Like the Daily Fail headline over it.

At least he's had one success this season! Lewis Hamilton wins battle to cut down 'beautiful' sugarplum tree outside his £18m Kensington mansion despite neighbours' claims that F1 legend is 'destroying nature'

It seems he has owned the house for 5 years and never spent a day in it. (Its being fully 'overhauled and renovated)
Given how many of the neighbours he seems to have upset already, it's probably good he hasn't spent any time there. Good luck to him when he does is all I can say. I wouldn't expect too many 'welcome to the neighbourhood' messages from the sound of it :haha:

I have huge concerns with Hollywood studios banking on a popular actor to make an F1 film. Last time we got "Driven".
Something tells me this will be only mildly better.

Lewis producing won't help. He probably has just enough of an investment to act as a consultant, but the final call will be with some stuffed shirt in California trying to increase the entertainment value.

You never know, could be realistic.

Brad Pitt could be asking 'why are we on this strategy' every few laps, or saying 'these fronts are shot guys' before doing another 20 laps on them

Each time while shifting up yet another gear to pass a car down a 2-minute long straight.

Sorry, I'm still scarred from Winning.

Pit Guy: Brad, you're a lap down! But don't worry, we've fitted this car with a special turbo and a 32 gear gearbox. You have 3 laps to pass everyone on the track and still win.

Driver Brad: Thanks chief! Even with these shot tires, I can get it done! [Eye of the Tiger plays as he leaves the pits]
{Driver Brad peels out of the pits and continues to shift up for the next 3 laps passing everyone}

My favourite part is always when they finally decide to push the accelerator down yet another inch, to make that all deciding last pass in the movie :haha:

Can't believe she was driving when she said that, can't we have intelligent female characters?

Rumours it's now a remake of the 7 dwarves. Bumpy, bouncy, unlucky, duff strategy, stuck behindy, windy and senility

I expect a SC and then Michael Masi appears and everything will be allright! That will p*ss off every LHIG*-fan.

Mind you, even Most-guys-do Trinity was merely a love interest, in the end. Don't ever expect Hollywood to accept equality. Cleavage comes before conscience.
