I dont care what it’s payload is as long as it keeps goin up on a regular basis.If it ever got cancelled that would be the end of manned spaceflight for many ,many years. Only an collabaration[spl?] between countries would get the ball rolling again

Thats the point though, Lewis is inexperienced but he still managed to finish 1 point behind the world champion, and that was because of a gearbox problem. Most of the mistakes he made [and there wasn’t many] he nullified with superb driving.
He had some bad luck, but so did the more ‘experienced’ drivers and yet he still managed to show them all up.Regardless of wether he won the world championship for some one of his age and experience he is a phenomenal driver and will only do better.

Agreed Lewis made mistakes, but that would have left him 8th. From that position he would have been able to move back up the field to at least 4th which would have been enough. He only lost because of the gearbox problem, just bad luck, which all drivers have to contend with.
With regards to the fuel rule. If those teams broke the rule they should be disqualified . You can bet that if Lewis had won the race and championship and was then found to break the rules regarding fuel Ferrari and the other teams would have screamed and screamed.
I also get the impression that many people in F1 were quitely pleased that Lewis did not win as he seemed to steal everyones thunder this year.
Lewis will win next year and many more after that, it promises to ne an interesting time to come.
Just what F1 needs.

Congratulations to all involved with the Vulcan, you did a magnificent job.
But i havent got Sky and i spent all day trying to find a mention of it on BBC and ITN. Not a sausage, no wonder the berks at the BBC are losing their jobs!
It’s a shame that we cant celebrate a momentus acheivment like this and have it reported on our so called top station, shame shame shame.

Still oncw again WELL DONE all involved with the Vulcan.

DBW as you were there you are probably right but looking at the photo’s that’s the funniest shade of blue i have ever seen. Even as a kid i thought it was Brown.
Just goes to show !

Wasn’t it a O-47 that was used in the final scenes of the 1965 ‘Flight of the Phoenix’ due to the original plane crashing, killing Paul Mantz?
