Media Leader
Which is your favourite newspaper? Mine used to be the Independent, but there has been a gradual drift towards the Guardian, certified today by the discovery that they were the only paper to feature Schumacher on the front page. Inside was then an (almost) double-page spread of news and details about the championship. Ok, so if you buy Gazzetta dello Sport, you'll probably get 4 full-page, full-broadsheet size, spreads, but not many of us here speak Italian. I think the Guardian is the best.
In other news, the Germans are celebrating yesterdays win as one of Michael's best (see autosport.com, which is not letting me login at the moment to view the review articles) - but his brilliance in China didn't stop when he got out of the car. After celebrating with his mechanics perhaps with more joy than we've ever seen before (Sabine Kehm was even surprised) he then had the sense to have a quick look at Alonso's front tyres on his way past the Renault. Genius.

There is a lot of F1 coverage in the Metro which I sometimes pick up in the morning, I don't usually have enough time for any other paper in the week 10 mins of reading time.
But on the weekend I get the Guardian.

And I ment to add, the autosport redesign kicked me out and wouldn't allow me to log in first time either. After a Ctrl+F5 (full refresh so not just F5) it let me log in fine.
I like the Metro too - it almost always has something on F1.
An interesting insight from the Guardian: apparently when Alonso lowered his Champagne to his mechanics, they dropped it and it smashed all over the pit-lane. Michael's mechanics caught his safely.
Autosport is now working fine - thanks for the remedy.

Interestingly I read the same insight on autosport.
They said there that the guy that caught it for Michael was the happiest guy in F1, even happier than Michael.

I rarely buy a paper these days, Radio 4 gives me the news on the move, but when i do it would be a Telegraph.
Metro though is a good little number, but can get a bit boring if you read it all everyday!
