McLaren given suspended three–race ban →
“Lucky” is probably the appropriate word to describe McLaren today. Maybe “thankful” as well.

Watching F1: 2009 Bahrain GP
Now that I’m back in uni, I don’t have a TV, so I’m stuck with watching it on the BBC’s website. Oddly, despite having — in theory — unlimited bandwidth on campus, I can’t play the high–quality feed. Bummer. Is there anyway to disable that text commentary under the video? It seems to be making the video feed all jerky. This is how bad the connection is: I was...

“We are very serious about entering Formula One in 2010 providing that it is...”
– David Richards Maybe this whole budget cap thing will really pull in more and more entrants to Formula One. Probably not in these conditions, but once the outlook on the economy picks up again. And say they do get into F1, will they race as Prodrive, as per the original, but abandoned, plan for...

I was on the M1 just now, and I swear I just saw a car that is a replica of the matte black, evil, mafia–like car from Burnout Paradise. Should’ve taken a picture…

Watching F1: 2009 Chinese GP
Got up early for the third and last time this Easter break to watch F1. It’s raining in Shanghai? I was only expecting cloudy weather, not rain. I thought the Brawns were getting new liveries this weekend. That spray looks terrible. I wonder how this condition compares to Monza last season. Massa’s not happy. Räikkönen’s really dropped it. I was hoping Kovaleinen could...

Had my hair cut last night, now re–bleaching it. Using a different bleach this time, which doesn’t sting as much as the old one. Also the first time I’m doing my hair myself; my sister used to do it for me.

Petition: Xbox offline profile to LIVE! profile... →
Decided to sign it because a friend of mine used to have an offline profile on my Xbox and recently got his own 360 and immediately signed up for the free, complimentary 1–month Gold membership, which resulted in him losing his old achievements and Gamerscore. I thought you could merge offline and online Gamertags, so the fact that you can’t is surprising to me. And quite dumb. Why...

F1 2009: Malaysian GP
Just woke up and missed the start of the second Formula One grand prix this season. This Alonso–Glock–Vettel battle is good. How did Button lose first place? He started in pole. Kubica and Kovaleinen are out? How? Rain! This’ll be fun. That’s spray. That’s wet. Red flag‽ Now that’s not fun. Oh, so they reform on the grid. This is the first time I’ve seen a red...

I am not a liar, insists Hamilton →
I saw this yesterday morning in my RSS reader and thought, “Wait, isn’t this over? Maybe it’s bogus.” I’m going to quote Martin Brundle here: “I can’t believe McLaren have allowed themselves to get into this position.” Though on the other hand, I would’ve thought the FIA had checked everything before delivering a verdict, especially something...
