.@IndyCar should call it the Penya Rhin Grand Prix. I mean, if Formula One is lazy with Grand Prix heritage, someone else should claim it.

I think they should call the IndyCar race in Barcelona next year IndyCarcelona.

Another Stirling Effort. My pencil drawing of (Sir) Stirling Moss at Dundrod. Not even a blown tyre and a Rapid Unplanned Disassembly of bodywork could stop him (& John Fitch). Legendary. Commissioned by the brilliant @CJGrandPrix (thank you Colin!) 🩶 #NGAutoArt #RSLStudio

Un 22 de octubre de 1955, Mercedes-Benz se retiraba oficialmente de todas las competiciones deportivas, especialmente de la F1, en la que había arrasado en 1954 y 55. No volverían como constructores a la F1 hasta 2010.

No photo, because I was driving, but bravo to the folks all out for a run on a steam traction vehicle in Belfast. Gridlock on the Belmont Road roundabout never looked, sounded and smelled so good! 👏
