    Wow, it doesn't even have Michilen tires.
    Question: Does it build up a big lead while your stop light racing, only to piss it away at the end and then blame it on your passenger?

    I wouldn't worry too much about that, I didn't look at the pictures...

    At least there isn't the one of Alonso and Fisichella leaning on the car, pretending they even like each other. (Yet).

    If you should see a man walking down a crowded street talking aloud to himself, don't run in the opposite direction, but run towards him, because he's a poet. You have nothing to fear from the poet - but the truth.
