From the Pulpit

Flashback 18 months, to the summer of 2004. David Coulthard is not happy. Okay, he has won 13 Grands Prix and has stood on countless Grand Prix podiums - and he is, of course, a wealthy man. He has a gorgeous girlfriend, too - a Brazilian model, no less, who goes (no, make that sashays) by the exotic name of Simone Abdelnour.
But, on the other hand, he is in the last knockings of his ninth and last season for McLaren-Mercedes, and his F1 future does not look bright. What's more, he knows it.
