Well, the Monaco decision does seem to back up my original assertion about 100 years ago (or so it seems) on Ten Tenths that the girls are just there for men to ogle at.


Grand Prix racing doesn't appear ground to have ground to a halt due to their absence.

I think I got a glimpse of the grid girls but with the media scrum it was hard to be sure. I think they are dressed in red and white trouser-suits?

there was an unintentionally hilarious moment on the SKY broadcast when Flavio interrupted a grid interview (with Ross Brawn i believe) to share his views of the girls on the grid...Brundle couldnt get away from Flav fast enough.

not the worst thing i have heard but certainly a cringe worthy moment.

anyways, guys, girls, and kids out there. seemed like a reasonable compromise. even Prince Albert came across as more accessible and the Princess was even taking slugs from the champers.



cant help but feel that this more progressive approach in general made for a more open and inviting event.

I suspect the puritans will be seeking to ban Her Royal Highness Princess Charlene from all future Monaco GPs on 1mthe basis that she's lovely and a fun person.

It was one of those do something you don't want to do just so you'll be popular with everyone around you moments.

I didn't think it was that calculated, more a case of I'm not happy about this but I'll go along with it as I cant really refuse with everyone watching...

probably worth saying that any well educated lady is taught never to drink from a bottle of champagne because it bubbles back and goes everywhere. plus it's also not very classy and would be frowned upon...

those bad boys are heavy, she probably tipped it so far and decided it wasn't worth the risk, particularly as a member of the royal family.

Best bit about that picture is the reactions of everyone else to Charlene's antics, every face tells a story even Adrian brushing a hand over the back of his head. It's actually a great shot.

This is a little sexist. If men, both well educated and not, can drink from a bottle of champagne, in the interest of equality, a lady, educated or not, should feel comfortable and welcome to drink from one as well. It is insulting that one action that is so inoccuous would be used as a judgment of class or be frowned upon.

with all due respect, you have been pretty clear on your dislike of Liberty's decision but here we are now talking about a picture of probably the first women to actually ever actively take part in a podium celebration and your first instinct is to knock her as doing something 'fake' and doing something for the sake of being popular.

honestly im at a loss to understand that one.
