Actually, he's not the star in the reasonably priced car - that's James Blunt. Which is almost enough for me not to watch!!! He does drive the previous car though, which is what all the previous F1 guys did. Which F1 boys have been on? Damon, Webber, anyone else?

See Hammond is getting to drive Alonso's 2005 Renault F1 car. That's a recipe for disaster!

Was just clarifying that he wasn't the star in the reasonably priced car, but would as with all F1 boys be in the Liana :D;)

I'm with you though, can't wait!!!

Thanks Andy, I did want to say anything as Ewan can be very picky. ;)

Ooops, I've probably said too much already, he'll probably find fault with something I said in this post as well :D

There is nothing wrong with being factually correct :-)

Well that's decided it then...I'm going out especially to buy some paint and get ready for tomorrow night.

Round about the same time Top Gear starts....I'll crack open the tin...brush a coat on...and watch it dry.

I think that will be far more interesting than watching that prat Clarkson rip another set of tyres off of a perfectly good car.
:rolleyes: :D

See that's just ridiculous. You'd ruin the screen on a perfectly good telly doing that.

But if you insist, make sure you use a water base paint, so that it washes off ok.

Naw, he saw it, he just has trouble counting to ten since his finger was lopped off after getting it stuck pulling that last bogey out his nose.:D

A.:o ;) :D

Oh my god, he did a 1.44.7 on a wet and oily track! That's 3 seconds quicker than Webber and only a tenth slower than Mansell did in the dry.

How the hell did he do it, he was singing!!!!

Just shows his talent and car control with that time. And even the Stig wanted to know how he did it...

He was as quick as Jenson Button, but when Button went round it was dry. I remember Clarkson saying that you loose 4 seconds when it's wet. They guy is a driving God..........

It was a good time and he is fast but all the hype...even now they are saying he will be crowned world champion next year.

History tells us than Maclaren cant keep it going for long before there is a major design fault...so we will see.

GO KIMI!
