    He just blew away all the cars in front of him. Quite spectacular racing from him. Only took him 6 or 7 laps to get up to 7th or 8th.

    I love awkward Putin moments. Did Lewis just say “Danke shoen” to him!?

    Sorry Tom you called this wrong thankfully. Sergio the leading points scorer in the Ryder cup to boot!

    I am happy to admit it! Although Molinari was the best player of the weekend. He was superb.

    4/5 for the rookie Fleetwood was pretty good too, although I’m sure he’d be the first to say that Molinari was a big factor in that!

    Yet another cock up by Ferrari meaning Vettel qualifies 9th for the race tomorrow.

    Quite amusing Charles getting frustrated with the Sauber strategy in Q2. I just sat there thinking “get used to it for next year mate”.

    What is astonishing this year, has been the performance of South Africa in their matches against NZ. If they really have closed the gap this much, this is excellent news for the rugby watching fraternity. I believe these two teams are the best in the world at the moment.

    I really must find a bar on 11 November that is going to screen England v NZ. It will be a tight match, but I hope England will also come out running with the ball, getting it out wide rather than resort to a kicking game. The worst feature is the box kick, and booting for territory.

    Britain’s Tai Woffinden clinches his third World Speedway Championship this evening at the Polish Grand Prix. He becomes the first British rider to win 3 world titles, an incredible achievement.

    UFC is not a sport - it's just violence, pure and simple. Two thugs battering the **** out of each other by any means necessary.

    I rescued a mouse from my cat at 5.30am, so stayed up to watch Lewis win.
    Bit tired now.
