MasterChef recap: Service, s'il vous plait! Which team's French ... (Good Food)

The Fans and Faves divide and conquer to create a three-course menu du jour for a French-inspired service challenge.

And the Fans beat the Faves in dessert as well, because Shannon told them what to do. The Fans beat the Faves in main because the Faves' flavours didn't jump off the page and Melissa thinks food is a book. First the Faves, who have made a macaron, lemon tart and choux pastry, which are very good of course, but the base of the tart is a touch blonde which the judges dislike due to racism. It's time to plate the lamb navarin, and Minoli is nervous, wondering how they will take the dish from a home-style dish to a restaurant-quality one. Sashi declares that the sauce is thick and glossy, and he immediately enters in a dog show. Melissa admits that it is elegant to look at, so the taste really doesn't matter. Matt explains that because Shannon is in the kitchen, he really wants to make a great dish and beat the Faves. This is quite a departure from Matt's usual goal, which is to make a bunch of crap and lose. In fact the ingredients are too numerous, so they get rid of some, which causes them to fear the dish is too simple. They eat the Fans' steak tartare, which is fairly good although not, obviously, as good as meat that has actually been cooked. Meanwhile, Max attempts to place egg yolks on the steak tartare without breaking them, a task which he is vastly under-qualified for. Shannon notes that the team is making the dish in a single pot, and casually lets them know that only deeply broken people do this, before walking away. Over on the Fans' entree team, Matt has given himself a blister, and nobody wishes to inquire exactly how.

Seidl wary of F1 being in position where B-teams are necessary (Motorsport.com, Edition: Australia)

McLaren Formula 1 boss Andreas Seidl hopes that the sport does not develop into a position where a team needs a junior partner in order to compete at the ...

“And I have full confidence that we actually have a good system in place. “And feedback loops in both directions, which we appreciate a lot. “It’s about principle, and what should F1 be in the future. Again, we think that F1 should be a championship of constructors. “Again, we just want to make that clear. I still hope we find solutions here, because clearly the target we're having the ambition is not to have a second team, for example.”
