Worth a watch on catch up:
Channel 4 - Guy Martin & Jenson Button driving a couple of Williams F1 cars at the Silverstone Classic. The FW08C (the programme includes some of the re-building of it and the Cosworth engine) and the six-wheel prototype - was it the 08B? |

No worries Mike! Just realised I posted it in the wrong thread - was meant to be in the ‘natter’ - oops.

Did Brode try to get you to buy a copy of his memoirs, they're an entertaining read!

He gave them to me. I have not read the books yet. Guess it will be for some time. If anyone wants to borrow them you will be welcome.

I got a great buzz watching him drive the RS. His feed back was good. We split the oil cooler so early bath. I was pleased with the diff and gearbox we had just rebuilt so it was a good shake down.Roll on September.

Crikey Iain, back in a 500 this weekend?
You may need to watch out for the one in these photos. If he's not attempting to blind you with oil smoke he's probably trying to distract you from your rhythm by making his car as "wide" as possible. Maybe wider. |

There are a few more in the full sequence. And I must confess that as you briefly disappeared from my view behind the marshal post I was not expecting any of the three of you to reappear still on track and heading in the right direction. I have a memory that you kept the place as well, at least at that point as you passed where I was viewing. No. 23 seemed to have things running very well in the race though so difficult to resist. I'll upload the files somewhere and PM you a link so that you can download them at a decent size. Probably today but it may slip to tomorrow. |

I once had an interesting trip round London Classic car dealers with someone who knew the name of all the anonymous backers of the various businesses! |

BTW I did JS a disservice suggesting that no bread was baked from raw ingredients in their stores now. Appears in the big supermarkets (not sure about the small ones) they still create some loaves from scratch. That from a friend who works for them...... |
