Missed it but hands down Ham.

Folks, they ALL whine.

OK... ...not literally "all".

But the simple fact is that to get to the highest level in racing
clearly takes the kind of person who is very likely to be a self-centred
ego-maniac.

If it seems like Verstappen whines the most at the moment, it's because
the microphone is in front of him most often.

In fairness, he had just had half of his side-pod ripped open through no
fault of his own. However, he does seem to have forgotten some of the
sharp-elbowed moves he used to pull when he was GR's age.

They're really no different than hockey players...

....who never think that anything they ever do could possibly be a penalty.

In a car significantly faster than Russell's (faster than everyone
except Sergio), and with the confidence of his ability to pass everyone
-- even in a sprint race -- one might have opted to discretion on those
opening laps. So I might suggest that perhaps having his sidepod ripped
open was, to some degree, a fault of his own.

And yes, Max does have a bit of a history of getting his elbows out.
Beauty -- and fault -- lies in the eye of the beholder.

A racing incident.

Russell had clearly gained enough overlap to be allowed room at the apex.

He got it.

Verstappen was clearly entitle to room on the outside...

....but Russell's car understeered a little too much.

Could he have slowed a little and missed Verstappen? Yeah... ...almost
certainly.

But the judgment was too fine to call.

But I do not think that that attitude was so in the past.
What seems to have changed?

Many spectators have talked about how they had pleasant
interchanges with F1 drivers in years past.

But, now days !!!
Could you imagine being assigned (and required to complete a year)
as something like a college freshman with someone
like Max, or Lewis, or Fernando as your dormitory roommate?

Or if, by some fluke of disaster, you were stuck on a regular
commercial flight in economy class and had to sit next
to any of those for an international flight?

Perhaps.

I've got a hernia.

Driving the car I could probably do.

Prepping the car.

Loading the trailer.

Unloading the trailer.

Etc.?

Not so much.

:-(

I know those feelings very, very well.
And it just keeps getting tougher as you get older.

Good news is I've now got the Stohr rocket car,
the Elden, and the 962 sold. It would be nice to
finish 'neatening up' and get the last one sold.
If not, well, guess then it's someone else's problem !!!

As you know, I've generally attacked the big ICSCC schedule.
I'm missing this years opener at Portland.
I do intend on doing our / IRDC first race at Pacific Raceways.

Thanks.

I've got surgery schedule for May 11...

....which means I'll miss our Vintage weekend (May 13-14)...

....and depending on recovery time, I might miss the May 27-28 weekend.

Fingers crossed.

Well I hope with things returning to normal, we'll see you up here this
year!

Cheers, and stay safe!

Oh dear, I'm sorry but no.

It is only possible to be racist if you're white and you say/do
something black or brown people don't like. It is not possible to be
racist against white people and/or Jewish people.

Ask Diane Abbott she's the expert on all this along with most of the
UK Labour party actually.

Money, mostly; at least, that's what I suspect.
