

I don't think Price Albert provides a heating allowance.
It sounds like you may be just a tiny bit jealous here.
