The,"essence of racing" and all that, is all very laudable and lovely...then a young driver dies and someone will say, "well, he died doing what he loved" and a Mother somewhere sobs uncontrollably.

It is not the first time Rus has crashed pushing hard on the last lap.
Even without assistance.

It's actually the 3rd time RUS has done this, all at the end of a race and the craziest stat of all is that all of Carlos Sainz's F1 GP wins have come when RUS does this.

Oh my goodness, have we been so shortsighted as to suggest Paul be the new F1 channel announcer? Forget Kimi, we need Paul in the commentator booth for the F1 channel.

Excellent writing! Suzuka is one of my favorite tracks in the world. I hope it doesn't pour!

It always seemed to rain for the Japan F1 GP.
Just stumbled across this wonderful photograph, from 1976. (Jame's right shoe....interesting) It rained that year, too. |

"Of course he didn't listen to me. For James, one world title was enough. He had proved what he needed to prove. To himself and anyone who doubted him. And two years later, he retired. When I saw him next in London, seven years later, me as a champion again, him as broadcaster, he was barefoot on a bicycle with a flat tire, still living each day like his last. When I heard he died age 45 of a heart attack, I wasn't surprised. I was just sad. People always think of us as rivals but he was among the very few I liked and even fewer that I respected. He remains the only person I envied." |

Fernando Alonso has resigned with Aston Martin ending speculation he would move to Red Bull or Mercedes. The deal extends to the end of 2026 guaranteeing Alonso will be in the grid for the new formula set to take place at the start of 2026.
