From a straight up track safety perspective I do agree about Texas, but I think drivers also exercise more caution there because a win at Texas isn't going to be a career-defining move, if that makes sense? I'm not going to push myself past my limit for a win at Texas the way I would at Indy.

allegedly all that rampant colonialism means the citizens of the UK voted chicken tikka masala as their national dish and I canNOT tell you how stoked I was to not have to make mushy peas

arguably I would rather have a minivan because I think sliding doors are the coolest

I'd just gotten home from the Mexico City ePrix and I'm incapable of going to a race track without climbing around on shit and hurting myself

I had never heard of doing this before! Going to give it a try for my next saffron recipe, thank you!

In these situations, I generally come in with the mindset that the person in control of this experience (in this case Nate Kern) would not be Read more

Exhilaration and exhaustion is such a perfect way to sum up the experience! The braking also shocked me — I was surprised at how late you can leave the braking and then how damn hard you have to brake to nail the apex. I felt like I was going to get pitched over the handlebars and really had to steel myself to hold Read more

I’m really looking forward to following along with MotoGP this year! I think I’ve struggled to watch it in the past based on the fact that I couldn’t really come to grips with the experience of riding a motorcycle, as silly as that sounds. Like, I’ve never driven an open-wheel car, but I at least know what it’s like Read more
