Interesting to see what cars some F1 stars are currently driving (from this morning's Metro )
- Jenson Button drives a 3.2L V6 Honda NSX (developed by Ayrton Senna) with a 0-60 time of 5.5 secs
- Juan Pablo Montoya drives a CLS500 55 AMG, 0-60 = 5.9 secs, top speed = 155MPH
- David Coulthard drives a Smart Car Coupe, 0-60 = 11.9 secs, top speed = 94MPH
- Mark Webber drives a BMW M5, 0-60 = 4.5 secs, top speed = 155MPH

The article claimed that Schumacher drives a Ferrari 430, although I don't think the picture they had of him standing next to his car was actually of a 430....

It's also nice to see that they also make mistakes on the road....my favourite story is that Michael Schumacher hit the back of a lorry - he wasn't paying enough attention to the road because he was fiddling with his radio!

There's also the famous story of Senna who was caught speeding on a motorway in England. the copper who pulled him over asked him if he thought he was Nigel Mansell and he got to reply "No, I'm Senna..."

Ralf Schumacher also dented his BMW during a parking maneuver IIRC when he was driving for Williams. One of the headlines was his wife saying that he 'drives like a woman' or something like that
