Horner on sneaking into Silverstone to meet F1 legends

Christian Horner’s passion for racing once led the Red Bull team boss to skip school to sneak into Silverstone circuit to watch a day of F1 testing at the British track.

As a young karter with a big dream back in 1991, Horner closely followed Grand Prix racing and earmarked on his calendar an F1 tyre test at Silverstone a month before the British Grand Prix.

On the morning of Horner’s D-day, the young aspiring champion got behind the wheel of his fake Porsche/real VW Beetle, purposefully steered clear of his school and made his way to Silverstone for an unforgettable experience.

    Horner admits Red Bull RB16 ‘still misbehaving’

“With the British Grand Prix up next, I was remembering back to 1991 and one of my earliest F1 memories,” he told the Red Bull website.

“I had not long had a driving licence and had an imitation Porsche that was really a Beetle, with a Porsche spoiler on the back and exhausts out of the side.

“Back then, Goodyear were the tyre suppliers and they used to do two days of testing at Silverstone around a month before the British GP.

“I had been to Silverstone previously to see Johnny Herbert in a Formula 3 car, I’d also seen Eddie Irvine in Formula Ford, but this was the first time I saw an F1 car driving around the circuit.

“So I sneaked a day off school and instead of driving there, I drove to Silverstone. I managed to find a hole in the fence and made it into the pit lane. Having got in there, I definitely wasn’t going to leave.”

Not only did he not leave, the future team principal got a lot more what he had bargained for.

“I managed to get in front of the Williams garage, who had developed a phenomenally quick car that Nigel Mansell was testing — which would have been one of Adrian [Newey’s] cars.

“I met Nigel and he was very generous with his time. I then went to the back of the pits and I bumped into Ayrton Senna.

“We stood face-to-face and he saw the jacket I was wearing, which was from one of the karting teams that I drove for. He recognised the kart manufacturer and started asking me about karting.

“So not only had I seen Nigel, who was my boyhood hero, I also met this other icon in Senna.

“So driving home in my Volkswagen Beetle, I was over the moon. It did not help my A Levels, but I had a great day!”

Ric Flair Speaks The Rock And Dusty Rhodes

Ric Flair spoke with NBC Sports Radio and Here are some of the highlights from The Nature Boy:
 
Being an Influence on The Rock:

 “I think he’ll admit that a lot of me was him,” Flair said. “I don’t know how many Rolex watches I’ve sold for Rolex from guys buying their first Rolex. I can remember Randy Orton got his first big check with Evolution. The first thing he bought was a new tricked out diamond encrusted Rolex, so I know that I’ve done some damage. I think a lot of guys have become more wardrobe-conscious. Does that make sense? Looking the part all of the time as opposed to when you’re in the gym. Every time you walk into a door, you want everybody in the joint to look at you. That’s just what it is.”

Being Competitive With Dusty Rhodes:
“That all came off the top of my head. We’d be out in Atlanta [Georgia] all night long, back at the hotel around 5 a.m., change clothes, and go to the studio and start taping at 9 o’clock. That’s just a lot of coffee and a lot of liking what I was doing for a living, being surrounded by guys like Dusty and Arn [Anderson] and guys that had so much influence on me. And we went out there and we competed with each other. Does that make sense? If Dusty was out there first, I knew I had to follow that. If I was on first and Dusty had to follow me. It was very competitive.”


Arn Anderson Coming Up With The Four Horsemen Idea:
“Actually, the idea for The Four Horsemen came from Arn, just something he said one day about The Four Horsemen. I can’t remember the terminology, but he put up [the] four [hand gesture] and Arn did it and we started doing it each week and within a month it caught on and it was bigger than ever. It was huge, so I give all that to Arn. He took the ball and he ran with it.”

Concordia-Moorhead Recap From Day 1 At NWCA National Duals

Kasprick Closes Out Opening-Day Wins At NWCA National Duals

DES MOINES, Iowa —The Yankees had Mariano Rivera, the 2007 World Champion Boston Red Sox had Jonathan Papelbon and No.6-ranked Concordia has Cody Kasprick. The Cobber closer finished off both team wins for Concordia on the opening day of the NWCA Division III National Duals.

Kasprick posted falls in both matches at 285 in Concordia’s wins over nationally ranked opponents UW-La Crosse and Wabash (Ind.). Kasprick won the match against No.11-ranked UW-La Crosse after the team score was tied at 16-16 heading into the final bout. He then pinned his opponent to seal the Cobbers’ 22-13 win over No.3-ranked Wabash.

The two wins push Concordia’s dual-meet record to 8-1 on the season and propel the Cobbers into the semifinals of the prestigious national dual meet. CC will square off against Minnesota rival Augsburg on Sunday, Jan. 12 at 11 a.m. with the winner advancing to the national championship match.

While Kasprick captured the headlines, it was Concordia’s lighter weights that did the dirty work to get the two bouts to Kapsrick. The 125, 133, 141 and 149 quartet of Gabe Foltz, Jacoby Bergeron, Yonas Gebreab and Jake Long were a combined 7-1 on the day and made sure that the Cobbers never trailed in either match. Foltz went 2-0 at 125 while Bergeron was 2-0 at 133 and Long went undefeated at 149.

Concordia bolted to a 16-3 lead over UW-La Crosse to start the day. Kyle LeDuc and Brandon Haluptzok were the other two CC wrestlers to gain wins in the early stages of the match against the Eagles. LeDuc posted an 11-1 major decision at 157 and then Haluptzok earned a 3-1 decision in his very first match of the season. Haluptzok was studying overseas during the first semester and just recently rejoined the team.

La Crosse rallied and won the next three matches to tie the team score at 16-16. Cue Metallica’s “Enter Sandman and enter Kasprick. The senior from Oakes, N.D. battled undefeated Jake Minske from La Crosse and finally put Minske’s shoulders on the mat at the 6:22 mark to give Concordia the team win at 22-16.

The Cobbers sprinted from the block once again against Wabash. Concordia took control of the dual with the Little Giants by getting out to a 13-0 lead after the first four matches. Wabash, who was ranked third in the nation in the latest NWCA poll, then showed their medal by matching CC’s four straight victories and tying the team score at 13-13. All four of the Little Giants’ victories at 157, 165, 174 and 184 came from wrestlers ranked in the top 10 of the nation.

Concordia junior Delson Saintal earned a huge 5-2 decision at 197 and then Kasprick shipped the team match all the way to Boston by Dropkick Murphying his opponent in the final bout of the day with a pin at 4:09. Kasprick is now 15-6 on the season and has won six straight matches.

Foltz, Bergeron and Long all added two wins to their season totals. Foltz ups his season record to 12-7 while Bergeron is 17-5 and Long is 16-7. Bergeron, LeDuc and Gebreab are all tied for the team lead in wins with 17. Bergeron extended his team-best win streak to eight while Foltz has a five-match win streak going.

Concordia is now assured of finishing now lower than fourth place at the NWCA National Duals which will be the highest finish at the meet in school history. The Cobbers finished in sixth place at the 2010 National Dual Meet.

The Cobbers take on No.2-ranked Augsburg on Sunday at 11 a.m. The championship or third-place match will then be held at 3 p.m.

Nikki Bella Gunning For SmackDown LIve General Manager Job?

Dave Meltzer reported in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter that one upcoming storyline in the new season of Total Divas is going to be one we did not see play out on screen at all. Apparently, Nikki Bella wanted to be SmackDown Live General Manager before her brother-in-law Daniel Bryan landed the gig.
Fans can probably expect to see Nikki Bella gunning for an authority figure role on the Blue Team so she can take it easy and still be a part of the weekly television show. That might be pretty interesting to see.

WWE NXT Results – November 8th, 2017

  Tonight’s edition of NXT was not much of a wrestling-heavy show. Most of the matches were meant to showcase some of the talent who will be involved in the matches at the upcoming Takeover show in Houston, but the show was headlined by a match featuring Roderick Strong taking on Adam Cole. One of my favorite acts started show off: Heavy Machinery.
Heavy Machinery vs. Kris Payne & Sean Maluta –
  Otis Dozovic and Tucker Knight came down to the ring for another squash match against two random opponents. Tucker and Otis both beat down their opponents for a while. Payne and Maluta almost got no offense in during the match. Once Otis was tagged in, he surprised the crowd by doing the Worm before hitting an elbow drop. Once Tucker Knight came back in, he then hit a springboard elbow drop. Dozovic and Knight hit the Compactor on Maluta to get the win.

Winners: Heavy Machiner
  Ember Moon appears backstage for an interview. She is asked about Mercedes Martinez saying that she cannot win “the big one” at Takeover. Ember challenges her to a match next week. It was not officially announced, but the match will likely take place soon.
Kairi Sane vs. Billie Kay –
  This match was setup a few weeks ago when Sane taunted Kay and Peyton Royce backstage. Surprisingly, this match was much more evenly paced than some may believe. Sane caught Kay with a headscissors and a dropkick.

  Kay did manage to fight back for a while, and she even put Sane in a Torture Rack. How often do we see one of those these days?
  Sane then connected with some chops and a diving forearm before, of course, Peyton Royce tried to get involved in the match. Sane fought off the interference and proceeded to hit Billie Kay with the In-Sane Elbow to get another win heading in Takeover.
Winner: Kairi Sane

  In William Regal’s office, Kassius Ohno enters and says that he believes that he deserves to be an NXT Championship contender. Ohno vows to prove himself by asking Regal for a match against Lars Sullivan at Takeover. With some brief hesitation, Regal makes the match official for the show.
  A video package reminding fans what WarGames is  was shown. The reintroduced the concept based on some footage of classic WCW matches featuring the double rings and cage was shown. The likes of Arn Anderson, Booker T, and Dustin Rhodes hyped up the brutality of the match. They also said that Dusty Rhodes, the creator of the match, would be delighted to see it return if he were still alive today.
  Zelina Vega and Andrade “Cien” Almas partake in a brief interview. Vega says that she and Almas faced Drew McIntyre face to face like he wanted, but reminded fans that they beat him down before their contract signing took place last week. When asked what the relationship between herself and Almas really was, Vega quickly brushed the question off and proceeded to put over Almas once again. Almas himself finally spoke and vowed to win the NXT Championship at Takeover.
The Velveteen Dream vs. Cezar Bononi –
  Once again, a quick and easy match meant to highlight our old pal Velvey before his match at Takeover. When the female referee tried to prevent Dream from getting himself disqualified, he nearly put his hands on her. The crowd in Full Sail were surprised to see this. No elbow drop from the Dream, but he still picked up the win courtesy of a Death Valley Driver.
Winner: The Velveteen Dream
  After the match, Velvey “The Dragon” Dreamboat took the mic and warned Aleister Black that he will say his name at Takeover.
  During their triple threat match for a chance to enter the Fatal 4-Way match for the NXT Women’s Championship at Takeover a few weeks ago, it is revealed that Sonya Deville injured Ruby Riot’s ankle. At the Performance Center, Riot receives word that her injury will be healed in two weeks. Deville then comes in and calls Ruby a coward. Ruby says that Sonya has been blaming everyone but herself for her loss in the match. Sonya says that she should’ve tapped out to her in order to avoid the injury, but Ruby proclaims that she should’ve kept the submission move applied to stop her from returning. They will have a match once Ruby has been cleared.
  The Street Profits are hanging out at Full Sail University. A man in a suit walks by and the team have him hold their plastic cup before awarding him with some bling. Another man comes by with a suit meant to be delivered to Tino Sabbatelli. Montez Ford claims that he is Tino and takes the suit. He and Angelo Dawkins proceed to have a look at it before Sabbatelli and Riddick Moss find them with it. Tino says that the Profits can’t afford the suit and Moss warns them to stop touching what is theirs. Dawkins challenges them to a match next week.
Roderick Strong vs. Adam Cole –
  This match comes to us after Strong turned down The Undisputed Era’s offer to join their group. Strong starts the match off by hitting some strikes, chops, and a few dropkicks on Cole. He sent Cole outside of the ring early on after he gave him a shove early in the match. Cole begins to take control after hitting a superkick.
  Cole started to fight back against Roderick Strong with some stomps to the chest. He applied a headscissors on the mat, as well as a headlock. Strong began to get back to his feet with the crowd cheering him on. Strong then hit a pendulum backbreaker on Adam Cole.
  They began chopping each other for a while until Roddy hurled Cole into the corner and charged after him with an explosive forearm. Roddy hit the backbreaker once again for a near fall in this match. The two then traded waistlocks before Cole hit a standing Shining Wizard for a near fall for himself.
  Strong then took control of the match with some basic maneuvers, but it did not take too long for Cole to dish out another superkick. Strong was able to kick out of the superkick and this shocked Cole greatly. Roddy hit a jumping knee and tossed Cole into the corner post. He positioned Cole on top of the post and then proceeded to give him a wicked backbreaker onto the post!
  Roderick definitely had the match won at this point. He struggled to make the cover, and once he finally got close to Cole, Bobby Fish and Kyle O’Reilly ran down to the ring and broke up the pin to end the match via disqualification.
Winner: Roderick Strong
  The group stood in the ring for a bit until The Authors of Pain made their way down to the ring. SAnitY also came emerged from the crowd and stormed the ring. All nine men involved in the WarGames match at Takeover now stood in the ring and they proceeded to lay waste to one another. They all kicked, punched, charged, and dove onto each other. It was a bit like a child taking action figures and having them all ram into each other. Alexander Wolfe did a dive outside of the ring onto everybody as Cole and Strong continued to fight in the ring. Roderick Strong then hit a suplex on Cole from the corner post, causing them to land on the pile of bodies outside. With all of the carnage settled, the show went off the air.
  Just one more show to go until NXT Takeover: WarGames in Houston. It appears as though the card for the show is set, so expect to see more hype for the event, which I suppose is never a bad idea on the final show before the big event. NXT has one more chance to get fans interested in WarGames, but if they can’t do that, fans can rest easy knowing that Tino Sabbatelli will be wrestling on next week’s show. I’ll see you NXT time!

Backstage Update on Women’s SmackDown Last Team Member

As we all know by now, Charlotte defeated Natalya last Tuesday night on SmackDown Live to become the new SmackDown Women’s Champion. Charlotte was originally part of the Women’s SmackDown Team for Survivor Series, but due to her winning the title, she has been removed from the Women’s SmackDown Team, since she now has to face RAW Women’s Champion Alexa Bliss at Survivor Series.
For the past couple of days, there has been speculation on who this could be. Some have speculated that either Paige, Nikki Bella or Natalya could be revealed as the fifth member of the Women’s SmackDown Team for Survivor Series. SmackDown has yet to announce who that fifth member will be and it is said that the announcement will be on Survivor Series itself. 
According to the latest reports from the sources, the fifth member to be revealed this Sunday is leaning towards to be Natalya. However, as is always the case with things like this, plans could always change right up until the afternoon of the show.

Donald Trump tells Theresa May: ‘I would have been tougher on Brexit’

Click:Japanese Samurai Swords

Donald Trump has said he would have negotiated Brexit with a "different" and "tougher" attitude to Theresa May.

Click Here: Maori All Blacks Store

The US president said the European Union was "not cracked up to what it’s supposed to be" and claimed he was unsurprised by the result of the Brexit referendum because Britons "don’t want people coming from all over the world into Britain".

The comments could be seized on by Brexiteers to urge the Prime Minister to be harder in Brexit talks, but Remainers could attack Leavers for sharing views with the controversial and divisive president.

They could also be seen as a blow for Mrs May following her largely successful meeting with Mr Trump in Davos, Switzerland, on Thursday.

The Apache AH-64 attack helicopter was taking part in exercises when it came down on houses close to a elementary school, national broadcaster NHK reported. Footage on television has shown firefighters tackling a blaze that has gutted a two-storey home and caused damage to surrounding buildings. 

The images showed a plume of black smoke rising over houses and apartment blocks. 

There are no reports of injuries to civilians on the ground and the house is reported to have been empty at the time of the accident. Education authorities in Saga Prefecture, south-west Japan, have confirmed that no children attending the nearby school were injured. 

The incident comes amid growing public concern over accidents involving military helicopters, primarily in the southern prefecture of Okinawa.

On February 1, the regional government passed a resolution protesting at a series of forced landings and other mishaps involving aircraft operated by the US military. In January alone, US helicopters made three forced landings in the prefecture, although there were no injuries. 

Takashi Onaga, the governor of Okinawa, described the situation as "crazy".

"The US military is out of control", he said."They cannot exercise any oversight, there are no signs they will reform and the Japanese government cannot handle them", he told reporters last week.

A school close to the US Marine Corps’ Futenma Air Station in Okinawa has been forced to ban children from playing outdoors after a large metal door fell into the school playground from a helicopter. There were no reports of injuries.

Will Kim Jong-un’s olive branch bear fruit? Past inter-Korean summits highlight challenges ahead

Over the past year Kim Jong-un has fired missiles, carried out a massive nuclear test and traded bellicose rhetoric with Donald Trump. Now, the dictator has used the Winter Olympics in South Korea to change tack dramatically and unleash a charm offensive on the world.

The culmination of his efforts was a rare invitation to Pyongyang for South Korea’s president, a significant olive branch that has provoked cautious optimism for warmer relations between the neighbours. 

Mr Kim’s offer was "virtually accepted" by President Moon Jae-in, paving the way for a first inter-Korean summit in more than a decade.

Were the visit to go ahead, it would be only the third such meeting to take place.
