    One question from the start. "How are things for the midfield teams such as Lotus, Sauber and FI?". "Fine".

    Thanks
    DHC. Your links (especially the first) gave me a huge laugh.

    Let's hope the weekend continues in such a convivial manner!

    Hear, hear. From that conference you'd never imagine the pressure most of those drivers are under right now. It certainly eased some of the nerves I've been feeling all week about this final race.

    1.5s quicker than the next best..
    Biggest gap of the season... They've obviously been sand-bagging all year!

    Good news for Lewis then. He only needs top finish top two, just shadow Nico and that will get the job done. If they are under no pressure from the rest.

    Enjoyed Horner insulting everyones intelligence on the BBC <ok>

    Designing a whole new engine has cheaper development costs than keeping an already developed engine.....

    Oh dear, Grosjean to get 20 place grid penalty.

    http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/116875

    How are they going to do 20 places? Start from the back of a completely different grid at another circuit? Start from the back or the pit lane would suffice, no?

    Why stop at 20? Why not penalise him 30 or 40 grid places. How silly.

    At the start of the race Grosjean will start from the pit lane. He must hop to his car with his hand over one eye, and must then turn round three times to make himself dizzy before getting into the car and reversing the entire length of the pitlane, before executing a three point turn and being allowed to join the circuit. That'll learn him.

    <laugh> What shall we ask him then, any ideas?

    Why do you call yourself 'Crofty', like you're our mate or something?
    Where did you get the idea from that you are funny or even informed?
    Did you take elocution lessons from Smashey and Nicey?

    and thinking about it, what about Honda? "Hey Honda, nice new engine. To save money lets only use it for one year and then bin it and start over to save money!"

    I heard a rumour that 'Crofty' has got his own instalment of Bellends of Formula 1 in the pipeline. I think it's due for transmission straight after the Christian Horner Spiceworld Special episode.

    Even Ted Kravitz and Anthony Davidson sounded a little annoyed about Croft's joking about today. It's a championship deciding weekend and Croft is still making pathetic rubbish jokes.
