I think Suzuki was a good driver if inconsistent. I think most people would place Katayama above him but I'm not so sure. Definitely the best Japanese F1 driver until Sato rolled around.

I can't mock Britain for their/our attitude to electrical saftey. Plug sockets you can turn off with fuses in them, brilliant home fuse boxes, power strips with fuses :allears:

meanwhile in parts of Victoria they can't keep the loving voltage constant, I hope you were not too attached to any of your Canada priced white goods kids, enjoy your sag, good luck.

They also ensure the plug/wire sits flush to the wall instead of being an annoyance / trip hazard. And they actually stay in the socket unlike those stupid flimsy two-prong things they use in the US.

Also a ranking of things not to tread on in the dark:

5: Scorpions
4. Crocodiles
3. Snakes
2. Lego
1. BS 1363 (Type G) plugs.

Well both are technically true. The only F2 stand alone event is at Jerez in October.

I've made a huge mistake.
MacLaren's Stoffel 2.0 has taken the championship lead in Nigel Farage's favourite racing league. It will take a something drastic, such as a Bolivian kidnap ring holding him hostage for the Movie Theatre mogal millions of his father, for him not to qualify for an FIA Super-duper racing license and replace the reanimated corpse of Alonso in 2018.

Lmao Claire Williams telling Ferrari/Raikkonen to "gently caress off" is amazing. This is actually a good film.
