LH got his license suspended for a month for speeding in France.

Hm, I wonder how that works? Is he still allowed to drive in other countries? What license would he use in other countries? (since his is suspended).
And would a super license supersede a national license?

Super Licence wont be affected

[darwin dali]

I know, that's why I didn't ask the question you answered. I asked (with a wink) whether a super license would supersede a national driver's license, so he could drive with a super license in France.

Loads ot them have been caught and no problem with racing licence.

super licence would only be recoginsed by the racing body the FIA and not the government.

It would be like trying to drive with a Sprint Kart licence on the road hehe

[darwin dali]

Yes I know

It really doesn't make any difference. I lost my license many times and drove for years without one.

Well, vegas, remember Paris Hilton's problems because of driving w/o a license? You're bound to end up as somebody's prison bitch

[vegas]

No way, there is a big difference between guys like me and Hamilton and Paris. We wont make the same mistakes again. I know where all the police like to hide now.

I think half these drivers do it to plug themselves and the cars they are driving.

Will see you on COPS one day Vegas

ohhhh so that's what this is. i was in central london a few days ago and went past this newspaper vendor, and one of the articles stuck to his cart was 'LEWIS HAMILTON LOSES LICENSE.' i assumed it meant super license so when i read it i was terrified, looked all over for a story in the haven of information, the LondonLite. couldn't find it anywhere so i was obviously a bit confused. good to hear it was just his normal license though hehe. weird to think of F1 drivers getting their licenses banned just like normal people

A bit silly for Hamilton to go and get caught speeding, but of course this isn't un-common with F1 drivers.

Yes, just ask Nelson Piquet Snr. (And we all know of Schumacher's recent news story)

I believe if you have a racing license you should be allowed to drive twice the speed limit.
