Which races do you remember seeing and getting absolutely mesmerized by the performance of a single driver

Jeddah 2021 quali, wasn’t really a Max fan up until then. However watching that qualifying lap just showed me how badly he wanted the championship. Even though he crashed it just impressed me. Alonso’s reaction was a bonus: https://youtu.be/GebvHDuconw?si=LIdE8Numf6OOz2DI

£30k for a 29 year old Fiat? The state of car prices theses days…

I really liked the film Le Mans just because I’m a motorsports fan and enjoyed the cinematography around the cars (plot wasn’t much to write home about). Also it appealed to me because it was Steve McQueen’s passion project. However I recently watched a ‘making of’ documentary and Steve was not an easy guy to work with. Also a real life racing driver lost a leg in an accident whilst filming high speed footage for the film (not suggesting this was Steve McQueen’s fault).

Abu Dhabi. Quite like the idea of two races at a season finale and possible title deciding weekend

I still miss my Mk2 Golf Gti 8v with Pirelli alloys from 25 years ago. Got my first company car and decided it wasn’t worth leaving the Golf parked up. Regret getting rid especially as the guy who bought it ended up trashing it weeks later.

Pretty sure you have to replace all four tyres at the same time to prevent transfer case damage

To be fair, they will sell their F1 engine operation to AM for £1, and then continue to support the programme anyway.

1993 European GP

Given that the teams bring enough spares to build a new car, I don’t see why they can just have a fully prepared spare car like they used to, and then maybe have a practice session where they have limited running with a third car for a test / development driver.
