David Merlini is his real name. Any resemblance to Merlin the magician is purely coincidental, but he is considered the spiritual heir of Harry Houdini, the legendary escape artist of the early 20th century, also born in Budapest, albeit 104 years earlier. A young Merlini started his professional daredevil career early at the age of 16 years, being strapped into a straitjacket and then suspended upside down under a burning rope 30ft above the ground...

It's a suspended 3-race ban. They ended up getting off lightly. Looks like Ron Dennis leaving F1 was part of the backroom negotiations though.

As much as I'm a fan of Seb Bourdais, I think Hartley (or even Bruno Senna) will replace him soon unless he figures out these cars very soon and scores some points. Piquet was really strong last week and he needs to build on that as well if he wants to keep that seat as well.

Speaking of Sebastian Bourdais, has anybody noticed how common his first name is in top-line motorsport? We already have Bourdais, Sebastien Vettel, Sebastien Buemi, Sebastian Loeb and Sebastian Ogier.
