One of my favourites growing up, Happy 80th Birthday Alan Jones! Watching him and Gilles fight it out in flexing, sliding monsters set the tone for how racing should be to me. Their broadsides were subtle, their bitching private and those who watched them, understood their level.
There’s not even an email to address your concerns to. Think seriously about about where you spend your money this Christmas. Never had any issues with Xbox.
Shocking lack of support from @PS_Support_UK . If your account is hacked over the weekend and you contact them on a Sunday. God help you if you try and stop the fraudulent activity from happening. Currently down £70 for a game I didn’t buy and no one at Sony gives a flying f***.

Dear @SOE_PSNetwork you’re more than happy to take an unauthorised payment from my account but you can’t be bothered to speak to me in person on a Sunday… sounds a lot like theft to me.
Feels like a bit of nanny-statism going on there. Let them get on with it.

Prodrive is celebrating alongside JCB, Ricardo and the whole JCB Hydromax team after the hydrogen-powered streamliner established a new FIA World Land Speed Record with an official average speed of 𝟰𝟬𝟲.𝟯𝟮𝟬 𝗺𝗽𝗵.
Driven by Wing Commander Andy Green OBE, JCB Hydromax completed the record attempt on the Bonneville Salt Flats, setting a new world benchmark for a hydrogen combustion-powered vehicle.
Following its appointment to the programme this time last year, Prodrive has played a key role, being responsible for vehicle integration and trackside operations, helping prepare both car and crew for the unique challenges of a world land speed record campaign.

Happy Birthday Davina Galica. Pioneering British F1 driver, who is 80 today! Once invited her home for tea when I was asking for her autograph, as a little boy. She declined, but I remain a fan to this day - great driver and a wonderful person!

Dear @bookingcom , you appear to have stolen money from my wife. My conclusion is based on the fact that she has contacted you five times now with not so much as a response. What’s my next step? Do I call the police?
Once again IndyCar delivering a spectacular show. Amazing racing on amazing tracks. Wild.

F1 is having a red letter day. Very silly to punish a driver for showing emotion and losing his temper when a car has failed. Smacks of the referee wanting to be a part of the conversation. Meanwhile taking a car out of the race costs you just 10s. Crackers. 🤷🏻♂️
Just idiotic to engineer a situation where the start of a grand prix clashes with the Indy 500… and on the same continent. 🤦🏻♂️
Four-way fight for the lead at Indy. It’s why this is the best race of the year. Period. Every year.

‘Negative Ghostrider, the pattern is full.’ Kyle Busch’s response to a request to draft during a race years ago. Off the bat in Cup the Shrub was a missile, whip fast on the radio, and a force of nature off it. He’s gone, just like that. I’m at a loss.

I love it that Max Verstappen is doing the @24hNBR. But please don’t make the mistake of thinking this year’s race is extra mega. It’s ALWAYS this mega. It is amusing watching F1 types ‘discover’ the race. It’s brilliant, however, to have the spotlight on GT racing. Thanks Max!
One of the most incredible, inspiring and fantastic human beings I have ever met. An example of extraordinary good, and a huge loss to a world crying out for more like him. Rest well Alex.
