    I think it would be better to have a sub-forum for off topic threads rather than just one thread which could get confusing.

    If you could be driven round a circuit by a current GP driver - who would you choose and which track?

    Just wanted to shared this comment somebody posted on a Joe Saward's blog on Turkey's main outcome being Vettel's dominance. It made me laugh this morning. Hope you like it

    The racing is great, but the RBR dominance is starting to become ever-so-slightly dull.

    They&#8217;ll need to introduce a rule for car development in 2012 based on the NBH &#8212; &#8220;Newey Brain Hour&#8221; &#8212; with restrictions to 72 NBH per season per team. The value of one NBH will vary from team to team: 1 NBH = about 15 Aldo Costa brain hours, for example, or the whole Williams design group working flat out for six days. Of course, as the name implies, 1 NBH = Adrian Newey thinking for an hour. So RBR will get to use Newey for about two weeks per season &#8212; two and a half if he takes long tea breaks. That should restore a bit of parity&#8230;

    What I don&#8217;t understand, though, is how the 2007 and 2008 Red Bulls were so ordinary. Did Adrian suddenly start eating more fish at the beginning of 2009, or something?
