Nico Rosberg and Lewis Hamilton, team-mates for a couple of seasons in karting, were reunited today. They swapped stories for German TV station RTL, discussing who was quicker – Nico, natch… – their favourite holidays and haircuts. “Let me introduce you to my friend with the Afro haircut,” began Nico. Brotherly love, eh?

Lewis definitely had the better suntan of the two, having spent the 10-day break since the Malaysian Grand Prix on the island of Ko Samui in Thailand. Nico returned home to Monaco after Sepang and the Principality wasn’t basking in its 300 days a year of sunshine.

The tartan terrors are back with AT&T Williams this weekend. Sir Fred Goodwin, chief executive of the Royal Bank of Scotland Group, Sir Jackie Stewart and Peter Philips are all wearing the RBS tartan troos - in a team owned by two Englishmen.

Is there a conference for retired AT&T Williams drivers in Bahrain? Jacques Villeneuve, Riccardo Patrese, Heinz-Harald Frentzen and Martin Brundle are all wandering the paddock, either driving in the SPEEDCAR support race or working for television. Please drop by for a good old English cuppa, guys.
