Webber causes brain pain in Spain

Webber causes brain pain in Spain

Spanish Grand Prix winner, Mark Webber, may have thought that lobbing his helmet into the crowd after the race was a good thing but it has landed him in trouble, after his lid whacked an unsuspecting fan right on the… noggin.

Local man, Antonio Fargus, 23, was busy working out new racist chants with his mates when the 1.2 kilo helmet knocked him for six and earned him a trip to Barcelona General. Worse still, somebody else pinched the prized piece of memorabilia which will no doubt be on eBay’s Spanish site by the end of the day.

Fargus has already been contacted by ‘Injuries ‘r’ us’ who on a no-win-no fee basis, expect to sting Webber and his insurance company for ‘literally tens of euros’, while others in the grandstand applauded the aussie, saying the incident was the only exciting thing to have happened all afternoon.
