There have been a few 'favourite comedian' threads lately, I'd like to put forward DC as a candidate, his latest 'work' can be seen here, made me laugh on a wet Friday morning.

Mark Webber has given the impression that he would rather have David Coulthard as his BMW Williams team mate than Antonio Pizzonia in 2005.

Well, like the old racing saying goes. "You have to beat your team mate first". Well Mark obviously wants a slower team mate to make him look like a superstar and knows DC's just the man for job.

HE is 'aving a laff, no other driver has had such plum drives and consistantly failed to deliver. I realise he is talented or he wouldn't have got where he is today, however he has not fulfiled his potential nor faith the team managers have put int him.
Have you ever noticed, Martin Brundle is his manager at present, but even if you didn't know that little fact, you could have easily surmised it from his race commentary .

as DC hold's a british passport, he therefore is better than any other of the drivers in f1, except m. schumacher and button

what's wrong with you all - why do you want some foreign numpty driving the williams?

i can't see pizza boy getting the drive as he slagged off jag and mark 'my best place is fifth overall' webber.

So does Webber think Pizzonia ISN'T slower than him?

Williams need an established driver in the other car, otherwise we'll never really know if Webber is as good as he's cracked up to be. DC would make a good yardstick (NB. not dipstick) - if Webber is consistently 3 tenths quicker than DC in qualifying then it'll be just like DC against Mika or Kimi.

Qualifying was 8 - 3 in Webbers favour when they spent most of 2003 together at Jaguar, so Pizzonia can be quicker, sometimes. He'll just think Coulthard's slower that Pizzonia, thus making him look amazingly quick

I think you'll find that next year is DC's year.

I mean, he says it every year, so it has to be true eventually.

I think he should start a family myself as it will be a few generations before that comes true .

Maclaren were right to have DC in.

He is clearly capable and experienced but also makes a perfect number 2 driver without the need to publicly announce it or have to use team orders.

He's been clearly slower than the Mika or kimi yet can pick up useful points for the team when in a competitive car.

A lot like Ruebens really.

No way! Rubens has been up against MS and put in some decent performances. If DC had been at Ferrari the only time he'd ever have seen MS during a race was when he was being lapped.

Big Suprise News - Coulthard shows off his new drive for 2005 and it's a MacLaren.

Just heard Webber on 5Live say that he was team-mate with Pizzonia at Jaguar and it didn't work out, but that Williams 'see him in a different light, which is strange to say the least'. Your handbag sir...

I don't agree about Barichello. Given the chance he can be a very good driver, I just think he's become too comfortable as Schumacher's wing man. Remember the wet/dry British GP? Barichello was awesome, so he's got it in him.
