Now I remember: they're from Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.

How did we get here?

Infinite Improbabilty Drive, naturally.
I coined the term "Lewisteria". The irony is that I actually quite like Lewis Hamilton.

Could be. Whatever the reason and means, it's much more interesting than the FIA/FOTA gate thingy.
Stay home, Colin Kolles!

I think we've just run out of things to say about FIA/FOTA, so we may as well ramble on about anything that comes into our heads.

However, if the FIA allowed the small teams to run the infinite improbability drive it would spice things up a bit.

Just imagine the excuses when the car would end up somewhere in Andromeda. Much better than "a misfire".

Never mind Andromeda, something even less likely might happen, like McLaren getting their aero package sorted ;)

I'm told that the infinite improbability drive was fitted to Piquets car in Turkey. Which explains the move on Hamilton :lol:

He also had it in China, he was all over the place all the time. Sometimes, he was even on the track...

If I remember correctly the Billion year bunker was destroyed by a complete and utter existancial failure...
Just like FIA is leading onto.
Maybe F1's success has been running on an IID?
I got Pointed Opinions and I ain't afraid to use em!
F1rejects no.1Räikkönen and Vettel fan.
BTW, thats Räikkönen with two K's and two N's. Not Raikonnen (Raikkonen is fine if you have no umlauts though)
