Think it’ll take a disaster for Palmowski to lose it. I’m very happy that Alba Larsen has had a weekend to show her skills though: been a Larsen fan since last year and despite the raw talent she’s never managed to string results together to prove it. Long may it continue for both drivers

I don't follow it, so I don't know much about it, but sending best wishes to those who have lost their lives at the IOM racing in the past week or so. Whatever your personal thoughts on racing there, let's first bring these tragedies to attention. #motorsport #motorcycle #isleofman

Turns out that, judging by this #F1academy race, its #F1 that's awful around Zandvoort, not racing in general.

I have a genuine dilemma on whether to cover the Pedo President Indycar race this weekend or not. I may watch it but not mention it, so if I'm silent about it, that's why.

A short and sweet one, and it probably made the race exciting. This post, that is. #formula1 #f1 #dutchgp #sprintrace

Lap 15. Bored now. I will be very happy when Zandvoort goes, not because the circuit isn't fun but because it's awful to race on.

You know, I don’t know if that FormulaE race was interesting or not. I just hope Brands Hatch will actually allow them to pass. If not, scrap it after a year and leave it to BSB, who always have the most monumental races at Brands

Watching the Formula E and seeing the Indycar has actually managed to start practice a day late. Well done.

Over at Cadillac F1, Graeme Lowdon is out, and Martin Budkowski is in as Team Principal. I wonder if they’ll learn from Ferrari’s eternally rotating principals from a few years ago, aka, it doesn’t help
