"It has probably been the shortest winter I have ever had out of the car. I spent Christmas and New Year training in the mountains and I even put a turbo on my snowmobile, so that I could get used to the feel of a vehicle delivering power in that way, which was pretty awesome.

  Oh yeah, that'll really help, Lewis. :lol:

The turbo'd snowmobile definitely didn't help. Hamilton has put the car into the barrier.

Anyone seen any news of the Caterham car yet?   No sign of it on the Facebbok page and it was supposed to be launched this morning.

Yep, they're been assembling the thing since yesterday. Somebody forgot to bring the assembly instructions, so they put it together wrong to start with. Fcuking amateurs. Big Tony will pull the plug on them at the end of this season.
