“And so, back to work”
And so, back to work.
“Pau”
There is something gloriously old about Pau. As a town, many of its buildings have a lived-in, long life comfortable feel about - honest about the lines and wear that age will bring. Monza, too, possesses such a charm.
“The Nearly Men”
It had been something of a slow start to the 2013 GP2 Series season for both Marcus Ericsson and Felipe Nasr.

“Fool’s Gold: Thoughts on Pirelli and Formula One”
News emerged from Italy today that Pirelli bosses had met with member of the FIA and FOM over the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix weekend to discuss the possibility of mandating two tyre changes in Formula One next season.
