Q I was involved in a motorcycle collision, which finished up in court. I had solicitors. The case was that I was knocked off my motorbike as I was filtering past cars. One car turned right into an industrial estate and knocked me off my bike. I broke my leg in the collision, and it is still not right. Anyway, I was sued by the other driver. They told me to offer 50/50 blame, which I reluctantly did. The car driver managed to get two witnesses to say I was filtering far too fast, which is bullshit, and my barrister, who looked about 12, did not call these witnesses out for what they were... liars. The judge found I was 80% to blame. Can I sue my solicitors or my barrister? Or should I appeal against the biased judge? My solicitors are not prepared to appeal on a ‘no win, no fee’ basis and have told me I need to front up close to £2,000 to send my child barrister off to the High Court for permission to appeal – not even an appeal.

DAN LINFOOT THE WORLD AT HIS FEET...
The racing world is full of characters who generally like to keep themselves to themselves, and I respect that. However, some of these people have a great story to tell. I'm incredibly fortunate to be friends with a few, have access to many more, and through my role with the award-winning podcast Chasin' the Racing, I get to sit down and chew the fat with some amazing individuals, so I wanted to give you lovely bunch a peep through the keyhole and an opportunity to get to know a bit more about some of these 'people of interest'.
ROSSI'S RANCH - LA 100KM DEI CAMPIONI
It's not every day you get the invite to trade paint, drifts and stories with Rossi and a bunch of world champions, but that's how life played out for the Neave twins a few weeks back.
RATING RUBBER...
We love a tyre launch, and especially ones of a sporty disposition. So when Michelin dropped us a line about not one, but two additions to their range, we didn't need our arm twisting to get stuck in and see what they're all about...

I'm fresh back from the South African Classic TT races and Christ, it's still bloody raining over here.

Well, my last column was all about just how I'm going to be the most prepared I could ever be for the season ahead.
