For those of you interested in the technological side of F1, my chum Kit Chapman, a most engaging science historian, has just written this book:
By chance he is also speaking at the Royal Institute on Monday 8 March. Tickets still available.

A tree in next door's front garden came down on top of the car belonging to a builder working on the house next door but one. Luckily nothing more than a couple of scratches. The builders whipped out a power saw and the tree was quickly dismantled and stowed away.
Other than that, it's been a bit of a damp squib.

Among the more disturbing videos to emerge from the day of Englandβs
defeat by Italy in the final of Euro 2020 was one filmed in Leicester
Square. Charlie Perry, a 25-year-old Chelsea fan, gained notoriety as
a large group cheered raucously as he snorted a white powder in broad
daylight.Perry was later pictured with a lit flare placed between his buttocks.
βI was off my face and I loved every minute,β he told The Sun.Perry was not alone in his revelry. The Athletic heard several
episodes of flagrant drug use in the close vicinity of Wembley as
thousands of fans β many without tickets β congregated in the capital
in the countdown to kick-off. Violence and social disorder were later
commonplace as fans stormed entry points at Wembley, clashing with
overrun stewards.Remember, you are Chelsea and Chelsea is style

We deserve penalties
And you got them. Excellent penalties by both sides. Enjoyed that.
Goalkeepers rarely save penalties, particularly well taken penalties. Shoot outs are more often won by players missing. Am I correct in noticing an improvement in penalty taking of late? As more games are decided by penalties, are players training more to take them?
