Just to ask, could somebody explain when and where this photo was taken?

When - after the race, hopefully... :?

Wrong. It was taken at the side of the road, not on top of the car, Carlos.

Whilst Prost and Senna struggle with the fundamentals of stubborn champagne corks, Nannini's main concern is that it is not the correct vintage.

Karun Chandhok demonstrates the correct way to drive an Hispania F110: hang on for dear life and hope someone gets there soon.

Image

Lewis Hamilton: "'Radio button, brake balance button, drink button ... you know, I think this one might be yours."

Owing to a tight budget, Hispania were unable to get fire coverage included in their insurance, forcing the team to undergo a crash course in putting out their own fires.

While teams like McLaren and Ferrari visit Rosie's bar, the only bar Hispania were able to visit was the Indian Firefighters' Strip Club
