The Williams F1 team are really getting into the spirit of the World Cup and have placed a flag of St George on the roof of their pit wall communication centre, which they hope to keep there for the weekend… or at least until an official with taste spots it.
However, there was shock during first practice when the team found that when the flag was fitted to the car it actually made it go quicker and as there seemed to be nothing in the rules against chav flags on cars they decided to fit a brace each to Rubens Barrichello’s and Nico Hulkenbergs FW32’s.
Unfortunately, neither the Brazilian or the German wanted to play ball (no pun intended) and refused to drive with the England emblem on the car. They did however agree, that if England reached the World Cup Final, to be held the same day as the British Grand Prix, that they would allow the flags on the cars.
Don’t hold your breath…
