FIA confirms Bianchi was unconscious when taken to hospital.

 

I've just watched Sky reporters interviewing drivers about the race and thinking "just leave it," and then they asked Jenson Button about his race and he said that it didn't matter and he doesn't want to talk about it as its irrelevant. Good in you Jenson. Sky need to forget filling coverage and time when a situation like this happens. Someone's life is in danger and so everything else becomes irrelevant.

 

NRL final currently on here. Cant even really call it a game just groups of men taking turns to beat each other up. At least 4 guys still on the field have had to get their head bandaged...some guy is bleeding from the mouth constantly...2 guys stretchered off in the last 5 minutes..some guy playing with a broken cheek bone...3 group fights in the last 10 minutes.

 

Bianchi has been operated on and is in critical condition after suffering head trauma. Horrid stuff.

 

FIA have just confirmed a "serious head injury".

 

Oh ****. Really hope he pulls through. "Severe head injury and in critical condition"

 

Fingers crossed for you Bianchi....

 

Surgery completed on Bianchi and he's been moved to ICU. Apparently *not* on life support, which is a good sign. Next 24 hours are crucial.

 

Yep .

Looking far more positive than it was a few hours ago

 

neighbours garage door was tampered with... hope they don't return tonight (the intruders)

 

Where do you live. I'll come round with my chainsaws.

 

Felt I could have done with them last night... I bravely went with flight rather than fight

Scary **** if ISIS do this.

 

I'd say so, not good reading is it.

 

Don't fancy their chances against Iran! Rule 1 of bullying other countries - never bully one with nuclear weapons

 

Former F1 driver, Andrea Di Cesaris has died in a motorbike crash.

What a ****ing **** day for Motorsport.

 

Watchers of travel, culture and/or history programmes may be familiar with Simon Reeve. He did such series as Equator, Tropic of.., Indian Ocean, etc... Now he's come up with another series. Sacred Rivers is another one of those themes where Simon finds key points and hidden points of real interest in a subject and draws them together along a journey in an hour of wonderful camerawork and presentation. This week he presented the Blue Nile and where it flows, and how it affects the country, until it converges with it's sibling White Nile, into the great Nile river. Next week it'll be the Ganges, and I can't wait. I'm sure it'll be superb. He's just got this wonderful knack of doing this. I don't feel I come away from watching one of his programmes vastly more informed, but I do feel that I've tapped into the feel of the subject. He's certainly no dry informer. He gives you real moments of understanding. Highly recommended.

 

There's some real scum around. Got back from a night out this morning, like 5:30/6ish. My housemate came back 20 mins earlier with a guy. I got back, she rang me crying upstairs. I go up to find her in a towel, cut nose and blood all over her face. The scumbag hit her. So angry. I went searching the house, but he must have left when I went up to find her because I never saw or heard him leave. I'm as far away from an angry, impulsive or violent person as you can get, but if I'd have found him I think that would have changed. Still angry now.

 

Hideous. I must say that would send me crazy too.
