Formula 1 reporting on the web is colourful but rarely accurate as there are not many websites in a position to pay contributors. This was highlighted over the weekend by one report of Alexander Wurz's testing accident in Valencia which stated that "the impact forced the lower left wishbone to pierce the monocoque wall, severing Wurz's leg".

Hopefully the Austrian's limb will be sewn back on again in time for the Hungarian Grand Prix this weekend.
