Henley and Wimbledon Splash

Henley Royal Regatta

Nice weather for ducks

Wimbledon, SW19. The All England Club Tennis Championships started in Great British style this morning. The scheduled start of play was delayed by half an hour on Monday following rain showers. Play had been due to start at 1100 GMT on the outside courts but tournament referee Andrew Jarrett announced a delay following a morning of rainfall in southwest London. Monday’s weather forecast is for rain to continue into the afternoon with some brighter spells later in the day.

Reigning (or should that be raining?) Wimbledon Champion Roger Federer is due to open his title defence against France’s Richard Gasquet today.

Sunshine for Henley

Henley Royal Regatta splashes down on the 28th of June till the 2nd July 2006 and the current forecast foretells a bright and sunny Regatta, perfect for Pimms, Champagne and like Wimbledon - strawberries and cream. Enjoy.

England Expects

England Chauffeur

England football fans can finally relax after yesterday’s nail-biting match in Germany. Whatever happens against Sweden on the 20th of June, England have earnt a place in the knockout stage of the World Cup Finals. Proposed strike action by the Members of the Rail Maritime and Transport Union might make it difficult for commuting football fans to watch the match with Sweden on Tuesday, and when they strike again at 9pm on Sunday June 25.

English Flag, English Chauffeur

Nearly every car in England sports a St George cross at the moment. You can show your love for Rooney, Becks and the boys by hiring a English chauffeur car to help you get back from work to watch the game or even better driving out to Germany in an English Bentley or Rolls-Royce to make the ultimate patriotic statement.

More than football

As June heats up to boiling point it would be all too easy to forget about the other great sporting events that are happening in England and Britain. What could be more quintessentially English than Royal Ascot, Tennis at Wimbledon or the Henley Royal Regatta? Even if the English boys don’t manage a repeat of 1966’s victory, expect a wonderful English summer of sport. Remember you don’t have to expect iChauffeur to do their duty, that is guaranteed.

Contact iChauffeur to find out more about hiring a chauffeur driven car to the World Cup Finals, Wimbledon or wherever.

Silverstone Calling

Silverstone Warming Up

Sunday’s Monaco Grand Prix showed the full spectrum of highs and lows that this glamourous sport oozes. Dripping with gorgeous girls, outrageous yachts and more horse power than the Epsom Derby, Monte Carlo once again was full of drama, excitement and with the death of Michelin Chairman, Edouard Michelin in a fishing accident on Friday - a tragic affair.

Monaco will probably be remembered for Michael Schumacher’s ‘parking’ incident where he "deliberately stopped his car on the circuit" After which he was relegated to start from the pits, but he came a remarkable 5th in the race with an inspired drive. Fernando Alonso won the race and dedicated it to Edouard. Montoya came in 2nd and Britain’s David Coulthard climbed onto the 3rd place spot on the podium, sporting a Superman cape. DC will sure to be fired up for Silverstone, and the British Grand Prix will once again be the place to be seen on June 11th. Jenson Button believes that he has got his work cut out if he is going to win in Silverstone.

We are not blinded by the fourth position Rubens had - we have a lot of work to do,

—Jenson Button

Home James - Looking good for Thompson

James Thompson WTCC

James Thompson Shines at Brands

The WTCC at Brands Hatch got a little slippery for Andy Priaulx. The reigning WTCC champion struggled on the rain-drenched Brands Hatch circuit. Another Briton - James Thompson made the most of the situation and made it to the podium on both races—finishing 3rd for both sessions. This has lifted the Seat driving Yorkshireman to 2nd in the championship.

It is a long way to go in the championship but I am starting to be very competitive and I just have to keep making this sort of progress at every event and I will be there at the end.

—James Thompson

Lets hope Jenson Button will be as successful at Silverstone, when the Formula 1 boys fire up the Northamptonshire circuit in June for this years British Grand Prix
