Honda Racing has completed a two-day pre-Le Mans test at the Bugatti circuit in preparation for the 24 Hours of Le Mans race, which will take place in a few weeks time on 18-19 April.

All the main contenders were in Le Mans for this dress rehearsal before the 2015 season kicks off - there was no official timing for the test. The first day began on a wet track before the sun appeared in the afternoon, but cold weather conditions made the track very tricky.

Endurance specialists Freddy Foray, Julien Da Costa and Sébastien Gimbert mainly worked on the performance of the Honda CBR1000RR Fireblade SP in race conditions. The squad also made the most of the test to perfect its tactical plan for the 24 Hour race in a few weeks time.

This test was ahead of the 24 Hours Motos launch that will be hosted in Paris tomorrow (2 April) at Goodyear Dunlop Tyres France. Freddy Foray and Julien Da Costa will attend the press conference where the teams Honda CBR1000RR Fireblade SP will also be displayed. 

The Isle of Man Insurance and Pensions Authority have brought in new Insurance Special Purpose Vehicle (ISPV) Legislation which enhances the Island's already attractive insurance business offering.

The legislation enables Isle of Man firms to facilitate Insurance Linked Securities (ILS) and similar transactions including catastrophe bonds.

John Garland, Head of Corporate Financial Services with the Isle of Man Government's Department of Economic Development said:

"We have been working and consulting closely with industry and the Insurance and Pensions Authority on introducing this legislation and already have enquiries in the pipeline. We believe that our framework for ISPVs offers excellent features for potential users as well as the proportionate and focused legislation that we are renowned for. This new framework promises to open up new business streams for the Isle of Man and provide welcome competition in this area, particularly given our close proximity to London."  

"We can offer speed to market with the licencing process designed to take just 5 days following receipt of fully prepared applications. We can also offer a highly competitive fee structure – that may be fixed for the lifetime of any ISPV with a determinable lifespan - along with simplified regulatory requirements, including returns.

I am confident that our framework will prove of great interest to potential users in this specialist area who want to place their business in a highly respected and responsible international finance centre with a long track record of attracting high quality insurance business from around the world."

UK motorcyclists will need to display a front number plate, under new laws passed by the British Government.

Motorcyclists will need to apply to the DVLA by 31st April 2015 and purchase an envelope-sized sticker (at a cost of £29.99) – which they will need to attach to the front of their helmets.

The UK’s top traffic cop, Ian Dumbass, said "Bikers have been getting away with speeding offences for far too long", claiming that 69% of bikers caught speeding by traffic control and speed cameras escaped a fine because of the lack of front number plates.

Will you buy a sticker or run the risk of a £1,000 fine?

Update after noon on 1st April...

A few caught off guard (and a lot not)...  We try and make it very obvious it is a joke with PMS, Dumbass, 31st April and posted on 1st April...  Have a great April everyone.
