As mentioned on the podcast - just wow.

Well - it's Formula Lista BMW, so let's not get ahead of ourselves. But he actually seems to be a somewhat capable driver - can't wait so see how he turns out!

With that list of sponsors, I'm sure he has a future in F1 indeed...

I've got Nissanymania! Looks as if he's wearing a helmet inspired by Chanock's. At least the cars have been a good barometer of talent, if not the series.

Montoya - Team Radio what else do I need to say? Well, that it's not the Bathplugging Räikkönen video, yet still remains NSF children's ears

Its not Youtube, but its the animation legacy invented by Declan Brennan and ex F1 Digital+ Pit reporter Nick Daman

Wow, that's what I call an idiot...I hope he got sanctioned for that, it was really dangerous.

God, that was stupid and unnecessary.

Dreadful. Speaking of which I saw a 'Beretta' flash across the top - one of our fave rejects by any chance?

Yes, he raced the other Chevy Corvette alongside Oliver Gavin.

The dirty side of Schumacher striking again...

I need to find out that Japanese commentators name!

That guy's a legend. Him and Murray Walker commentating would be priceless. They'd find ways to understand each other.

"OHHH MY GOODNESS!!!"
"AH - CRASHUUUU!!! CRASHUUUU!!!"
"Indeed!!"

I've established that Fuji TV have had Japanese rights since '87, their current commentary team is, according to wiki:

Daiki Tanaka, Yutaka Hasegawa, Koji Oana, Tsuneyuki Shimoda, Kazuhito Kawai, Motoyasu Moriwaki, Jun Imamiya, Shigenori Ogura, and Tetsuo Tsugawa. I presume they rotate a lot. He might be one of those, if he's still with the station.

If only Shinji Nakano had finished one place ahead, it'd have been an absolute mayhem.

Several Worlds Colliding:

The British Touring Cars in a spate of Le Mans fever.
A driver who's fate at the time lay outside of F1 Rejectdom, however the fates would have their way.
A Lucky Bastard who earlier that year actually won Le Mans.
An Australian Touring Car legend.

and most importantly of all...

Des Lynham making the intro.

Even more importantly, a legendary commentator: "The pace car's the one with lights on it!"
And some nice driving from the Austrian F3 driver in the race.

lol at the yellow escort arriving on 2 wheels....

I'd seen that somewhere but lost track of it, great find! My favourite is the Startlet after the 2-wheeled Escort, that manages to bounce between the trees.

I personally love the guy that shouts "Aiy Aiy Aiy!" after the crashes.

Understatement can be fun occasionally.

Quite Possibly, the greatest documentary about the day-to-day running of an F1 team, in 1993, and its Aryton Senna, Yes, no rejects here, maybe some reject actions involving Martin Brundle, but this is WORTH putting in here due to its "Never to be equalled" value.

Its at Monza, therefore it's potential Reject who Lucky Bastardized himself Michael Andretti aswell, but he had his own Andretti-heavy episode, in Canada.

That was really good.

Edited excellently by... Dick Pull.

One might argue this is amongst THE rarest footages in Formula one history:
Mastercard Lola not only moving, BUT SPINNING!

Oh dear God.

That video is a portal to hours of rejectful delights...Dammit, I've not got time for this!

This one, for example, looks very good (and rare!), too: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MbDdTjW8ZSI

Not F1 I know, but I was at Brands Hatch yesterday in the Paddock Hill grandstand and saw the following crash on the big screen, happening on the GP loop - nobody got hurt, miraculously...

Wow. And this a year after Surtees at Brands.

It nearly hit one of the marshalls.
