Aha! My strategy is working perfectly! Write off SNAFU at your own risk!
Is there any prize for getting more minus points than the leader has positive? If not I better rethink my stealth strategy! |

Sorry, Anders. My apologies. Of course the FIA may have just decided to discount your points for a front wing that was 20 cm too narrow, wide, high, low,... we'll think of something.
Actually, I just didn't think to look that high in the standings, I figured we were all destined to perform like Snafu. |

Look out Anders, I'll catch up. I have the mighty J. Button!
Look forward to hammering you all again in Brazil. Anyone else going to Silverstone and fancy a meet? Seriously though, big lead after the top 2! |

You'll need more than one Button to keep that statement air-tight!

P.S. Is that position before or after Zonta moved up to 6th place? Can somebody who can add please tell me? |

Mr. McMANUS, the stewards apologise, for the first and only time, beware the black flag.

Kinder Surprise????
You know, one of the world's greatest confectionary treats. The egg with the toy in. Yum! (Plus the toy keeps me occupied for seconds, if not minutes....) |

The Kinder Egg...a harmless chocolate egg with a cute toy inside. And their advertise slogan (atleast here in Sweden) is 3 wishes in one, something exciting, something you can play with, and chocolate.
Well I have a funny story about the "Kinder Suprise". I read it in a newspaper a long time ago. About a kid buying a Kinder Egg and was real excited about the toy suprise inside. He was in for an suprise allright, a whole bunch of small flies flew out from the egg when he opened it! The company were terribly sorry and offered the kid a whole box of Kinder Eggs for his nasty experience! (oh no, no more flies!) |

When did Kinder Surprise become relevant to Fantasy F1?
Off topic slightly! |

Maybe it has something to do with Jensen Button. Give him five races and we will see.
UPDATE: I think I got 62 points today. But we will see. [This message has been edited by Liz (edited 26 March 2000).] |

I've dropped 2 places, I'm currently 229.
Thank you very much Hakkinen. Not really! I should have taken Jos the Boss. My other driver Zonta didn't help me very much either this time, but I'll keep him for a while because Liz thinks he's cute. Thank God the Jordans did well. See you in San Marino. |

Zonta is surpassingly gorgeous. But I have to confess I would have taken the slightly less gorgeous but totally acceptable Jarno Trulli if I could have afforded him!
I was a bit worried about Frenzy for awhile there. But my boys will be good consistent pilotes and the Jordan can only keep getting better. |

Dilemma, dilemma!
Do I want Coulthard to get his points back or not. As a human being I would have to say, yes. But as a team manager (who's nothing like a human being) I would say, no way Jose! Because of the disqualification of the McLaren, I climbed from 229 to 197 in the ranks. Seems everyone in here gained some points, so if McLaren do get the points back, I suggest we all file a protest to the FIA. It'll only cost us a couple of thousand dollars. |
