It was nice to see someone actually overtake under braking and Hungary is one of the best tracks to work around the battery issues. Ferrari blew it again of course and Oscar was very unlucky as he looked to be managing his pace well until Ferrari forced his hand. Would have been interesting to see how it played out between just the 2 McLaren's though I think Lando had the pace to overcut eventually. Lewis can moan all he likes about the penalty but it if your speeding there's no defence. He's reminding very much of Schumacher in his final Ferrari year. Pace is there often but making lots of errors. Looks like Antonelli very much has this season under control if he takes more of a Prost/Brabham approach in the 2nd half. Collect the pointa and when you can, win whilst going as slowly as possible.

I have just been having a discussion about wish lists and regrets on live music so thought it might be interesting to see what others might have to contribute on this. Who are you top 10 bucket list artists to see perform live that you still haven't and who are your top 10 that you regret not seeing but no longer can. For the former it has to still be possible - i.e. not dead or split up and still performing live regularly. For the latter it has to be reasonable that you could have seen them - i.e. you were old enough when they were still around. Let's say old enough to go on your own so at least 15 years old (which rules out Queen for me) Here's my lists (not in any order) - Bucket list 01 Joan Jett 02 Rammstein 03 Nine Inch Nails 04 Slipknot 05 Napalm Death 06 Taylor Swift 07 Bob Dylan 08 Public Enemy 09 Betty Boo 10 Tori Amos Regrets 01 Prince 02 Siouxsie & the Banshees (did see Siouxsie solo though) 03 R.E.M. 04 Motorhead 05 The Smiths (did see Morrissey's infamous Madstock show) 06 Black Sabbath 07 Soundgarden 08 The Pogues 09 Danielle Dax 10 Fleetwood Mac

Many faves been mentioned already but R Dean Taylor - Indiana Wants Me Perry Como - Delaware Doors - Alabama Song Conway Twitty & Loretta Lynn - Lousiana Woman, Mississippi Man (thanks GTA Vice City!) Roxy Music - Virginia Plain Dre & 2pac - California Love

I can't be bothered to list them all but Prince released 37 studio albums between 1978 and 2015, averaging 1 per year. This neglects to factor in the stacks of unreleased material from this period. This number does not include the cancelled Black Album or any compilations or live recordings. It should also be noted that several are double albums or more.

The Cramps - Can Your Pussy Do The Dog?

David Bowie - Cat People The Cure - All Cats Are Grey Ted Nugent - Cat Scratch Fever Jack Off Jill - My Cat Taylor Swift - Karma (mentions cats) Just domestic cats? Otherwise Mud - Tiger Feet The Tokens - The Lion Sleeps Tonight All Seeing I - Walk Like A Panther Survivor - Eye of the Tiger Pink Floyd - When The Tigers Broke Free (technically referring to tanks)

Eau Rouge isn't that same challenge as it once was, for sure but the rest of the circuit was still mighty. Now it is all taken way too far from the limit

Aston were 1.5 seconds slower in FP2. Worst of all though is that the cars are around 5 seconds a lap slower this year compared to last and you can really see it through the corners. I thought Suzuka and Silverstone were bad to watch the cars through the corners but I can only imagine the frustration the drivers are having in the cockpit at what should be one of the greatest challenges they face all season.

Most of the early singles by The Smiths fit here for me.

Who football fans around the world are cheering on later -

Personally, on the issue of whether or not the card was justified as a red, I'm pretty ambivalent. I've seen many given for less and worse not given but whether the red card itself was incorrect or not is totally irrelevant. Wrong calls happen in sport and always have. it's not great and it sucks to be on the receiving end but the moment you allow political figures to dictate how the World's bigest sport is governed you threaten the very integrity of the game. The sport should be run indenpendently of any country's leader's opinions and the implementation of a 'review and suspension' of the ban is hitherto unheard of in the game and a very dangerous path to tread.

USA should be thrown out of the tournament. It's not the team or the players fault but there are rules governing political interference that have been enforced before. This is as clear cut a case of political pressure to manipulate the system as you can get and disqualifications is the correct avenue. Ain't goona happen. I feel sorry for Balogun being in the middle of this but the right thing to do, whether the decision is his, Pochettino's or whoever, is to not name him in the side. Ain't gonna happen either. This World Cup Finals is tainted more than ever before.

That was my point. You can't complain about rules not being followed and then complain when they are. You can suggest the rules need looking at though but that's a complaint about the rules themselves, not how they're interpreted.

A quirk of the pitlane apparently led to them not realising he'd passed the SC during his stop.
