Why not give it to the person who can come up with the most unusual/amusing thing to do with it. They then have to provide photo evidence!

I'm lucky enough to own two copies! One orignal hardback and another version updated with lots of new pictures! Can't say I've found the motivation to read it yet...

I'm sure he did - but his dad was holding the top of the pencil.

the one i have is the updated hardback. its quite a thick tome but could be summarised in less than a page.

the thing is, a 'proper' biog with insight into the various formulae he's raced in, some racing anecdotes and stories of key battles during the season etc. - would be worth reading. but its a vodafone mclaren mercedes advert and nothing more.

not had one single PM! very telling.

Ok, Ill be the first to enter.

I would rip out each page and use them to make a huge papier mache (sp?) giant sized cock. (Can i say that and not get binned?)

I would then post it to the guys at Pistonheads to use as a trophy for some special "retard of the year" award at the BT&P.

How does that sound?
