Bollards ARE as exciting as Button

Bollards ARE as exciting as Button

Malaysia, Sunday. Italian bollard manufacturers have reacted angrily to Flavio Briatore comparing Jenson Button to their product, with the inference that bollards are dull.

We spoke today to Luigi Calva, secretary of the Italian Bollard Association (IBA), who told us that the roadside posts are easily as interesting as the Brawn GP megastar.

“They may not win Grand Prix, earn millions of dollars and they don’t often date Japanese underwear models, but bollards are still really interesting and we call on Mr Briatore to retract his comments for the sake of the industry”

We put the above to the Renault press office but have yet to receive a reply.
