on a C6 RS 6 avant In the car park of West London Audi on the new Audi A8 launch evening, looking good. If you were at the launch my car was the S8 on display at the top floor of the showroom!

That will have been me Yes was at the launch and had been admiring your S8 which looked great It fitted in perfectly with the other cars on show .. (except that Q7 which was just terrible due to the "customisation")

What did you think of the new A8 ?

Thanks for the compliment, I can't say I had a good look at that Q7 though! I have to be honest I wasn't too impressed with the new A8, I think it may grow on me. I feel the inside of the new 7 Series BMW is nicer, I had a go in one when my 335 went in for warranty work, and the new Jag XJ looks better in my opinion.

Isn't that adamr8965's car?

Donington Park yesterday, along with a 56 plate B7 and my B8, looking good

Yeah that was me .. I spotted your B8, missed the B7

What where you doing at the FE event ?

Yes, good day I thought, I'm an investor in one of the suppliers so came to see Sim2, you?

I am the main lead for Qualcomm into Formula E, we are a founding Sponsor and Investor .. I've been working with them for near 2 years, since before they had the cars .. so great to see what they have achieved so far. I think it will be a very close and exciting race series and am looking forward to being at the races.

One great side benefit of my involvement is I have become very good friends with Lucas Di Grassi (Audi WEC driver and of course Audi Sport ABT Formula E driver)

Nice one, it was great to see wasn't it, the cars are stunning and from a tech point of view, quite amazing what has been achieved at this early stage. Really looking forward to Bejing going well and then London next year of course.
