    Kobayashi often hits people, its just he normally judges it to mm's so when he taps someone its with such little force I doubt they even notice <laugh>

    The Japanese are a very polite race - unless shouting Tora Tora Tora - and dive bombing with a Zero fighter. <laugh>

    Nitpick: The Zero wasn't a dive bomber.

    Is there any other kind?

    And Manny, Blind loyalty is one of the most foolish human traits there is, you should look into world history 1938 -1945 to see where it leads.

    I was using a well known example of blind loyalty in the hope you had the sense to see it, alas I think you need a few years of life experience, I just hope you don't get on the wrong side of someone elses blind stupidity before you learn it.

    Mods please can we have a clean up on isle "this thread", I don't see how the war has got to with F1 specifically with a thread about Villeneuve.

    I would appreciate it if the thread was kept open and the off topic posts were to be deleted including mine, I did bring the news to the users attention, I think others would be happy for it to stay to allow some more debate.
    Rather than swaying off the track because of one person.

    One day there will be a thread without all the usual cliques. It's got to the stage where I can pretty much guess how its going to go and who's going to say what. Sadly the number of innocent parties seems to be decreasing.

    This is actually a genuine case of Godwin's Law.

    really? I don't see where I've called anyone a Nazi or Hitler, in fact I've tried my hardest not to follow the recent examples of personal insults and said I hope he never becomes a victim of someone elses blind loyalty, which is totally different from accusing him of being a Nazi.
    I havn't even invoked Westy's law

    I feel you have misunderstood me Miggins. Godwin's Law is simply about how the longer an online debate goes on, the more likely it is that someone will make a comparison with Hitler/Nazis/WW2 etc. I'm not accusing you of calling anybody anything, it was simply a light hearted comment of surprise which was intended to be taken in the context of the amount of times we quote 'Westy's Law'.

    Oh, no offence was taken WCB, it's why I mentioned Westy's after.

    Is it just me, or was that just more bollocks from a mediocre driver who had more than his fair share of knob head moments? :p

    Does Westy's Law also apply to Schumacher?

    I didn't say it was a bomber- it was indeed a very light efficient fighter. My point was that some pilots apparently dived their aircraft into American ships in a suicide mission. Romanticised by the film 'Tora Tora Tora.'

    from past experience I don't think any laws apply to Schumacher :1980_boogie_down:


    lol, my turn, Tora Tora Tora is about the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbour Dec 41, they didn't start using KamiKaze until October 44.
