PDLR: There’s something missing there, but I don’t have a clue right now…
LPS: Yeah, I miss Marussia too.

“Maybe if we stand here looking sad, someone will make a new car for us”

(If someone can spot the relatively obscure Simpsons reference they get a special prize…*)

*That being the prize of nothing

Luis Perez-Sala: We’re really living the life
Pedro de la Rosa: Well I hope my life turns out better than Gary Brabham or Bruno Giacomellis’ did.

We may aswell make our car’s nose look good, it doesn’t seem to have much of chance against Marussia

You know, I’m sure its not too late to call ferrari and buy last year’s car. Forgot all this expensive r&d. Some big guy sits on the nose to lower it – job done! In fact, there’s a 5 year old focus for sale that will go quicker than our car, would past the crash tests, go for several races on same tank of fuel!

(almost) as seen in the movie The Fast and the Furious, after smoke came out of a cars’ hood at the end of the race: “It don’t matter if you lose by an inch or a mile… losing’s losing”
