And if it did hook up, issues keeping the front wheels down!

“However, with a reputed 186-mile per hour top speed, the bike is still butt-clenchingly quick.”

No, but my wife is =D. My father in law was so crushed that he stopped watching F1 for years. Then his daughter married me and we bonded over F1 and martinis.

TIL: “kolache” is a real word, and appears to refer to a small pastry similar to a hand-held fruit tart.

I want to at least slap and in some cases as much as murder people who do the following things:

I’d say it was better than solid...*for its time*

Just this past weekend, I saw a gorgeous, tastefully modified C7 Z06 in a parking garage, looked inside to see it was automatic, and was scoffing just as the owner arrived...in a wheelchair. That was awkward.

I had 2 run-ins with the law (and got two nice tickets) before I’d had my license for 6 months.

Sorry to be pedantic, but 453.6" is nearly 38 feet. I only care because I mentally compute car lengths vs known long-jobbies like the early 90's GM wagons and last generation suburbans.

Please, everyone, stop using “quick” and “fast” as though they were interchangeable. If you tolerate it, you’re part of the problem.

Pet peeve: “Quick” and “fast” are not interchangeable. Aren’t journalists and writers supposed to be MORE familiar with the English language and its usage than the rest of us?

Unsolicited non-techy perspective:

1. Vodka is flavorless by nature, except for the generally-unpleasant taste of ethanol. Gin solves this! Who are these fools drinking vodka martinis? Bah!

FWIW Kubica’s arm was nearly severed in the accident, but his injuries weren’t life-threatening. He did have significant blood loss because it took them so long to extricate him from the skewered car.

They dropped it a while ago, though I didn’t realize that until you asked. I am now sad. The Ayrton Senna Foundation continues to do good things in Brazil and I always liked that they included a quiet shoutout (is that an oxymoron?).

This is great news (all James May style), but how are they going to handle the commercial-free pay TV broadcast fed into a commercial-infested free-ish TV paradigm?

Maybe in a few years, after they’ve depreciated down to a nicely broken in well-equipped sedan with sporty looks for $15-20k.

First, holy crap he got LAUNCHED backwards in spectacular fashion, I was doing that “lol/whoa” chortle and cuing up slo-mo immediately.

First 3, if that’s allowed:
