Yup. They'll be some convergence as they iron the gremlins out.

A decent start, I think.

BOW BEFORE OUR MOTORSPORTS PROWRESS!

(Half hoping I jinx George with that...)

That was way, way better than I expected. I stand corrected, @ianmcc-ev.bsky.social!

I hope Liberty Media/FPM get a handle on the battery SoC graphics, given how vital they are.

Thank all that is holy Ground Effect is gone.

I'll admit it's been better than I expected!

Me thesis is that he's so slow, the vibrations aren't as severe.

Or it's finally rattled his last few braincells out.

Once again, a decision by Race Control favours the cars with a little Bull on them.

You know the real crime in all this?

We don't get to see Lance show off his talents, poor guy.

We're British - we have a reputation to uphold. Airports and sporting events mean it's socially acceptable to drink at any time!

(Though it's a coffee in this instance!)

Just noticed that was an album!

Is that a Lotus Europa?

Caravans - ruining everyone's fun the world over.

Lovely photo.

Can someone fill the Englishman in on what the pastry thing is?

Shiny side up, Jeff. Good to see you getting up and about, mate. Hang in there.

I had the misfortune to watch the wrong game.

And be born in the wrong country, it seems...

Hope you feel brighter soon. Early start tomorrow!

I am absolutely convinced that if a mainstream retailer made cute kids clothes - the kind with dinosaurs, race cars, unicorns, etc - in adults sizes, they'd make an absolute killing.

Can't recall the number of times I've walked out of a shop muttering "wish they made that in my size..."

That pair happen to be two of *the* most gorgeous motorbikes around. Bravo.

Evergreen post.

It may expecting a little much, but it would be nice if the wealthiest and best resourced rugby football union in the world could take a long hard look at themselves after this.

Absolutely shocking.

Remember when we were joint favourites with France?

Seems like a long time ago.

But what about the excellent, in-depth insight from David Flatman?

Actually, never mind.

Three F1 world champions know what they are talking about. The cars have been neutered, just so Audi can flog Q4 e-tron’s to people who eat lentils and wear itchy jumpers. Just wait for the pious advertising campaigns to come..
