I didn't enjoy that race whatsoever. Lots of anticipation and no fun at the end.

Been listening to a couple of episodes of F1’s Beyond the Grid podcast and just seen there is one with Alfa Romeo’s head of strategy Ruth Buscombe, so might be a good one to find out and listen to, not listened to it myself yet but could be worth a listen to learn a bit more about the strategy side of things.

I quite like the look of this, but I can't work out if it'll suit me at all or I'll really regret getting it :lol:

You should definitely buy and it you should definitely wear it backwards out in public. It'll look really cool.

Can’t believe it was 7 years ago already.

From the midpoint of the season Vettel and Red Bull were an unbeatable combination, winning 13 races overall and 9 in a row, his words over the team radio towards the end of the season are still quite poignant to this day, about enjoying and remembering those days as they have no idea how long they will last, this year might be the return of those days for the team.

Around here, da hood effectively means walking past stool bloke, car bint, fat cow at no.5, degenerate neighbour bloke, and the drunken skank, so no, it's not a suitable cap for da hood.

I'd hate to think what San Andreas would have looked like had those been the characters of the gang rather than who we got.

I kind of like that hat too :shifty: But I know I'd never wear it.

Can't believe I'm saying this, but I'm disappointed there doesn't seem to be a Ted's notebook for the US Grand Prix. With all those celebs about, there was potential for gold there.

Oh, God. Can someone please try and get the map of San Andreas into Watch Dogs Legion. I know it's probably impossible, but it would be so entertaining.

I starts watching some classic season reviews. I've started with the first VHS I ever owned, the 1994 season review. Obviously it has everything, unbelievable tragedy, controversy and a classic finale.



It's very 90s in presentation but considering what happened that year, it's treats it with real sensitivity. It was also probably the first season of the modern era in many respects.

EDIT: Dammit, it prevents sharing it. Cold link as follows:
