Fantasy Formula 1 - Abu Dhabi: The other stuff

Hello, Other Stuff fans. Here we are again, then.

I guess you'll be wanting stats'n'that, right? Righty-ho...


Fantasy Formula 1 driver of the day was Hamilton, with 27 points.

Well done to Henry, who becomes the first person (and maybe the only?) to clear 1000 FF1 points.

Bad weekend for Heather – a 6 point total adds her to the worst 3 scores of the season... for the 3rd time.

The top 3 drivers so far are Vettel, Button and Alonso. Heidfeld may only have done 11 races, but he’s still in the top 10!

The top 3 teams so far are Red Bull, McLaren and Ferrari. Rubens’ feisty drive sees the Williams team move all the way up to 10th.

Although he didn’t come first in this race, Henry still extends his lead to a (season-winning?) 75 points.

Leaders to date: Heather (1 race), Neil (3), Me (4), Ian (1), Me again (1), Ian again (1), Henry (7).

Front to back gap? A hoofing 521 points. Henry has more than double the points of Jon.

Fantasy Formula 1: Where Rubens just signed a 5 year deal with a nice team. For a change.

Next race: Tea-time final hurrah in Brazil, on 27th November.


(Yes, I am still listening to Beatles CD's - thanks for asking. Tonight, its the turn of Rubber Soul from 1965. Fabtastic!)

A very modern malady

Hello. I’m Doctor Grenville, and I’m here today to talk to you about SSS – or “Sad Selfie Syndrome”, to give it it’s full medical name. I’m a fully qualified medical doctor thing – I’ve got a PhD from Queens University Academy College Kendal (or “QUACK” for short) to prove it. That means it’s OK for me to talk to you about a very sensitive subject today and stroke your knee. Soothing, no? In my many years of medicinalising practice, I’ve come across some terrible afflictions. I’ve seen Achey Breaky Heart, Kneesles (where you get an itchy rash on your kneecaps) and even a very rare case of the Mercedes Benz. But recently I started seeing shocking images, on social media, graphically showing the devastating results of SSS. If you haven’t heard of it before, you’ve almost certainly seen pictures of what happens to the victims, who are mostly under the age of 30. We’ve already come to understand the irrational, overwhelming need for some amongst this group to photograph everythin...

Fantasy Formula 1 - Hungary Results

Sometimes there's a wonderful "huh?" moment in F1. Today's was when the lights didn't go to red at the start, but flashed green and yellow. I'm sure all the drivers are briefed, and everyone knows the drill, but they all just sat there - no-one wanted to be the first to move. In the most high-tech sport in the world, it took Charlie Whiting waving at them to make them go. To be honest, it wasn't the most thrilling of races, but Happy Hamilton "The slow boys won't get out of my way! It's not fair! Boohoohooo - I'm telling Charlie!" winning does mean the front end of the points table still looks deliciously tight. What we really need now, as the excitement level ramps up, is.... to take 5 weeks off. Dammit. Still, to keep you occupied, I want you to memorise the points you all scored today. It's easy to remember mine. I came last... RACE RESULT Position Name Point...

Feel that sudden chill in the air? It’s winter, heading this way. Or you’ve left the fridge door open. One of those, definitely. According to people with the word ‘meteorologist’ somewhere in their job title, it has been the driest September since records began. Hardly surprising, really – the wettest winter on record immediately beforehand almost certainly used up all the available rain in the sky early (Note to self: check the sciencey stuff, it doesn’t sound quite right). With just 20% of the normal rainfall of the most Septembery of months, 2014 trounced the previous record holder, good old 1959. Whilst this may have led to less plump courgettes, and parched blue tits mugging you for your bottle of mineral water, it does have a beneficial side-effect: Your granddad will finally have to stop saying “Dry? You don’t know what dry is! When I were but a lad...” Clearly disappointing for grandpops, especially so soon after the “Wet winter? Pah! When I were but a lad...” sto...
