JAGUAR Formula One is offering a $65,000 X-series car as reward for anyone who finds and returns a $360,000 (AUD) 108 carat diamond that was fitted to the nose cone of a race car that crashed in Sunday's Monaco Grand Prix. A spokesman said the team was planning to scour the streets of Monaco for the button-sized gem that vanished when rookie driver Christian Klien ploughed into the barrier on his first lap. Klien, 20, crashed negotiating a hairpin bend at 113km per hour, spreading debris over about 200 metres. "We're searching a very large area for a very small diamond," Jaguar spokesman Nav Sidhu said. "We're not expecting someone to turn up and say, 'Hey, we've found your diamond'." The team had a diamond fitted on the nose of both their race cars as part of a sponsorship tie-up with Steinmetz Diamond Group. I'd like to know who the genius was that thought attaching a $360,000 diamond on the tip of a race car would be a good idea.....friggin' idiots, searves em right. Some birds probably allready picked it up and flown it halfway accross the country by now.

Yes, they truly are tools....they put a $360,000 diamond on, not just the car that crashed, but BOTH the team cars....that's $720,000 they gambled with, I guess they're lucky that only ONE crashed. Come to think of it, i dunno how secure a button sized diamond would be on the tip of an F1 car, even if the driver didn't crash, those things would be bouncin around left right and centre around a track, wouldn't take much to rattle loose a lil stone, no matter how they attached it.
