@grippgoat I think it refers to the case Van der Garde, when Sauber had 3 drivers signed for 2 raceseats. So a “Sauber table tennis doubles team” consists of 3 players instead of 2.

“As exciting as a Grand Prix, but more beautiful to listen to. The queen Elisabeth contest for cello, semi finals from 15th to 20th of May on Klara and Canvas” (=a radio station and a tv channel of the Dutch speaking Belgian public broadcasting)

I also like Thierry Boutsen’s and David Coulthard’s helmet designs.

In 2014, Mercedes tried a trumpet to improve the exhaust note of the hybrid engines. This ad for the Queen Elisabeth Competition for Cello in Belgium shows a different approach to improving the sound of a Grand Prix:

Seriously? Sure you didn’t miss his 9 podiums with Williams? It’s not as if Rosberg has been replaced with someone like Palmer or Ericsson. And has it ever been any different in F1 that having a competitive car […]

Always glad when someone mentions the Benneton B191, it’s the car I associate the most with the first F1 races I watched as an 11 year old.

You could also call her Simona 2.0, but that wouldn’t do justice to de Silvestro’s talents. Hope she does well in Australian Supercars this season.

I don’t think he considers himself as greater than F1, but his fathership as greater than F1. I have a 1year old son, and I can imagine doing exactly the same thing if I were in his (financial) position. I can […]
