well it just goes to show what a bunch of overpaid  jessies they all are  :rolleyes:

a spot of water and they are all moaning like fcuk  :laugh:

i have seen BIKES run in worse conditions  :lipsrsealed:

Fags - the lot of them

A bit different Chuff, bikes have a very small footprint on the tarmac that can cut through standing water much better than 2 foot wide F1 tyres.

And by the same footprint when they slow down they wash out as they cannot carry much speed through corners.

Bikers do have significantly more brass though.

Ha ha loved how DC dissed the merc to the engineers on the grid and then Lee pointed out later on that he drives for them in DTWM and was that a good idea? :grin:
