Dallas was a much better track than Phoenix. The race sure as hell was better at Dallas!

What about Detroit? That tight hairpin it had in its 1982 configuration was killer.

At this very moment, Vettel is probably thinking about the possibility that Luscious Liz might be just another two-dollar hooker...

The fact we managed to discuss Hammo's swerving in Malaysia without bringing each other's mums into the fray has made me positively elated - not for the first time.

He was taking after his parents and partying like it was 1984.

The reference was far dirtier before I decided to stay family-friendly. It's all your and Wizzie's faults.

It certainly could do with the entertainment value & the closer racing. Maybe the people charged with amending the rules so badly every year should take a look at Indy once in a while.

Sir Stirling has a point.

Besides, I only have avatars with Portuguese drivers - and, as per the 2.0 podcast, Catalonia has been taken over by the Portuguese unbeknown to anyone. :D

1st-Catalonia is allegedly not Spain, but it isn't Portuguese either.
2nd-That's Buemi. The Alguersaurus Rex has a yellow helmet.

I personally rate nationalism slightly above the black plague (and slightly below Hello Kitty) in the ranking of "things which have the potential to ruin it for everyone", but I was delighted to hear in the podcast 2.0 that Alguersuari is now Portuguese... ;)

I hope this doesn't take the edge off him, the way it did with Wurz in Monaco 12 years ago.

Kovalainen outbraking Massa into Anthony Noghès: laugh-out-loud moment of the year. I bet every Englishman in the pitlane cheered, and some Italians may have raised a smile as well.

Buemi doesn't deserve to last the whole season. Won't be surprised if Toro Rosso dump him in favor of Brandon Hartley or Daniel Ricciardo.
