F1 Fanatic

i,ll start, heard yesterday

ted- “the rain might be brief”
mb “so might the trip to the barriers”

also dc kept mentioning this chap heidfield, was he doing this on purpose?

He even managed a “hug the apex like your favourite Granny” comment yesterday too…

Yeah I love that “hug the white line like it’s your favourite granny” line.

I can’t believe he managed to get this one in when Jerome D’Ambrosio stopped:

“It’s all turned to custard for D’Ambrosio”. Just quality broadcasting!

“It’s all gone to Custard for D’Ambrosio”

“There are some pikeys there at turn 10 putting tarmac down – what do you think of that?”

I think it was last year where Martin had a bet to use some kind of obscure word in his commentary and he kind of sort of mangled it in.

Also from last year, “Kobabashi” “Kowasabi”.

I knew there’d be a site dedicated to them:

Yeah Ral, think I heard about that bet too. I remember in Spa last year he said “He’s as sharp as a Kumquat fruit. I’m glad I managed to get that word in there somewhere.”

Rudderless Russian was epic for me, though I didn’t quite catch when he said it at first.

Oh, and looking at that website, this one too:

“There are four compounds [of tyre] through the year: hard, medium, soft and supersoft; that’s silver, white, yellow and red – not a very sensible progression. I think you’ve gotta think of it as knife, toast, butter and jam as they get softer through the progression of the rubber.”

Now there’s a sensible way of remembering all the tyre compounds!

i loved how he nearly said ‘face full of virgin’ last race (just stopped himself when he realised what he was about to say!)
