D for desire
1. You're behind on bus on the way to work. Instead of trying to overtake it, you wait for it to dive into the pits stop at the bus stop

2. Stopping at a zebra crossing is a stop and go penalty

3. Stopping for petrol on the way home from work is a 'quick splash and dash'

Lol ermmmm
when you check sites constantly for any scrap of news
when you indicate anf fit behind someone on road you're just slotting in until the right momentum to overtake
whenever anyone talks about Buttons you think of JB
whenever you drive past a BMW or Toyota and you immediately start talking about why they left the sport and the ramifications
when you race in traffic lights with some renault clio driven by a young boy racer
when you spend time daydreaming about how easily you could have been the formula1 world champion
when it raisn you consider not putting wipers on to get the feel of driving in a f1 car in the wet ...please don't try it
when you spend your life karting
when you miss playing f1 drinking game
when you spend all day playing rfactor instead of work
when you buy your little cousin a model f1 car and explain the physics and engineering behind it when they are too young to comprehend what engineering means
when you start to wonder if heidfeld is attractive
when you watch f1 review dvds at the early hours of the morning so you can relive the actual moment you watched the races tongue.gif

Like it, especially the splash n dash lol.gif

1) You get cut up on the motorway and see red because you believe you've just been a victim of the "Schumacher Chop" and make plans to retaliate! mad.gif

2) You see a tranny running down the street (I swear I did the other day, it had an adams apple but looked like a chick!) and you think "hey, that thing runs like Sutil!"

3) You get overtaken by a car with more BHP carrying huge speed and you think "twat, you only got past me because you've a better car; i'm the better driver and in the same car you wouldn't stand a chance! Fluke!" tongue.gif

4) You're working for a small I.T company which gets bought by a larger German firm (www.pc-ware.de - true story!) and get shat on forcing you to seek employment elsewhere and think "jeez, now I know how Jense must have felt!"

3) You overtake a BMW or Mercedes with your small compact and you feel like an Alonso.

I do most of this and more,but certainly the worst is the incessant speeding in traffic with running commentary to go along with it. This off-season I hasn't seen a lot of action yet except for last week,when 'weaving' behind a newly married couple's vehicle,with the inferior car at my disposal, I caught their 'slipstream' and drafted past,briefly going 'wheel-to-wheel' through 'eau rouge'. (mild hill that curves left and then kinks right)

up.gif Yup, did that a few times with my first car, a white Citreon Saxo 1.1i - yes I know she wasn't the fastest car on earth but boy did she claim some massive scalps at the old Traffic Light GP! clap.gif
