Dont Speed In A F1 Car In India

You can't blame an F1 driver from driving fast. That's what they're supposed to do. Evidently authorities in India feel differently, however, as they've slapped David Coulthard with an enormous £20,000 (approx $33k) ticket for breaking the speed limit. The kicker? It was for a Formula 1 demonstration on a closed-off section of roadway.

The winner of thirteen grands prix (and one of the top points scorers of all time) retired from active racing at the end of last season, but remains a consultant and test driver for the Red Bull Racing team which he helped form. The team recently held a demonstration run in Mumbai, India, drawing a crowd of some 50,000 racing fans.

Part of the route took Coulthard across the Rajiv Ghandi Sea Link. The bridge has a maximum speed limit of 62 miles per hour, and even drops to 31 MPH in some parts. DC, however, was clocked at 162 MPH. As a result, the local authorities are reportedly withholding the £20,000 deposit which the team put down for the event, making for one mammoth speeding ticket. But at least Coulthard isn't stuck paying out of pocket.

Red Bull Gives You Wings And Coke!

Six German states have told retailers to stop selling Red Bull Cola energy drinks after a test found a trace amount of cocaine.

The bans started Friday after a sample test conducted by authorities in North Rhine-Westphalia state found 0.4 micrograms per liter in the drink.

Five other states also banned it from shops amid concerns over possible narcotics law violations.

Germany's Federal Institute for Risk Assessment said Monday that the cocaine level was too low to pose a health risk. It planned to produce a more detailed report Wednesday.

Red Bull said its cola is "harmless and marketable in both the U.S. and Europe." It said similar coca leaf extracts are used worldwide as flavoring, and a test it commissioned itself found no cocaine traces.

F1 China Review

Well I was close on my predictions. Red Bull pulled off the 1-2 pretty much dominating the race. Button got close to Webber but the red bull car was faster than anyone else and would've really pulled away if the race wasnt boggled down in rain. I was kinda disappointed with the race beginning under the safety car but the entire track was a puddle at the start. Once the race started up there were some good crashes. I particularly liked Kubica going on top of Trulli in which the US commentators likened it to grasshoppers fucking. Seriously.

Another race and still no points for my favorite team Ferrari. Its ok though maybe its Asia so when they return to Europe on May 10 they just have to finish 1-2 in all the European races to technically win.

Bahrain GP is next week cant wait to see the 777/747s do a fly over.
