This article "The Sid Watkins Scholarship 2016" originally found on Badger GP]]>
Set up by the FIA Institute, a not-for-profit organisation that develops and improves motor sport safety and sustainability, the scholarship is a fully funded position that will enable the successful applicant to conduct research and engineering projects with the Global Institute for Motor Sport Safety SA, the FIA Institute's research partner based in Switzerland.
The FIA as well as the FIA Foundation are part-funding the scheme, too, giving anyone who has recently completed – or are about to complete their studies in engineering or medicine – the perfect launch pad into the professional world.
It's certainly a better leg up than the one Watkins had to make do with. Shadowed by the Great Depression of the 1930s, Watkins worked at his dad's Merseyside garage, ahead of his graduation from the University of Liverpool as a Doctor of Medicine in 1956. His first foray trackside came at a kart event at Brand Hatch in 1961, prior to years of further study and medical assistance at racetracks across the UK. After a meeting with a certain Bernie Ecclestone in 1978, Watkins was made the Official F1 Doctor, and held his position for 27 years.
Sameer Patel, who won the inaugural scholarship last year, has since worked on a number of high profile projects, including safety developments in Formula One, World Rally and Formula E. He was recently rewarded for his hard work with an extension to his contract.
Patel said: "This scholarship has been an incredible opportunity for me to work at the highest levels of motor sport and to contribute to one of its most important areas, safety. I would recommend it to any engineering graduate with a passion for motor sport."
FIA Institute President Professor Gérard Saillant added: "The first year of the Watkins Scholarship has been a great success and we are delighted to open the process again this year. We hope the successful candidate will help to continue the important work of Professor Watkins in the field of motor sport safety.
the scholarship is a fully funded position that will enable the successful applicant to conduct research and engineering projects with the Global Institute for Motor Sport Safety SA, the FIA Institute's research partner based in Switzerland.
It's impossible to state just how many lives and careers Watkins helped save, but it goes without saying that Formula 1 would have been, would be, and will be a poorer place without his contribution to safety. Building on that is this scholarship – a golden opportunity to continue the Prof's tireless work.

This article "Getting the Brawn GP Car Back on Track" originally found on Badger GP]]>
The buzz ahead of the Goodwood Festival of Speed this year has been the return to running of the iconic 2009 championship winning car – the 2.4 litre, V8 Brawn GP BGP001. The 002 chassis that Jenson drove, owned by Ross Brawn, and stored safely away in his garage up until very recently, has been brought back to life by D3 Racing Solutions, along with a little help from some old friends. In the second of her pieces from the event, Sarah Merritt caught up with Frazer Deane of D3 Racing, the man who Ross entrusted with the task of breathing life back into this beautiful car for Goodwood.
Frazer, it's great to be able to grab some of your time here at Goodwood as I know you are very busy with the car. Can you tell us how it was you came to be involved in this project?
"My cousin, Matt (Deane), is chief mechanic at Mercedes AMG Petronas Formula 1 team, and once people at Mercedes heard that Ross wanted to run the car, my name was put forward. I was invited over to Ross's house and he took me to see his private collection, and it was then that I first saw the car, sitting in the corner, under a cover, and it all started from there.
I'm a very particular person, and I like everything has to be done correctly, so for me to be involved, I really wanted the best people on the project too. I know so many people, on all sides of Formula 1, engineering, design, so I was able to talk to some – I approached Nathan (Divey, Lewis Hamilton's number 1 mechanic, who had previously worked at Honda, and then Brawn as number 1 for Rubens Barichello) and said "do you want to come and help me run the Brawn?", and he said "of course I do!" A few other people came out of the woodwork too, and were keen to get on board – obviously if it wasn't for that car, and Ross, the factory could have been closed, and I think that's part of the reason that people couldn't do enough for me and this project. I had people coming to help in the evenings, suggesting things or saying "don't do it like that, do it like this", so we'd got a good group together.
We had to get Mercedes HPP involved as well for the engine side of things, so we had two engineers come over to my workshop and we fired it up – it hadn't been fired up for four years, and to do that is a massive task. (Click here to see a video of this) You have to bleed all the system, you have to fill up with oil, as obviously the car had been drained of all liquids bar water as oil would eat into the components…then we put all the pre-heaters on it. It takes about two and a half hours to start one of those cars. She took a while to fire up as you have to get all the pressures right in the water system, but once you have those pressures, you're away. So we fired it up and…well, that was just amazing, to have the Brawn fired up in my little workshop….I never thought I'd be running a championship winning F1 car in there."
I bet! So what sort of things would you normally have in your workshop, Frazer?
"I build and restore racing cars and I run them. D3 do a lot of design and manufacturing work too. I've recently done some work for Haas F1 including drop down screens in the garage, and a lot of work on the pit stop gantry too. I've made tyre trollies for Mercedes, done a little bit for Manor. People come to D3, and if they want something designing and manufacturing, I can do the whole lot for them. They'll ring us up and say "can you solve this?" and I will know someone who can do it, I'll bring those people on board, and that's the way it works."
Earlier in the year, I was chatting to Dickie Stanford about Williams Heritage cars, and he was explaining how if he need a part, that often has to be manufactured from scratch for their use. I was wondering how that would work for you on this project? I know the car isn't as old as some of the heritage ones, but it isn't current, so does that present you with problems? I take it you could be supplied information/schematics from Mercedes?
"Yes, we were able to get information from Mercedes, and absolutely, there's not much in the way of parts. There's no wishbones, there's only two sets of wheels in existence, so these that we are using have actually come from the Brawn car that is under the wind tunnel at Mercedes, and that is currently on stands. We've got the spare tyres, and we have to give those back unfortunately. We even had to make the wheel nut sockets to take the wheels off, as we hadn't got anything at all – not even jacks! Ross was given the car with 4 wheels on, and the nuts done up hand tight, and that was it. However the car was built to a very high spec – in theory if you fuelled it, it could do effectively do a grand prix, it has all of the telemetry sensors, which a lot of show cars wouldn't have. Regarding spares, if something breaks, we'd have to get moulds made, and re-manufacture it."
Which must be an expensive process? I know when I've bought car parts from factory tours, as fans we have paid a nominal amount for a bargeboard or an exhaust, but that doesn't take into account the man hours of design and manufacture, or the type of materials that might have been used.
"During racing, they are "lifed", and that would have been the case with the wishbones on the car now, but obviously there aren't any more of them. You can't just decide to have a wishbone manufactured in two weeks, it's a massive process, so I've had the carbon fibre wishbones, and everything that is "NDT"-ed (NDT refers to non-destructive testing) checked over. We have ultrasound scanned the wishbones and luckily there's no cracks, as I'd hoped. There are things you can do to them, you can re-wrap them, it depends what part they are. The only thing that worried me when I went to pick the car up, was how it had been lifted around for three years – I didn't know, had it been to a show, how had it been pulled around – because you can't just lift them up on the wishbones. We also had all of the wheels crack tested, because it's alright having two sets of wheels, but if one was cracked, we'd have to use the other set, which means we hadn't got two sets for the weekend, that would make it impossible to run the car.
"I just went through it all, I found a slight problem with the clutch, the bearing on it had gone, so that was sourced and fitted. Even fitting the clutch on one of those cars, it's just epic, you wouldn't believe what goes into it. On a road car, you've got a foot clutch, and you've got a hydraulic piston on the end of it, but of course on a Formula 1 car, there's no clutch, it's all hydraulic, so you have to get a big hydraulic rig to pressurise everything, and bled the air out of the clutch end. It's a huge task, and I had to get someone involved to do that. I'm not a person to say I can do everything, I am always learning, and my old man always told me to listen to what people have to say. So I rang up a friend at Mercedes and told them my issue, and they helped to sort this out and come and do it. The key to all teamwork is to get the right people involved, and it's a massive project for me to run the car, I've had sleepless nights! I can relax today now that we've successfully done a run!"
Would it please you to know that when I spoke to Ross, he was hoping that there would be more opportunities to run the car in the future?
"It would be great to see it kept running. One of the things that I was concerned about at first was knowing that the car would be insured whilst in my workshop – I thought to myself, how do you put a value on this championship winning car? I spoke to Ross, and he clarified that it was covered under his insurance, as otherwise that might have put a stop to the project from the start."
And if Jenson was to pop by the garage and fancy a drive?
"Unfortunately he wouldn't fit in it, I think he's taller than Martin, so it's got some shorter pedals."
So Frazer, what is your next big project after this?
"Do you know, I haven't got anything immediately – this has eaten up all of my time. The car has been in the workshop for two months, and in that time I have got married and not been on my honeymoon yet, so that's the next thing!"
It was a privilege to chat to Fraser and his team, and of course to get so close to the BGP001 and see it running, restored to its Brazil 2009 livery from the day that Jenson won the title and we all recall him singing "We are the champions" over the radio. I also loved the fact that the team working on the car were authentically attired in Brawn GP team kit that had been made for the occasion! Lets hope we get to see it out on track soon, and perhaps the champ might get a chance to reacquaint himself with an old but very faithful friend.

This article "Brawn and Brundle: A Catch-up at the Goodwood Festival of Speed." originally found on Badger GP]]>
The 002 chassis, owned by Ross Brawn, and stored safely away in his garage up until very recently, has been brought back to life by D3 Racing Solutions. In the first of her pieces from the event, Sarah Merritt was lucky enough to catch up together with both Ross, and Martin Brundle, who was Ross's choice to have the privilege of driving this beautiful car up the hill for the assembled fans to witness, and chat to them about them about this amongst a few other things.
Sarah Merritt: Starting with you Martin, we rely on your commentary to guide us through the F1 weekend, and I know throughout your career, you've partnered with quite a few people. I wondered, who you'd say was your favourite that you've worked alongside?
Martin Brundle: I'd have to say Murray Walker, because he was my first commentary partner and he taught me so much. I always say it's a bit like have Pele to teach you how to kick a ball, in that he is the maestro. I don't know how many years I had with Murray, but it was a great experience. I have enjoyed every co-commentator that I've been with – I had a year with DC that I really enjoyed – but it would have to be Murray, bless him!
SM: On a subject that you both may have experienced – I was wondering how hard it is when there's something that you are frustrated with, and you have to keep that inside. Martin, you are always very sage and balanced in your commentary, and I guess there are some things that you cannot just express an opinion on that you might want to?
MB: If I have a strong opinion on something then it is coming out. I believe I've earned the right to that after 31 years of being in F1. Actually, the biggest problem was back in the day, when over dinner, Ross might have told me something that was between us!
What is really annoying about that is that somebody will tell you a secret, and it will be a big one, and then you read it somewhere else – that never happened with me and Ross, I have to say. Being discreet, 20 or 30 percent of what I know, I can't repeat, but if I have an opinion, then it is coming out, and Twitter is quite an amusing platform because people will soon let you know whether they agree with you or not.
SM: Now I know you aren't on Twitter, Ross, but recently we've seen Damon Hill join the social media platform, and I think he has certainly experienced that recently a few times. It's interesting to see how social media and F1 as a subject are working together now.
Ross Brawn: Well Formula 1 and motor racing changed dramatically with social media, and changed with the internet. The old days where you waited until a Thursday when Autosport came out to see what was going on have changed dramatically. Everything is instant now.
In my roles in the various teams, I had to bear that in mind, that something you say will be out on the internet half an hour or less later. Also, in my role, I had different responsibilities. I had sponsors involved, and whatever you thought about a driver's performance, you couldn't say that, quite frankly! If you were critical of the driver, you had to keep that quiet, because you were always concerned about the team.
In Martin's role, he can state opinions and be open and honest about what he thinks is going on. In my role, it was always to try and give as much information as I could without compromising the team or the sponsors, and that was frustrating at times because you want to be open and say things, and share that with the public, but that won't do you any good with the team. You have to keep that criticism private within the team itself."
SM: But in your current "role", Ross, you could say whatever you want..
RB: You're right, I could….but people might start saying what they thought about me as well!
SM: Martin, a question about F1 versus endurance racing; I know you've driven both, and we often hear talk of F1 drivers heading in that direction when they "retire" from F1. How different are the skills that you need?
MB: I think the two coexist very nicely together, but do not underestimate endurance racing – that's why some drivers that go and do it don't get on with it. It's incredibly tough. Funnily enough, that's where I met Ross, in the Jaguar Sportscar team.
Both Formula 1 and endurance racing are massively challenging at the highest level. If you actually look at the logistics of a 24 hour race with 30 scheduled pit stops, and the crew you need – I remember at Jaguar, we had 5 cars, 15 drivers, 135 crew at the track – it's a massive undertaking.
If you go with the right mind-set as a single-seater driver, and you are prepared to work with your teammates instead of trying to beat them at every opportunity, if the team can trust you with the car, and you can do a quadruple stint and bring the car back pristine, and then handle oil, gravel, rain, debris, back markers…all of that is an immense challenge.
But then of course, so is driving a Formula 1 car at the highest level. It's more of an individual sport, so more challenging in that respect, but I have the upmost respect for the champions in both disciplines.
SM: And it was so cruel to see the number 5 Toyota stop on track at Le Mans just minutes from the end…
MB: I hated to see that for the team, for the drivers. It was so unfair. Motorsport can be very cruel. I've broken down on the last lap in a Benetton, and lost a podium in a McLaren, lost a victory in Canada because my differential broke. They broke my heart, but that broke the heart of a whole team, probably a nation back in Japan, and a lot of fans alongside at the circuit – that was your worst nightmare.
SM: Now the reason that we are all here together at the Goodwood Festival of Speed today, is because of the beautiful Brawn GP BGP001, that you own, Ross, and Martin will be driving. How did this all come about?
RB: The car has been mine for a number of years. I have it stored, and when I went into the storage units where it was kept, I just kept looking at it thinking we really ought to take that out. The tragedy of modern Formula 1 cars is that you need half a dozen, maybe eight, people to run the thing, so it's quite an exercise to take the thing out, but it had been sat in that garage far too long.
We had to organise quite a group, and D3 Racing Solutions have been doing the preparations and running that. I have some good guys – some of the guys from the team have come along, who know the car, so it's in good hands, and unfortunately with the traffic this morning [we are talking on Saturday lunchtime], I missed the first run, but I shall be there watching this afternoon.
SM: I watched Martin go out this morning and listened to them fire up, it just sounds beautiful!
RB: "Yes and it's just so frustrating that it has limited usage, and that you need a small army to run these things.
SM: And will you keep the BGP 001 running now?
RB: I hope so, yes – it needs a fairly serious event to be honest, because of all the preparation and support needed, so it won't be out every weekend, but I hope to take it out more often.
SM: And this is the 002 chassis that is running, Jenson's actual championship winning car?
RB: Yes, that's right, the 002, the pukka championship winner. Jenson got the spare car and I got the proper one!
SM: And do you think he'll be passing by to have a look at it tomorrow?
RB: I hope so, yes, I hope we can see him with the car.
SM: Do you think he might fancy a go and try and jump in for one of your runs, Martin?
MB: He's most welcome! It's just a great privilege to drive the car. I've known Ross a long time, and I think it's a great responsibility as well as obviously it's pristine, it has zero spares of any description…
RB: That's exactly how we raced it!
MB: …so it's not a car for wheel spins and doughnuts, it's a car to show the race fans. It just reminds you when you are trying to three-point turn these at either end of the hill, that they're so NOT designed to do this; as in, go up a muddy hill in a queue.
I said to the guys on the radio that it's like keeping a patient alive on an operating table – it's too hot, it's too cold, the pneumatic pressure, the oil pressure, the battery, the hydraulics – they basically nurse it, because they are used to firing it up and going and driving it flat out. You can't shift without being full throttle, which is interesting, so I'm toodling around, and I suddenly find I'm doing 110MPH out here, thinking I was doing 50!
SM: I think Ross should let you have a track day, and film it for Sky F1, that would seem the best way to handle that! [Ross smiles]
MB: Yeah, we can do that – that's a deal. Thanks for organising that!
It was really great to sit down with Martin and Ross, and I could have honestly chatted to them all afternoon, given the opportunity, on all manner of subjects.
Martin and Ross also filmed an interview for Sky Sports F1 from the garage, so keep an eye out for that on their Goodwood Festival of Speed coverage.
Later in the weekend I was in the F1 group holding pen as they all got ready for their run up the famous hill. Jenson was driving the McLaren MP4/2, which was parked up alongside the BGP001, and took the opportunity to cast his eye over the Brawn, with Martin already sat in it. "Get out of my car!" he joked, laughing with Martin, and said it was looking good, before shaking hands with the team members, many of whom were with him during the time he drove it. Great to witness the champ alongside his faithful 2009 steed – let's hope an opportunity comes along soon for us to see him behind the wheel of the BGP001 again.

This article "Callum Ilott takes on the Norisring" originally found on Badger GP]]>
Not only is he giving you unique insight into a young drivers career via his excellent articles on Badger GP, but Badger GP is now on his car too. We provided some super lightweight racing-spec Badger logos and they're now on the car and looking great.
The weekend started brilliantly for our Callum, qualifying P2, P1 and P1 for the 3 races, although due to engine change penalties he'll start P12, P11, P11. Good news is that the Norisring track promotes over taking and Callum is a superstar talent and we should see him rise through the field. A podium or three isn't completely out of the question.
Race 1 – Promising, but ended with disappointment. Starting well down in P12 didn't put Callum off, by the end of the first lap he was already P9 and his rise through the field continued right up to P3. Unfortunately, at half distance with the top 3 running nose to tail, he went for a gap (that did exist) to take P2, but lost the back end, colliding with Joel Eriksson (was running P1), taking him out with him and gifting Lance Stroll (Williams F1 Jr driver) the lead, who then went on to claim victory. A rare frustrating error from Callum in race 1, but his early pace looks promising for Race 2 and 3, watch this space.
Race 2 – Going backwards before the start. The engine change penalty was added to with an additional penalty for the incident in race 1, leaving Callum down in P15 for the grid. Once again he fought a tough race, giving him P7 overall. Kept it clean, pulled off some great moves and capitalised on other drivers less great moves. A solid performance.
Race 3 – Another solid drive for points. Starting down in P10 was never going to be easy, but again Ilott showed off his talent and brought the car home in P7 and some much needed points.
Overall it was a disappointing weekend – qualifying P2, P1 and P1 for the 3 races could have easily led to 3 podiums, if not 3 victories. As he showed in race 1, he had the pace to take it to the rest of the field. But this is motorsport and the draconian penalties for engine changes coupled with some bad luck and an unfortunate mistake made it a tricky weekend.
There's plenty to look forward to though. Testing next week before heading to Zandvoort for the next round of the championship where he's still in the top 3 and ready to fight back.

This article "New Friends! McLaren and Michael Kors" originally found on Badger GP]]>
After the announcement at McLaren's ridiculously beautiful London showroom (1 Hyde Park, you should go visit!) with main man Ron Dennis delivering the news, media, team personnel and Jenson Button headed over of Regent Street for some celebratory drinks. Badger's Sarah Merritt was in attendance.
Not one for idle gossip, but it's also worth noting that Jenson had his new lady in tow, Brittny Ward. Expect articles in the Daily Mail about that, probably some crappy pap shots too.
Does this mean that next time there's a spat in Formula 1, McLaren really can get their handbags out? Maybe.
New Jacket! To celebrate the launch of the partnership, Michael Kors has created a limited-edition men's leather jacket. The 50 specially produced black leather jackets will be sold exclusively on the men's floor of the new Michael Kors London flagship store, while supplies last. The jackets feature both the Michael Kors and McLaren logos, as well as a limited-edition plaque with each piece's unique production number.
"Like McLaren, which has raced in Formula 1 all over the world for the past 50 years, Michael Kors is also a truly international company, operating stylish and successful stores in some of the most prestigious cities in the world, including New York, Beverly Hills, Chicago, London, Milan, Paris, Munich, Istanbul, Dubai, Seoul, Tokyo and Hong Kong.
"McLaren and Michael Kors encompass a common dynamism and adventurism"
"Moreover, I firmly believe that the corporate cultures of both McLaren and Michael Kors encompass a common dynamism and adventurism, as well as a shared commitment to a similarly relentless pursuit of perfection, and as such the two brands are extremely well suited to a long-term partnership. That brand fit is very important to both of us: both companies have built their reputations on being the very best at what they do, and, as we now march forward together, we'll both become stronger still."

HAMmer and tongs; sometimes it goes wrong
After four early wins for Nico Rosberg, Lewis Hamilton clawed back some ground in the Drivers' Championship with a brace of wins in Monaco and Canada.
It looked like this form would carry over into the Baku race, with Hamilton smashing everyone in all three practice sessions. However, for whatever reason, he just couldn't get into a rhythm on Saturday afternoon, and almost didn't make the cut for the end of Q2 when he had a huge lock-up with just a couple of minutes to go.
He got a lap in, but in the twilight of the third and final part of Qualifying, hit the inside wall as he crested the tight turn 8-9-10 section. With a decidedly wonky front end (Ooh er missus) the reigning Champ' could do nothing more, and the session was red-flagged, resuming for just one last dash to the line…
Yes, with the session resumed, the remaining nine runners exited the pits as quickly as they could. Valtteri Bottas was in no mood to be patient, and tried to race Max Verstappen for track position, but the Finn's eagerness to get ahead ultimately cost him dearly, and he backed out of the lap.
The remaining eight drivers carried on; most did not improve, save for Sebastian Vettel, who notched a time of 1:43.966 – exactly the same lap time as ex-team mate Daniel Ricciardo.
That wasn't the only surprise in the session; further down the order, both Manor cars predictably dropped out in Q1, but they were the top two to take the fall, finishing ahead of Jenson Button, Marcus Ericsson, and both Renault drivers.
Then of course, there was the chap who qualified second…
Power Serg'
It seems like every time we talk about F1's top Mexican (forgive me, Esteban) we're heaping him with praise, and this is no exception. He earned the official F1 Driver of the day award, and the far more prestigious Badger GP TOP DOG, which we're fairly sure was the foundation for that vote in the first place.
Checo's Qualifying position may have been slightly fortuitous, given that several drivers were improving when the red flag came out, but it's a testament to his driving and indeed the team's low-downfroce philosophy that he put the car on the front row of the grid – especially when you consider his untimely crash at the very end of FP3 which necessitated a new gearbox and a grid penalty.
In the race, Checo kept touch with Kimi Raikkonen during the final part of the race, and even though the Iceman had a penalty anyway and would drop back in the final results, Perez got the move done on-track, a feat he understandably described as more satisfying.
80% of Force India's podiums have been thanks to Perez now, and for the first time ever, the team have snatched two podiums in the same season. With silly season never far away, we could see a lot of top teams aim to poach Perez once more, but if Force India maintain their recent pace, he may not even want to leave.
Radio Gaga
The confounding radio restrictions brought in last year, then strengthened at last year's Belgian Grand Prix, prevent race engineers and team members from 'over-coaching' drivers. In a nutshell, they can't be told where on the track they're losing time, and to whom that time loss is relative.
It also prevents technical coaching, such as telling the driver how to map fuel and when to run in full power, unless it's an emergency that will break the car.
Two men who were clearly very agitated by this rule in Baku were Hamilton and Kimi Raikkonen; the former complaining about looking at his "frickin' dash all the time", and the latter saying a lot of other words that begin with the letter F.
It's a situation that asks a lot of questions really – where does coaching stop and genuinely useful advice begin? Hamilton said it felt like he was running without ERS for some parts of the race, but when he said he would flick everything off and on again (IT Crowd style), race engineer Peter Bonnington was only allowed to say "We don't advise that". It led to a huge outcry from Hamilton after the race, labelling the rules a joke, a sentiment that basically every driver agreed with.
Kimi too was frustrated with the lack of info he was allowed to be told, saying "Surely if I suggest things you guys can say yes or no?" but no dice.
Since the radio restrictions came into effect, a small part of entertainment value has been lost. It was all part and parcel of the racing experience, and with F1 constantly trying to 'improve the show', this is surely a huge oversight.
The need for speed
Williams yet again proved their amazing pit stop choreography in Baku, with the team servicing Felipe Massa in 1.92 seconds during the race. That equals the record set by Red Bull in the USA in 2013, when Mark Webber's four tyres were also whipped off and new ones put on in the same time.
Even more impressive, though, was the breaking of a much more amazing record. It's unofficial as yet, but Valtteri Bottas reached a speed of 234.9MPH/378KPH during Qualifying.
That beats the existing record (set by Juan Pablo Montoya in 2005) of 231.5MPH/372.6KPH recorded at Monza, eleven years and four extra cylinders ago. It goes to show the insane rate of development the current hybrid V6 engines have already gone through. Lap records are beginning to fall, such as when the lap record in Bahrain was smashed earlier this year, the first time the new power units had done so.
Now, it seems the hybrid F1 cars are only getting faster, and if aerodynamics are reduced for 2017 (please) you can expect them to get even faster. With this unofficial record, Bottas really does claim the mantle of Flying Finn.

From the moment he trundled down the pit lane in FP1 on Friday, Perez looked like a podium threat. He would finished the inaugural session on Baku's streets in a rather prophetic third place. Only the two Mercedes cars were ahead of him. Given the budget Force India have to work with it was some seriously im-perez-ive stuff.
Unfortunately for Checo he almost threw away all the hard work during Saturday's third practice session. A kiss with a fist from the concrete wall left the car in need of a new gearbox. A five-place penalty would leave Perez on the back foot heading into an all important qualifying session.
A few years ago perhaps Perez would have let his error overshadow the rest of his weekend. Not anymore. A wonderfully mature and gutsy lap in Q3 put Perez in provisional pole. A slightly delayed red flag for Lewis Hamilton's bump with the wall gave Nico Rosberg the chance to snatch pole away with seconds to spare.
As it was Perez would of course fall to seventh thanks to the penalty but the speed was there and everyone but Mercedes, who seemed untouchable, knew he'd be a threat on race day.
A great start saw Perez immediately jump ahead of Felipe Massa and Daniil Kvyat. Terrible tyre life from the Red Bull of Ricciardo soon saw Perez slip up to fourth in pursuit of the Ferrari duo. Continuing his reputation as Formula One's 'tyre whisperer', Perez sauntered up to the back of Kimi Raikkonen by lap twenty-eight.
Perez even had the luxury of knowing Raikkonen was due to be penalised by five seconds upon the conclusion of the race for a pit-lane entry infringement. Third place was his as long as the gap to the Ferrari remained under those five seconds. As it was Raikkonen ended up letting the Force India breeze by on the final tour, Checo would get his glory on the road.
It is well-deserved for the team because they have done an amazing job. All my boys fixed the car from yesterday, so very pleased. It's only the eighth race and we've done two podiums already. It's been an incredible year so far.
The result meant Perez has now scored two podiums in three races. Of Force India's five Formula One podiums he has scored four. Team-mate Hulkenberg has yet to grab his maiden podium. Today also saw Perez match fellow Mexican Pedro Rodríguez's record of seven podiums.
It just further underlines that Perez is perhaps the most underrated driver currently on the grid and deserves another shot in a top team. For it would be such a shame if that awkward year at McLaren were to spoil a very promising future indeed.

This really isn't the right place to post this topic.
But anyways, in this day and age, the best you're gonna get are the three S.A.V.E. collections that FUNimation put out. You can find them here:
It is not available on bluray, neither here, nor in Japan. The only Initial D related thing you'll find on bluray is the live-action film from Tai Seng, but it is now out of print.
And don't get your hopes up for Stage 5 coming to the U.S. The original show sold pretty bad for FUNi, and I doubt they'd be interested in bringing over the next season just for it to flop as well.

I think the best version to buy is the one that you want/the one that suits your budget the best. I thoroughly enjoyed the first season of this in 2007 with this set from Funi Initial D: First Stage - The Complete First Season. I've since picked up their various S.A.V.E. editions from TRSI (Funi's older all paper/flimsy cardboard case releases suck).
I don't think it's a show that even warrants a blu-ray release seeing how butt ugly it is with the CGI and all. Dvd is more than fine. Just my two cents.
As for the availability of the show in the Region A blu-ray format, yes that option is there. BUT it is an expensive one (as in 600+ US Dollars expensive if you buy both of 'em). For 2014 in Japan, Two BLU-RAY Box Sets will be released:
頭文字[イニシャル]D COMPLETE BD-BOX Vol.1 (Blu-ray) <-- Includes 1st Stage (26 eps) & 2nd Stage (13 eps)
頭文字[イニシャル]D COMPLETE BD-BOX Vol.2 (Blu-ray) <-- Includes 3rd Stage (The Movie), 4th Stage (24 eps) Extra Stage (4 eps) and more...
^NOTE - I don't see anything in those product descriptions that indicates that there is an English dub or Subtitle option included.^
As for what else that's already available in Region 1/North America you can find it here at:
The Anime News Network Initial D (TV) Encyclopedia Page. <---There are additional links to sites that have the show for sale. Good luck!

What's happened to the NBA?
The NBA has really gone downhill in the last couple of years. I was just about ready to get back into the NBA after about a 3 year break, but now everything has changed! Where is Carmelo Anthony? or Dwight Howard? or LeBron James? Heck, Roy Hibbert was only 25 last time I watched an NBA game, he should be tearing up the league right now! Instead I'm left with these new (and by the way terrible) players. I mean, when did the teams get so bad? I don't even remember half these teams from when I watched the NBA. Do not bother downloading an app that allows you to watch this crapfest

The floating future of the Maldives: Complete with £320m golf course and luxury 'workers island'
- Floating islands will be moored to the seabed using cables to minimise environmental impact
- Golf course will be accessed by a tunnel on the seabed, and have an underwater clubhouse for golfers to relax in after their game
- 43 private islands complete with their own beaches and yacht moorings
- Islands will be be built in India or the Middle east and towed to the Maldives
For golfers who struggle to avoid the water hazards, it could be a challenging course.
The Maldives has revealed plans for a radical £320m floating course, which players access by an undersea tunnel.
The course is part of a massive plan to replace the sinking islands with a network of man made, floating islands.
With an average elevation of just five feet above sea level the Maldives, with its 1,192 islands in the Indian Ocean, is the lowest country in the world.
The floating golf course that could soon form the centerpiece of the Maldives, replacing its islands as they sink below the surface of the sea
Amid fears many of the islands will soon sink into the sea, the Maldivian government has started a joint venture with the architectural firm Dutch Docklands International to build the world's largest series of artificial floating-islands.
The Dutch firm has already built floating islands for prisons and housing from slabs of concrete and polystyrene foam.
The hotel and conference centre, which resemble a starfish from above, will be built within circular reefs to allow visitors to dive right from the beach
In the Maldives, the floating islands will be anchored to the seabed using cables
or telescopic mooring piles, making landforms that are stable even in
The architects chose this approach to minimise damage to the seabed, and also chose to build lots of small islands to reduce the shadow on the seabed, which could affect wildlife.
The islands will be constructed in India or the Middle east to reduce costs, then simply towed to their final destination in the Maldives.
The real thing: The Huvafen Fushi resort in Maldives, which researchers say could soon be under water, along with the rest of the Maldives.
The islands will also be designed for swimmers, divers and even private submarines to enter them from below, and the Dutch firm designing the scheme has said visitors will be able to rent private submarines that can surface right in the middle of their living rooms.
Watch out for the water hazards: The plans include an 18 hole golf course designed by Troon, complete with clubhouse
The idea is the brainchild of Dutch firm Waterstudio who designed the project.
It is being engineered by floating architecture specialists Dutch Docklands.
CEO Paul van de Camp said: 'We told the president of the Maldives we can transform you from climate refugees to climate innovators.
'And we have a way of building and sustaining this project that is environmentally friendly too.
'This is going to be an exclusively green development in a marine-protected area.'
The first part of the project to be built will be the golf course.
'This will be the first and only floating golf course in the world - and it comes complete with spectacular ocean views on every hole,' said van de Camp.
'And then there's the clubhouse.
'You get in an elevator and go underwater to get to it.
'It's like being Captain Nemo down there.'
Players will access the floating course via a series of underwater tunnels so wide they can even accommodate a golf buggy
Designer Koen Olthuis said: 'We'll be building the islands somewhere else, probably in the Middle East or in India - that way there's no environmental cost to the Maldives.
'When it comes to the golf course, the islands will be floated into position first and then the grass will be seeded and the trees planted afterwards.'
Development on the course is expected to begin later
this year, and it should be ready for play by the end of 2013 ahead of
the full launch in 2015.
The course will be split over different floating islands, while private cabins will also be located on some of the islands
The proposed site is just a five-minute speedboat ride from the capital of Male, giving golfers the chance to make quick journeys to the mainland.
Amazingly, the course will even
be powered by solar energy which is a resource the Maldives has plenty
of - as it's located just north of the equator.
The designers claim the entire resort will be carbon neutral.
43 private floating islands will be built, complete with a jetty to moor your yacht and a pool.
The ambitious plans will also feature 43 private islands.
Called Amillarah (the Maldivian word for Private Island).
This unique project exists of 43 floating private Islands in a archipelago configuration.
Each has its own jetty for yachts, along with a pool. Palm trees give each mini island its own secluded area.
Even the low cost 'affordable' housing has a luxury feel, complete with waterside jettys.
The 'workers islands' will be in their own area of the Maldives, allowing workers to commute by boat to other areas
The sea views of the Maldives most popular resorts are set to be kept - but on a floating island instead of a real one
Coral Atoll near Maldives Island. Researchers say it could soon be under water, so plans for a series of floating islands are being drawn up.

E-commerce and the drinks industry: Pick your partners carefully, then worry about the profit
Modern day alchemy is very simple. Add the suffix '.com' to any business title or catchy phrase, and millions of dollars will be conjured up from the depths of the financial funding pool. Naturally, wine and spirits companies are eager to find out the real potential of notional value, which was probably why a recent seminar dedicated to e-commerce, organised by Harper's Trade Journals, at the LIWTF 2000, was so heavily oversubscribed. "E-commerce - will it make or break your company? Both," said virginwines.com's CEO, Rowan Gormley, based on the premise that the enormous, initial investment to launch any e-business will "put vast strains on the business".

The Conjuring doesn't open until Friday, but it's already scaring up a sequel.
New Line Cinema is reportedly at work on crafting a follow-up to director James Wan's new thriller about real-life paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren. Set in 1971, The Conjuring brings the Warrens to Rhode Island to help a family overcome disturbing happenings in their farmhouse. Watchmen star Patrick Wilson and Bates Motel lead Vera Farmiga play the Warrens, and would likely return for the sequel, as it's set to follow their further investigations.
Wan's continued involvement is less clear. The filmmaker is next set to direct The Fast and the Furious 7, making his schedule tricky to pin down. Brothers and writing partners Carey and Chad Hayes are returning for the sequel, however. Variety reports the Hayes siblings "interviewed Lorraine Warren extensively as part of developing the script."

Centre stage for Mils Muliana at Chiefs
Racing Fruean and Nanai-Williams to No.15EVAN PEGDEN
Relevant offers
Mils Muliaina might have left the Chiefs and New Zealand rugby as one of the best fullbacks those teams ever had, but he will return here next year as a centre.
As with most of the rest of the backs in the squad, the Chiefs will use his versatility, but it looks like Muliaina will vie with Robbie Fruean and Tim Nanai-Williams to start at centre.
And he may even be more of a back-up wing ahead of being a back-up fullback.
Chiefs head coach Dave Rennie said Muliaina, 33, now saw himself as a centre, comparing the move to former All Blacks captain Tana Umaga's shift in from the wing.
Samoa-born Muliaina has been playing in Japan for the NTT DoCoMo Red Hurricanes for the last two years, but when he departed the Chiefs at the end of the 2011 season he left as captain and veteran of 104 Super Rugby matches (for both the Blues and Chiefs) and with 100 All Blacks caps.
Most of those games were played at fullback, although he has played test rugby at centre and on the wing.
"Mils probably sees himself more as a centre now rather than a fullback, even though he is still playing quite a bit of fullback over there [in Japan]," Rennie said.
"He's played a fair bit at centre over there but is playing as much 15 as 13. I just think guys get older they want to move in - Tana was the same."
Rennie said the Chiefs also saw Muliaina as a strong wing option - and a player who brought a powerful kicking game and huge experience and leadership to the squad - but felt they already had fullback well covered by Robbie Robinson and Tom Marshall, with back-up from the likes of Gareth Anscombe, Andrew Horrell, Charlie Ngatai, Nanai-Williams and new wing recruit James Lowe, who has played fullback for Tasman.
"Versatility is the key," said Rennie of the many utility players in his squad. "If you look at last season with the injuries we had, we played guys in what a lot of people would assume was out of position.
"Gareth Anscombe at 15, Tim Nanai-Williams at 13 and so on, but it's just the nature of this competition.
"It's long and it's difficult, you're going to get injuries and you need that versatility so what we've got is a group of guys who can play multiple positions and we think that strengthens us.
"They've all got the ability to start so there will be a hell of a lot of competition and some tough decisions to be made."
Meanwhile, the Chiefs have cast their net wide to put together their five-man wider training group that will combine with the 32-man main squad to create a pool of 37 players to choose from during the season.
Livewire halfback Brad Weber, who was recruited after the start of the ITM Cup season by Waikato, obviously impressed sufficiently to grab one of the spots and, with only two halfbacks in the main squad, is bound to get playing opportunities.
Young midfield back Anton Lienert-Brown, who Waikato and the Chiefs recruited straight out of high school in Christchurch at the end of last year but missed the 2013 season due to injury, has also made the cut, as did young Bay of Plenty No 8 and captain Carl Axtens.
But the other two spots have gone to players outside the Chiefs region - Southland prop Nick Barrett and Tasman loose forward Tevita Koloamatangi.

Veto it!!!!!!! Spezza is a top 10 scorer. Kiprusoff is a top 5 goalie. Ohlund well a mid range defense. None of the other players are in the same category as Spezza and Kiprusoff not even close. Some one of higher return would have to be included

If there are only 8 teams in the league wouldn't a veto be over the top? There would be plenty of talent laying around...
nicssuperd-duperamazinglycoolbetterthanyouteamha! nicssuperd-duperamazinglycoolbetterthanyouteamha! Sep 18, 2008 1:02 AM Flag
there are 10
That trade doesn't sound fair to me. Kipper and Spezza are top-20 players.
Hey, if people are willing to make retarded trades, allow them to make retarded trades. If someone offered me the opportunity to get Spezza and Kipper for a Ding-Dong, two sticks, and a puckbag, I'd make the deal too.
Now, if it's some jackass trying to stack a team, then both managers should be kicked outta' the league and you ought to just redraft the league.
It's an unfair trade, VETO IT!
Kip and Spez are much better than any of the other players. It's better have talent consolidated then spread out.

New images apparently leaked by an Apple tester appear to show a near-final iPhone 6, complete in its retail packaging.
While extensive and detailed leaks preceding an Apple launch is certainly nothing new, the iPhone 6 reports — including that the phone will be revealed on September 9 and released on September 19 — have been incredible in their frequency and detail.
If legitimate, these latest images — provided to Tech Radar — would seem to confirm several of the new phone's rumoured features, including:
While the scuttlebutt was briefly that Apple's new phone would be covered entirely in near-unbreakable sapphire glass (a claim quickly diminished by analysts), a much older rumour had it that the iPhone 6 would feature an aluminium and glass look, much like the one sported in these images.
While the quality of these images makes a proper size a little tricky to deduce, the screen size relative to the unit's thickness and home button would seem to confirm the ever-present rumours of the iPhone 6 approaching or exceeding 5 inches. The rumours, first published in March, have it that Apple will release two versions of the new phone, one with a screen of 4.7 inches and one of 5.5 inches. The current iPhone 5S has a 4-inch screen.
Possibly facilitated by the overall larger dimensions, the iPhone 6 has been rumoured to be noticeably thinner than previous models while still improving on battery performance.
A report from Apple Insider suggests the smaller iPhone 6 will move a 15 per cent bump up in battery capacity over the iPhone 5S, while the larger 5.5-inch model will receive a 60 per cent bump. The battery for the larger phone would still be significantly smaller than that of the Samsung Galaxy S5 though, in an attempt to keep the iPhone 6 as slim as possible.
Tech Radar cautions that as the source of the images is not previously known to the publicaton, it is "not saying with 100% confidence" that the photos are authentic. However after putting them through testing to detect possible digital manipulation, it has "no reason" to believe they are fake.
One point of note that could work against the veracity of the images is the seeming lack of iOS 8. The new mobile operating system is set to launch alongside the new phones, yet the home screen shown on the retail packaging appears very similar if not identical to that of iOS 7, and announced apps like HomeKit and HealthKit are absent.
Further cause for skepticism are the raised volume buttons and visible bezel (the black border around the screen), both of which are inconsistent with previous reports.
Regardless of which rumours and reports turn out to be accurate, the one thing that appears to be certain is that this won't be the last iPhone 6 leak we see ahead of the expected September launch.

The Blancala Apartments overlook the Mediterranean and are approximately 300 metres from Santandria beach and 600 metres from Cala Blanca beach. Both beaches are clean and shelve gently into the sea making them perfect for families with small children.
