If you got paid several millions of pounds per year, would you complain if your super licence charge was increased? It is amazing the sort of comparisons are being made, for example you don’t have to have a licence to play football. The point that everyone seems to be missing is that the revenue from the Super Licence is spent on safety improvements, and I am sure that if footballers could have paid for better protection from Roy Keane, they would have. That being said the increase is 580%, which is a rather high uplift. However if you were to apply this to an annual salary of £20k, you would be paying £2400. However we must not forget that this will be able to be off-set against tax (if you don’t live in Switzerland!)
Qualifying
Qualify, and it’s a Ferrari lock-out, Ferrari’s 200th pole, and with Cuckoo Boy back in 13th after his lights blindness in Canada it could be a cake walk. After a few promising races, Honda drop into the last 5, looks like another season as also, also rans, only Force India is slower.
The Race
The Swiss boy is again showing how ragged he is when he has to fight his way through the field. The greats, Prost, Schumi, Senna would cut through the field like a knife through butter, intimidating the car in front. Where as The Cuckoo Boy, looks more like ‘White Van Man’ on the M25 on a Friday evening. A drive though penalty is just reward.
‘Can you hear the Drums’ pitted very early, showing his qualifying speed was weight related.
And it finishes with another Ferrari 1-2, all be it reversed from the grid, so Massa tops the championship table, and Swiss boy finishes 10th! And guess what he whinges in his interview!
Moment from the podium
‘Baby Boy from Brazil’ picks up the Champagne and sprays it, as does ‘One Lap’ Trulli, but the ‘Drunken Finn’ takes a large drink first!
Quote of the Day
Martin Brundle says France is so quiet you can hear your finger nails grow, boy that is quiet!
Black Bloods – 1091 – (287)
A win for the Blog Queen, final the FL specialist fires a warning to her rivals, there is still plenty of time to climb up that table. 1st in the race, last over all. Good choice of Ferrari engines (wonder who her adviser is?)
Distraction – 1434 – (261)
Back and fighting, the Driven team like the Sabres and the Foxes rises like a dieting ginger scouser. The fight is back on.
The Phoenicii – 1361 – (240)
Its getting closer, could the Bull followers make it to the top. 3rd in the week, 4th over all. That is 1 point more than the misses!
Storming Tea Cups – 1440 – (239)
Still at the Top is L Laws top wig wearer, the sugar bowl queen herself. 4th for the race, but still top of the pile. Strong performance by all drivers keep Zoe at the top!
MtBF – 1372 – (194)
Dropping from 2nd to 3rd like a catch to DeBryn, MtBF had a good race, just not good enough, 5th for the race. Maybe its time to make a transfer or 2, those boys from the rising sun are letting her down!
Baggie Greens – 1115 (192)
Last in the race and only supported by the Noirs, The Drunken Finn;s engine performed like the baggie greens team, it needs somewhere to let out gas! Some changes needed before the next race.
Next Race
Will the cuckoo keep his cool like a Songo in a management meeting?
Will the Noirs continue their climb
Will Somerset qualify for the quarter finals (Well its not F1, but it is more interesting!)
Find out at the racing circuit next to the hotel I have stayed in more than any other. COME ON PHILLEPIE!
