Clip The Apex Presents...

Comedic entertainment for general consumption; a series of writings and parodies by contributors from the Clip The Apex community.
The Odd Couple The off-season had been long, the new F1 season seemed to never arrive… There were changes in the F1 regulations, changes in the cars. There was also changes in the driver line-ups. There were also changes in the “Clip the Apex Presents…” blogs. As evidenced in the “Fernando Alonso’s Extraneous Adventures” blog… --- --- --- --- Fernando tried to settle Perky into his new home but, being an excitable pig, this was not an easy thing to do. Normally Perky’s stomach was predictable, but ever since the move from Maranello Tower, Fernando had realised there was a problem. “Perky, there really is no need to worry. Uncle Kimi is a very nice chap”; Fernando said in a reassuring tone. “Oink…”; said Perky, sounding...
1 In the Ferrari garage, Fernando stood alone and frightened, unable, or unwilling to move. The realisation that his condition, suffering with the disease LeproFerrarisy, left him susceptible to losing badly. And Fernando was already a bad loser. Being a Ferrari Leper just made things worse. Taking a deep breath, he slowly rotated on the spot so he was facing the door to the Ferrari garage and slowly moved his left foot forward. As he tried to move his right foot, he lost his balance and fell head-first to the floor, bashing his head on ... on on on on ~~~~ Bright light… Blinding bright light. Painful bright light. Eyelids flicker. “Are you hurt? Are you awake?” Fernando attempted to open his eyes, slowly. The light was...
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...

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...

BE: and your understanding of it? *Flavio lights another cigarette* DP: My understand...
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...
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.

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...
