As a South African chauvinist I must ask you international blokes "Who is the only female driver ever to win an F1 race"?

Clue = name is immortalized at Brands hatch?

I find it hard to accept Aston Martin as a major force in the Automotive Industry.

Their previous attempts at expansion have all failed.

Mick Schumacher has almost perfect English - just the faintest accent but total instant command of vocabulary.

German schoolboys of my acquaintance (Visiting friends son) told me that English is compulsory these days from Junior school.

Yes, we had a 15 year old German exchange student 30 years ago and his comprehension of English was such that he never missed innuendoes in our family conversations.

Bottas, Hamilton, Verstappen. The usual three.... I fell asleep during Q3, woke up to hear the RTL Germans jabbering away, couldn't think where I was...
