I know I would have spent the night in jail if those fools tried to take away my freedom of speech and expression! :yes:


Well the first marshalls helped me put it up!!
Then just before quali when the pitlane opened(I was opposite the mcLaren garage) and the toffs did the pit walk and tv cameras started rolling ,These heavy mobs with walkie talkies and dark glasses, very different to normal marshalls, came sweeping along checking everything and i was scared. I thought they might throw me out. They were looking at the banner. It was very big and draped over the front right near the track. When they came over i sort of slid down in my seat and pretended not to see them but they kept on and asked if it was our banner so I said no. And then it was ripped down, :(


So, you were a racechicken? :P:hehe:
And that scene starkly reminded me of your hero LH at the stewards' meetings :P:twisted::brolly:


Yeah I was a racechicken. :( Not bothered about standing up to them, you know me , I'll argue with the best of them! And if they'd looked theyd have seen Mosley all over my T-shirt. Didnt want to be thrown out though.

ps. Not quite like Lewis, no-one told me what to say, i decided all by myself :wink:

Great qualifying session. Congrats to Vettel and Webber..good drive from Buemi as well! Let see if the race is as exciting and if Lewis and Kimi can make something of their grid positions..Brawn is most likely carrying more fuel, this will be confirmed later; and where did Alonso come from (lol), we'll see if he can retain this position come the checkered flag.

Little dissapointed with Nico getting 7th but I think he's going for a long first stint on the hard tyres and probably so will be Trulli and the Brawns. Red Bull have done a great job, but they have always shone the best in qualifying (a Newey design trait).

Alonso will be the lightest of anybody. I reckon he's probably going to do something like a 5 lap glory stint and hope for the best. Impressive job by Buemi, but I'm still not convinced he was the best choice for Toro Rosso. I reckon if Bruno Senna was at the wheel he might have taken a shot at spoiling Vettel's party.

Nakajima and Bourdais though... what are they playing at??? And Glock too, I wonder if that penalty has somehow got to him and put him off his best? :confused:

I still reckon Button or Barrichello will win the race.
