That being said, we’ve had to wait a bit longer for Honda to officially have a go at the Nürburgring Nordschleife with the new FL5 CTR. As more time passed, some were beginning to wonder if another front-wheel-drive lap record was as inevitable as first thought.

Sunburn is literally a burn to the skin from the sun, however, it occurs more slowly than other types of burns. It is well known that light-skinned people have the highest risk of getting sunburned, but many people do not realise that skin of any colour can be damaged by the sun’s rays.

Even the most ardent Ted Danson fan could be forgiven for doing a double take over the weekend as the actor filmed his latest scenes for Curb Your Enthusiasm.  The veteran star, 74, plays a fictionalised version of himself in the long-running American sitcom, but he was unrecognisable while posing for an off-camera photo with daughter-in-law Lily Collins.  With a bald cap covering his thick head of hair, Danson looked more like comedian Larry David - the show's follicly challenged leading man - as he relaxed between takes with the actress.
