EOIN YOUNG’S DIARY

TYRRELL MAGIC The Tyrrell mechanics reported a genuine miracle in their pit at Silverstone before the British Grand Prix when, before their very eyes, Uri Geller smoothed his fingers along a eighteen-millimetre combination Snap-on spanner and it bent as though it was made of spaghetti.

They didn’t believe what they were seeing and naturally applied some muscle to the spanner, but couldn’t make an impression. They could get a bend if they locked it into a vice and belted it with a hammer, but no way could they bend the Snap-On the way Geller had. They’re all believers now.
