"Dorset Council confirmed they were aware of the situation but that National Highways would deal with it. They said that the issue was a police matter, but when approached, police were unable to find any relevant information." dorsetecho.co.uk/news/267123…

"Cones have since been placed around it for safety."

Projective geometry.

Remembrance Sunday. Time to remember that a significant fraction of those people who used to speak in sombre tones about the purposeless slaughter of the First World War, have supported the UK spending 35 billion subsidising purposeless slaughter in Ukraine.

You can make a grammatical meatmonger sentence out of the driver three-letter abbreviations from Brazil FP1: BRO, BEG HER FOR HAM.

Like a resonant system without any damping.
We’re going to get Woke III and then we will get hitler

A fairly subdued set of highlights, which develops part of the dramatic Pond vs Lancia narrative, only to leave huge gaps in the narrative. It does, however, have the virtue of some peak Murray Walker, and some gripping scenes in the Lancia service area. youtube.com/watch?v=xZQ1U1Te…

The point about the Tees-Exe line is NOT that you draw a straight line; rather, the geological North/South divide of Britain is defined by following the line dividing the Triassic (pink) from the older rock. Middlesbrough is on Triassic rocks; like Exmouth, it's in the South.

You want to fit different rims for different compounds with different temperature working ranges; it's not just about changing rims between quali and the race.

Sharpitor, Dartmoor, looking south-east. Burrator reservoir and Plymouth Sound are visible towards the south. Previously the Cold War site of a Royal Observer Corps bunker, designed for the fallout monitoring in the event of Devonport being targeted in a nuclear war.

Looking north-west. St Michael's Church, Brentor, is visible as a conical protrusion on the horizon.

What an absolute joy and pleasure it is to have a weekend without a wretched Grand Prix. No delayed starts for rain, no timing issues, no deployment problems, no grid penalties, no investigations for an avoidable collision. Here's the White Lady waterfall at Lydford Gorge.

"Calibration" occurs 9 times here. Only a cynic would conclude that it's a new fuel specification which has made all the difference.
Red Bull's new #F1 engine has exceeded expectations this year - and there has been some impressive in-season progress too. Here is some fascinating insight from Red Bull's engine tech director Ben Hodgkinson on how it has become a winner, and why there is more to come. the-race.com/formula-1/key-g…

The start of the race has unfortunately been delayed by rain again.

Valley of the Stones at Little Bredy, second only to Valley of the Dolls on the list of valleys to visit. The sarsen sandstones, (quartz grains cemented with silica), are remnants in the base of a chalk valley of an eroded stratum. Not to be confused with Sarsons vinegar.
