So you are saying Lewis should have won the last race of 2021, and already have his 8th title, as human error handed it to Max.
Me? No but the FIA says this

That could be an interesting aspect to the racing this season; I'm clearly not old enough to remember when F1 cars had "skirts" before (
) but Grandad told me that riding over the kerbs damaged them, destroying the ground effect.
Does Grandad recall the ground sucking fan cars or the sliding side skirts?

In my opinion, it would be good to see Lewis Hamilton win an 8th title and become the greatest F1 driver of all time. After all he is British.
Any world champion of any sport must earn the title not have it handed to them through human error.

Being dropped to the track after a tyre change and bending a track rod is being offered for the RB steering problems, if so then someone in the design department needs their **** kicked.

Nice to see Ferarri making a strong return.
And returning to the old darker shade of red.
It is not unusual to see a few DNF in the first race of the season neither.

Swancraft at Brundall is currently £1.40, as always best to call ahead nearer the day.

I always thought coventry climax was a petrol fire pump engine often used in old power boats, or was the climax label a generalised name from the same factory?
Coventry Climax was an engine manufacture from 1903 through to the `70s

Any thoughts on what the new season will bring ?
I can see a war on how mirrors can be mounted to the cars developing along with stricter controls on track limits and more drivers driving with their elbows out this season. Hoping for close racing throughout the field.

my wish list.

a Dutch steel cruiser,such as a Pedro 30/33 or similar
must have a bow thruster though if single engine.
maybe a pontoon neighbour or family friend ,

I’m searching everyday,not because I’m desperate,
purely because I need to see the boats.
unless you’ve studied your target boat,you won’t know whether there “all like that sir”
Ah, I know what you mean there! Was amazed at there many different lay outs on my target boat I saw, then I found The One

Keeping a look out,
personally,
I think an active forum like this is my place to buy.
you guys will know,the owner,the boat,and it’s history,
word of mouth and social contacts.
It’s the way I’ve carried my work forward for the most of my working life.
All true however explore all options I say and dont put all your eggs in one basket.

The odd boat does pop up on fleabay and gumtree (norfolk) now and then by owners selling privately not want to paying brokers fees.

Just saying that not any old silicon that you may have laying around are safe to use when potable water is involved ie fresh water pumps.

Diesel Prices

Right own up who was it that took all the diesel from Swancraft!
I`ve just heard that they are awaiting delivery and unable to give a price at the moment as the supplier is changing their price on a daily basis.
