'Wacky Races'- Refers to an old cartoon. Relates to reader. Relates the race to a cartoon and conjures images of anarchy and chaos found in cartoons, foreshadowing the havoc.
'me perched in the boot'- Verb 'perched' builds a comical image.
'Coming, coming'- shows laid back life style. Juxtaposes with the west and definite timings of Formula One races.
'Just as'- Turning point
'The two donkeys were almost dwarfed by their entourage'- Usually used to describe people accompanying very important people. Entourage for 2 donkeys creats humour, but also suggests how important the race is.
'their jockey's perched on top'- 'perched' used again this time for the jockeys.
