As it turned out, the true story was even wilder

Sadly, Keke got his WDC in part due to tragic circumstances. Originally, it was Didier Pironi who was leading the championship following Gilles Villeneuve’s tragic accident, before he had his own at Hockenhaim which caused him to retire. During the latter, Didier was 12 points clear of Keke (who was behind John…

You have to remember that this was still the era where DNFing was considered to be normal and it was expected that drivers wouldn’t finish one or two races in a year. This is where that rule came from. It was only once cars started to become more reliable that it was dropped.

Lauda didn’t take poles since he correctly identified that Prost was a stronger qualifier than him that year, so instead he concentrated on race setup.

Apparently, former WDCs all get free access to the paddock. Now, there’s talk of rescinding this for Piquet.

Hamilton is better loved in Brazil than Piquet is, which is probably why he’s lashing out.

Remember when anything “Grand” in Chrysler’s lineup just meant a larger or stretched version of the vehicle in question?

This, as good as a show like Trapped can be, it can’t help but feel too familiar and get passed over as yet another isekai.

The Grand Inquisitor is Pauan, who knows where their organs are (admittedly, I was hoping he was dead, revealing that the Rebels GI was a different one, being played by Jason Isaacs). As for Reva, she looked to be stabbed closer to the gut, so it is possible nothing that would instantly kill her was hit (not like…

Piquet can’t seem to stand having another Brazilian driver on the same level or better than him. That Hamilton now has honorary Brazilian citizenship probably incenses him even more, especially with how popular Lewis is due to him being a massive Senna mark. Heck, Lewis should race under the Brazilian flag in Sao…

There has been talk of keeping him away from races and not giving him a pass to them.

Bad day to be Juri Vips. His previous use of the n-word on Twitch already put his future with the team in question, but this incident basically had Red Bull pull the trigger.

This, plus toss Randy Pobst into the mix. Him and Jason had some great chemistry together.

Still not sure why they didn’t get Jason Cammisa for this.

They probably realized they could never get away with such a narmy name as “Savage Opress.”

but two people surviving mortal lightsaber wounds through sheer determination.

Does that mean I’ve watched over 100 episodes of Hunter Hunter?

As someone who enjoyed ZZ when I first saw it, it’s great to see the appreciation the series is now getting. Heck, just seeing one of the series saddest (and most effed up) plot threads referenced in Unicorn was already a treat.

My theory is that’s what they’re immediately signing up customer teams. Having more teams on the grid with their car might help put a bit more pressure on the ACO not to screw around.

That, or the sense that the ACO will favor its own regulations with the BOP. Or at least that’s what Glickenhaus thinks since he’s gone on record that he believes the ACO will never let Porsche or other LMDh runners win at Le Mans.
