This is going to take the top end of the EV market from Tesla, no ifs, ands, or buts. Porsche can actually put a $100,000 interior in a $100,000 car and the differences in overall build quality will be laughable.

I, for one, cannot wait for the Mercedes-Benz GLiB, GLuD, GLeF and GLaR.

They’ve got some room in their naming structure, so why not fill it in? GLB, GLD SUV, GLD Coupe, GLF through GLR......

F1 does need more of this. I’d say sports in general do too, but especially F1.

Now I just want Tacos. Never mind the 1000hp hyper car.

This is the kind of filthy hot take I’m looking for.

The Porsche Carrera GT. Yes, I’m fully aware that it’s an engineering masterpiece and it is beloved by people who want their car to beat them up rather than the other way round.

And what does Bernie think about this?

Hellen Keller could tell Bernie Ecclestone was ruining modern F1

With regards to the headline: “duh.” Bernie was charging extremely large sanctioning fees to host races of which he got a massive portion. The amount of greed that man possessed is insane. The way he ran the sport was not tenable. The fact that it took this long to get rid of him is ridiculous.

As it goes by the screen the first time in a qualifying report the commentator notes “The Mercedes makes a wonderful sort of American V8 type noise, not the type

Come here Mercedes I want to give you a huge hug

Here, try this:

Did you not see that pass on Max? That was ballsy. The team said that passing Verstappen had to happen, and soon. Within one lap he had the position. Say what you will about the superiority of the MB, but Nico put on a clinic with that pass.

My Favorite image of Keke....that picture is so awesome, it’s enough to tempt me to start smoking again!

This is a reminder to me of how small Formula One drivers are. That Mercedes looks positively massive compared to him.

That’s not a rumble. This is a rumble:

Ever listen to Zed Zed Top while driving your Zed oh six?

I had a 1997 Mercury Sable wagon, and it actually took me a while to discover the hidden, fold away rear-facing jump seats in the back. It folded into the cargo floor, so I did not find it until I went to check if the car had a spare. I ignored the 75-lb weight limit and stuffed adults back there whenever possible.
