I feel your pain Pete

Would you be able to tape the race for us? I've taken along the requisite amount of Ferrari gear to befit my Tifosi status and Bernie will be in red too, hopefully we might get a camera shot

Sorry to hear you missed out on Sandown - you might have scoredx that big win too

Take care,

Chris

Oy, Tif - bugger off and enjoy the south of France, leave us poor souls here to suffer flu, colds, gales, hale, rain, swarms of locust, rampant crutch fungus infestations etc

PS - have you seen the free practice times - most odd - Schuey snr fastest, no great shock, but second, only 0.07sec. adrift is Heinz Harold in the Arrows.

Stange.

And it looks like Matt needs to knock up some wonder bits of CF for the Jags - they are well back

Cheers Ian! I'll check out the times now.

FWIW we had 650km of rain too today...

Will do Chris. Do you want me to tape the ITV coverage or the Sky? (bearing in mind I shall be leaping around the 8 screens and all my leaping will be captured on tape)

I'm taping it as well...If you want a non 8 screen jumoing around affair, just shout..although I'm sure it will be a lot less interesting than Petes "directors cut"

Cheers Ian, if the rest of the days are as good as this we'll be happy bunnies. Once again, big thanks to Paul Gainham - the hotel restaurant was fantastic, amazing cellar too

Thanks for staying tuned

Tif
Hi Tif, glad you enjoyed the hotel, its not bad is it.

Be interested to hear how long in actual driving hours it took you to get to Barcelona ?

When i spoke to Tif at the race, he said that he was trying to get on the internet out there but with not much luck.
He said that the drive down was good but continental roads aren't very forgiving when you miss a turning (Junctions to not allow you to turn around) as he got lost in France.

Oh well, we'll just have to wait until he gets back to tell us the rest.

OK, back on air This is a very hectic "holiday"

We had a great time at the race and in Barcelona, Edgar (Papi) took us into town for some great Tapas. What a crazy city, 12:00 am on a Sunday night and still a long wait for a table!! After that we've been up to Pau in France for a track day ( ) via an amazing journey through the Pyrennees (Ordessa national park - amazing roads) and now we are in Andora. Great driving, no problems with Bob (touch wood!) and a great time so far.

See you all this weekend

Tif
