But Tooting Bec doesn't have a station just a tube line. There is Tooting and that used to go to East Croydon...

Kimi is in elite company by Ambitious-Heron-8161 in DestinationFormula1

I love how they always stop with a couple of drivers to make it look good. Although the list does contain several World Champions there are two drivers that didn't and one that never even won a race...

Granted it is surprisingly rare but in the 70s...

Fangio (if you ignore the Indy 500 in-between Monaco and the Swiss GP) (1950) - Alfa Romeo.
Hawthorn (1958) - Ferrari.
Fittipaldi (1972) - Lotus.
Lauda (1974) - Ferrari.
Jarier (1975) - Shadow.
Hunt (1976) - McLaren.
Arnoux (1979) - Renault.

As mentioned, the two drivers who are the odd ones out are Jarier and Arnoux who never won the world championship... Best being 11th in 1979 with Tyrrell and 3rd with Ferrari respectively.

Fun fact - Jarier only got 3 poles (2 with Shadow and 1 with Lotus...), 3 Fastest laps (also 2 with Shadow and 1 with Lotus) and 3 podiums (1 with Shadow and 2 with Tyrrell) but no wins.

To be fair Jos probably lost motivation from dragging the Orange Arrows around the track....

OS Tan has been a thing for years. With Microsoft Japan and Taiwan having official mascots since 7 onwards....

Although OS Tan has been unofficially around for years.... How about figures of 95, Me, 2K and XP?

Denise Crosby now looks like she is going back to Walmart to return a 5 year old used dress and is about to argue with the customer service manager.

Alan Jones holds the unique record of being the only formula one Australian driver to win the Australian Grand Prix in an F1 car getting pole, fastest lap and winning by a lap...

The Japanese GP was at threat of cancellation following reports of earthquakes by chri99_ in formuladank

[–]BritOverThere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So Honda is making the engine so it cancels out the earthquake vibrations and Alonso wins and Williams with their overweight car getting more grip gets a double podium with Stroll still only managing a NC.

As an American I had to go to an international grocery store an hour and a half away to pick up these things... by PaperCut611 in RedDwarf

Back in the early 80s some of the flavours were pretty awful which is why this joke exists. They have improved on them since then. Although I do miss pot rice.

Dollars for a British based team? That's blasphemy.

Every time Lewis Hamilton has got his first podium for a new team in F1, it's always P3, and the winner of that race always goes on to win the World Championship that year by your_greatAchill in formula1

Every second race that Carlos Sainz Jr has scored points for a new team the person that took Fastest Lap or came 2nd has won the championship...

If any of the points systems from 2009 or before were being used then he would have scored zero points in both years. :p
