In overall charge of the whole brouhaha is Bernie Ecclestone, who started out as a driver until someone pointed out he was crap. He then switched to being manager of the Brabham team, before gradually taking over the entire thing – and shortly the world, too. Despite the fact that he is rather small, a bit wrinkly, and has an unfeasibly bad haircut, he is married to an eastern European model called Slavica, which just goes to show that despite what women say about a sense of humour being the most important feature in a man, having a wallet the size of Peru doesn’t exactly hurt. His power and influence is such that the first thing any newcomer to the sport learns is “for ****’s sake, don’t piss off Bernie.”

And again :)


If you are wondering why people don’t seem to be overtaking each other much, it’s all to do with aerodynamics. You see, the car in front is moving through undisturbed air, so its wings are working more efficiently than the car following, which is having to deal with the turbulent air coming off the blah blah blah blah blah oh **** it. They’re not overtaking because they’re SHIT, okay? Happy now?

Raikkonen is quiet, unassuming, and about as much fun to interview as a small tin of pilchards.

Ah you're killing me here - this page is the best thing I've read in ages :)

Their second driver is Takuma Sato, a tiny wee Japanese guy who is arguably the highest-placed pay driver in F1 (a “pay driver” is one who pays to be in the team through sponsorship deals, as opposed to “good drivers” who receive a salary from the team).

Feck me, someone get that man a salary!

You want to read the rest of the site, it's just as funny, especially the calendars they do :D

OK ok, last one:


Sauber Petronas are often referred to as “Ferrari’s second team”, because they use Ferrari-manufactured engines and gearboxes, which doesn’t really explain why Ferraris are the fastest things out there and Saubers couldn’t pull the skin off a rice pudding.

thank you STIMPY :)

Thats the best thing to come out of F1 in years :thumbs:

This is brilliant stuff :nod:


Their second driver is David Coulthard, who has made a career of not being quite as good as whoever his team-mate happens to be, but is renowned for being a "team player", i.e. He will happily let another driver through, give up the spare car or donate some bone marrow if Big Ron asks him to. He is rumoured to be retiring at the end of the season, so everyone should start praying now that he doesn’t get a job as an ITV commentator, because that would mean he'd have to be not quite as good as James Allen – which is so frightening a concept that it makes me fart.
