Lack of Reject-avatars
Re: Lack of Reject-avatars
A good reject avatar for me. It is from the Mecachrome days of Williams. Just saying that is rejectful enough! ![Laughing :lol:](./images/smilies/icon_lol.gif)

That was the first bad Williams car I ever saw (have started to watch in about 1994).

Re: Lack of Reject-avatars
I got the great Fabrizio Barbazza in the AGS as mine.
Miserable Thierry (Boutsen) staggers round mostly on ten cylinders (out of 12) with no clutch, low oil pressure, bad brakes and no grip to finish tenth, 3 laps down...

Thats a point these days!

@ DavidAGS
I like your avatar![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif)
Especially, because Fabrizio was a Minardi driver as well and he scored a point in the famous 93 European GP at Donington (why does Senna get all the praise for his first lap efforts and nobody ever mentions this?).
Can you tell me something about AGS' sponsor "Tennen"? I think they sponsored the team towards the end of its existence. I ask because I grew up in a tiny village (seven inhabitants at the time, four today) named: Tennen. It certainly wasn't us, so who was it?

Re: Lack of Reject-avatars
Ive done some 'research': No Tennen sponsor on AGS. They didnt have many anyway

Håpla, I finally have a picture! And if I couldn't get one of the actual headline from The Sun, Pedro Diniz climbing out of his burning Ligier will have to do the job. So he wasn't a reject, certainly not according to the rules of this site, but the picture is appropriate to my username, which is what swung it.

Piquet Jr isn't a reject, but he's been stuck in my avatar for as long as I can remember! Diniz in the oven is one of the best sports headlines ever though (second only to: "Dindane's double bursts Bolton's bubble")

That's actually a rip-off of a Liverpool Gazette headline - "SUPER CALLY GOES BALLISTIC, QPR ATROCIOUS". Cally being Ian Callaghan.

Williams isn't a team even though... well you know.
I think the picture on the right is self-explanatory

So Nick Heidfeld bores you? Or is it meant to be a book written by Nick Heidfeld? "I am slightly bored," by Nick Heidfeld.

I must admit this is probably true. Especially in my case, in which the only thing reject is the moustache and the 1995 season.
Anyway, while I agree with that statement, I feel compelled to disagree with the second part of your sig. When Vettel is racing behind someone you always get excited just to think that you may watch yet another unbelievably stupid crash.

If Heidfeld wins a race this season, I will use it as my avatar.
I like the way Snrub thinks!
Re: Lack of Reject-avatars
I originally had a photo of Pedro Diniz in the 1995 Forti, but I switched to this family photo of the Life team a while ago.

When Team Fernandes or Team Air Asia score, I should have put. Group Bahar have already scored.
