F1 ANNOUNCEMENTS SHOCK!

Sounds like the rest of the season is going to be interesting!

From http://www.sniffpetrol.com/index.html:

Following Michael Schumacher's sensational decision to announce his retirement at the end of the Italian Grand Prix, the FIA has decreed that from now on all F1 races must be followed by a really big announcement. "The Italian Grand Prix was fantastic," said one FIA mole. "I was literally on the edge of my seat with excitement towards the end of the race. Not because I was watching the track, obviously. No, my attention was captivated by our TV ratings monitor. It was brilliant. Instead of getting bored ****less as usual and going off to do something more interesting, TV audiences were forced to stay until the end of the race to hear what Schumacher was going to do. Thrilling stuff".
Insiders say the sport's governing body was so delighted with the performance of the Italian Grand Prix in all major TV monitoring criterion and advertising penetration studies that they plan to keep viewers hanging on in similar fashion at the remaining race this season and retain the technique for 2007. The only question is how they can find enough announcements to match the retirement of a seven times world champion.
"There's plenty of scope for new shock announcements," said one paddock insider. "One driver will announce that they're seriously ill, or the second placed driver will be instructed to announce that he's in love with whoever won the race. Or maybe one of the drivers will admit they're gay. Or not gay, in the case of you-know-who. Basically, we're going to hire a couple of writers off EastEnders and see what happens".
To find out more about this depressing new development Sniff Petrol tried to talk to Max Mosley but he'd gone off to penalise Fernando Alonso ten grid places for not having his shoe lace done up properly.

Eastenders is a UK soap-opera.

Funny as always.

Actually I'd welcome such announcements. Once a quarter Mad Max could tell the world the latest new rules to "save costs".
