Irvine’s business dealings
In what may rank as the most boring thing I’ve ever posted (and there’s been some candidates), this will come tops. What I’ve made available here (part 1 1mb pdf) and here (part 2 1mb also) are the details from a case that was pursued against, amongst others, former F1 driver Eddie Irvine relating to part of his business dealings in a well known Dublin pub (Cocoon). Most of it is incomprehensible to normal people, but to people like me with a financial and legal background I love reading this sort of stuff. The fact that it relates to Mr. EI makes it even better 
He knew Mr EI very well and stated that Mr EI was quite hot headed.
From a Formula 1 point of view, what I find interesting is that a lot of the arguing and fighting that went on as part of this took place whilst Irvine was still driving - surely distractions he could have done without!
To get some background to the case look here.
