Re: WTCC Rejects

Fabio Fabiani surely. Or Felice Tedeschi, who debuted at the age of 50+ (I think) last year in Sonoma. He came, saw... and ploughed the BMW into the barrier in the very first session of the weekend so hard, that it rolled and could not be repaired for the races. After that, he was out.

Re: Ponderbox

Now here's something rejectful: For 2013, DTM has introduced the 'lap time penalty'. When you leave the circuit too often, you must drive one second slower than the lap before the offense. If you do it again, two seconds, again makes four seconds, fourth time is a stop-go-penalty. Under yellow flags...

Well, Red Bull actually need Webber to get out of the way now. Mark has shown that he's quite a liability in terms of PR, Red Bull can't afford another stunt like this. And obviously, either Mark isn't quick enough to win the championship or Red Bull are not willing to make him win it (e.g. by givin...

What happened to Andrea Sassetti?

Hi guys,

I've just finished reading Perry McCarthy's biography "Flat Out, Flat Broke" and wondered what happened to Andrea Sassetti after his F1 team went bollocks and he got out of jail. He can't just have disappeared, can he?

Cheers
