They're getting new PU's and I did an oil change on my Honda vtec today, had to use a chain type wrench to remove old canister filter that was on so tight and the oil is a 0W20 type, it's like water!

Verstappen is the Ultimate Driving Machine: an ace at both F1 and sim racing.

03:05 - 03:28: "Interestingly, Max - like many top sim drivers - has a few little tricks to help. Listen to this: that grinding rubbing noise is a tire sound in i-racing. So Max turns the engine all the way down and the tires all the way up. And this is his way of knowing when the tires are close to their limit. Rather than feeling it like in a real race car, he also listens to it in i-racing."

04:22 - 04:28: "Max won the US GP this year at the Circuit of the Americas and was seen in i-racing lobbies just three hours later."

Well. Fred Vasseur has conceded that the RB floor cannot be copied, how long will it take for that to filter through to Wolff after he calms down from his excitedness from seing the pic of the underside of Checo's damaged 19 car.

I wonder who's gonna be next years main personal sponsor of Max now that Jumbo announced to stop with sports sponsoring next year.

Not that I'm concerned Max won't find a new one

I think it's potentially a bigger concern for the sponsored road cycling team (Team Jumbo-Visma), although they of course also had a very succesful year too with Wout van Aert (my favorite road cycling athlete) and Jonas Vingegaard.

Wow Checo just scrapes through in 15th and a last second sprint sees a change to the top ones.
