Well now I know what I’ll be wearing on my head every day for all time.

Even on Christmas Day, it seems I don’t know any better than to visit a (former) race circuit.
Festive wishes to all of you 🎄
Isn’t she just. The 2CV remains adored, and in my possession, I might add.
Oh, I still have both. The 4CV has some especially interesting provenance. I’ll have to tell you about it…
Haven’t posted here in a while. But I thought you all ought to meet my Renault 4CV
My declaration at 5.30am that ‘we’ve lost the Ashes’ may have been a tad premature
Who could ever forget the Citroën DS21 GT3?
On The River’s 45th anniversary, here are two of my favourite things:
- The album itself
- Foster, an adored member of my family
Man, I miss that cat
Congratulations!
Is it safe to assume then, that nobody on this planet has heard more Carlos Reutemann stories this past decade than Angel?
I’m proud to work in motorsport. But never wanted to just be the poor man’s version of Dad. No disgrace because he was great, but I am lesser.
Think of him every time I’m at a track. Missing him and his advice greatly right now.
Hopefully see friendly faces at Brands this weekend.
Not every day you wake up and immediately get to listen to a new Born to era Springsteen track.

Another Springsteen release imminent? Sure. I’m okay with that.
Five years without MA.
She’s missed a lot. HOWEVER, the more she misses, the more those of us left are making the most of the time we’ve got. It ain’t no sin to be glad you’re alive.
Be good to those you love and enjoy today 🏁🧡
Oui
Race track 🏁
Just revisiting one of the great nights of my life. I’ll never forget it.
Stopped at the supermarket on the way home from work tonight. Needed lemons.
They didn’t have any. But I figured Le Mans was close enough.
Was dispatched to the supermarket for broad beans.
Didn’t find any, but this seemed pretty similar. Should do the job.
What a two car garage that would be…
Good news: My Citroën 2CV is back on the road 🇫🇷
Also good news: I’ve bought a Renault 4CV 🇫🇷
Always
Popped to big Tesco. Didn’t get anything useful.
However…
At the Oulton Park Gold Cup for the first time in a couple of years this weekend.
So in the spirit of Dad, here’s what he would have photographed for his Motor Sport column.
Forever the greater motorsport Arron. Someone who’ll always be thought of at this meeting 🏆
A good day at work.
At a racing circuit…
A truly delightful morning.
Pottered into Le Touquet earlier today and accidentally stumbled across a classic car gathering. Much was French, and I was bloody delighted.
Today’s motorsport question I wasn’t asked, but have answered anyway:
What could it have looked like if, instead of racing an RS500 in the BTCC, Asquith decided to enter F1 with Karl Jones in the mid-80s?
So that’s what Michael Stipe has for lunch
Popped out to the shops for breakfast. Found something to eat, but also…
