Before we begin: Yes it’s been over a month since my last op-ed piece but don’t worry SJ Skids gives me enough crap about it for all of you so let’s not get hung up on these “technicalities” and move forward with the article, okay?
Moving right along then…

I actually double checked the date on this piece because I thought we’d all pretty well put this one to bed. Apparently not.
It looks like Lewis Hamilton is having to re-live his Australian “liegate” affair at least one more time, perhaps — I’m sure he’s hoping…

Earlier today, I conceived of this post as a companion piece / counterpoint to Victoria’s piece on Michael Schumacher’s return.
My headline played off hers: Why Schumacher will return (but I hope he won’t).
I guess I should have posted it when I had the chance, instead of letting…

As if the arrival of his first son wasn’t enough, Felipe Massa has another piece of exciting news before seeing out the year and the decade. The Brazilian will return to the wheel of Ferrari’s 2007 car in Italy this week in order to ‘make the most’ of his time at the team’s headquarters.

OK folks, this is totally a mid-week piece of fun.
