Telegraph piece on FIA versus Racism

[quote:] "Photographer Darren Heath was recently commissioned to take
portraits of F1 individuals of diverse cultural backgrounds. The idea
being that the door is open regardless of creed. Heath turned up 50
varieties of homo sapiens, not quite meeting the Heinz standard, but
close enough to suggest that F1 does not discriminate."

Fifty varieties? I hope they're not trying to include the bloody
Cornish. The photographer would have to do some major digitizing to
make them look human. Angolan yes, Maori, sure, even [Southern] Welsh
at a pinch, but please no Homo Penzancii. Or Dorking. I forgot
Dorking. On a train once, in the lav, on the sign that said DO NOT
FLUSH WHILE IN THE STATION, someone had added "EXCEPT DORKING".
