So I have several F1-related books that I'm offering to you goons if you want them:



Anyone who emails me at krushgroove169@gmail.com gets first crack at the whichever ones you want, just pay postage and one or all of them are yours. Most of these are gifts from the secret santa thing a while back and I've read them all but they're all in great condition. I'm in the UK so postage outside the UK will be a bit expensive, but if you want 'em you can have 'em.

poo poo, just pay postage? How much for all delivered to Newcastle?

I got a whole bunch of good books too but not sure I wanna give em away to goons. Jackie Stewart's book, Niki Lauda's which has been out of print forever, book about le mans 55, book about the 65 indy 500 with a fatal crash, book about how to drive race cars by Ross Bentley, 2 books about the silver arrows and Hitler. U goons jelly. Also hail Nico only the second driver ever to WDC along with his dad just like Their Damon.

Has Keke ever done the podium interview? I feel like he'd be just as good as Piquet and this is the year to do it.

Nico Rosberg really is turning into a passive aggressive little sod. Lewis is on insta with his bling. Nico is on twitter at the factory, hanging with his family and now talking about a charity run with pro-footballers.

You know, I gave the FIA medical team a lot of poo poo after Alonso's accident but they really must have a great medical staff if they can perform tests on a ghost.
