Who is this asshole, also known as the Sliding Tuga?

Katayama or Inoue ? I can't decide, those slow japanese all look the same.

Never saw that one coming

Got one for you.... 2 questions in one.

Brazil 2003, Officials thought Raikonnen had won after the count back after the race had been stopped after Webber and Alonso crashed heavily but it was really Fisichella in the Jordan who had won, So the trophy exchanged hands at the next race Imola.

Hmmm no, they hadn't really "won" the trophy there. I'm talking about a case where the trophy was correctly won, collected, but got lost in the way and didn't make it to McLaren's museum.

Hint: It happened in the heat of the Prost-Senna war

Hmmm Ain't a clue then, Japan 88? At a guess.

Was that at Monza 1989 when Prost gave his trophy to the crowd ?

Yes

Dennis threw the constructor's trophy to Prost's feet in anger and Prost picked and lowered it to the crowd, where someone ran away with it, that's what Rubython's book about Senna says.

But I'm nopt so sure if it was the driver's trophy after seeing this footage (Min. 7.54): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wxLiBo61s3U

In any case McLaren keeps all trophies won by its drivers (Remember the fuss with Hamilton about it when he left?) and Ron was really annoyed by that

IIRC didn't Prost get a replica made for him many many years later?

Maybe so, but the original was lost forever and isn't in McLaren's museum, even if they later placed there a copy

Who managed to cross the finish line and get third place over the car's roof? (Yes, upside down, sliding over the roof)

In Nascar? I know Rusty Wallace did it once at Daytona or Talladega, can't remember which.

Is that Tiago the point thief?

Want a duel for that point?

You do realize I live in Texas and have a concealed hand gun permit...and a closet full of shootin irons

The law has changed in there, you should give your weapon to the authorities

And I was talking about a racing duel, not guns
