No idea what it's actually supposed to mean, but the commentators were suggesting "No woman, No cry."

Lewis's Bob Marley helmet: a few months ago, he was asked by the Marley family to sport the special design in India this weekend...

He's a big Bob Marley fan and was happy to follow their wishes. He'll also wear special commemorative helmets in Abu Dhabi and Brazil.

Along with Jenson, he was one of the drivers leading the tributes to Dan Wheldon and, this weekend, he wears a black armband of remembrance.

Feed is gone?

I like Webber's and Nando's tributes but Jarno's is my favourite.



It's to his now ex.

From BBC Live Feed - McLaren on Hamilton's choice of helmet:

What the hell is going on with Massa's wing?
Designed by Adrian Newey, but not for this Ferrari. That's what's wrong with it.

What's sad and desperate about it ?

One-race-advertising ? Anyone can buy a spot on the car for just one race.
Or the movie advertising ? So many teams have done it.

Jaguar: Ocean's Twelve
Toyota: Batman
Red Bull: Star Wars, Superman
Brawn: Terminator
Virgin: Cars 2
etc.

Usually there are also people from the movie at the race, or props.

Puts the team in the spotlight and they get money too.

I know that it has been done before, I'm watching F1 for a while now. I just hate it when it looks completely out of place. It looks like crap.

Giving a penalty is too much but I'm not at all surprised by it.
Hard but fair. They ignored double yellows that are used to indicate that a marshall is on track — that's a pretty serious infringement.

He really did.

Btw, here's the interview Jake did with him, before the Korean GP two weeks ago.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zodk94HxYJ0

"We need to be more aggressive, we need to be more creative with the car, not always follow all those ideas, we need to have our own direction of developing the car and philosophy of developing the car."

Now here's the chief designer.
Ferrari's chief designer Nikolas Tombazis concedes that his team will have to consider duplicating the innovations that have helped Red Bull sweep to the constructors' title three races before the end of the season. "You can't ignore your competitors: if Red Bull wins, you can't say 'I'll just mind my own business'," he said.

I don't think they'll be successful in 2012.
