Didn't smart have a cabrio version of its fortwo here in the US? So why can't this happen? The smart may not have been a kei-type car, but it's still SMALL... The S660 could be that car that American urbanites could possibly look into as an alternative to other small city cars available here.

So, Honda, yes there is…

Not much you can do about that. People risk their lives for the stupidest reasons sometimes, and this is one of those instances where people were sat in a supposedly safe place but the car somehow somersaulted over the catch fence and landed right next to them or ON them.

If I saw that car coming at us like that, I…

UPDATE: From the added video, looks like that the car did a Mark Webber taking off from the Flugplatz. Holy crap.

Obviously, from the update and the mention of chairs in a restricted section of the spectator area, people decided to risk their lives just to be five feet closer to the action. Always heed the safety…

Hope not. F1 is in Malaysia, which is similar to Japan in that it's almost always rainy there. We know what happened to Jules Bianchi in Japan. #JB17.

Maybe it's just me, but #1 doesn't really count as a pass, does it? He has too much speed going into the corner after the pass and nails the disabled car in the corner, and the video stops after that, but it looks to me like the passer came to a stop after the collision.

My father has owned many fun cars over the years and never once bought a "family mobile" just because he was married or had kids. The wife gets the family mobile.

It's Paul's money, right? He should be able to do whatever he wants with his own money. No sense in having TWO "family mobiles" in the household.

I will probably (unlikely) have a hard time telling Nissan's LMP1 from Porsche's red LMP1... unless Nissan's livery was not a final version...

and chips and cola!

Tommy, like I said, if you exclude regional and support series stats, Danica is the only one who's won a race. Granted, fuel strategy wins are still wins in my book. But compared over their entire careers, yes, de Silvestro and Legge have more wins than Danica. As for Carmen Jorda, I never mentioned her. The poster I…

I'm saddened by this whole thing. We were such fans of the show, that when we get a new kitten, we decided to name him Stig, and in the days following, I made up Stig facts in much the same way Clarkson did: "Some say he has the eyes of a cat.... and that he speaks... by meowing."

I absolutely loved the ambulance…

When is Danica NEVER angry? WHile i do think she's attractive in her own right, she just looks like she's scowling all the time.

One of her rare smiles:

In other words, zero wins to their names. If we exclude drag racing and regional motorsport series, Danica is the only lady who has won a race, in IndyCar. Though, I'd not be sad to be wrong about this, either.

What, no Susie Wolff?

Safer way to do a barrel roll:
1. Go to google.com
2. enter "Do a barrel roll"
3. ???
4. Profit?

It's going to look like a cross between a P1 in the front and a 12C in the rear, i guarantee it.

Clarkson... Jalopnik's British cousin.

Top Gear: China? Good lord, imagine him trying to be his curmudgeony self... in Chinese!

Yes, but wasn't Stig Jeremy's idea?

Tonight... Jeremy finds unemployment boring.

I hear Top Gear USA is hiring...
