Formula One: Difference between revisions

*** Came back, drives around in the middle of the field. For someone off the track for 4 years practically driving the first time again (not counting training of course) it is a solid performance, tho people have been expecting top-3 positions due to his legend...

* ''Fernando Alonso'', Spaniard, second youngest two time world champion. Ended Schumacher's dominance in 2005 and 2006.

* ''Jenson Button'': The 2009 English champion, who finally came into prominence after his team (Honda) bounced back as the [[Awesome McCoolname|Brawn GP Team]] when team manager Ross Brawn bought it from the carmaker after they pulled out of the sport (nearly preventing Button from racing) and retrofitted it with a Mercedes-Benz engine, and caught everyone by surprise by blazing the competition.

* ''Rubens Barrichello'': Brazilian driver who holds the record for most races contested (326 races with 322 starts) with a career that spanned nineteen seasons, longer than any other driver. Notoriously known as Schumacher's former teammate, who was forced to concede a race win to him.

* ''[[The Mary Whitehouse Experience]]'' had a sketch trying to prove that elderly drivers are the most dangerous. Part of which was Ayrton Senna and Alain Prost being held up at the British GP by 'Granddad'. The constuctors championship being won by McLaren, with Ferrari second, and "Austin 1100" third.

* Jasper Carrott talked about fellow [[The Midlands|brummie]] Nigel Mansell on his show: "''Potentially'', he is the most exciting man on the Earth..." (beat) "...until he speaks". "He's got all those exciting endorsements on his tunic; Havoline, Texaco, Labatts...it's so ''incongruous'' isn't it?. It should be Horlicks, or Solihull Public Library" He even mentioned Nigel's Indycar switch: "[[Paul Newman]], and Nigel Mansell! Butch Cassidy and The Sanatogen Kid!"
