This week we have news from General Motors posting a loss for 2009 whilst Geely the Chinese manufacturer posted a healthy profit, plus news items from Ford, Renault, Peugeot and Daimler.


There are also news items about BMW, the Nurburgring 24 hour race and I have a small rant about the rubbish that some media outlets send out!


The motor sports segment is about the Le Mans Series race from Paul Ricard, the Indy race from Alabama and the NASCAR race from Phoenix.


In the history segment, I describe Berliet, a pioneer of the French industry.


Finally there is a technical article on the use of Jatropha as a source of bio diesel.
