4 more and his brother would have lived without resorting to killing the carpenter who demanded the cars in 48 hours.

I honestly think there was, Wickens left a little too much space on the inside. Was it wise to go for it given the circumstances? That’s a totally different question. I guess Rossi just felt he had to take the chance.

Yes, he was just thrown out.

In theory, I don’t fault Rossi for going for the gap. I fault Rossi for sliding sideways out of the gap, into the other driver.

I just don’t see the logic here. How does an absurd (and illegal, if you’re talking about the context of a job interview, which the combine effectively is) question in a room with a few assholes in it correspond to having your performance on the field scrutinized by the media or a fanbase?

Well, the Royals can say what they want but if Yordano Ventura had stayed at home and watched porn he’d still be alive today. And, possibly, with a better grip on his slider.

While anything is an improvement from those Honda F1 engines McLaren got rid of for Renault this year, it sounds like the team still isn’t having much luck so far. McLaren’s cars have broken down four times so far this week during testing in Barcelona, according to Sky Sports.

Based on what, outside of emotions?

We live in a world where a cop who gets caught on video being friendly is disciplined while others that get caught on video actually murdering people are unpunished.

The ‘90’ is significant because the production code names for the supra generations thus far have been A40, A60, A70, and A80. So, a mk V supra would almost certainly have the code A90.

The real story: Sergio Marchionne was desperately rushing to the meeting to sign the deal papers when his third backup Alfa Romeo Giulia burst into flames and a chauffeur became locked inside a fourth backup with no way to start the vehicle.

“Hm, that didn’t work. What if you roll it like a bowling ball? ... No? ... Now try using your mitt like a lacrosse stick.”

My solution would be to have the first baseman wear a catcher’s uniform.

I am old enough to have watched the amazing Can-Am in the early 70's. It is why I still look at stuff like Jalopnik now. It would have been a fantastic thing to have a Japanese marque compete. Yes, the big orange cars ruled then, but if this car really had 900(!) HP, it would have been game over.

Damn right. If they made a Lego set featuring me, I’d build it, glue the models and the box to a hardhat, and wear that sucker *everywhere*.

I always wondered this. How many other of the Speed sets are driver specific? My McLaren one did not have Hamilton or Button, and the Ferrari truck didn’t have Kimi (I may have my years a bit mixed up on the Ferrari). The new Mercedes F1 set doesn’t have Hamilton.

Hey LEGO, why not just include at least one female minifig head and “girl” hair piece in every LEGO set with a minifig? Super easy, and lets the kids decide if the character they play with is a man or a woman.

With loafers. Must have loafers.

Next should be a Honda NSX racecar with the normal garage scene, but there is a poster with Aryton Senna, in Lego form, and his birth and death years.

I’d delete it, but I guess I can’t now. This post was pretty indicative of my day yesterday... Attempts to ramble on the internet didn’t even work right.
