The 'one move' rule clarified

[Knock-on]

Another problem is the way in which there is now a perceived need in all walks of life to always have a mechanism for apportioning blame.

You reminded me of an email I got. It was supposed to have been a speech given by Bill Gates to a School. It would have been superb if it really was

Rule 1 : Life is not fair - get used to it!

Rule 2 : The world doesn't care about your self-esteem.
The world will expect you to accomplish something
BEFORE you feel good about yourself.

Rule 3 : You will NOT make $60,000 a year right out of high school.
You won't be a vice-president with a car phone until you earn both.

Rule 4 : If you think your teacher is tough, wait till you get a boss

Rule 5 : Flipping burgers is not beneath your dignity.
Your Grandparents had a different word for burger flipping:
They called it opportunity.

Rule 6 : If you mess up, it's not your parents' fault,
so don't whine about your mistakes, learn from them.

Rule 7 : Before you were born, your parents weren't as boring
as they are now. They got that way from paying your bills,
cleaning your clothes and listening to you
talk about how cool you thought you were


So before you save the rain forest
from the parasites of your parent's generation,
try delousing the closet in your own room..

Rule 8 : Your school may have done away with winners and losers,
but life HAS NOT. In some schools, they have abolished failing grades
and they'll give you as MANY TIMES as you want to get the right answer.
*This doesn't bear the slightest resemblance to ANYTHING in real life.

Rule 9 : Life is not divided into semesters.
You don't get summers off and very few employers
are interested in helping you FIND YOURSELF.
*Do that on your own time.

Rule 10 : Television is NOT real life.
In real life people actually have to leave the coffee shop and go to jobs.

Rule 11 : Be nice to nerds.
Chances are you'll end up working for one..

And the F1 Circus moves on...

[Garry Walker]

Getting dumber by the day. If it was for the fact that I have watched F1 for so long and it has become an habit, I would'nt probably watch any of those crap artificial races anymore, it is beyond boring.

It's official

Article 20.3 of the F1 sporting regulations:

"More than one change of direction to defend a position is not permitted. "

"Any driver moving back towards the racing line, having earlier defended his position off‐line, should leave at least one car width between his own car and the edge of the track on the approach to the corner."

Looks another can of worms have been opened.

Aren't these the best racing drivers in the world? Do they really need yet another rule to tell them how they should or shouldn't race?

They really need to do away with this article. It's a load of rubbish. Not alone that but what is one car width exactly? If I leave exactly one car width then how can another car possibly fit there without hitting me?

Next thing you know they'll be putting lines on the track to identify the cars width. It has just gotten ridiculous now. Let the guys race for heaven's sake.

Michael got pretty close to the one car width with Rubens a while back , and people got pretty excited .
Mind you , it wasn't on the inside , into a corner .

But , it's pretty simple , really .

Exactly one car width would see the cars touch into the corner , so , obviously , it's meant to get more exposure for the advertising on the sidepods , as the camera shows the tire marks after a tight encounter .
I would suggest it be called the "interlocking" rule .

And , won't that be exciting , seeing cars flipped into the air into the high-speed corners ?


Perhaps it's just Bernie , lobbying the Swiss for a race in the Alps , in Interlochen , on Lake Geneva .
No . Wait .
It was my idea to call it "interlocking" .

But , I've been there , and it would make a stunning backdrop for a race .
Can you imagine cars flipping into the water at every corner ?
Wouldn't that be cool ?

We could award medals for the best splash .
No . Wait .

"We" ?
Did I just say "we" ?

Oh , man , I think this is some kind of Bernie mind control thing going on here .
