Haven't seen it before. Not his finest moment, was it?

Are the marshals at the Malaysian GP local? I think they're flown in from other countries at some events, aren't they?

Chortle!

Love the way his mate rolls him out of the way!

Love the way the marshal on the front wheel just keeps rolling the wheel whilst checking the blokes OK

Obviously, the pictures do not lie. They all have strange, white off cuts around their back as well. Do you not read the news:

Thanks. Never been so busy on photoshop at this time of night. As long as no one mentions the fact that the Sunday Times couldn't possibly have run that story yet. I can't be ared to do a Victorian paper with the same picture and the headline, "Time travel proved to work: Flying cars will be here one day".

Ah its only the front end, weigh very little with a single seater (could prob pick that end up yourself)

Funny though

I think thats the best bit really. Dont worry chaps just roll it over him he wont mind.

Expected something more erm...sinister
Managed to get up fairly quickly, hardly a bruise to show for it

[anonymous-user]

At least he gets to say he's been run over by an F1 car. Could be useful small talk.

They are at some events on the calendar, not sure about Malysia though. One of my Technicians has been sent to Abu Dhabi as a scrutineer for the past few years, where he said nealry all of the Marshalls were from the UK.

Not any more, though - Abu Dhabi used UK marshals to to train locals & is now going it alone.

When we move ours we often just lift the front around as they have terrible lock.
