More F1 news

This is more for Spouse's eyes than anyone else- it's the only way I can get him to read the article- he's too busy otherwise...

From F1 Racing Live:

Throughout the weekend, Toyota's Jarno Trulli ran with the message "JP 2 I love you," on his helmet, but in the insular world of F1, not everyone in the Sakhir paddock realised this message was one of respect for the Pope John Paul II, thinking instead that it was a strange reference to the injured Juan Pablo Montoya.

David Coulthard ran into the back of Jacques Villeneuve in the very last moments of the Bahrain Grand Prix. After the race, he rushed round to the Sauber office to apologise, as the two men are good friends, often parking their personal motorhomes next to one another at European races. David actually found Jacques naked in the shower and the Canadian accepted the apology, presumably because he did not want to start a fight without any clothes on. Coulthard was particularly keen to know he was forgiven as he was due to hitch a lift home in Villeneuve's private plane.

(there's an image for you- DC and Villeneuve hugging whilst naked and wet....I really shouldn't go there. They probably have really expensive lawyers...)
