Rate the chances of this....
Bit of an irreverant topic, but it is friday afternoon 
OK folks, as this is the first GP to be held in Turkey, what do you think the chances are that 'Turkish Delight' for ..... will be the tag line used in the mags, papers and F1 websites post race...?

If there is a big accident I am certain that James Allen will tell us that "Jonny Driver has stuffed it in Turkey".

I voted definitely, but actually I think the papers might not bother because the infuriating dullard is bound to use it several times in commentary.

Someone will be described as looking like a Turkey as well. Still, it makes a change from James' Crowded House lyrical quotes in Australia every year.

10/10 for that suggestion. Although some will make there point.

It will of course be used several times by the tabloids and our man James Allen.
I will wear my T-Shirt in protest regardless.......

Of course, the leader won't be simply lapping backmarkers - he will be gobbling them up...

It'll be interesting to see if a car pulls out a big lead and they say it's "stretching its legs".
And we all know DC is a renowned breast man.

Any pit lane fires will no doubt bring about a host of headlines in the worst possible taste.....so we won't go there.
There's still the possibility of rain....so maybe we're in for a "Turkish bath".

It's way too obvious, which is why they'll probably use it anyway as they don't appear to have much of an imagination...

Turkish Delight?? Absolutely, in fact if Jim hasn't used it within the first 10 minutes of Quallifying coverage I shall be quite disappointed. Not to mention James Allen telling us which drivers are looking like stuffed turkeys...and if anyone mentions 'gobbling', it will be DC if Louise catches up with him

The possibilities are endless...my favourite F1 headline ever has to be "Diniz in the oven" - kudos to whichever sub-ed thought that one up!

Makes one wonder what 'they' might want to do with the giblets, stuffing and gravy!
I suppose 'cold left overs' might be on the menu somewhere, together with a 'bit of a pickle'.
Turkey Twizzlers - now that is a must!
