Bibendum should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Alan McNish: Right to the point.

Well...! I was delighted that ABC in the US used the Berniefeed to cover Canada, because otherwise we would not have been privy to poor McNish's response to spinning and being unable to engage a gear. Actually, he had an old Anglo-Saxon descriptive for said unobtainable gear, the root word of which I believe is something like fickke. Anyway, his frustration was our good fortune, because this moment of clarity stripped away some of the veneer of "niceness" (ugh) from the spectacle, in that it debunks the pretense that everyone is always completely restrained and modulated and family-values oriented (god, I loathe that term).

Come to think of it, JPM apparently gave a similar insight earlier in Sepang, but I did not hear the feed then.
