@jbenton @TheMessenger My only question is when somebody is finally going to realise that “build em high and sell ads” is not a viable business model in the 21st century

[James Hewes @jhewes]

@virtualstatman @TheBishF1 @MackFordFan98 Farina and Fangio in the inaugural world championship season too?

@whatKatydidnext @MrStuartForrest @roadratmagazine @timhudson1311 @mikeyharvey Some might say… he still doesn’t

[James Hewes @jhewes]

@roadratmagazine @timhudson1311 @MrStuartForrest @mikeyharvey Now now children, play nicely

@chris_sw17 Spot on @chris_sw17. Our former employer seems to live in abject terror of this Tory government

[James Hewes @jhewes]

@virtualstatman Paul Belmondo?

[James Hewes @jhewes]

@virtualstatman Haven’t had a full grid - which the FIA has forgotten is 26 cars - for what, 20 years or more?

[James Hewes @jhewes]

Hey @Tesco are you now doing facial recognition on everyone coming into your stores without telling them? Coz there’s suddenly a camera and screen at the entrance of Tesco Cowbridge that looks like it…

First podium for #HelmutMarko since Le Mans 1971…

[James Hewes @jhewes]

Please @DwrCymru can you give us an update on the burst pipe in #Penarth? Are you expecting it to be repaired today? Thanks

[James Hewes @jhewes]

@virtualstatman And Sauber and Williams in 2012 too

[James Hewes @jhewes]

@virtualstatman Maldonado and Barrichello at Williams in 2011?

[James Hewes @jhewes]

Dear @British_Airways it would be helpful if you told people at @Gatwick_Airport that you can’t check in for @vueling flights at BA desks (even though they have BA flight numbers and the booking is in the app) so that you don’t waste more hours of your life…

Britain faces a simple and inescapable choice - stability and strong Government with me, or chaos with Ed Miliband: https://t.co/fmhcfTunbm

Great talking to @jhewes CEO and President of @FIPPWorld - always with great insights

Photographer @Newshaphoto speaks with Natalie Theodosi

+ always good to speak with @DavidShaftel from @racquetmagazine 🎾 (the @Wimbledon issue is great)

[James Hewes @jhewes]

For the second time in two weeks @easyJet , you’ve cancelled my flight at short notice and with no reasonable alternative. So I’ve had to spend the thick end of a thousand quid working around your chaos. Compensation?

[James Hewes @jhewes]

Just fucking get on with it!!! What are you waiting for?

[James Hewes @jhewes]

.@F1 stop pandering to the bloody teams! Just start the race on time and let them teams sort it out themselves! All that’s going to happen is you’re guaranteeing a procession! #MonacoGP

[James Hewes @jhewes]

@TimothyHolmes @F1 Thankfully not - I’m saving it for another day!

[James Hewes @jhewes]

@mikeyharvey Said it before, I’ll say it again - take the teams out of the decision making process. And as a rule of thumb, anything they don’t like, you should do!
