I found a few more. Maybe 5. The following is from Flckr and will only be here for less than 24 hours.

I noticed it wasn't Senna's helmet and then noticed the caption to the photo.

I'm still torqued at them (McLaren) for the cheating scandal last year.

I didn't realise they had Historic F1 races. I'd have thought the cars were irreplaceable if they got 'bent' or someone blew a motor.

Every other year they have an historic GP at Monaco. I wouldn't mind seeing that! Wonder how many clip the barrier there?

I am a big Hamilton fan he really is the coolest dude on the planet, also the best driver on the F1 scene , shame he had to throw it last year but that was polititics and NOTHING to do with 'cheating'
