To be read in a Geordie accent... Race 14 in the Big Brother F1 series. Sebastian finished first again in Sunday's Grand Prix challenge and is now immune from eviction. Jenson put in a late charge but was unable to stop the finger from rising once again. Rumours persist that his love affair with Martin is in trouble and he's making eyes at the old Italian team. Could he swap his English rose for a Latin temptress? Mark managed one of his best results but yet again had trouble pedalling his car away at the start. He's looking safe from eviction at the end of the season as his Austrian friend won't vote him out. Fernando looked very lonely and despite the hot weather still couldn't get his hards warm while his softs wore out too...

This is Martian Bumble reporting live from the F1 paddock. As always I'm going to try my best to poke my nose into everyone's business, whether they like it or not. There's lots to talk about today considering the recent shenanigans between Versuseveryone and Peniz. Hey, there's Leak Stephensomeone who works for Bared Balls. Let's see if we can get a few words from him. So Leak, I heard a rumour that most people in the team think that Versuseveryone acted like a total **** last week. What makes them say that? Well, it's fairly obvious, isn't it? He's really not very well liked, apart from by Horny, who apparently has had a silicone model of one his body parts made. Hmm, well, that's disturbing ... I know, right! It's worse than...

(the lights dim and spotlights flow around the stage) Announcer: Please welcome to the stage the stars of this years F1 grid (all the drivers run on in pairs to thunderous applause) Annoucer: ....and please welcome your host Sebassstttiian Vetttteeeel! (Sebastian runs on to the stage in front of the line up of drivers) SV: Hey! Has anyone seen any of the other F1 drivers? Audience: There behind you! SV: Aren't they always? RINGADINGDING! (shows off the finger). Ladies and Gentlemen I'd like to welcome you to the first annual F1 Variety Show! and without further delay lets kick off the show with a musical number from the 3 Nic's! (Audience applaudes loudly as all the drivers run off stage and the lights are dimmed) (3 Spotlights...

Rooters News Well 2011 draws inexorably to a close and the staff in Fenderman's Head are asking themselves the question "Was it all worth it?" "So," thought Tellie Fenderman "how shall we find out?" Rad Booton, lost in deep thought about the future possibilities for a fictional character residing in a rather crowded fictional office, inside a fictional head, inside a real head living somewhere in Kent, Blighty, said "Pardon?" Tellie thought his question again and Rad piped up "Readers Survey!" "Brilliant idea," thought Tellie, "Make it so!" And thus, so it came to pass that, at great personal risk to his feelings, Rad Booton has posted this poll on that illustrious domain known as Clip The Apex - Clip The Apex Presents. Of...

In this thread I am going to post art work that I have drawn and tried to capture the lighter side of Formula One and other motorsport. My goal is to provide a humorous take on current and past events. My inspiration comes from the great Jim Bamber. His art style has always been a great source of joy for myself. I hope you enjoy the comic. If you have any suggestions or requests for a certain story please send me a private message to my inbox.

And welcome one and all to a new season of Formula One racing. The SKY is bright blue and there is not a cloud in it as we look forward to another season of action packed racing. For only the second year in Formula One history, the races are being televised live on television. This inovative feature only began in 2012 but it has come on in giant steps and apparently has now become the number one way for people to watch our wonderful sport. F1 is for everyone, from those who love the Nissan SKYline to those who remember when SKY was in Neigbours. It dosn't matter if you think it's all pie in the SKY. For each race throughout the season there will be post race analysis provided by our ex-F1 driver and motoring correspondent Barty...

For your entertainment I have decided to post the entire series of YOST in one place. We start at the beginning which seems a sensible idea even if the strip is rather insensible. This first episode was much like a pilot and was in honour of MCLS 's birthday. Just like on the telly a warm reception from Rooters fans meant that we, the occupants of Fenderman's Head, commissioned further episodes. So here we go and if you haven't received your own personal episode please understand that they are time consuming and we don't always get off the starting blocks in reasonable time for everyone's birthday. Sometimes we simply don't know when a birthday is looming until it's way too late. Oh, and I should mention a few pointers: Members who...

Ross Brawn is sitting at his desk at the MGP head office when the special silver phone rings on his desk: Ross: “Hello, Ross speaking.” Screen splits to show caller: Lewis: “Yo Mr Brawn, owz it hanging?” Ross: “Oh hello Lewis, Fine thanks. What can I do for you?” Lewis: “Yo Mr Brawn, it’s about the company nickname ‘Silver Arrows’, Lewis don’t like it” Ross: “And what exactly don’t you like about it Lewis?” Lewis: “Well Lewis was watchin that Olympics fing and Silver is for second place man and that ain’t Lewis.

Susie: Busy, I spent the whole day in the simulator again. Toto: How iz zat coming along? Susie: Not bad, not bad at all. They finally got around to giving me Felipe's copy of Grandprix 2014 and Sir Frank says if I can complete Monaco in novice mode higher than sixth, with realistic crashes on, then he will let me drive the car off the transporter and into the garage at Spa. Toto: Snookems zat is vonderful. I love you zo much. Now could you pass ze salt. Susie: Of course I can pass Zesalt? Is he the new Caterham test driver? I may be female darling but you know I can mix it with...

A bargain board for all F1 fans - a series of collectables that will be available after each race from the the 2012 season. We will start with the Shanghai, China GP. Apologies for those of you who were hoping for something from Australia or Malaysia - we are still in negotiation - items may become available later in the season. All lots will come with certification from the seller as to their authenticity - everything for sale here formed part of the spectacle and result. We have a selection of used and new items. All are open to bids, but we have set 'reserves' on some items. Lot 1 - numerous sets of NEW inters and wets. Pirelli have decided not to ship these over to Bahrain - the cost involved is huge and the upcoming venue...
