Just ran across this over at Jalopnik........don't think it's been posted here before. Some kinda promotional thingy put together by Tag Heuer. it's got racing drivers, cars and watches so that alone makes it pretty cool.

Now I'm wondering - how fast could a modern F1 car lap the Le Mans circuit? Would it be possible to put one together that would last a full race, or would they simply count on building up a 30 minute lead every 4 hours so they could swap the engine along with the driver?

Ya kinda ironic. In the clip Steve wishes Lewis "good luck". If Australia is any indication, Hamilton will need a little luck this year. Along with a few others!!

  1. The coolest bloke on the planet is James Bond.
  2. James Bond is fictional, so the coolest guy to ever live was Steve McQueen.
  3. Lewis Hamiliton is dating (I could use other verbs) the lead singer of the Bob Costas Cat Dolls. So he is infinitely cool.
  4. But no human male ever born is cooler than Steve McQueen. No one.

OK- who wrote the forum software that automatically replaces swear words with "Bob Costas"? - well done - it rhymes with wussy.

Fixed that for you.

Lewis is lame. do not compare him to the great Mr. McQueen....or any of the Bonds for that matter.
