Got to think Ocon is the ultimate 4D chess player in all this - doesn’t want to race, but also doesn’t want to get in trouble. Elegantly solved

Brilliant Formula Ford Festival today - excellent racing in every FF race, albeit v v close to the line at times. Pity now that every ‘off’ is an automatic SC or Red Flag

Not saying the debauchery of the early 2000s passed me by but…writing for the student paper the lead singer of a then big band asked me where he could get some drugs and I gave directions to the nearest Boots

Periodic reminder that my books Super Touring and Legend of the Formula Ford Festival are out in the wild. If you like a copy - [email protected] - if you’ve read and liked either please say something nice on Amazon

At some point F1 is going to have an awful accident at one of these concrete lined street circuits

I mean what is the point of the Madring? There are so many good circuits in Europe, especially if the zero run off criteria is applied to permanent venues

Both the Plato and RACER news speak to the same problem in motor sport - there is no money outside F1 on either a sponsorship or paid for content basis

The EasyJet news makes me really quite sad, another business that will just become another PE owned business offering minimum product for maximum price in order to service a fake debt.

Occasional reminder I wrote a book about the Super Touring era of BTCC. I think it’s kind of ok, if you’d like to buy a copy, it’s in the usual places or DM me and I can do a deal

Is it ever going to cool down in the uk again?

Would that thunder and lightning in Mexico City forecast for Sunday happen to be made by the sponsors demanding a more friendly broadcast slot

Having one green screen and one real onsight studio for the World Cup really highlights just how awful the green screen studios are - for anything. Simpler but authentic looks so much better

Having done my fair share of off tube tv over the years - anything done 1000s miles away will always lose the sense of occasion

Hydration break has killed the Germany vs Côte d’Ivoire game #fifa

Seeing all my kids friends siblings going to proms reminds me of my own experience. Last night of sixth form and last exam was leavers ball, but also HIM were playing nearby on Deep Shadows tour. Under significant parental and peer pressure went to the prom. Still regret it

Yes timezones, but my goodness this could be better scheduled for European audiences

Quiet reminder my book Super Touring is out now - amazon.co.uk/Super-Touring-W… You can get it in various bookshops but I’ve got a few at home I can do a deal on #supertouring #btcc

If this was my local council sorting the Monaco pot hole we’d be looking at an October restart

My book Super Touring has been out in the wild for a few weeks. If you’ve read it and liked it, I’d love to hear from you. I’ve also got a few at home if anyone wants a signed or deal copy #btcc #supertouring

A small moment of personal joy today, heading out of work to the nearest Waterstones and seeing my new book there on its release day. I can trace writing this one through some tough personal and professional times so great to see it in the wild
