F1:
Homegrown fined for being late
by Virgil Ellipse
22nd Aug 2008
Miss Scherzinger comforting, erm..., well, someone else, clearly.
McLap'em
's
Lewis Homegrown
was fined 5000 euros for being late for Thursday's drivers' press conference, ahead of the European Grand Prix.
His failure to arrive on time for the press conference was deemed to be a breach of Article 35.1 of the
FIEh?
Formula One Sporting Regulations (Non-
Ferrarsi
Version).
A spokesman explained that the reason for Homegrown's tardiness was that he had been left physically drained after being enthusiastically consoled by his girlfriend, the "singer" Nicole Scherzinger, over the theft of his bags from a hotel in Malaga earlier in the week.
