F1: Brain: Shitparker should stay at Mercedes by Mathias Olaf Uncertain
2nd Jun 2012
MoreHades team boss Ross Brain says he would like Michael Shitparker to stay on as long as he is competitive, according to the Beeb.

Interesting concept that one: "as long as he is competitive".

I mean, when was the last time he was truly competitive? The Beeb in their infinite wisdom have made much of his recording the fastest quali time at Monaco as indicating such a thing as a return to previous form. But, lest we forget, even his fat, stupid brother has recorded a fastest quali time at Monaco.

And far be it from us to remind readers that the last time he was actually competitive at Monaco, he managed to lose control and crash his car. At 14 mph.

The Beeb also note that only one of his three retirements so far this year has been due to driver error. Setting aside for a moment the fact that this isn't exactly an outstanding record, to what are we expected to give the credit for his continued failure to get onto the podium at all, unlike his race-winning team-mate, if not driver error?

So, come on Ross, say what you mean and mean what say: you're going to sack the over-the-hill fucker.
