So many stories to discuss (not least Schuey's recovery), but numbers have been chosen and here's Kimi being Kimi:
Kimi Raikkonen has gone for number 7 on his return to Ferrari, where he was world champion in 2007."There's no particular story linked to it," Finnish driver Raikkonen told www.ferrari.com."It's the number I already had last year and I saw no reason to change it. I like it which is good enough isn't it?"

Going to ignore the latest German tabloid speculation on Schuey and Lotus not testing in Jerez probably because Pastor's cheque hasn't cleared yet to remind you that Bernie is probably going on trial in Munich!
Stoked for the madness if this happens, especially if we find out about all the skeletons in the closet that weren't poorly written in that book about him.

(actually Ligier/Gitanes combination is much underrated and much missed, much like the idea of having a crazy French ex-rugby player running a F1 team)
― wow such doge of venice (King Boy Pato), Wednesday, 12 February 2014 12:25 (eleven years ago)
In 1981 Ligier's old friend François Mitterrand became President of France and when Ligier ran into trouble in 1983 the President ordered that government-owned companies such as Elf, Gitanes and Loto should supply sponsorship.
lol
― 12 years a slave to the rhythm (haitch), Wednesday, 12 February 2014 12:28 (eleven years ago)
In 1992 Ligier realized that the socialist government would not last forever and sold his team to Cyril de Rouvre. He used the money he gained to corner the market in natural fertilizer in central France and set about building another fortune. Within a few months Mitterrand's Socialist Party was annihilated in the elections and Bérégovoy committed suicide.

― wow such doge of venice (King Boy Pato), Saturday, 22 February 2014 11:18 (eleven years ago)
With Ecclestone's legal problems casting doubt over his future in F1, the media has been speculating about his possible successors [...] Ecclestone said it was hard to assess whether they had the right skills needed for the job. "I've no idea what attributes you'd need," he told CNN. "It's like saying we'd need someone to replace Frank Sinatra, you know?"

“I have already expressed my regret about the incident but, after meeting with Toto, Paddy and Lewis today, I wish to go a step further and describe it as an error of judgement on my part.“The number one rule for us as team-mates is that we must not collide but that is exactly what happened.“For that error of judgement, I apologise to Lewis and the team. I also want to say sorry to the fans who were deprived of our battle for the lead in Belgium.
