The Official Formula One Thread!

It’s all fun even working through the holidays with “sausage making” - enjoy the reviews.

Was just looking at FIA’s Auto journal and saw this Rolex advert (below) that brought me back to my “wonder years”. It reminded me of why most fans watch. The excitement without having to fiddle with all the minutiae in the code.



And the inset photo is what caught my attention…


Air, my friends, air…the ultimate lightness of racing.

Yes, dangerous - but was often the difference between the timid and the bold drivers. Like the pilot’s saying: “There are old drivers and there are bold drivers; but there are no old bold drivers.” To Sir Jackie who led the safety charge in the old days.

Sorry for the graininess - it’s a screenshot.

Here’s to another season ahead - now I’ve got to go to a Zoom to develop 2023 training material.
