Instead of Guido De Marco thanking his lucky stars that he managed to get such a unique position, he goes and falls asleep!
Another Maltese fiasco!

Mar: Malta is actually south east of Cap Bon (Tunisia) which is the northernmost tip of the African continent.

This discovery is truly amazing. It’s another in the line of recent shattering discoveries made by our intrepid and valiant Maltese explorers. The latest is the discovery of the old knights’ bridge at City Gate. A real breakthrough, literally, made by a JCB excavator on top of the bridge. In recognition of their inestimable contribution to our history and knowledge, these notable explorers should be awarded the country’s highest honour.

Now that in itself is a revelation. How come no one knew that Guido de Marco is a FIA judge?

In reply to Graham Crocker. At least it's not described as "North Africa" or "north of Africa"

The former president of Malta is (a sleeping) judge in Formula 1? See the last paragraph: “During a lengthy and detailed exchange debating the definition of a ‘hole’, one of the FIA judges, Malta’s Guido de Marco, reportedly fell asleep more than once.”

Oh mamma mia! Nispera li issa nispjega lili inifsi b’mod ahjar u iktar car. Il-ferita hi li xi hadd bravu hafna qal li ma jkunx sew li nhaffru hofra taqt l-art…u tafu ghala? Biex l-affarijiet li hemm fuq ma jcedux!

In reply to Darren. Petty squabbles? Millions of euros and a better heritage and tourism product for Malta is a petty squabble for you?!
