I wonder if Lewis will take the normal line or that different one which all the other F1 drivers have, of their own accord?
Got a tip for us?

I wonder if they still have the Liana or if they will have Lewis start a new F1 drivers board.

Ooh, don't you know how to make a girl feel special.for two days only... the Ape is back baby.
Though you don't deserve the honour because you still owe me an email. ;-) Chop chop LauLau chop chop
Eek! Better get cracking then, hadn't I? :o (I knew you'd say that!)
I would assume that he takes the curious F1 line. I always wondered why they did that, I think it's because the F1 car has better brakes so the angle into the corners is different. But there must be something good about it since Mansell beat The Stig (who doesn't use the F1 line and so isn't an F1 driver???)
Hopefully the Liana otherwise there isn't really any comparison. Will he beat Stig's 1.44.4? I'd put money on it.
Hamilton's 174cm tall (5'8"ish in proper numbers) according to his McClaren profile, so he's not exactly a giant.
Anything under 6'2" qualifies as being a shortarse, I'm afraid.Nit picking I know but 174cm = 5'8½" it counts for us shorties you know

Unless you're a fighter pilot or open-wheel race driver.
They probably filmed him before the F1 season was over, eh?

You obviously didn't watch "Superhuman: Giants" on ITV tonight then.
Yeah, Lewis is tiny, no surprise given what he does, most are fairly short I thought.
Still, good job he's got being a multi-millionaire sporting hero under his belt. I don't think the ladies will mind his short arse.

I don't think The Stig has ever driver an F1 car in terms of racing. I know that he does race, but the cars he races are a bit heavier than F1 cars and don't always need to brake quite as often as an F1 car.....
What do we REALLY know about The Stig?
"some say, he has a USB port in his left nostril, and that his actions are carried out telepathicaly, by god."
Any one here a story on the radio (Radio 2 I believe) yesterday that one of the presenters (didn't say who) would be leaving after this series? Didn't hear it myself but my wife told me about it last night.

We know that there is a UK based racing driver who was quoted in the crash investigation for the Richard Hammond crash as being a regular high performance test driver for the BBC show, Top Gear.
I think we also know that there is more than one Stig at the moment, but the main identity is reasonably well know by some people. Especially his team mate who didn't do much to deny when asked!
If it was any of them I would guess at James May. I just get the opinion that he is getting a bit fed up of all the piss-taking!
Does he ever really do anything very important?
He's not as good as the other two, that captain slow joke's getting a bit old in my opinion.
Probably is James May. Although if it were Hammond, I'd understand, as it seems they're trying to kill the little guy!
Is ANYTHING on Top Gear important? It's just light entertainment.
I like James May, I'd say he's just as good if not better than the other two, but it's the ensemble that really works.
I find Hammond and Clarkson just too fake and scripted, to me May seems less willing to act surprised about things that really aren't that surprising. Hammond sometimes plays a bad stooge to Clarkson unconvincing magician whose hanky is clearly stuffed up his sleeve for all be the really unobservant viewer to see.
He is the yang to the other's ying, and in my opinion an integral part of the team. I'm sure the piss-taking is all pre-arranged during the production meetings and he's got no problem with it.
So do you have a name? You seem to know what racing class he's in (judging from your previous comment about his driving).
And if there are multiple Stigs why did they make such a big deal out of "killing" the last one?
