...and called the Russian leader a “first class person,”

I, for one, am glad this douche is gone from the sport. I guess he likes liars.

I remember him flying from Indy to Chi. every day to stay the night because there weren't any "high quality/lux" hotels in indy. Screw this pompous ass...

at 91, surely he's gone senile a bit..
He always was a strange man.

But I've learned a long time ago that people who are active in a certain sport/trade/etc usually only can say interesting/clever tings about the field they're active in and when they suddenly start talking politics, they're suddenly complete morons....

Zelensky is probably not the greatest leader and indeed used to be a comedian. Reagan used to be an actor...

do you think retired race car drivers have above average CTE like damage due to hard crashes ?

so last week I was taking a long road trip on the bike and didn't want to listen to music or audio books. so I thought I'd try memorizing an Edgar Allen Poe poem starting the night before and add lines while I was on the ride. I had such a hard time memorizing the lines I'm worried. It's taken me 8 or 9 days to memorize eight lines to where I can repeat it exactly and now I can repeat the 8 lines backwards. But adding more lines is not easy.

So I'm thinking a 91 year old brain can easily be confused. I mean, is it relevant to interviews a 91 year-old and posts the transcripts.

And with the Piquet interview. Nearly 70 year old guy, probably had concussion issues and is it really necessary to post the transcripts ?

However. Sir Hamilton had eloquently retold the events of his childhood at the karting track where he was the recipient of racism. At first due to his almost backstabbing attack on Rosberg - which it seems Rosberg's family embraced and befriended Hamilton at a very young age - I wasn't 100% Hamilton was believable. But I think it was foolish to doubt Hamilton because his recollections seem so likely.

My point is Hamilton has been a very good ombudsman on racial equality. The quotes from older and elderly members of the sport are just sad and not really relevant.

Nah, the accidents don't happen often enough and their main concern is TBI but safety equipment and the design of the chassis to dissipate energy under crashes reduce the level of impact. There's probably regular drivers that end up with worse damage in the long term.
