Mercedes should definitely replace Bottas with Russell. But Bottas is right where Hamilton wants him. 

That race was absolute insanity. Baku is a great course. 

Optional DRS for the entire circuit. It would be in the spirit of the classic track, and it would undoubtedly lead to safety cars.

Fraud is a crime, and should be punished by the government. Monopoly-busting sounds good in theory, but it doesn’t seem to be working much these days. If we had a government immune to lobbying (and corruption), I’d agree with you, but the Chicken Tax is prime evidence that we don’t. You just get all of what’s bad

Finally an encouraging headline.

The Chicken Tax is pretty much everything you need to know about why the federal government shouldn’t interfere in commerce.

I want this to be true, but you lost me at “net zero-carbon.” If we had sustainable jet fuel feasibly capable of powering supersonic passenger travel, it would be much bigger news than a startup and 15 CG jets. Vaporware for days.

If it’s so boring that I don’t even notice it, am I used to it?

To many of us.

No. A revived version would probably be some front-driven electric nonsense. Leave it in the past when cars were cool.

Man, that thing was prophetic. The creased, slabby sides. The high shoulders with the unfortunate effect of making the rear wheels look small. The towering rear bumper. You see it everywhere today.

Don’t forget the other other lunar vehicle GM worked on. Oddly enough, it had a Corvair engine, which makes me wonder if that was just for testing purposes, or if they’d planned to take a liquid oxidizer up there.

Not seeing much resemblance, to be honest.

It is old. I’m rewatching all the old Top Gear on Amazon, and they just tested the Enzo. It’s so old, Top Gear wasn’t even legitimate enough yet for Ferrari to give them one to test, so they had to use Nick Mason’s.

Yellow is the best car color. 

2002 was probably the weakest year of the WRX. Just Google “Subaru glass transmission” for more.

Seems like a weird flex for Toyota, who already has some very old/well-known crossover names. It seems like these days, more crossover people would be aware of the Rav4 name than the Corolla name.

Anyway, do we have to get used to the badge if the car is already boring enough to be invisible?

Searching for the roots:

Agreed. I’ve experienced the same. EVs are cold, dead things. Fast, but soulless.
