loving lol every time at his career. Straight off a cliff.

Okay, and here I was thinking Jos is crazy. That title has been revoked in my book.

Bike racing has some great "off a loving cliff" careers. And some very depressing ones.

Jacques just had a very hard time coming to terms that he was going bald rapidly and horribly.

Jos literally beats his wife and son into submission and lives through Max as the driver he wishes he was.

so what is this Triple Crown poo poo? Tony ponders

I wonder if an American created it. I've never heard anyone other than Americans talk about it. It kind of elevates their Indy into another tier, although it is Monaco lol.

I googled it and an American reporter in an American publication called the Daily Racing Form put it into widespread use in the 1930s.

Triple Crown - Yet another thing the Yanks made up and act like we should all know what it is

I can't find a picture of it, but it still doesn't beat when Damon Hill showed up to do the F1 Digital UK coverage in 2002 with a goatee and what looked like some kind of perm.

Okay, I'll concede. Jacques is that weird goon you don't want to associate with. Jos is that child & wife beater you definitely don't want to associate with.

Which raises the question;


who is the gooniest F1 driver ever? Taki Inoue seems way too obvious a choice. Any other good candidates?

Stroll is also pretty obvious contender

Yeah but he got cool in his old age. Also too successful.


True. I could imagine Alonso being a secret goon, but he's too pretty, successful and ungoony in just about every other way.

This is actually a pretty cool story behind that stupid zipper livery. It was getting around sponsorship rules.

That's pretty great on that bike.

In cars its gotta be the the Black and Gold JPS Lotus. For bikes, for some reason the one that sticks out for me is the Castrol Honda colours of the 90's. I don't know why, its not like they were particularly special.

I have to disagree. The Rothmans livery is the bananas
