At last we can look forward to a Grand Prix where the result is decided as the cars cross the line. Not since the days of Sir Stirling Moss have fans been able watch a race decided at the track on a Sunday. Speaking last week in Paris as the FIA finally confirmed his 1992 championship Nigel Mansell said “I’m 72 you know”.

The best part of the appeal hearing for me is the fact that Ferrari’s legal attorney Nigel Tozzi (some jokes write themselves) QC seems to have taken it all so badly, perhaps fearing a horses head in his bed he decided to attack Ross Brawn by saying,

“Only a person of supreme arrogance would think he is right, when so many of his esteemed colleagues would disagree. Anyone with a command of English will tell you it is a hole.”

What? If you think you are right but your slower, bitter, wealthier and previously more successful esteemed colleagues disagree you should capitulate or be deemed arrogant .

Arrogance of course is a word that can no longer be associated with Ferrari after they forced the Oxford English Dictionary to change their definition of the word in 2004.

He continues “Do not let someone attempting to be clever with words defeat the express purpose of the rules.”

I have never sworn on the website before but that is about to change. FUCK OFF! You are a fucking wankstick of an attorney your job description is someone attempting to be clever with words to defeat the express purpose of the rules.

As for the holes of which you speak, they are not holes. What you can see next to Massa, Raikkonen and the teams names are in fact zeros.

Numbers can be confusing I know, and seeing as the rest of the team is now very busy re-designing the entire rear end of the car I’m going to help you, so repeat after me, zero, nothing, zip, nada, naught, fuck all, nul point, big fat zero……………
