I could probably have a go at that one. The first thing most people tell me when they see my blog is something along the lines of, "How much orange does a site need?!?"

Jos Verstappen's key to good qualifying.

To be fair, whenever he qualified in the top 15, he had a good chance of points.

It's funny that even though you mention this yourself, you can't be bothered to change your blog's colour scheme. I think it looks alright, by the way.

Because my other options with that blog software "How much red does a blog need?", "How much green does a blog need?" and "How much blue does a blog need?" and I find the other blog-producing software options inaccessible. If you want to know what I mean, the four colour blocks on the top-right corner of my blog allow you to play with the colour scheme.

As for why I mention it, practically everyone else seems to - it seems to be it's equivalent of the "It's bigger on the inside!" that invariably follows a new companion's first trip into the TARDIS...

Thank you for being kind about the decor, Waris.

Well duh... you're Dutch. Orange is your thing. {thehemogoblin - 5 posts ago}

I wonder if being a Force India supporter (and previously a Spyker supporter) had anything to do with my choice of colour scheme (even though all I was thinking when I changed the colour last time was that I was fed up with blue and green)? It's probably not my nationality, because I'm from the middle of England...

I would have liked to have a bit of a read during the race, but the only thing on my bookshelf was the Life F1 Guide To Winning Races, so i decided to go to sleep instead.

Thanks for the correction - this brief report if events that day is worth posting for Piquet's quote at the end:

Nigel Mansell had run away with the Canadian Grand Prix and was set to get his 1991 championship challenge under way.

Exactly what happened to his car at the Casino hairpin on the last lap has been disputed. The story at the time was that Mansell had knocked the engine kill switch while waving to the crowd. Mansell insisted the car stopped with transmission failure.

Nelson Piquet didn’t care either way, as he passed his hated former team mate to score what would be his final win. A grinning Piquet said afterwards that when he saw Mansell’s Williams stopped at the side of the track, “I almost came.”

Romain Grosjean (Roman Fat john) probably deserves a contribution too. Not exactly going to be the shortest book in F1, is it?
