F1 2018

[Limejuice]

We are on a very long road trip starting next week for 3 or 4 weeks, so I'm not sure where we will be for the British GP and the German GP. We hope to be back by the time of the Hungary GP. Looking at the map we will cover around 18,000KM

Yep, I've been known to go that extra mile to find a decent drop of beer.

I want to fly to Montevideo and have the car shipped there and drive back, but the others want to drive and visit some people both on the way there and way back. Direct would be about 12,000km round trip but we have to zig-zag which adds thousands of kilometers

Flying and hiring cars would be much easier but cost loads more I say fuck the money, sitting in a car for over 300 hours isn't something I'm looking forward to

OK that's me I'm off to the bar to watch the 2nd half of France Vs Argentina and later Uruguay Vs Portugal, catch you tomorrow for the race

Links for race here for anyone who needs them

Was out in (the pouring rain) Cornwall and decided to pop in an unknown pub to dry off before heading home for the start of the GP.

Pint of local cider later the barman put the F1 on a BIG screen right in front of me ordered a roast beef dinner (for £6.50 ) and more cider

I am done for the day

£6.50 for a roast dinner sound good value, how much is a pint of cider nowadays in the UK?

There's a spot or two of football later, so you might want to settle in for a session.

Why is that helicopter carrying a pair of balls over the circuit?

 

[Limejuice]

Ah, the Red Bull team have gone all Austrian for the race.

Christian H in lederhosen.

Do we get to see Adrian Newey in a dirndl frock?

Not a roast, but my old lady has just given me a plate of Pão de queijo (Brazilian cheese bread)

 

[Limejuice]

Now I'm feeling peckish.

 

[Limejuice]

Botty back to second!!!

[Limejuice]

Hulk alight.

£6.50 for a roast dinner sound good value, how much is a pint of cider nowadays in the UK?

£3.60 for a decent cider in this place
£2.69 for a Strongbow in Wetherspoons

I predict lashings of verruca cocktails if Danny Ric gets a decent podium on his birthday.

 

[Limejuice]

Will Kimi get the "Sebastian is faster than you" call?

Race on now!!!

 

[Limejuice]

This race isn't working out for Mercedes. First and second has become 4th and stationary.

 

[Limejuice]

Unhappy Hammy, according to the radio calls.

 

[Limejuice]

It seems that the hotter track temps today means the tyres are degrading faster than they hoped.

 

[Limejuice]

Expect Danny Ric in the pits any time now.

Hammy's tyres are blistered too.

I don't think the three in front will be immune to deg, so there might be some switcheroo to come.

 

[Limejuice]

Hammy - new tyres and a late charge.

 

[Limejuice]

No verruca cocktails today.
