Anyone catch Le Mans? Absolutely fantastic race really, a couple of huge and rather scary shunts for McNish and Rockenfeller, but a great fairytale story for the lone Audi to come home and take the victory.

 

That safety car last night lasted well over two hours, so this wait for the F1 race to get back underway isn't really bothering me...they're running out of things to say on commentary. For a while, Brundle and DC sounded a bit like listening to TMS.

 

What did Hamilton do? I've only just turned it on, completely forgot there was F1 this weekend.

 

On the start (well, after the safety car) he went up the inside of Webber and spun him around. He was under investigation for that, AND for breaking the speed time while under the safety car. He then went to pass Button on the pit straight, went into a gap that wasn't really there since Button was on the racing line and is out.

 

10 laps, three stewards investigations and a retirement. He doesn't waste time. Incidentally, Niki Lauda has said on German TV that Hamilton needs to calm down before someone is killed. Lauda might be being a bit extreme there, but he does have a point.
