Apparently the trophies planned to be presented on the podium were withdrawn because of their similarity to a toy called Bearbrick.
I have to say, the trophies looked crap, as does Bearbrick. No great loss to the world really and at least they didn't make them wear stetsons on the podium. Had they, I shall insist on bowler hats adorned with the Pirelli logo at the British GP next year.
