    I love that photo, not only for Checo and Pastor's top nasty looks, but Kvyat and Massa look like they're thinking, 'Am I in a parallel universe here? WTF is he on about?' Lewis just looks confused.

    But yeah, Max... It seems all the hype has gone to his head; unsurprising, I suppose. It's funny because before the Monaco GP he did an interview, walking along the waterfront with Lee McKenzie, I think it was. It was hard to imagine him as this arrogant demon driver, he looked like a typical awkward teenaged boy: bashful and head slightly bowed like he seemed uncomfortable around a woman; a bit lost for words. I don't know, people certainly change when they get behind the wheel of a car... :)

    I prefer him to be like that. Being a nice guy gets you nowhere in F1. No point trying to please the masses.

    Lewis is just worried about the Monaco topic, a certain somebody he punted off a few years ago is sat right behind him <whistle>

    As for Max, well everyone messes up at some point, as long as it's fairly rare then it's just racing. Of course people like Massa are going to kick up a fuss about the 'youth' not being ready, he's the sort of age where the youth is threatening to steal his seat. Someone called Alex is already at Williams trying just that.

    FP1 might be a tad boring. It's just started raining and as we all know F1 doesn't currently have the capability to go out in the wet.

    Do hope Ferrari were sandbagging... if not, they'll have a load of Merc powered cars to overtake!!

    Just been watching the 2007 highlights on the BBC, about 4 million safety cars, Kubica's huge shunt, Alonso unable to make turn 1, those weird safety car rules, Sato on a charge in the Super Aguri.

    Had it all <ok>
