Honestly, the ESPN coverage of Bahrain was the best viewing experience I’ve ever had as a US-based F1 fan. Sorry F1 experience, ESPN’s more than enough for me. Gotta save that dough to buy more Mother’s polish! (which I actually did get after seeing a number of folks on the F1 subreddit saying they liked it, then…

That is why the above pictured space is such a nice place to be. There is a lot to be said about simplicity.

It’s ridiculous that NASCAR and IndyCar still don’t have events at COTA.

Loud exhaust is the worst.

Any environmental argument:

No and no. Many ex-military members are rejected from serving as officers because they’re ex-military. There are of course exceptions but those usually are due to nepotism.

If I’m going to be outside in the sun, I’m wearing a hat because it’s better than glopping zinc oxide on the bald spot and what’s thinning. If I’ve been wearing a hat and end up inside somewhere, the hat stays on because I’ll have hat hair with what’s left and what else am I supposed to do with it? Carry it around in…

Like most things when it comes to success, I find that advice from failures is usually better than advice from success.

Having your heart broken. By that, I mean you are physically ill because of it. Toilet heaving, fetal position sobbing, “that was THE ONE” dumped.

seems like the luckiest guy in the world actually. he does really dangerous things for work, and having had only three accidents and surviving them all seems like extraordinary luck

Limiting the options to start out is a safe move. More gadgets and gizmos mean more possibilities for defects and servicing.

We spell it “check” in the U.S., dude. Knowing that not every English-speaking country spells things the same way is also a thing.

Did you hear diarrhea was hereditary?

The Jalopnik version should be “tires are round”

Don’t underestimate their space prowess. Apart from their space firsts, they kept MIR running for years, with chewing gum and duct tape. Their own shuttle copy, Buran, flew a couple or orbits and landed to within a meter or two of it’s mark, BY REMOTE CONTROL. The current ISS crews have as their daily driver, one of…

That is true, but I think Bottas is being underrated. I think he will be really good this year. I like him a hell of a lot better than Rosberg, that’s for sure.

“until everyone collectively agrees to pay more to keep our roads in tip-top shape, they’re going to continue to be a mess”

Your name is dipshit.
