That was one of the best overtakes I can remember seeing.

And it is HEAVING it down in Sao Paulo. Romain Grosjean's gone off into the wall on his lap to the grid. Hopefully we don't get a safety car start but I can't see anything else happening.

No, that was in a Single Race I did to try and improve my abilities. It didn't.

Don't forget the teams will be completely wiped in Season 3 so we'll need to start up the Hitmen again. I'm interested to see how useful the S2 cards will be once S3 starts as everything has seemed pretty vague so far.

I've started and am very much in the learning stages, I did manage to get a pole in one race but then completely over-reacted to weather changes during the race itself and the pole-sitter managed to limp home in 13th. Got my "above 14th" sponsorship bonus at least.

I was planning to get it on release day but now I've canceled and will wait for the usual 50-60% sale in six months time.

Batman episode 3:

This episode about a female president being welcoming to any alien wishing to call America their home is startlingly depressing in hindsight.

So did anyone else notice that this week's RingDom started a day early and finishes in 46 hours? Because I didn't and I'm annoyed. EDIT: Apparently it's a flash event and you get 8 picks per win. I'd imagine this ties into Season 3 starting very soon.

Oh I cannot wait to hear what Vettel is going to say after the race, particularly given what he's said during it (including telling Charlie Whiting to fuck off). The last few laps with Max, Vettel and Danny Ric was fantastic stuff. Aww, I was hoping they'd usher Seb into the podium room at the same time as Max and they could fight over the 3rd place cap.

Nothing really demeans the 2012 Olympic legacy of that stadium more than a bunch of idiots ripping out seats and throwing them at people because they support a different football team. It's just infuriating that this sort of garbage is still happening.

I've just heard Jay Ajayi speak. It's a wonderful mix of an American accent punctuated by random words like "Tackles" in a thick London accent.

I'm about to play my first ever MyTeam game. This will also be the first NBA2K game I've ever played as the whole team and not just as my pro. Wish me luck! I got disconnected, But I was losing 20-6 inside 4 minutes at the time. I like to think the game knew what it was doing when it gave me a 76ers kit. Room for improvement! Lost my first full game 76-49. I actually was 18-13 up after the first quarter, but his bench consisted of Damien Lillard, Klay Thompson and Lamarcus Aldridge, mine consists of Raul Neto, Chris LeVert and Georgios Papagiannis, so it soon faded away. Also he has Steph Curry who is apparently unable to miss any 3 pointer.

That podium was great with Gerard Butler, although that poor Mercedes girl chose the wrong day to wear a black bra. Race was so-so, it is kinda amusing that Danny Ric's race was pretty much inadvertently ruined by his team-mate.

My career guy just had a text conversation about WWE 2K17. I feel dirty.

I had no idea that WME-IMG were going to be so ruthless, but they've pretty much sliced through all the long-standing UFC executives from the Zuffa era including Garry Cook and Marshall Zelaznik to bring in their own guys. I know it's business but most of the top people they've fired are the people who opened MMA up in places like Toronto, Australia and Europe and a little bit of loyalty wouldn't have gone amiss.

I'm glad it's not just me, the amount of times I get frustrated about first time passes and shots not happening, as well as the amount of times my players chest the ball down instead of heading it, is becoming far too frequent.

The new Premier League graphics are making my eyes hurt.

EA have been heavily promoting the first Goals of the Week for the year... Which just leaves me wondering; Why would you want to advertise how horrifically unrealistic your simulation game can be?

In case anyone's wondering that edition is retailed at $99.99. I fear for those who decide to purchase it.

Oh I agree, but I've always had it out for King more than most because British drivers have mostly not been pay drivers and every opportunity he's had (including an hour long documentary on Sky covering his career, all two years of it) are because he has the financial advantages. It's possible I might be more annoyed because of the changes to the Nectar Points scheme in recent years.

Congratulations to Jordan King, his daddy's money has finally got him a practice session seat with Manor in Texas.

Is Josh Norman really that much of a difference-maker? Because the Panthers look absolutely terrible.

I have to disagree about the SBCs, for me at least they've been a complete waste of time and coins. I put a load of effort and resources into getting one of the squads completed and got a Mario Gotze as reward in one of my packs, but I don't play with a CAM and I don't have a Bundesliga team, so I have no use for it. Except all SBC rewards are seemingly untradeable, so I have a 10k player sitting in my club doing nothing instead of funding what I actually want and everything I put into the squad has been lost. That and trying to actually complete any limited squad these days is impossible for anyone but the already richest players.
