After 30 YEARS as a fairly honest lawman... Our introduction to Rosco.

Unlike yesterday, today's race in Brazil had a dry track. After a bad qualifying session, Max Verstappen decided to start from the pit lane. The top five got off the line in order, but a few positions changed behind them. Sadly for the local fans, Gabriel Bortoleto had contact with Lance Stroll on the opening lap and had to retire. Lewis Hamilton also damaged his car trying an overtake Franco Colapinto, and it eventually resulted in his retirement at roughly half distance. The accidents caused a safety car. At the restart on lap five, Lando Norris again kept the lead, but Oscar Piastri came up the inside and knocked Kimi Antonelli into Charles Leclerc earning himself a 10-second penalty and a retirement for Charles. Max made good progress in the early laps, but had to pit early with a suspected puncture while under the virtual safety car. At the checkered flag, Lando claimed victory over Kimi by 10 seconds, but Kimi was less than half a second ahead of Max who drove an amazing race. George Russell finished fourth with Oscar in fifth and a great result for Haas with Oliver Bearman in sixth. You can see the race highlights here. After taking wins in both races this weekend, Lando now leads the drivers' championship by 24 points with three races to go. We've got a 2-week wait until the next race in Las Vegas.

The F1 championship is probably going to look quite different after today's Brazilian Grand Prix, but first the sprint race and qualifying. Championship leader Lando Norris took pole for yesterday's sprint race with rivals Oscar Piastri and Max Verstappen in third and sixth. Mercedes drivers Kimi Antonelli and George Russell were second and fourth, and Fernando Alonso put his Aston Martin in fifth. The track was wet from earlier rain, but all drivers started on dry weather tires. The top four got away in order, but behind them Max made up a place and Lewis Hamilton made up three from 11th. On lap 6, Oscar had a spin and hit the barrier, followed by Nico Hulkenberg and Franco Colapinto all at the same corner. That brought out a red flag. Lando held first at the restart to the checkered flag, but came under pressure from Kimi in the last few laps. Behind them, Charles Leclerc got past Fernando for fifth. Local driver Gabriel Bortoleto had a bad crash with about a lap to go, so the race finished under a yellow flag. Lando's win increased his lead to nine points. You can see the highlights here. In qualifying for today's race, Red Bull tried to improve their performace from the sprint race, but went backwards with both drivers out in the first session. Max and Yuki Tsunoda will start 16th and 19th. Lewis Hamilton was eliminated in the second session and will start 13th. Lando was quickest in all three sessions and will start from pole. Kimi, who was runner-up in the sprint race, will start in second with Charles in third and Oscar in fourth. Red Bull's junior team, RB, had a much better qualifying with Isack Hadjar in fifth and Liam Lawson in seventh. Oliver Bearman also did well with his Haas starting eighth. Qualifying highlights are here. It may be tomorrow before I get to post the race review.

Jesse thought that Black Tillie II had the VAPORS.

It appears that Cathy was photographed walking her dog in LA on Monday 3rd November, so that's good news.

You obviously missed my recent post here. Nedra played Pearl the bail bondswoman in five episodes of the final season.

I've finally got up to near the end of season 5 of 'The Fall Guy', and I'd completely forgotten this post. Here are a few screengrabs. After Dukes, they sprayed a few bits silver and added a flame thrower. Howie also added remote control. In its last scene it crashes into an International Transtar and appears to get damaged by the impact, but it can't be conclusively seen in the resulting explosion and fire. 'War on Wheels' was Nedra Volz's last 'Fall Guy' episode.

I'm not into horror movies, so I've never seen them. Thanks for letting us know.

I didn't know that. I guess Halloween and cricket both involve bats, but one has vampires and the other has umpires!

Limo One ran out of FUEL.
