I got this idea from the Frank Williams thread.

How would you some up F1 drivers, team bosses, journalists, past and present etc in only three words?

For example you might choose Jarno Trulli : Smooth, Inconsistant, Friendly.

Or Justin Wilson: Tall, Quick, Yorkshire.

Frank Williams: Modest, Decent Humility.

What can you lot come up with? It'll be interesting to see peoples choice of words. Can three words accurately define a personality?

How about Ron Dennis: Ruthless, Whining, Baldy

Incidentally, the guy who works in my local post office is the dead spit of Ron Dennis, it really is uncanny. And he always wears silvery grey shrits. . . . .

F1 drivers: Personality? What Personality?

We really don't get to know them that well.

[Garagiste]

If you want to keep this one civil, I'd suggest you make it clear that the words "Total" and "utter" can't be used as the first two!

Very good point . All words must be non sequential, in other words, no three word sentences.


Fernando Alonso: Exciting, Rash, Eyebrows.

Color me confused. I thought Naomi Campbell used to date Briatore. He had to give her a $2 millions or a house in Spain, I can't remember which, as a settlement for punching her. After that little incident, did he pass her off to Bernie? I guess I haven't been reading the Grapevine often enough.
