wrighty Posted November 27, 2018 Posted November 27, 2018 I thought that the term 'Grand Prix' referred to a race of some sort that is part of a series, such that the points allocated at each event are all added up and at the end of the season whoever has the most gets the 'big prize'.
La Colombe Posted November 27, 2018 Author Posted November 27, 2018 Yes, one should make the distinction between Grand Prix and Formula 1.
The Old Git Posted November 27, 2018 Posted November 27, 2018 Yes, I think the earliest use of Grand Prix was a horse race with a fair bit of gold as the first prize.

The Phat Tog Posted November 27, 2018 Posted November 27, 2018 Anyhoo... The young lady involved in the shunt, although in a neck brace, has walked out of hospital and is on her way home.

TheDruid-3X3 Posted December 1, 2018 Posted December 1, 2018 I held is that LeMans was referred to as 'The Grand LeMans'. So that is where I got it from. 3X3

Kopek Posted December 17, 2018 Posted December 17, 2018 Just to confuse the 'Bigs Prize' v ' Big Prizes' argument. Why did Pontiac call one of their models 'Big Morning' or 'Big Radio Frequency'?
the stinking enigma Posted December 18, 2018 Posted December 18, 2018 Great news for all sports fans. https://mol.im/a/6505133 She should be able to twerk again within 2 months
