Someone in Shanghai has it in for Sebastien!

Look at this. Poor old Sebastien Buemi, the young Swiss driver, was speeding round the Shanghai circuit at 200 mph when - whoops! - both his front wheels flew off. What the devil is going on?

Do you think perhaps that someone in the Toro Rosso garage has it in for the Swiss? The Swiss after all have quietly hoovered up confict monies over many years, built up an enviable banking industry and a jolly comfortable country with the cash while not doing terribly much else at all.

Meanwhile, a volcano has blown its top in Iceland and crippled aviation in the United Kingdom, the country which was almost single handedly responsible for bankrupting Iceland a year ago.

This, it seems, is the weekend of the reckoning. My advice is stay indoors if you have reason to fear having upset anyone in the past.
