    As always, Silver, thanks for all the little things you continually share to keep people up to date <ok>. Having not been on here all that much recently, its nice to come here and get a lot of cool tidbits I don't get from the sites I frequent. Partly because I'm either to busy/lazy to look anything else up myself! <laugh>

    He's got the whole world in his hands, he's got the whole world in his hands,
    He's got the whole wide world in his hands.
    He's got the whole team in his hands, and if he doesn't win a race, i'll be surprised,
    Cos he will dominate Nico, I am sure, and if he doesn't I will eat my own hair.

    If it's true. Mclaren would be in deep trouble though.

    I heard McLaren were heavily investing into a Red Bull technology kind of factory, so maybe in the short term, but long term very unlikely.

    Oh well that's McLaren's problem now <laugh>

    Most common sentences I've read in the last 2 days:

    Too many cooks.
    Mercedes are becoming like the football version of Man City. (Sorry Cosicave)
    Mercedes becoming the next Jaguar.

    Although I do not keep up with football, I have a friend who is a senior referee. From what little I've gleaned from his (to me rather boring) conversations with others, your analogy seems quite reasonable!


    But I do not share your opinion of Mercedes becoming the next Jaguar. For a start, Jaguar were under-funded and weak in their structure &#8211; which is exactly what Mercedes are trying to avoid. And 'too many cooks' is roughly the same as saying the kitchen is too small (perhaps Jaguar sized?)&#8230;

    :)

    Jaguar were a team that started out as a manufacturer (Ford/Honda), became a privateer team (Stewart/Brawn), and were bought out by a company who sought ex-F1 stars to help out where they had no real clue (Lauda/take your pic)...

    So the comparison is not entirely unfounded, though I must say I agree with cosi's point that the problem will not be lack of funding/structure and I may be looking for correlation rather than causation here ;)

    I've just seen the most stupidest poll of all time by Sky:

    What nickname will you give Mercedes?

    Merc
    Mercs
    Silverarrows
    I don't have one...

    Who the hell calls a team that is one of the most historic of all time: (Merc, Mercs)? Seriously have I walked into that dump Croydon? Don't like me slagging off Croydon? Tough luck! I was born in that dump <laugh>

    What will they call the Ferrari's?
    Team Pavarotti
    The red guys
    Scuderia
    The car I can never afford...


    Seriously have some class f1 fans, ok I have tons to spare etc, but I can't give it all over the earth <laugh>
