Random officials blocking the pitlane? This year's AzerbaijanGP was not the first time such an incident has happened. In the latest issue of gpracingonline, MauriceHamilton looks at when the same took place for a future F1 champion ⬇️
Random officials and meandering photographers in the pitlane? MAURICE HAMILTON reminds us it’s been seen before – with a shoddily parked Ford Cortina thrown into the mix…Not for the first time, I found myself wishing Niki Lauda was on hand for a quick quote, just to put the latest Formula 1 nonsense in perspective.
Niki would have recalled the 1974 British GP. Trying to emerge from a last-lap tyre change, he found the end of the Brands Hatch pitlane blocked by a mass of hangers-on – with an official car parked in their midst. It was crucial for many reasons, not least being that Lauda and Ferrari had been leading their respective title races going into this 10th round of the championship. They came out of it a chastened and angry second on both counts.

Comparison of fasting and random lipid profiles among subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus: an outpatient-based cross-sectional study in Bangladesh - Diabetology & Metabolic SyndromeBackground Despite the wide acceptability of fasting lipid profiles in practice, emerging evidence suggests that random lipid profiles might be a convenient alternative for lipid measurement. The objective of the present study was to compare the fasting and random lipid profile among subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Methods The present cross-sectional study included 1543 subjects with T2DM visiting several endocrinology outpatient clinics throughout Bangladesh from January to December 2021. The fasting lipid profile was measured in the morning following 8–10 h of overnight fasting, and the random lipid profile was measured at any time of the day, irrespective of the last meal. The values of fasting and random lipids were compared using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test and Spearman rank correlation coefficients. Results In this study, a good level of correlation was observed between fasting and random lipid levels [r = 0.793, p | 0.001 for triglyceride (TG); r = 0.873, p | 0.001 for low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C); r = 0.609, p | 0.001 for high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C); and r = 0.780, p | 0.001 for total cholesterol (TC)]. In addition, TG and TC levels increased by 14% and 0.51%, respectively, in the random state compared to the fasting state (p- |0.05), while LDL-C levels decreased by 0.71% (p-value 0.42). No change was noticed in the HDL-C level. The difference between fasting and random lipid profiles was similar irrespective of patients’ age, sex, BMI, glucose-lowering drug(s), and lipid-lowering therapy. Conclusions Random lipid profile correlates significantly with fasting lipid profile with little difference. Hence, it might be a reliable alternative for fasting lipid profile in patients with T2DM.
