Jensen Button may be imprisoned after this race!

Yes, apparently it's true, if Jensen Button doesn't win at San Marino, he may be imprisoned in the Tower of London by order of Her Majesty!

I'm guessing he won't actually be imprisoned, but if the Queen really has given him a royal commandment to win the race then I'm guessing there is still old laws in place that say disobeying a direct order from the ruling Monarch is punishable by imprisonment

On a related side not - do you think that the Queen ever watches the F1 and goes "one did not enjoy that race since one's damned corgi's were yapping throughout and one's remote control was elsewhere so one could not turn up the volume enough"?

Hmmmmm, I won't spoil it yet for anyone who hasn't watched it, but do you think it'd still count as disobeying an order when he came in 7th because of the reason he did? First time I've seen something like that happen for a while!
