Apparently that was a bus used to transport and collect marshalls from their posts, supposedly released at an inappropriate time in a 'communication breakdown'.

Yeah I was reading about that earlier. They did their best to recreate San Marino 1985, but not quite.

Charles leclerc won the feautre race at jerez clinching the F2 championship. The spanish organiser celebrated him on the podium playing la marsilleise, the french national hymn.
Funny enough but leclerc races under monaco flag. Epic fail

Hehehe.... like when Alan Jones won his first GP, the 1977 Austrian GP, in a Shadow, they did not know or have the Australian anthem... So, instead they had a drunk play ‘Happy Birthday’ on a trumpet.

By coincidence today I watched the GP on SkyF1 in a Sports Bar.... as part of the lead up to the race Sky played the episode of Grand Prix Legends referring to AJ, and he related this tale to Steve Ryder.

I can't begin to imagine how many times, growing up watching F1 on Channel 9, I saw AJ tell that damn story to Darryl Eastlake!

Lando Norris (sounds like a pornstar) wins Euro F3-series ahead of Joel Eriksson.

Is Lando the real-deal or is he another Stroll?

Stroll is talented but maligned by his father's money and the poor driving standards of his first 1/2 year in F3. Norris is very talented and is already part of McLaren's junior driver program.

What kind of porn are you watching? :dunno:

I'm just asking, not judging...

I think he might well be the real deal.... I have been following his career for some time now and we have discussed him in other areas of the forum.
