I think he’s looking at the wrong end of the investigation for the leak.

Still, I suspect Max will smile as he signs that check. Maybe even laugh a little.

I’m not. I’m a casual fan of F1, and after Petit LeMans and the NHRA season-ender today, it’s all the racing I have left.

They call that plausible deniability, mate.

No, he most certainly did not.

Well, I guess we now have some idea where that “newfound speed” Mercedes conjured up for Mexico came from to get that “surprise qualifying effort.”

After flying regularly for business over a number of years, I have sub-zero empathy for either American or United airlines.

Perhaps not.

It’s far from out of reach. All it takes is one Verstappen DNF due to mechanical breakage or, uhm, incident, and a 1st or 2nd by Hamilton to tilt that scale.

Actually, the ’basket #5 is a screamin’ deal — pop-top PT Cruisers generally go for $6-8 grand. And up.

Fun article. But what inspired you to search for purple PT Losers?

I am a little. When it comes to all-out acceleration, four tires hooking up can provide a lot more thrust than two. It takes a fair amount of accelerative alchemy to overcome that kind of an advantage.

For you, Bradley:

I don’t know about this thing as a truck. I hate droop-ass “station wagons” and SUVs with a white-hot passion. And in commercial trucking, where cargo space=money, I would think needlessly shaving the height of the trailer would be exceptionally stupid. Supposed aero benefits be damned.

Mad respect for a true bon vivant. Hoist one up for me.

Except, O absolutist, there are multiple causes for the 70 percent you cite. The 30 percent is due to the sole, leading cause of road fatalities.

Please. I’m there doing a job, and people are expected — nay, commanded — to speak with me. Hell, I’ll call for it under the Brundle clause.

None at all. I’m just quick on calling people for their bullshit.

Or were told not to.
