After ruining Taylor Swift’s moment at the Video Music Awards, Kanye West gave his thoughts on the whole Renault situation including Nelson Piquet Jr and Flavio Briatore…

Look-alike: Scott Speed vs Seann William Scott

What’s Scott Speed up to these days? Anyway, when he was in F1 I always thought he looked (and acted) a bit like Seann William Scott famous from the American Pie movies among others (I have to admit, I quite like his movies apart from American Pie 3). Oh, and that’s not a typo, it is Seann with 2 n’s, not Sean William Scott as I first thought… Â Hmmm… Seann-Scott….

Ok, so this week we’re having a good run with Felipe Massa look-alikes. To add to our Felipe Massa vs Fred Savage and Felipe Massa vs Sylvester Stallone posts, we now bring you Felipe Massa vs The Fonz, at the launch of the new (now old) Ferrari – yes, we have a lot of material saved that we haven’t used yet… we’ll get there so stay tuned…

Look-alike: Felipe Massa vs Sylvester Stallone

Instead of Felipe Massa looking like Fred Savage, he’s done a bit of growing up this time and now looks like Sylvester Stallone from Cobra…

Mark Webber and Paris Hilton

If Mark Webber’s career in Formula One doesn’t work out, the guy might have a potential career in modelling, because this model with Paris Hilton sure reminds me of him (apart from the strange hair on the model)…

Cate Blanchett to play Valentino Rossi

Cate Blanchett is playing some famous dude in her new movie. While it’s claimed she’s playing Bob Dylan, personally I think she’s really playing MotoGP rider Valentino Rossi…

David Coulthard in Transformers movie?

Red Bull Racing are well known to support and promote new movie releases, especially in Monaco last year:

With the Transformers movie launched in Australia today, one would think there would be a direct link somewhere between Transformers and Formula One. After all, the Autobots are cars that transform into robots right? So wouldn’t it make sense to cross-promote by having a Transformer that’s a Formula One car?

There does seem to be an open-wheeler Transformer called Mirage, but instead of an F1 car that transforms into a robot, how about an F1 driver that transforms into a Transformer? Look no further than David Coulthard…

Malcolm in the Middle to GP2

There was a blast of coolness in the McLaren camp during the US Grand Prix with producing legend Pharrell Williams there to support Lewis Hamilton. However a more interesting story came from the visit of Malcolm in the Middle star Frankie Muniz to the track.

I didn’t even realise it but Frankie currently races in the Champ Car Atlantic series and last year competed in the Formula BMW USA Championship. At the US Grand Prix Frankie stated he’s looking for a GP2 drive in 2007!

No offence to Frankie, but his results in the other series are rather dismal (currently 27th in the Atlantic championship with 4 points), so to be looking for a GP2 drive… Well, one can hope I guess..

Photos: Paris Hilton Drives McLaren

We thought the fact that Britney Spears drives a McLaren Mercedese SLR was good, but while doing some research on McLaren today we came across photos of Paris Hilton in her own McLaren Mercedes! And we know how much you, the viewing public, loves Paris Hilton!

Come on Paris.. If you’re going to get an SLRÂ McLaren Mercedes, the least you can do is get a silver one!! It looks crap in black! You know, Silver Arrows and all (though not the Tom Walkinshaw / Footwork type Arrows thankfully )..

Apparently Paris traded her Bentley Continental GT in to get the McLaren Mercedes. At least she moved up in the world I guess! (that Bentley is an ugly POS)Â :)

Britney Spears Drives McLaren!

Britney Spears actually owns a Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren! Yes, I was shocked to find out too. It’s amazing Britney has such good taste in cars when her taste in clothes and husbands is, well, questionable..

The Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren is a rear-wheel-drive 5.5L supercharged V8 beast that can do 0-100 kph (0-60 mph) in 3.6 seconds. Very toxic indeed! It costs over $400,000 US. Not as much wow factor as the original McLaren F1 road car, but still quite tidy..
