Have you driven around the Peripherique in Paris? Seems like Grosjean's driving is 'normal' if what I've seen is anything to go by! :D

But seriously, the guy is having just too many incidents. Ban for the rest of the season? I think that might give him time to think things over.

Didn't Nigel M win his Championship with a Renault engine? When did Cosworth engines last win a GP? Ferrari engines don't seem to work for Torro Rosso do they. Mercedes (allegedly) design and build their F1 engines in the UK.
Nah, let's just ban the French from everything. BY.

I still want a Tee shirt that says:-
" I survived the Peripherique and the M25"

I still find F1 boring.   We had the Mt. Panorama V8 race this weekend. OK so there were several times the Safety car came out but the lead changed 8-9 times and the final 10 laps (out of 161) were 'edge of the seat' with Craig Lownes going from 6th. to 3rd. with some magnificent overtaking.   0.3 sec. between 1st. and 2nd and first 6 within a few seconds of each other.   Non of your 'Pole position' wins here.   Racing all the way.

same winners every week though. bit like f1 at the moment. i thought the f1 season was going to be better this year the way it started but seems to be back to the usual winners again. i  have never been a  schumacher fan but i actually hoped be may have thrown up a few results this year but he was bit of an 'also ran' as well.
