    My initial thought was that he was a spoilt brat and would embarrass his family, but appears the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

    I'd want to see footage of the original incident that caused it all to happen?

    Apparently there wasn’t any as the cameras were focusing on the race at the front and not way back in the field. But if he (and his dad) can’t contain himself, the sport is better off without him.
    We used to race Rotax at Blackbushe and Forest Edge down near Bournemouth and I thought the cadets (youngsters) were bad, but they were positively angelic compared to this idiot

    Was it Piquet or Prost who did that in the 80s?

    Didn’t Senna take a swing at Eddie Irvine after one race?

    Whisper it quietly, and Tsitpisas could be the guy to topple Nadal on Sunday. If both make it. So while Nadal has the guile, the young Greek has youth, strength, and power to do it. And with the courts favouring perhaps flatter ground shots, I feel he will do it.

    Piquet and Elizio Salazar. The most amazingly bad straight-legged kick attempt too.

    Yup. I mean, fair enough really. Irvine was a bit of a prick.

    Oh yes - Germany if I remember. Salazar took him right off and realised he was wrong, so didn’t even try to fight back ....

    Wasn’t Salazar a Bond villain?

    Don’t know if this has been mentioned.
    Geraint Thomas crashed his bike, in the neutral zone, before participating in a 150 kilometre stage of the Giro D’Italia, that ended with a 2 mile ascent up the side the volcano, Mount Etna.
    All this with a fractured pelvis, apparently. :emoticon-0104-surpr
    Meanwhile, Eric Lamela needed to lay down on the pitch after his face was lightly touched by Martial, at the weekend.

    Footage of Thomas hitting a bottle that had been discarded in the road.

    The irony is that Ineos kept Thomas out of the Tour de France because they wanted him to add the Giro to his palmarès. Now he’s not only out of the Giro, but he’ll miss the Vuelta as well.

    Rob Burrows - Rugby League Legend.

    anyone seen the BBC documentary about Rob and his battle with Motor Neuron Disease? Heart-breaking stuff, it really is.

    Stay strong Rob!

    Is Hamilton playing mind games?
    Says his front left doesn’t feel great, then sets the fastest lap.

    Big congrats to Lewis. I've just seen a stat that says he's won 35.9% of the races he's driven in. That's astonishing.
