I agree but they like to get the season finished before the US Fiotball season starts. I just wish that they wouldn’t finish at Laguna. It’s an awesome racetrack but the races there tend to be a bit of a for […]

A driver with a fire extinguisher at Zandwoort while the marshalls are stand about idle? Not a great image.

That made me laugh out loud and my eyes water at the same time. Thanks for sharing.

Poor dote. Imagine if he had to work for a living. 🤪

What is the reason for the current single supplier contract? Commercial, on safety grounds? Personally I would prefer competition between tyre manufacturers on the track rather than at the PowerPoint […]

Nice article. I first saw Norris race in the Toyota New Zealand series & he stood out above the rest of the field many of whom had experience of the tracks & cars. Not often does an unknown driver in a field of […]

Perfectly put. They’ve also screwed up the detailed map & driver tracker to something simple & now not fit for purpose.

Like the best drivers down through the ages, he is in the best car because he has proven himself as one of the best drivers. Rather churlish to suggest that he won’t deserve a WEC win.

Lando Norris is getting a run out in practice, yes?
