Got to agree he's a real nice bloke Terry. I was watching Race 2 at Knockhill from the hairpin when he retired his car into the stock car loop, he sat there for the rest of the race chatting away to the two marshals from what I seen. Most drivers would normally keep their helmet on and walk away.

Well, I don't think so and I've seen it. I've seen Zanardi be off the pace in the SuperT era at his first outing, I've seen World Champion Mika Hakkinen off the pace in DTM, and so is Ralf Schumacher. A lap in a Lacetti in which he has no serious opponents and he just has fun is one thing, challenging Giovanardi, a 2 times British Champion (and much more) is another. I'm sorry, I'll never agree on that...

Off topic here... Herbert thinks he will win at Silverstone, lucky for points or a finish I think.

He should at least match/beat Herbert at Silverstone.

I don't think the actual way he said it was as cut and dry as that. More a case of being asked what he'll be happy with and he replied a win. Show me a racing driver who'd give any other answer than that.
