Here We Again

Beastley Boys - No Sleep ‘Till Bahrain

Let me tell you a tale and this is the truth
But this ‘aint a story of disaffected youth
Some people are still taking down Christmas decorations
While we bust a gut with our season preparations

No sleep ‘till Bahrain
No sleep ‘till Bahrain
No sleep ‘till Bahrain
No sleep at all

At this time of the year
Let me be clear
We don’t have a moment for a bottle of beer
We ain’t been to the bar
At least so far
We’ve been up all night building the car

No sleep ‘till Bahrain
No sleep ‘till Bahrain
No sleep ‘till Bahrain
No sleep at all

We don’t have a sponsor and we haven’t got a backer
We can’t even afford *Ralf* Schumacher
Our new driver’s learnin’
His talent is emergin’
But we’ve just been passed by Di Grassi in a god dam Virgin

No sleep ‘till Bahrain
No sleep ‘till Bahrain
No sleep ‘till Bahrain
No sleep at all

We are only just ready
I think we’ve packed everything
But last year we forgot to pack a 3rd spare front wing
Our wind tunnel’s broke we’re running out of hope,
F1 turned from being a dream to being a nightmare/joke

No sleep ‘till Bahrain
No sleep ‘till Bahrain
No sleep ‘till Bahrain
No sleep at all

A faster engine wanted
But we are short of a million quid
So I guess we’ll be at our usual place
At the back of the grid

No sleep ‘till Bahrain
No sleep at all
No sleep ‘till Bahrain
No sleep at all

With all the pain and tension
We don’t do this for fun
But if there’s a consolation
At least we’re not USF1

F1's Back

Gareth Jones On Speed - F1’s Back 2010
F1’s back for 2010
Rosberg was “Man Friday” again.
The rest of the pack needed mollifying
By Vettel, the quickest in qualifying.

Is Schumi too old has he left it too late?
Or can the Silver Baron make it Championship viii

  It was really well weird seeing Lotus on the grid
But nowhere near as odd as seeing Schumacher’s lid

Virgin lost their cherry but got stuck in the muck
Branson in a pickle, and out of luck.
Senna was there and Chandhock made the start
But frankly their car is a bit of a cart.

Oh the Prancing Horses looked darned quick
But if Alonso’s named Champion; I’ll be sick.
