It feels like the last 107 years of Indycar Racing frankly. Reminds us all how courageous and committed the drivers are in chasing the victories they so passionately desire. You can live your life how you choose. I don’t regret how I’ve lived mine, despite the risks I accepted
So,
@townsendbell

Bruh. U might be jet lagged. When there are 4 cars in plain sight trundling at 5 mph u slow TF down. For whatever reason. Especially in practice. 26 cars over 1.8 miles is like 50 cars over 3.5 miles (typical F1 circuit length).
You’re on a flying lap. You don’t expect someone to be trundling at 5mph on the racing line. Had a good debate with
@leighdiffey
about this tonight but for me that’s not on the guy on the push lap.

I tried to retire from driving when I was 30 years old. Over the next year I worked with Charlie to develop a system for improving race control with live data streams. He was and will continue to be the gold standard for talking softly while carrying a big stick. Terrific person
"He loved Formula 1, and Formula 1 loved him. He was Mr Formula 1."
Remembering Charlie Whiting.
Watch the special tribute to Charlie, from those who knew him best.
