Johnson - I am now on the first flight to Southampton. I will then proceed to find you and will cut your phone line to stop you posting nudie pics of Briatore. I am deeply disturbed by how you have found this! What sort of websites do you frequent for crying out loud?! Actually, please don't answer that, we don't want to know! That picture is an afront to common decency and will be giving everyone the boke! [-X







BMW are go-didly-ne from F1!



And then we can link Peter Boyle to Mark Webber!

And controversially:



Max Mosley and Max von Sydow (he played the character Oktober in the Quiller Memorandum - an excellent film that everyone shold see). Please note I thought of the visual aspect first rather than the connection between Mosley's ancestors and the agency that the character Oktober worked for in the film before anyone raises that! [-X

Alonso


Man from dolmio sauce


I like the dolmio guy, always reminds me of Alonso. Except Mr dolmio seems a lit more cheery

i agree

Why is it racist if they look the same?

Is it racist if someone pairs a black person as a look-a-like for Hamilton, or a white person as a look-a-like for Webber?

It is racist because Kobay looks nothing like this "Monkey Magic" character, nor does LH look anything like Barack Obama... but some people tend to think that people of other races "all look the same"

there is absolutely no resemblence between Kobay & "Monkey Magic", except for the fact that they are of east asian descent

and anyway every thread comparing driver's results this year has been shut down but comparing them to cartoon characters seems to be Technical enough

In your opinion

Heikki Kovalainen

Terence Hill

Ross Brawn



Arnold Toht



....and an excuse to show a really good bad painting.

Disclaimer: I don't think Ross Brawn is a nazi.

No no!

Heikki definitively looks alike Beavis

Giblet,

Brilliant! I knew I have seen Ross Brawn somewhere before....as the SS officer in Raiders of the lost ark! I know see why Mercedes wanted him so badly

A bit obvious this one, but I thought I would anyways.

Gargamel

Kubica

Monkey Magic was awesome! That's brought back some childhood memories.

His daredevil attitude is also similar to Kobyashi on the track.

Kobayashi is my current fave driver by some distance!
I think he needs his own thread
Along the lines of "underrated"

Daddy Pig


Ross Brawn


And before anyone says it, is this post being pig-ist or anything? I'm not suggesting that Ross Brawn is a Pig, Policeman, Greedy, enjoys rolling in the mud, or snorts when he talks. This is merely a bit of fun to point out people in F1 who look like other people, characters, cartoons etc. No racism implied whatsoever.

For those of you who don't know, Daddy Pig is a cartoon character from the kids TV series called Peppa Pig, who not only looks a little like the great man, but he actually sounds a little bit like him too!

If I had posted any old picture of a random other person of east asian descent then yes, you MIGHT have a point (albeit a questionable one). The fact in this case is that I think that Kobayashi DOES look a bit like Monkey Magic, especially in the pictures I chose, where both were pulling funny faces.

As it happens, Lewis Hamilton is a dead-ringer for my nephew, but nobody on here is likely to know who he is, so posting a picture of him would not have been appropriate, but that too would not have been racist.

In fact, your accusation of racism could be construed as racist itself. Would you have cried racism if I had posted a picture of a well known white person who looks like an F1 Driver? I don't think so.
