rremde 0 Report post Posted September 18, 2007 Now that we're all thoroughly disgusted with F1/FIA politics, what about your favorite F1 laughs so far? So far, mine was on Speed TV in the US - I can't remember precisely which GP it was (I think it was Turkey), but Peter Windsor was doing his pre-race walk down the starting grid interviewing anyone he could get his hands on. He stops Bernie for a quick interview, which consists of Bernie's usual content-free commentary. As Windsor thanks him for his time, Bernie leans over to PW's ear and hisses, "That's Bo Derek, the actress, behind me. INTERVIEW HER!" (into the live mic), and then strides off swiftly and purposefully. Chagrined, Windsor dutifully interviewed Ms. Derek, and we spent the rest of the pre-race laughing hysterically, imagining the various nightmare "Bernie and the Fading American Actress Who Wouldn't Go Away" scenarios.

JonnyWeir 0 Report post Posted September 18, 2007 Lousie from ITV interviewing David Coulthard and Mark Webber at Bahrain. Mark: "David and I both had trouble getting into the car to start off with, and we've hardly got child bearing hips." Dave: "Unlike you, Louise. Yours are lovely." Louise: "Thankyou, David." Will the guy ever quit? What a character. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dave: "Well, he's much more gentle than I thought he'd be. He carreses the back of my hair. It's nice." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
