iWitness in Singapore: Thursday

Is the pressure of superstardom forcing Nico Rosberg to go undercover? He arrived in the Singapore paddock this afternoon wearing huge black sunglasses and fake sideburns. A word of advice, Nico, from AT&T Williams’ very own undercover agent: take off the team shirt!

Or, was Nico simply trying to avoid the attention of Robert Kubica? Our man beat Robert in a high stakes poker game on the Monday after the Italian Grand Prix and rumour has it that the Pole isn’t a happy man…

It’s good to see Kazuki Nakajima getting into the spirit of things here. Yesterday he was photographed with Sir Jackie Stewart on a Dragon boat as part of an RBS PR event. While Kazuki used the opportunity to do some exercise in the form of rowing, Sir Jackie banged a drum at the front of the boat. No, JYS is not renowned for his musical ability.

Life begins at 40, right? Well, for David Webb, RBS’s head of sponsorship, his life seemed to be coming to an abrupt end on Wednesday night when he took Peter Philips and Liam Clogger on a reverse Bungee as part of his 40th birthday celebrations. As the guys pulled 5g on Singapore’s ‘ejector seat’, Webbo was heard screaming for his mother!
