    Errr, no. Absolutely 100% Perez's fault. Sainz drifted slightly to the left, but he was following the natural racing line along that stretch and Perez was the driver behind with full visibility of what was going on (vs Sainz only having a tiny mirror to look into). Perez didn't maintain the gap...

    Friday at Baku all done. At the moment, it looks like McLaren are struggling with Mercedes and Ferrari looking better and Red Bull back in the frame as a front runner. Norris says the car just isn't working so far. Let's hope they can find something in the data overnight to improve the car for...

    I can believe that, based on how they've approached things so far. It's a terminology thing really. Oscar will know that what he's been "asked" to do in backing Norris is a) only a request, but b) one that if he doesn't follow through on could lead to him being disadvantaged in future. It's...

    Think that's actually a smart play from McLaren. There's rumours doing the rounds now that they actually think Piastri has the better long-term potential. If that's true, they won't want to do anything to piss him off. It's possible that we see a situation where 2025 is "given" to Norris...

    Relocation will be one factor. I think the other that cannot be underestimated is the shareholding he's being given. I've not yet seen how significant that holding is/will be, but historically one of the key reasons why Newey left Williams is because they refused to give him an entry route to...

    Newey confirmed at Aston Martin from early next year. Interesting (previously unknown) tidbit to come out this morning is that he'll actually become a shareholder as well. In other news McLaren have agreed for Bortoleto to pursue talks with Sauber/Audi about driving for them, with a loan...

    Aston Martin will be holding a press conference tomorrow morning, 11am (Europe, so 10am here). So, 2026: Aston Martin Honda designed by Adrian Newey.

    [Misc] Plantar Fasciitis...

    Only thing I can think of is a highly inappropriate joke based on "fasciitis" resembling "fascism", but I'll refain. Your situation does sound nasty though, hope you get it resolved.

    Nice! 'Grats to her :). Hadn't seen that they've brought the "z" back. My first bike was a 1983 Kawasaki z250 according to the rego documents, but it'd been through a few owners before me and I'm pretty sure a lot of the parts had been replaced over the years with bits from other model years...

    Brief post made via mobile phone was very brief 😋 . Alfriston insisted all through the morning that the pitch was ok to play on, so we travelled to the ground. Beautiful setting, although the ground itself is weird (it must have originally been on a bit of a slope before someone decided that the...

    Well that's us done. Relegated by the weather. Game called off as pitch unsafe to bowl on.

    There's nuances to this, I think. 4 years of experience with my Zoe and the most efficient runs I've had with it have all been longer distance - 65 mile (each way) trips to the office, with most of the journey being on the M25 (majority of what isn't on the M25 being the A22). I would often get...

    Australia has very strict border entry rules around food products etc, make sure you know what you are and are not allowed to bring in. Could save you a lot of time coming through customs.

    Similar story here at Uckfield. We've also been doing All Stars / Dynamos. We ran our sessions on Sunday mornings, and had around 50 kids across all the age groups (All Stars starting at reception / KS1, and all the way up to our junior squads for playing ... which IIRC this season was 2x hard...

    'grats! Enjoyed reading your recaps here through the season. So thanks to you for starting the thread. I've got 1 more match to come this weekend (our must-win against table-toppers Alfriston at their place). Thoroughly enjoyed my first (almost ... darned summer holidays!) full season since...

    [Football] Sutton United Ladies put their head above the parapet

    That's the multi-million £ question. And not one I have an answer to myself. Unfortunately, I don't think any of the "answers" that have been tried so far are going to last the distance either. Largely because there isn't a large enough body of scientific research, and the solutions being tried...

    [Football] Sutton United Ladies put their head above the parapet

    In that case, you're not using that phrase in the way that the vast majority would understand it. That phrase has been used a lot in reference to people who are born physically one gender but firmly believe they are the other gender. It's a phrase that they use themselves, to describe the way...
