It's not new news but it is to here, apparently Toto Wolf was recorded by an "ex team boss" and was attempted to be blackmailed by the said person.

I've googled a bit, anyone know who it was who tried that? :?

I don't remember Kolles being the boss of Force India.

Oh I know, but I just don't remember it very well. He was quite anonymous once Force India took over from Jordan nee Midland nee Spyker.

Presumably they didn't make him run on dry tyres like some other morons in Moscow did today.

Yeah, I know he's mad and I don't care. I do not care. I did not care then. I do not care now. I'm here to race him.

Air temperatures expected to hit 39c during the Hungarian GP.

That's Mercedes fucked.

Maybe trying to do burnouts on a wet road wasn't such a good idea. Slightly random the PA is in French, do many Russians speak French?

One of the International Languages. Less weird than the announcements at the London Olympics being made in French before English (other official International Language) ... also weird that it's not Spanish as that's the second most widely spoken first language after Chinese (which sort of cheats by having a sixth of the world's population) but I may be saying that as a Francophobe who speaks Spanish.

At least Kobayashi's crash wasn't as knobish as that guy that crashed the Renault a few years back.




Kobayashi at least had the excuse that it was wet....though he was a F1 driver not some random rich dude.

it's nice to see that car crash as the livery is simply horrible.

That's the result of not allowing cars to race in wet conditions. Even Koba had forgotten how to handle the car in slippery track :p

Red Bull Ring on Facebook:
"Sensational breaking news: next year on the 6th July 2014, it has finally come. Formula 1 coming to Styria, Spielberg at Red Bull ring!"

I've had a crisis!
