That will from this day be known as "The Suck!" - lol

 

[Wastegate]

lol - most racing drivers are little guys, and anyone over 5'11" or 15 stone probably wouldnt have fitted in it. Maybe he could swap it for a '02 BAR, that was an overweight car.

Oh no, how embarrasing that must have been.....

It is emberrasing for sure, but what can he use that car for?
I don't think it is very usefull to go shopping with it, or drop the kids off at school. A normal man can't drive one mile in it before crashing it into something.

Only thing he can do with it is keeping it spotlessly clean, look at it and dream away every day or sell it to a museum.

It hasn't got an engine in it.

I've related this story before, but back in about 1995 or so I sat in Jean Alesi's 1990 Tyrrell.

I was a touch overweight at the time (probably 4-5 kg or so), but I'm 5'10 and fairly slim. I could get in, but I'm buggered if I know how Alesi could turn the wheel or change gears.

I would do whatever it took to lose the weight. Up to and including crystal meth.
