Re Pascal Wehrlein in Monaco and Scott Dixon in the Indy 500 both being flipped over;
When boxer Julius Francis fought Mike Tyson, he deliberately had the soles of his boots sponsored - so that when he inevitably got knocked down the crowd would see the sponsor!
They miss that trick in motorsport - the cars are completely blank underneath.
Then again who would sponsor a flipped car?
Somehow a driver never has this written underneath;
"To my ex-wife : Does this count as your own back?"
(Initially I used to mishear `Jabroc plank' as `Jabberwock plank' - and thought it was about that weird movie creature being made of wood or shown in old forests etc - the way it existed in the modern world in the movie - an old bit of wood attached to a hi tech car!)
