Went to the Goodwood Festival of Speed over the weekend. The grinning idiot on the left you might recognise from my profile. That's right, it's me. The dashing Finn on the right you might or might not recognise, depending on your degree of interest in motorsport, as Marcus Gronholm, world rally champion in 2000 and 2002. Inset is his 2006 Focus WRC. Bloody hell! Note how tall Marcus is - I'm not exactly miniature at 6ft2, and he's towering over me! The rest of the day, a birthday present to my petrolhead father, was brilliant, including seeing my brother (who took these shots) as a giant on the big screen, listening to a McLaren F1 car starting up five feet from us, and watching Jenson Button tearing up the strip in his Honda, completely obscuring the opposition. Fantastic day...
