And on the second day (of the Japanese Grand Prix weekend), amidst the great annual deluge, the mighty one did look down on the paddock and saw that some of his children were without food and water.

And Bernie, for it was he, did quietly add the cost to his invoice, casting his gaze across the land to France.
