What do you think of the FIA's design changes to aid overtaking this year?
It seems all of the design changes, less overall down-force, smaller rear wings and return to slicks, not to mention KERS, really hasn't worked. I think the cars are better to watch now that over-steer and twitchy handling has returned but the whole point of the changes were to ease overtaking (don't worry I'm not basing this on Monaco!) and it clearly hasn't worked. I'm not looking for 20 passes per lap or anything silly, just a few more per race would do. So what design changes would you be in favour of to assist overtaking? I asked this Q yesterday, why has it taken 20hrs for it to show?? I want my money back, Oi FOYAA help me!

i hate it . this KERS for a start has WRECKED f1, it would be so much better without it. And it would be much closer racing. F1 should be more about the driver rather than the cars!
2 :
Completely and utterly pointless. The rule responsible for the hideous look of the F1 rear and front wings were supposed to help create more slipstreaming and hence more overtaking. This is why, when people like me first saw the cars and whinced at how ugly they were, we consoled ourselves by saying "well at least it'll mean more overtaking". But now it has become fairly obvious that it makes little or no difference to a car following behind another. In short, we have ended up with the worst looking F1 cars in history for NO good reason. As for KERS, totally contradicts what the FIA is now saying about cost cutting. KERS costs a lot of money to develop, at a time when teams are under pressure to reduce spending, and the advantages they offer are minimal at best. The fact that all the cars which have won a race this year have been non-KERS cars sums it up really.

What do you think of this man
What do you think of this man?
A dual US/Belgium national residing in the United States, and I will only consider marrying an American women, if she will move to Belgium learn Dutch as a second language. She will have to make the same sacrifice as the American actress Grace Kelly, the mother of the current ruler of Monaco made. Grace Kelly had to sign a legal contract that says that if she moves back to America, her children will remain in Monaco. The American woman will have to sign the same type of contract that says that any children she has will remain in Belgium if she moves back to America. An International family lawyer that will only represent my interest will have to explain her legal consequences of this. If she does not agree to this than the marriage will never work out no matter what. If he can’t find an American woman that wants to do this than the only alternative is to marry a local Belgium girl who speaks Dutch as her native language, and thinks the US is a foreign country to her.

I can tell you what I think of people who post nonsense in YA, and I can tell you what I think of sexist, controlling idiots. But I'm not sure that answers your question.
2 :
The man sounds very controlling but he has a very good point. Children should not be moved out of their culture at such an early age and I don't think he's being selfish to protect the children if there was a divorce. So, this is a man who cares about his children and I think this would be a good husband. If they decide to marry and stay in the US, I would expect that he would make the same contract that keeps the children in the US. If he couldn't do that, then his motivations are selfish and that would be a deal-breaker for me.

I think he only wants to protect his interest. And I think he should marry a Dutch girl... ;-)

He needs to get real...what year is he living in?
5 :
Why would you want a typical American woman? Unless laws in Belgium are more male friendly than here in the US or Britain. European women tend to take much better care of themselves, look at the average 30 yr old European woman and then look at the average fat, short-haired, loud-mouthed American woman.
6 :
I think a man like this is an arrogant azz but hey, if you read the papers that crazy psycho-killer Drew Peterson in Illinois has actually gotten another girlfriend who "believes in him", what an idiot SHE must be, so lucky for you, anything is possible. I'm sure you can find a woman STUPID enough to go along with this, there's a sucker born every minute and especially if you wave a bunch of cash in front of them, you can probably find a stupid woman to agree to do this. As far as what I think of this man, I think you don't want to know what I think of this man, except if he's lucky he'll only go after the stupid ones who can't see through his shallow arrogant class-less head-games.

Could someone help my translate this in to french
Could someone help my translate this in to french?
I was born in Chealsea, London in 1988 to a French father and an American mother. I am the middle child with two other sisters one who is now 21 and one who is 16. When I was born we moved to Tokyo, Japan for my father’s work and then after 2 years moved back to London. After 2 more years in London we moved to Paris where my father worked for Bank national de Paris for four years. We lived in montmartre for several years and then moved out in to the suburbs to a place called fountain blue. We then moved back to London in 1997 and bought a house in a countryside town called Henley-on-thames. At this time my father was working in Africa for months at a time as he had started several mining companies in sierra-leone and Zaire (now known as the democratic republic of congo) and my elder sister and I attended a boarding school whilst my younger sister and my mother stayed at home. My parents divorced at around this time in 1998. Today My elder sister lives in London and my younger is at boarding school in America. My mother lives in London and My father lives part of the time in Monaco and part of the time in London. I now live in my own apartment in Holland park.

Here : Je suis né(e if you're a girl) en 1988 à Chelsea, un quartier de Londres, d'un père français et d'une mère américaine. Je suis l'enfant du milieu, mes deux soeurs ayant 16 et 21 ans. Quand je suis né(e if you're a girl), nous avons déménagé à Tokyo pour le travail de mon père. Après deux ans, nous sommes revenus à Londres. Nous avons alors passé deux années là , puis nous sommes allés à Paris où mon père travaillait pour la Banque nationale de Paris. Nous y sommes restés quatre ans. Nous avons vécu dans le quartier de Montmartre pendant plusieurs années puis avons déménagé en banlieue, à Fontainebleu. En 1997, nous sommes retournés à Londres et avons acheté une maison dans un petit village à la campagne, Henley-on-Thames. À ce moment, mon père travaillait en Afrique plusieurs mois par année car il avait fondé plusieurs compagnies minières au Sierra Leone et au Zaïre (maintenant la République du Congo). Ma soeur aînée et moi fréquentions un pensionnat pendant que ma petite soeur et ma mère restaient à la maison. Mes parents ont divorcé pendant cette période. en 1998. Aujourd'hui, ma soeur de 21 ans vit à Londres et celle de 16 ans va à un pensionnat en Amérique. Ma mère habite Londres et mon père partage son temps entre Monaco et Londres. Quant à moi, j'ai maintenant mon propre appartement à Holland Park. There you go, I'm a native speaker!
