Sir, – Next summer’s Formula One event in Dublin “will start at the Central Bank before passing Trinity College and going down Burgh Quay and crossing the Samuel Beckett bridge. The track ends on Custom House Quay.” (Home News, August 22nd).
In other words, from the site of farcical fiscal irresponsibility to within spitting distance of a potent symbol of the Celtic Tiger, via a bridge named after a man who knew an absurdity when he saw it. Will the race be classed F1 or IMF1? – Yours, etc,
