1 I knew you'd like it :-) Pit babes is one of the few things that F1 does better than ChampCars or IRL. In a way, they are a deleghtful throwback to the days when sex was safe and motor racing was dangerous (to borrow from an F1 driver whose name I forgot). You can guess I do "heh" every time when Steven writes that chick drivers of silly cars which can't turn are somehow cool. And now, the Japanese angle!

I am completely desensetised to the teeth though, the thought to pun on them did not even occur to me. I follow a blog of this charming young lady:

I think all Japanese girls who smile deserve a very big credit, and I would not want them to be sulky like the majority of their compatriots just because their parents didn't think it necessary to put them through hurtful alignment procedures.
