Thanks for the info, lindenchase! Info coming in that James and Richard are filming something in Monaco on board something called The Empress - from what's been put, sounds like something to do with a racing team or corporate hospitality? Looks like a boat to me. Found this pic to go with the info. Hell of a lifestyle.  Got a bit of a thirst on haven't they ;D  |

Unless, of course, they're filming while Jez enjoys the race |

I was obviously right when I put 'hell of a lifestyle'. How does anyone keep their feet on the ground when they regularly find themselves in places like that?

I bet they're doing a 'behind the scenes at F1' or something with Force India - if that's Indian Empress, it's owned by Vijay Mallya, who owns the Force India team.
Vijay Mallya has quite a lot of money. One of Force India's principle sponsors is Kingfisher Airlines. He owns that too, IIRC.
Also, it's hard to tell because of the blurring, but the man in the white blazer might be one of Force India's drivers, Adrian Sutil. Either that, or someone's stolen Sutil's nose and hair...

Adrian Sutil, it is! :-)  ... and some info about that little boat they were on.  I wonder if James had a go at Elton John's baby grand piano, that's apparently on board as well. ;D |

Adrian Sutil, it is! :-) I am now going to be sacrilegous......it could be the camera lens but James looks like he's been tucking into a few Bhunas and beers lately....makes no difference to me, he's beee-yout-eee-ful anyway and I like the fact he's happy to tuck in regardless of image etc! (Just watch yer blood pressure matey!) Just had another look - looking at Richard I think it could be the lens, although Mr Sutil looks streamlined..... |

.....Elevators, Helipad, Gymnasium, Jacuzzi, Elton John's baby grand piano.....beauty salon, massage room, full medical suite....
That's not a boat, that's a small city!

Tis a gin palace of ginormous proportions by the looks of it.
Oh I dunno - looking at things like this just make me think of the huge imbalance between the rich and poor. I'll shut up now cos I don't want to be a spoilsport!

With Dr. Vijay Mallya (Force India F1 Team Owner) at the Kingfisher Boat Party.  Edit: new photo - is James actually being sensible and drinking water as well as his wine?  |

Don't think so, but is it the lady to James' right (centre of the photo) in this pic from the Norway filming? If it is, and from the lanyard she's wearing, she must be one of the crew.  |

I am so excited about this item - Martin Brundle's been tweeting about it and apparently they've been driving the hot hatches around the Monaco GP track. That is potentially just about as good as it gets ;D

I'm in Monaco for the F1 (for work) and have seen the guys. That yacht is beyond amazing in real life! I haven't gotten any pics of them but filmed them going slow on the track, I missed them going quickly...

If you should hear any updates on Sergio Perez's condition in the course of your work, do let us know how he's doing. Sounds like he's going to be OK, but that crash was horrific and head injuries can be a bit unpredictable... |

They've just show a clip of the boys driving the hot hatches around Monaco on the Formula 1 show on BBC1. They had significant F1 luminaries riding shotgun and I haven't seen them this excited since they were in the Spitfires when they went up against the D-Motor team ;D
I'm sure someone will be hitting iPlayer later to cap the sequence, or possibly to rip it if they're better at these things than I am. I so can't wait to see this!
