I certainly didn't have "Ralf Schumacher comes out on Instagram" on my 2024 bingo card.

Kinda weird that they turned right back into the pits and didn't do a full cooldown lap picking up gunk on the tires. That might have put him in the margin of error for the scale. The whole field did it, so he was still off comparatively.

Huge mistake by the team. Nice to see Lewis winning again.

I had a friend last week tell me that he didn't renew the remote start subscription on his Mercedes and I looked at him aghast because when I heard those types of subscriptions were being considered a few years ago I figured that they just gave up that insane idea because who the fuck would pay that but what do I know lol

I need a 2008 Honda Accord forever.

2012 Audi A4 wagon here and I never want to get rid of it. Only "connectivity" is I can use bluetooth to make phone calls. No Car Play. No Android Auto, No navi. I can play music through SD cards and they are dirt cheap. Have almost 600gb of cards in the ashtray.
