Grosjean going back over old ground

After losing his place in Formula 1 after just seven races, Romain Grosjean returned to place he earned his chance a year ago. Mark Glendenning muses over his GP2 comeback

Welcome back,
Your dreams were your ticket out.
Welcome back,
To that same old place that you laughed about.
Well the names have all changed since you hung around,
But those dreams have remained and they're turned around.
Who'd have thought they'd lead ya (Who'd have thought they'd lead ya)
Back here where we need ya (Back here where we need ya)

Unless TV stations in Geneva did a mean line in early-1970s American sitcoms, it's pretty likely that Romain Grosjean has never heard the theme music to 'Welcome Back, Kotter'. (To avoid being pensioned prematurely, I should point out that I only caught the repeats myself).
