His resemblance to Napoleon

His nationality

His penchant for cheating

His ability to pull Michelle Yeoh despite being a foot shorter than her

That's called 'doing a Bernie'

Look, here he is out for a walk with his normal sized spouse

the double antennae on his headsets, and he always had two stopwatches, operated on by chubby fingers always covered in plasters for some reason.

His Mel Brooks impersonation just isn't quite what it could be - Not prepared to put the hard hours in!



(oh and of course his attractive better half, large bank balance etc)

many reasons - dare not write anything on here as likely to get banned from PH & the UK's libel law is fairly strict.....

If Norberto Fontana is to be believed, implied threat that if he, and Herbert, did not hold up Villeneuve in the last race of the 1997, Sauber would lose the Ferrari engines. As it was, of course, things turned out rather differently.

Todt is very good at what he has done, the main argument from my point of view is that what he has done has not been good for the sport. Many other team managers have been in love with F1, Todt is in love with Todt.

My local authority hates him as well. It took out an injuction against models of him in a front garden near to me. They were him, of that there is no doubt. You only had to look at them. The pointy hat and the fishing rod was a poor disguise.

Funny that Max chose not to investigate this particular allegation of race fixing, isn't it? wink

Purely and simply because he is part of Mad Max's clan and therefore should be disposed of asap.

I have some gaffa tape and bin bags to get the ball rolling.
