I apologies for bringing this up. And particularly to our our non-English friends.
Although short lived, I normally take the opportunity to enjoy trafficless roads and restaurants when England try not to get eliminated from a major football event.
Unfortunately, I have been at home and had the misfortune to watch the England football team play in the World Cup. (I had to put that in 'cos I'm sure some people didn't know it was on).
In motorsport, particularly in endurance racing, the team succeed to fail on the overall team performance. Also, we all know that every second counts.
In contrast, it looked to me as though England (a) only have half a team that was committed to being there, and (b) thought they were doing the football equivalent of a driving tour.
In future, I want. Dr. Ulrich to manage the England football team and then I know that the team will win and win again.
(Actually scrap that, I'd prefer him to run Audi - it's much more entertaining than football will ever be)
