Morning.
The race last night was a bit bumpy !

I think it is time for the race officials to employ Tyson Fury to hand out time penalties in the pits . I think it would be a much fairer system .
Also penalties should be served at the time and not added on after the race .

Georgie was a dirty little stop out last night . He managed to get past me last night and got through his cat flap . He hadn't come back in by the time we went to bed and that was after the GP highlights .
I think he must have spent the night singing along with his friends as he is very quiet and tired this morning .

Morning all. Tea's up.
I haven't watched F1 for years but this one looked like it had enough ''interest'' to be worth watching. Absolute madness with garish colours. I think that the gains in car safety have resulted in losses in safe driving, particularly as the restarts positions seemed to be worked out by negotiations and offers between stewards and teams when the race was red flagged.

I was left with the impression that Verstappen only has to take Hamilton out in the last race to win the championship by counting back the number of races won this season. That's not racing, it's combat.

I agree.
What is the point of a time penalty if it has no effect ? It should be served within a certain time period and in the pits .
As you say the championship could be over within the first corner if he sees that the other contender is likely to get away . It looked like he tried several times in the race .

Busy day for me...get a load stuff stashed up in the loft and Christmas decs down, clean the house top to bottom, ironing, source a small metal file to enlarge the holes in my mudguard clips so I can fit them on my fixed axle bike, fit said mudguards, food shop, cycle the 10 miles to pick Mini T up from school and then back with him, cook macaroni cheese for tea

Exhausted just thinking about it! Coffee and toast first then ill try and muster up the energy to get started 😴

 

[Illaveago]

It has started to rain . A few spots at the moment . If we get any proper rain I will wash my car .

While I remember I checked Connel Bridge last night and height is indeed in feet and inches as well as metric.

It's cheaper to drink beer

In coffee?

It’s going to be cold and wet today according to the forecast. As I’m outside all day, I’m really hoping the forecast is wrong

Didn't seem too bad when I went out with the dog. Then it started raining.

Just giver her the tablets, dropped one on the floor & it disappeared, the other she took happily & came back for more.

Sugar free

I have these, now.. Red on sugars, you'll see 😎

 

[Illaveago]

It is now raining properly so I have washed my car .
I'm resting now . Listening to Pop Master .
