So, as it appears that Liz got the job under
false pretences,
what happens next? Let's face it, anyone else
with false claims on their CV would be down
the JobCentre before you could say UB40.
In days of yore, if you wanted to claim this kingdom
was rightfully yours (or not) you'd turn up at Dover
with a BFO army and fight for the job. Given that wars
these days are now only normally fought by African
lunatics or religious despots (that's you George and Tony),
I don't think this is really King Mick's style.
Also I wonder how much legal control the Queen has over
the UK's armed forces these days either. So is this battle one
for the courts perhaps? Or maybe a duel or even a game of
It's a Knock Out?
Williams have deployed a very interesting approach to the
droopnose design used by most F1 cars recently. Something none of
the pictures I've seen so far show the full shapes of the
"tusks", you could create vortices and do some very
interesting airflow handling with these tusks.
Watch out for copycat designs from some other teams
very soon!
Then again the hammerhead nose could of course be an
elaborate spoof that doesn't actually function as well as a more
conventional nose on the FW26. The intent being to send rival teams
up a blind design alley in the coming weeks. Williams are a hard-nosed
straight forward operation so this is a little unlikely but we'll
find out for sure in Melbourne, in two months time.
