Sure... Here's one: If your salt and pepper shakers clog up, just add a few grains of uncooked rice to them to keep them dry

When they go for less driver aids the true champions will shine. Or at least thats what I am hoping to happen...
I fear that idea is going to become a vicious cycle.....they shall reduce driver aids, and then reach a point where they complain about safety and re-introduce them.....and so the cycle continues.....
Yep. The cars were near perfect back in 1993-1994. Then they decided to increase the driver factor lest the race become too machine oriented... Those aids slowly crept back into the F1 paddock over the course of 2000-2004. Everyone was so busy watching Ferrari and Schumi no one really noticed... And now... Yeah, it is a cycle.

After his retirement Alonso will be in a flick called Pink Panther's Grandson

Is that rather mystified look on his face the
"what the hell went wrong?" look

He is not going to get there and be fighting for wins straight away.....
And will have to keep the new clean shaven look he is already sporting. All about the image you know
DC had to move to RBR to grow some hair on his face.

No one is allowed to have hair much longer than Denis'

Hello GhoGho
Even though Alonso The Cute (looks even cuter now) has moved to McLaren, I still have a soft spot for Renault and I hope they do well next year
(and finish 2nd behind McLaren
)
Have seen the new haircut.

Minor correction: before it was hair, now it's a haircut
