OK, so Jenson’s the F1 world champion and he’s The Man right now, but I’ve got one over him: I’ve driven Yas Marina circuit and he hasn’t. So there. Yeah.

What a great result for British sport at Interlagos on Sunday. Don’t forget that Brawn, which was Honda last year and almost disappeared altogether over Christmas, is a British-owned team, staffed by British people almost exclusively.

I wrote a story about Brawn GP a couple of weeks ago for the magazine, which you can read about this week when you buy it, which you should – it’s a good issue, though I would say that, wouldn’t I?
