I actually left early because the Speedway had their schedule wrong. The last practice was 530p -550pm according to the Speedway's website when in actuality it was 715-745pm. Of course, the website corrected the schedule just before final practice when I already left.

Rosberg has apologised for the error of judgement

There you go Nico. Was that so hard?

The Nick Kaeding of racing, aka the fastest choker in racing, finally won a championship. I was hoping for Simon Pagenaud to win. I wasn't rooting for Will Power or Helio (Greg Moore would've had multiple championships by now). Good job to JPM on finishing 4th in the standings and race. If your weight jacket wasn't broken you would've won the race.

I wish to go a step further and describe it as an error of judgement on my part.

'For that error of judgement, I apologise to Lewis and the team.







I also want to say sorry to the fans who were deprived of our battle for the lead in Belgium.

Max Verstappen has crashed his Toro Rosso during his first F1 demo event in Rotterdam. Having been confirmed as a Toro Rosso driver for 2015, Verstappen - currently 16 years old - was demonstrating a Red Bull RB7 in Toro Rosso livery when he got stuck near a barrier after completing some donuts. Once Verstappen had been moved away from the barrier, he then proceeded to turn the car round but hit a different barrier and wiped the front wing off the car.

Youthful exuberance. Better to have it during a demo.

I think that's fair since his engine died on lap 1 in Belgium.

Agreed....Erricson has not shown me that he is ready for F1.....granted its Caterham, but he is terribly SLOW

I wonder how long the Alonso/McLaren saga is going to rumble on? Reports out of Japan are that the Honda powerplant is a long way off from the Mercedes at this point.
