Maybe the F1 boys want to use these racers as an example. _________________ Back to top kraftwerk Twin-charged My Car: Mercedes-Benz SL500; Fiat 128; Fiat 238B Weinsberg Joined: 08 Jan 2007 Posts: 8436 Location: London Posted: Sun May 18, 2008 4:19 pm    Post subject: Lorenzo's been incredible in his rookie big bike season. And how cool to see him suck on a Chupa Chup (his helmet sponsor) on the podium? Chupa Chups - Spanish for Sucky Suck - the first lollipop and the first sweet in space, fact fans. Wonderful tribute from Valentino, to both Angel Nieto  - whose GP wins total he equalled today - and to Robert Dunlop, whose helmet colours Angel wore as he chauffeured Vale around on his victory lap. Brilliant touches. _________________ I don't want to achieve immortality through my work. I want to achieve it through not dying.
