Yes.

The relic is thinking about his minions:

That guy always makes me smile.

To be fair, doesn’t every other driver? He showed incredible restraint after not making Q3. Vettel was a whiny little prick last race, talking Torpedoes, for instance.

That would be quite OK with me: ROS getting a WDC this year would be great; not just for me, but for the sport. I mean, Merc is still unbeatable so it’s (almost) certain one of them will win. I hope I’m wrong.

F1 is all a spectacle: smoke & mirrors, shades & blinds. Bernie probably has a kill-switch in his hand to sabotage Ham. (Hey, we’re rumor-mongering, aren’t we?)

Paddon be like:

Funny you should post this - just watched that early this morning when I couldn’t sleep, on Red Bull TV. Spectacular. Gutted when Latvala crashed out; treacherous terrain.

As much as I sh*t on Vee-Dub and wouldn’t own one, I seriously admire the GTI. Spacious, sporty & quick. My bud & some friends came over to visit a few years ago - he has an MKIV, I believe, with the VR6 and I kid you not, 5 grown people crawled out of that little bugger, then each took their bags out. I couldn’t…

Ah, yes! I envy my brother greatly for having one.

I’ll make sure my wife doesn’t read your post coz that’s the only truck she wants. It’s just gorgeous.

If this were ever stateside, it would be the ultimate. Evo f-in wagon. I’d give a kidney for one.

Interesting. I’ve always liked the sound of the VQs myself. I guess one likes what one likes.

Thank you! Kept scrolling & scrolling and was starting to get worried that no one had suggested a WRX/STi wagon. It is THE best of all worlds.

My sentiments exactly. I’m sure it would get real claggy too, as David Hobbs might put it, and hamper visibility.

I scrolled down for this, and I leave satisfied.

I pity poor sods who purchase an RX8 thinking all they’d need to do is do biannual maintenance. Otherwise, RX8s are awesome, more so if one can wrench. (or has a second car)

A relatively new F1 fan myself. Stumbled on a race early Sunday morning in 2008 when I couldn’t sleep, and have been obsessed ever since. Wish I were a fan in the V10 era; they seem magnificent.

It was Monza; I think I found it. The entire clip is worth a watch:

That relic may still be around then, you’re right. I sincerely hope not. Garlic, a wooden cross and a stake should prevent that.
