There are so many stats that shed a favorable light on Prost. Not only did he miss out by that half point in 1984, but he got screwed by the awful “Best of 11” points system in 1988, as he had more overall points than Senna, but one less win. Including ‘84 and ‘88, he finished second four times overall.

He finished on…

Exactly! He explicitly admitted to it and just shrugged it off. But Prost only won because he conspired with Balestre, if you believe the movie.

Once VW figures out the USA, then they’ll have a solid shot at taking the top slot from Toyota, But right now, that ain’t happening.

The great irony here is that Al Jazeera has become a more reliable and better informed news source, with more professionalism that just about any American broadcast outlet I can think of.

That pass broke Biaggi’s spirit versus Rossi...forever!

As my screen name mat attest to, I found the Senna movie to be a fucking coronation, not a documentary. And a hatchet job on Prost, an equally misunderstood and, I would argue, underrated driver.

I always thought I’d call the campaign “Take Back the Jack” since the First Navy Jack, traditionally flown by the oldest active, commissioned ship in the Navy, contains the snake. Some protesters even use it. Dumbasses.

Again, it does not mean what they think it means.

There needs to be some national campaign to take that flag back from the teabagging assholes. It does not mean what they think it means.

Don’t mess with the Dart! Okay, it’s not a GTS, nor even a GT, nor from the Sixties, but still...It’s no PT Cruiser!

Skip the COTD nominations. This right here goes to the front of the line for father of the year!

Twiggy? Dave, you must be old.

Ferdinand Piech is the most gangster auto executive out there. He is a no-holds-barred, backstabbing Machiavellian motherfucker of the most cunning kind. Just when you think he’s done something so dubious as to alienate everyone and leave himself out in the cold, he comes up aces.

The good name of Monsieur Prost has been sullied for far too long by the Senna-ites of this world.

Massive courage, work, dedication and oodles and oodles and oodles of cash. Just ask Minnesota how much the Hanlons burned through in making a couple of thousand bikes before going tango uniform 15 years ago or so.

I wonder if he ramped up too fast, anticipating that Hero would keep throwing its cash at him.…

Don’t worry, the automakers will gladly amplify and create new sounds to keep you happy in that department. ;>(

You actually like more about this car than I do. I’ll give them the see-through A-pillar, but that’s it.

Hey, Drew, thanks for stealing my life — dealing with lying kids shitting themselves (I swear that once you have kids, your entire life revolves around what comes out of them until…shit, I still don't know when that stops and the oldest just reached double digits), having to listen to "Back Off Bitch" a gajillion…

Too bad that crying Indian (Iron Eyes Cody) was actually born of Italian immigrant parents.

I agree.

You mean, like GM execs and decision makers who freely toss the badge around?
