    Sack the reactive bodyguards, and employ new pro-active ones. But if there Spanish ones designated to him......forget it;)

    Alonso must have been behind it.

    If it had been an American athlete, the sack would have had $250,000 in cash and jewelry.

    I read somewhere that the thieves dropped the sack and fled when they saw Michael Phelps approaching.

    It had to be Nicole Scherzinger's body guards that gave chase. I don't think Lewis has any guards nor does anyone care.

    i think it's Kimi & Kubica's fault, cos they didn't block those thieves.

    i don't see how that story leads you to that conclusion but whatever. sounds like a completely ordinary event except it happened to famous people.

    Holy cow!

    Here I was thinking Lewis was a little plunker and he has a hot girl like that! She is a certified dime-piece.

    Just goes to show you, it ain't man, it is the size of the wallet.

    personally i think it's more the combination of fame, wealth, and youth all put into one. i've heard he's a real stand-up guy in person too so than only sweetens the pot for the hunnies.

    It seems a bit like a coincidence because of what happened before with the racism thing but who knows exactly. You don't see Alonso getting robbed in Silverstone.

    Recently going from the Madrid airport to downtown, I had a pick-pocket attempt on the Metro.
    Grabbed the guy and smashed him into the tunnel wall.
    The place is rife with pick-pockets.
    Only place you see a cop is at traffic intersections or in front of government buildings.
    Pretty soon tourism will drop when everyone figures out Spain is a thieves den.

    Is she in need of a rich man then? I thought she would have done quite well for herself anyway.

    I need to get myself some money if that is the case :D
