This weekend’s press saw the feverish coverage of Michael Gove’s cocaine taking exploits. Personally, I was amused by the two-decade old revelations, but really not that bothered. Part of me assumed that it was his competitors trying to scupper Gove’s PM aspirations, but another wondered if he was trying to make himself look a bit less dull by admitting to illegal activity. To be frank, who cares? Either way, I’d rather May stayed in power than see Gove start squatting in No.10 (though admittedly, his parties might be better).
Maybe Gove was going to be outed as a user/abuser and decided to take back control of his agenda. One thing is certain, there will be teachers everywhere delighted that they were right and that he has been publicly exposed as the arse they always knew he was.
Whilst Gove took drugs many years ago, someone else certainly appeared to be on something this weekend … and every bit as much of an arse. Sebastian Vettel’s petulance at losing the Canadian grand prix to Lewis Hamilton will go down in F1’s comedic history.
Vettel, under pressure from Hamilton, lost control of his car … again … and in trying to keep his lead, ran back on to the track from the grass and ran the risk of ramming Lewis into the wall. In doing so, Vettel earned himself a five second penalty and then he lost his temper … again.
Vettel ranted on the radio, refused to park his car in Parc Ferme (PF), marched through the Mercedes garage, moved Hamilton’s PF number 1 marker, huffed and puffed in the post-race room, walked away from media interviews and at all times bitterly complained about the penalty.
The media furore was all focused on the penalty but, in reality, what caused the whole silly circus was Vettel making another unforced mistake. Another reality is this - he may be a four-time world champion, but he is not of Lewis’ quality.
Gove may have taken drugs in the past but Vettel behaved like he had popped something mind altering in Canada. What an idiot, I hope that he is as embarrassed as Gove has been when he reflects upon it later.
