Where's Ben when you need him?
The @FIA must act NOW! I've just come across a TV programme called 'Drive and Survive' which apparently is quite popular with the young and I've never seen and heard so many fu**s and fu**ings in all my life. It must be taken off air immediately ...
Boxing Day Brands Hatch was always the highlight of Needell Christmases! Paddock Hill Grandstand, rug across knees, turkey sandwiches and a thermos full of tomato soup - heaven!
Now though it's all about #SaintsFC and the start of our miraculous escape from relegation ... #COYR
Just picked up last ever weekly edition of
@autosport
so thought it good time to remember this Christmas edition 54 years ago!
Still find it unbelievable that I opened that magazine entered the competition and made it onto the Grand Prix grid nine years later.
Thank you Autosport
They made me so I can't leave them ...
Not the same but should be as great monthly
@autosport!!
More upset @FIA!
F1 director got the boot so F2 director Marques takes his place but now the new F2 director Janette Tan is on her way out before she even gets to direct a race! Oh, and respected F1 steward Tim Mayer has also been given the boot ... what is going on??
Having won the pot, did Max really need to stir the pot ...

More fireworks in the sky than on the track but still a great spectacle at Las Vegas!!
Huge congratulations to George and Lewis for the British one-two and of course Max for another World Championship crown.
Next year should be epic …
Stand out qualy efforts from George, Pierre (one of the nicest guys @F1) and Yuki (for goodness sake just put him in the Red Bull) but awful woe for Williams ...
Just caught up with the Vegas news - get in there Lewis - and happened across @SkyCricket coverage of Abu Dhabi cricket with an awful, artificial crowd sound playing non stop in the background making it unwatchable ...

I've been a fan for a long time. :)

Occasionally wondered why @F1 cars were firing sparks out the back again as thought metal skids had been outlawed. Now find they let them back to help preserve the ride height plank!!
Thought the purpose of the plank was to stop stupidly low ride heights ...
Thought I'd better tell the Blues that I do these every Monday evenings ...
