Two of the finest cricketers you will see though

Turned it off, it was awful

Got beaten up by the Saffas

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

Have the culprits been identified?

[redgunamo]

[Luis Anaconda]

Man should be locked up

[Berni]

the tedium?

When I ask people who attend F1 races what they like about it, they say 'The noise'. :-|

I presume it's the same in Formula 1 as it was at the speedway, back when I used to attend.

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

If a Sinhalese tried to put me off my stick-wielding by saying, 'Your mum' *headwobble* I'd just piss myself laughing.

the sand at some point, which makes it all much more interesting.

Ghastly people, though. Although this was in Workington.

[Winston Wolfe]

On the plus side we'll get the final four we all want to see.

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

Pitch up at Silverstone with a Ferrari flag. f**king weirdos.

[Pat Vegas]

That's why the first corner is the exciting bit.
Or maybe a pitstop when things can go wrong.

I used to really like it.

[Luis Anaconda]

Standing by my prediction of a Kiwi win but yes - four best teams should be there

[71 Guns - channeling the spirit of Mr Hat]

oh

[Pat Vegas]

is the worst won.

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

What a rotten 48 hours that trip was.

[Berni]

absolutely no interest whatsoever in the 'fans' or - in many cases - in the sport itself beyond the technical. It's really a very odd business. Basically, you have these big, incredibly advanced, ludicrously well-funded engineering firms that exist under the umbrella of a sport. Supporting one of them would be like supporting General Electric, ffs!.

[Winston Wolfe]

Windies have got a chance at Wellington albeit a small chance,

It's the sort of small ground where you don't want Chris Gayle getting into any sort of stride.

It's not impossible for him to smash a quick 150 there and set the Windies up for a win.

But the flip side is you'd have to Boult, Southee and Vettori to get wickets. I suppose Gayle will need to go after the latter.

Shame the Windies lose Bravo, Pollard, Rampaul and Narine before the tournament. Threw their chance away right there.

[Berni]

Although that clearly isn't always the case.

I imagine some rough couplings take place in their dingy little slums. Yes, I can imagine it.

Back in 5.

[Luis Anaconda]

McCullum is due a good knock as well. Been impressed with this Holder chap - never heard of him before the tournament but they've done well to recover from the Ireland debacle
