Last season I tried to convince myself Hamilton was the best driver on the circuit despite the bad luck and the FIA's grudge against Mclaren.

This season (with more of an open mind) from the evidence so far I can't see anyone getting near Vettel as long as his car remains competitive.

Despite never having an interest in bikes I find Moto GP far more entertaining.

With the new tyres and strategy I've found this season far more interesting.

Well done to Doodab for bravely sticking around and collecting the money.

My weekend is F1, burning meat on the BBQ and generally chilling.

Ding dong.

Bing! Bong!

Pilots dread Lanzarote, as it has one of the most dangerous airports in the World. Not a lot of people know that. Landing and take off are like having a crack at the Mohne Damn in a Lancaster "Mind that Mountain! Pull up!! Pull up!! ..."

Also, every day of the year, there's a howling Atlantic wind which blows dust off the volcano into your eyes and everywhere.

And it helps if all you usually eat is fish and chips with gravy sauce, with Newcastle Brown Ale to wash it down, because apparently that's all most of the restaurants do.

But enjoy your weekend ..

apparently they choose the place for training because its infested with RoachusRoachusNibblus (lt), some species of voracious and dangerous cockroach. Apparently they crawl up your leg, whilst asleep, looking for a warm and moist place to burrow into.
If one gets into your ear, they can nest and forage off the fat in your earlobe, and you would never know.
It's worse if they get into your bum. but I dont want to talk about that
