Re: The HRT thread

Although i don't think a colour scheme can speed a car up i am pretty sure that it managed to slow down honda in 2007 and 2008. Maybe Colin is hoping that it can have the reverse effect if it looks really sleek and cool, or he will just paint on a picture of a fast car. At least the car almost defin...

Re: the greatest driver never to have competed in F1?

I am going to have to say Colin McRae. Rally legend and amazing show man. Other than that maybe rydell and menu from th touring car glory days. Or even Plato, although he would probably crash before the first corner most of the time.

Re: Dog?

I think not as he has always had the disease, and is subsequently why he always plays in some kind of glasses. Basically he is too old and his comeback was even less successful than Michael Schumachers.(But probably better than Ralfs)

Sakon Yamamoto for ROTR.

Simple reason that it may be his only chance of the season/ever.
