Apologies to whoever stole the Apple AirPods from my car - they’re a bit waxy, so best clean them out. As for the golf clubs, their lie-angle is for a midget, so beware. And that stuff on the coat it dog jizz. Otherwise, enjoy.
Staggered Lewis not on the honours list. And I don’t buy into the tax bollocks either. He wears a Union Jack with pride, he’s the most famous British sports person, and the greatest champion - of any sport - that this country has produced. Travesty.
So if people start brake-testing in grass-roots motorsport, they can now just accept a slap on the wrist and a post-race time penalty? The wider implications of the F1 stewards’ decisions are worrying.
Bottas is by any normal yardstick an exceptional driver. Anyone who drives an F1 car without spearing it off is much better than all armchair experts would allow themselves to believe. But he’s just not in the Hamilton/Verstappen league.
I couldn’t give a shit about Lewis out of the car. Why do people spend so much time worrying about all that jazz? He’s that rare thing - massively fast, doesn’t make mistakes, and he never stops pushing. He’s arguably the best sportsman this country has ever produced.
Feels like the wrong time to post about buying a new car, but I suppose life goes on. Ordered this a long time ago - and it’s now arrived. Very excited. M2 Comp, manual, 763M wheels and clear glass!!
Sabine-Schmitz-Kurve on the Nordschleife!
➡ Highest honour for "the ambassador of the Nürburgring".
➡ First corner on the Nordschleife receives her name
➡ Schmitz grew up a few metres away - in Nürburg
➡ Official ceremony: 11 September, 6h race Nürburgring Endurance Series
For those asking about a Sabine film - production has already started on an upcoming tribute to her – and we’ll release more information on when and how fans can watch it later in this current series.
McLaren now has a better F1 race team than Ferrari. That would have been a laughable statement not long ago - massive respect for what they’ve achieved.
Need to tell you all that Fred and Paddy are two of the kindest people I’ve worked with. We’re good pals and I’ve never felt remotely picked-on. I’m small - so what? We all give as good as we get. And who gets to slide the supercars? Me! It’s just telly, and I’m loving it!
People trot out the usual ‘daddy’s money’ shit about Stroll, but anyone who can pedal a 1000hp F1 car like that is talented. And he’s been good this year.
In the spirit of delivering exciting social media content, I’ve bought a new car. It’s exactly the same as the one I had before, but more yellow. And less crashed.
Bottas has handled a very tricky situation with immense dignity. Mercedes wouldn’t have had the same success without him. Team player. (Apart from being a bit naughty yesterday)
Slippery slope when people are told that unless they perform a specific gesture they are not acknowledging a problem or respectful of a situation. Have to respect the rights of the individual.
An influencer just offered my pal
@Litchfield_UK
the chance for him to put suspension on his Yaris GR for free and pay him £25k for the privilege, plus a percentage of future sales. He knows who he is. Might tell you his name one day. Shameful.

One. Cleverest car I’ve driven in yonks. Beautiful, rare and interesting. Video soon.

Can’t engage with most of the Max/Lewis punch-up on here. The comment I can consistently engage with is that if Max had chosen to let Lewis have Copse on lap 1 at Silverstone, he’d probably already be champ.
Roborace is the world first driver-less/autonomous motorsports category.
This is one of their first live-broadcasted events.
This was the second run.
It drove straight into a wall.
I wanted to do this for a living because as a kid I watched a bloke slide cars around on the telly. Can’t quite believe he’s 70 today - he behaves like a 35 year old. Happy birthday

To those defending it with ‘rules is rules’. crazy nature of the race, the value Vettel added to it with a superb drive (surprise driver of the season for me). Is there any advantage to having 500g less fuel at the end of the race? Makes ordinary fans lose faith in the sport.
Bugatti has broken the 300mph barrier. I repeat, Bugatti has broken the 300mph barrier. On 2 August 2019, Andy Wallace hit a vmax of 304.77mph in a go-faster Chiron at Ehra-Lessien. Full story and vid on and YouTube channel. What a menacing beast.
