Doesn't feel like we are back racing in a couple days.

I got my snow tires on this year and it was 70 the next week and I knew what it felt like to pit for softs for the fastest lap.

when I was in university I bought really cheap chinese winter tires and studded them one time and they basically felt like that if they were on dry pavement regardless of the temperature. They were hilariously good when it was snowing though.

honestly it was a dumb crash by me. first rainy day after a couple weeks of proper sun, and the job involved driving around the scottish coast on shite roads. had nothing in the back which was rare and i lost it going round a notoriously bad corner that i had driven probably 1000 times.

farmer was happy i went over his wall instead of through it like most cars did though. so he picked up the truck in a big forklift and dumped it at his farmhouse for us to sort out getting it recovered lol.

my phone also somehow ended up inside the dash somewhere and i got to go to the scrappies a few days later and rip it apart with a massive crowbar to get it back. which was great fun.

ty for reading my big crash story

Otmar seems Southern Nice. he’ll be nice to you up until you demand a little respect, and then that’s when all that poo poo about loyalty and “we invested in you! but of course we’ll just string you along without a real contract” comes out

Got to the mick episode of DTS. They really put it all together showing how much he sucks.

IMO the issue was when he said vettel and his mom loved him unconditionally no matter what happens. Need an abusive dad like Max has to truly reach your peak potential

Yeah Michael seemed like a loving father, which unfortunately means Mick has no grit. He doesn't have that dawg in him the way a man who learned to race on used tires does. Maybe getting fired will make him work harder?

Then they did Superleague Formula with the same basic idea which actually did have races, except so many of the football teams pulled out over time that the final season was run as national teams so you end up with Austrailia as champions. Naturally Spurs were also involved with this.

I apologize ahead of time every year to my fat-bike winter biking friends when I put the winter tires on because it's a guarantee that no snow will fall. They're still better than all seasons in cold weather, but the snow is where they shine.

Take the plunge! Okay!
