Mansell will always be "my driver". I got in to F1 properly in 1990 and that Senna-Prost-Mansell era will always be the one I hold closest to my heart. It's also left me deeply disturbed, and my allegiance since then has been: Mansell → Villeneueve → Montoya → Hamilton.

For me it was

Are Nige, Are Damo, Are Monto, Are Jense and Are Rossie

Nando is someone I used to hate but since his death he has transcended into something... more... almost divine like.

Special shout out to adopted Are Bruno, though not a great driver is just such a good and cool person just like Are Chando.

This is completely fair. 1989 was the shift from turbo to only the 3.5 liter N/A engines, so few companies were spending any resources on turbo development. Many of the midfield teams had already moved over the the new engines, including even Williams.

Everyone really, the only other turbos running other than Honda and Ferrari were the ancient BMW and Alfa based units Arrows and Osella were using and whatever the hell Zakspeed thought they were playing at.

Yep, Lotus and Ferrari were the only other real "major" teams with turbos. And Ferrari of course the only team to win a race besides that McLaren.

Thanks, I was mobile posting and didn't see the pic. That pretty firmly puts me in the Sonos camp for wireless audio duties then! (If I wasn't too cheap to buy one, instead of probably just jury-rigging a Chromecast Audio setup, that is).

I googled horsemeat the other day and horse steaks look surprisingly inticing. Not that I could ever eat such an intelligence creature mind you. Only the dumb ones are to be butchered and consumed.

Horses are dumb as poo poo, and it takes more effort to stop them from killing themselves than it's worth.

there are a lot of delicious animals you're probably not eating already though.

Hold on, Powershift, let's not make all of Canada sound like it's on the edge of the wild frontier. We have plain old boneless/skinless chicken breasts and ground beef available at the town mercantile too.

My grandfather and his friend used to just go out hunting in a Lada Niva and there's be a huge dinner with tons of different game meats every year. God drat best meat I've ever had was some venison at one of those dinners.
