FORMULA 1
Oops.. I did it again
From falling off his e-scooter to wetting himself in the cockpit, there’s always been a touch of Alan Partridge about Nico Rosberg.​
And the 2016 world champion was at it again during the Hungarian grand prix, squabbling with a child on live TV.​
During a segment with three junior go-karters, Nico confided in them that his nickname at Mercedes was Britney, due to his long hair. “It was not cool”, he recalled, still seething at the moniker.​
A few minutes later, the former Mercedes driver got up to leave, and one of the kids told him: “Good luck Britney, I hope you do well.”​
Rosberg stopped in his tracks, and hissed: “No Scarlett that was not cool. I share a secret there with you guys, that was not cool at all.”​
“Thank you Britney,” came Scarlett’s reply, leading Nico to death-stare her and growl, “please apologise”.​
Finally, Scarlett said a quiet "sorry”, and Rosberg flounced off.​

They met on the 4th of June 2004. Jean Todt proposed on the 26th of July about seven weeks later. It took them 19 years to walk down the aisle. Those crazy kids.

Loving GP giving Max back some sass today
Let’s see how well he would get on without Hannah and GP running his race for him

I think the bosses are being unrealistic with their expectations as they said Otmar and Alan weren’t on the same timeline as they wanted 100 races to be winning and management have said it shouldn’t take that long
Can see them pulling out and focussing on road cars if they don’t get quick enough progression
Clearly not a happy place to be

Someone at Renault is busy trying to get Andretti on the phone.

Renault have not really been committed to F1 properly the last like decade. Either go all in, or all out. At least McLaren are putting their money where their mouth is in trying to get back to the top.

Getting deja vu vibes watching rain in Belgium with a safety car dictating the sprint so far.

Went to see Gran turismo in the cinema and guess who plays the kids mum...... Mrs Geraldine Horner herself

My other half even said "I didn't recognise her because she's not wearing white"
