    You don’t have to; you can come from the other direction…

    …but as you say, you can pass the other memorial…..and that’s exactly what I did last time I was there…..I drove past it. 😮

    Yes, nice fella.

    Is it even theoretically possible, twins with different fathers certainly, triplets with two different fathers even…..but triplets with three different fathers?

    My original post was intended as a joke to highlight the tone of the article from the Sun.

    You all knew that, right? 😉

    From the BBC website:

    “McLaren have been given a suspended three-race ban for misleading stewards at the Australian Grand Prix by motor sport’s governing body, the FIA.”

    “This will only be applied if further facts emerge regarding the case or if, in the next 12 months, there is a further breach by the team of article 151 c of the International Sporting Code.”

    Twelve months? Does that mean that this penalty is to extend into next season?

    There is a very good video (at the bottom of the page) on the BBC website that synchronises the McLaren radio and the view from Trulli’s Toyota.

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/motorsport/formula_one/8024661.stm

    After the race serious errors of judgement were made by McLaren but the video clearly shows the confusion Hamilton suffered and the fear that he had inadvertently broken the Safety Car rules.

    If the article is to be believed this doesn’t seem to be an isolated case:

    “Her takeaways confession comes as figures show a shocking one in five children are raised on little but junk food.”

    “The Infant and Toddler Forum poll also discovered that 65 per cent of mums never cook meals from scratch.”

    It’s interesting that the comments so far have been directed at her personally…

    I know it’s late but come on people!

    …and I bet all three triplets are by a different father! :rolleyes:

    …three…triplets…by…a…different…father?

    In my opinion this whole incident was caused by a young Hamilton trying desperately not to risk any accusations of cheating.

    Remembering the incident with Räikkönen at the Belgian Grand Prix, Hamilton was unsure whether he had done the correct thing in passing Trulli, who was off the track, under the Safety Car. Although he had in fact acted completely correctly, fearful of a penalty, he allowed Trulli to pass him, and the far more experienced Trulli should have damn-well known better than to pass under the Safety car.

    The man ultimately responsible for the accusations of cheating, Dave Ryan, has already paid the price by losing his job, after 35 years with the team…..and now is not a good time to be out-of-work in Formula One.

    This controversy has nothing to do with Ron Dennis handing over control of McLaren as this was announced before the start of the 2009 season.

    This isn’t cheating, not by Formula One standards, other teams have gotten away with far worse but then I’m sure Lewis Hamilton isn’t very popular with some of the other drivers. Just my two cents.
