The Judas of Woking

That slimy little bastard.

Adrian Newey, McLaren's technical director for the last eight years, moved to Red Bull today (thanks for the heads-up, Juan).

Newey was the brains behind the heady Hakkinen years, as well as Kimi's recent ascent.

One has to wonder what McLaren boss Ron Denis, pictured with Newey below, was thinking when he allowed this travesty to happen.

I mean, how hard is it to just throw cash at the guy? We know he's a whore--that is now beyond dispute. The issue is that though a whore he may be, he's also a great racecar designer.

Moreover, if McLaren goes to shite as some are predicting, how long will Kimi stick around? It's effing Silly Season in November.

On the other hand, I can't be all that worried. Like Mika Haitch, KR has the Gift of Speed, after all. That's not something a person can buy or learn, and it's not something that can be taken away. It's all in the genes. Read and learn:

"It is a circumstance not generally known, perhaps, that among seamen, Finns are regarded with peculiar superstition. For some reason or other which I could not get at, they are supposed to possess the gift of second sight, and the power to wreak supernatural vengeance upon those who offend them..."

It's a shame and a sin. Keep up the good work and never, ever quit.
