After the 2010 British Grand Prix, Sebastian tried his hand at playing guitar for the first time to a live audience. He played a couple of bars of Deep Purple’s ‘Smoke on the Water’. His announcement before playing cracks me up:
Seb: “Don’t expect too much! First of all, I’m German. Secondly, I’m not good at playing the guitar!”
The following year, at the same venue at Silverstone, Seb played the same song again in front of an audience where he noticeably improved. His quip before playing returned:
Seb: I’ll tell you, if I’m rubbish, it’s not my fault. It’s the guitar’s fault! …So come off with the excuses!”
The look on Christian Horner’s face when Seb gets the right chords on the first try is priceless!
So, Eddie Jordans recommendation for Lewis is to go to ferrari?
Uhm excuse me, I am... this is a little bit funny for me because Eddie Jordan said something like: “F1 needs to see Lewis in a ferrari and Ferrari needs Lewis.”
Did I see a different type of f1? Did I hallucinate when I saw throughout this whole years all the mistakes that ferrari made?

I bought a book called “Win Without War: How To Avoid Litigation” by Clive Zeitman. When I noticed that former F1 lawyer Nigel Tozzi QC wrote the forward, I thought to myself, “OK, how long before this book covers the story of Eddie Jordan and Vodafone*?”
* - Eddie Jordan was in 2003 looking for a big sponsor to save his team. He thought he’d found one with Vodafone offering $150 million over the course of 4 years. This proved not to be the case and, to avoid spoiling the book, I’m not going to tell you why just yet ;)
Second page of Chapter 2.
I’m sure EJ will not mind his cautionary tale being spread in an effort to raise money for pancreatic cancer (all proceeds from the book are going to Pancreatic Cancer UK)...
→ Spa 1998, but it starts after the red flag and it’s just Murray Walker being proud of Jordan/Team Silverstone’s hard work securing a 1-2 with Damon Hill
