I wonder if the good folks at Audi ever considered renaming the etron when you realize that in French it means turd

/Just like Nova in Spanish which translates to not going.

Watching the F1 race today, and took a kick right in the nuts.

VW Arteon R Line wagon. I would do unnatural things to obtain one. They don't sell them in North America but offer 6 different SUVs.

• A team will remain shorthanded even if the opposing team score a goal. - Even if it's 5 on 3?

We need to get that clarified.

Another rule change I'd like to see is that if you do ice the puck while shorthanded, it's the same as a regular icing (face-off in your zone and you're not allowed to change players).

Oh FFS

Formula 1 to change building name to avoid 1 October shooter affiliation

The Las Vegas Grand Prix will look to stop using the word “paddock” to avoid affiliation with Stephen Paddock.

www.reviewjournal.com

The word for the part of the race venue where the team garages and offices are is a "paddock". The guy who shot up the concert in Vegas was named "Paddock". So they're calling it something different avoid any connection with a mass murderer. I guess they are lucky the guy's name wasn't "flag" or "turn".

Still bathing in Saudi money, though.

And we're coming down the back straightaway, the drivers will have to slow down as the approach the Bonesaw Chicane.

Massa legal team hopes for support from Hamilton in 2008 F1 title case

www.autosport.com

For those not as obsessed with F1 as me, Felippe Massa thought he had won the 2008 World driver's championship when he crossed the line in Brazil with Lewis Hamilton 1 place below where he needed to be to secure the championship. Timo Glock had failed to change tires to rain tires and was going super slow when Hamilton passed him in the last turn on the last lap to secure the needed position and championship.

A few weeks prior, Nelson Piquet Jr had crashed in the Singapore race and it was suspected he had done so to give an advantage to Fernando Alonso, his Renault teammate. Had the crash and subsequent yellow flag pit stops not happened, Massa would have likely won that race but due to the wreck and Ferrari being Ferrari he finished 12th. Had he won, he would have wrapped up the championship long before Hamilton passed Glock at Brazil. That offseason, it was determined that the crash was on purpose and Renault was punished.

For the last year or so, Felippe Massa has been trying to gain traction for a lawsuit to have him declared the winner in Singapore and thus the 2008 Driver;s champion. And today he is asking for Lewis Hamilton, the guy who won that year to join his in his quest.



Felippe Massa is not a smart man.
