Sebby V.......either him or Massa.

I have to agree with Sebby V at this moment mfer. Massa. I'm not so sure.

Hmmmmm and you don't think Mark has a chance???
I would think Mark would be a better choice than Massa. Plus he will be wanting revenge for last years hijacking of the WDC by his team mate. He may just be the dragon slayer this year!!!!!

I think it will be a battle of three. Vettel, Webber & Alonso. The same three combatants from last years title race.

You've done a mighty fine job on the bar Mfer. Love the new posters you've hung around the place.
(as I peak through the slightly ajar door)
I think the patrons are beginning to gather outside. The F1 season must be just about upon us.

Thanks, cmlean!

*Walks outside, sees the gathering crowds and whistles, thinking to himself, "This is gonna' be one hell of a year!".........*

Before I forget.....talk about posters & photographs to hang on the walls of the Idiots Bar here; I just got the last of the photos' to hang on the wall here..........

The photo, taken during last year's LeMans 24, won an ACO award for photography. Motorsport's Eric Gilbert, if I recall, took the above photo; he won an ACO photography award for the photo(IIRC it was 3rd....should've been 1st for what it's worth....). Here's a brief snippet about the photo........

24 Hours of Le Mans, 2010-06-09: the decisive moment. In photography, there seems to be two approaches: candid vs staged. My favorite? Both, at the same time: the spontaneity of a candid shot, with the polished look of a staged one. This photo showing teammates Cyndie Allemann and Natacha Gachnang in an impromptu briefing during the Wednesday night practice for the 24 Hours of Le Mans, is a prime example. A quick touch of wireless flash provided the 'staged' look, while the wide angle lens gave me the flexibility to catch the 'decisive moment' at the right angle. As for the focal point of the photo, Cyndie's eyes, they are a story on their own: playful without a helmet, killer-instinct-ly focused with the helmet on. Simply priceless......

I think tonight will be a god night in the lounge. Friday practice kicks off in the morning so there should be a bit of friendly banter about.
First practice at 12:30 local time (GMT+11)
