Beyonce and Jay-Z get private racing lessons from Hamilton
Beyonce and her husband Jay-Z received some private racing lessons from McLaren Mercedes F1 Team driver Lewis Hamilton at Monaco. A friend of the couple said: "Beyonce's so excited to be learning from him (Hamilton) and Jay's even worse. He's ready to put on his helmet and get in the fast lane himself."

When Nick Heidfeld completed the Spanish Grand Prix, it was the 25th consecutive race to see him reach the finish line. By doing so, the German broke fellow countryman and seven-time World Champion Michael Schumacher's now-former record.
Adding icing to the cake - literally - Heidfeld signed the accomplishment on his 32nd birthday.
The landmark not only shows the BMW Sauber driver's consistent performance, but also the strength and reliability of the team's cars.
The last time Nick Heidfeld failed to reach the finish line dates back to the Japanese Grand Prix of the 2007 season, when a technical issue forced him to stop on the side of a drenched Fuji Speedway with only two laps to go.
Since then, Heidfeld saw the chequered flag at the remainder of the 2007 season, the entirety of the 2008 championship, and at every race so far this year.
"I would like to say a big thank you to the BMW Sauber F1 Team for the stability of the car, which obviously played a major role in this record," Heidfeld acknowledged.
In a confidential letter, the chairman of the British Racing Drivers' Club has reportedly proposed to sell the Silverstone circuit, the long-time host of the British Grand Prix which is set to present its final F1 round this year.
The leaked proposal, made in writing by Robert Brooks, would have to be backed by other members of the track-owning club. The move could theoretically be a shot in the arm to the hopes of the Northamptonshire track of retaining its Formula One status.
The British Grand Prix is moving to Donington starting next year, but amid reported problems the possibility of seeing the race postponed until 2011 has risen.
The Guardian newspaper claims that front of the queue to buy Silverstone could be the circuit's seasoned critic Bernie Ecclestone.
Should the F1 chief executive buy the Silverstone circuit, he could run the British Grand Prix at the venue "as he pleases."
The newspaper also claims that the BRDC, which has owned Silverstone since 1971, irritates the 78-year-old billionaire "intensely."
Max Mosley believes Ferrari will lose its court action on Tuesday.
The case, an application for an injunction against the 2010 rules to be heard by a French court, is based on the Italian team's 2005 agreement with the sport's governing body.
Amid the last 'breakaway' threats three years ago, the FIA and Bernie Ecclestone reached a private agreement with Ferrari, offering more commercial income, stable rules, and special 'veto' power regarding major upheavals.
Ferrari claims this agreement has been breached, but Mosley believes that it is the Maranello outfit that did not live up to its end of the bargain: loyalty.
"They were in a position where they had whatever they had under the old 1998 Concorde Agreement in return for being loyal," he said.
Mosley believes Ferrari broke the agreement by establishing the Formula One Teams Association (FOTA), of which the Italian marque's President Luca di Montezemolo is chairman.
"Essentially, they walked away by forming FOTA. They were always supposed to be loyal to the FIA, work with us and cooperate," said the FIA President.
In return, FOTA claims the FIA failed to cooperate with the teams when establishing the regulations coming into effect with the 2010 season.

Rumours are his KERS also powers his casette player which has ABBA on constantly. Kubica not having KERS, goes without.
