  2. Max Verstappen has received a penalty from the FIA. Lewis Hamilton and Verstappen had to report to the stewards following the incident at the Italian GP and it has been decided that the Dutchman is to blame. The news has just come in that the Dutchman will receive a penalty of three places for the incident with Hamilton. Due to a slow pit stop of Red Bull Verstappen ended up further back in the field, causing Hamilton to come in right next to him after the Mercedes pit stop. slap on the wrist FIA grow some cojones šŸ™„
  3. What I find most disturbing is that verstappen didn’t even check if Hamilton still had his head on but for the halo , there could have been a catastrophe 😔🤬

  6. I look at it this way none of the people I knew took their own lives, took drugs, had cosmetic surgery, ran up massive debts ok we took risks motorbikes crazy stunts , knock a door run, egg bombing , coins on the railway line,being slapped by the village Bobby gatecrashing nightclubs underage but we had no social pressure we didn’t feel the need to be better than our friends we knew the wrong un’s and we stayed away from them Rose tinted maybe but I have friends that I’ve known for 45 years, and we’re all still in a good place and more importantly our kids are too weve climbed the mountains and come back safely & I think that’s because we had a good stable grounding from our parents and that’s all you can do be a good parent

  14. There’s a plaque on Sydney Harbour in the floor on writers walk commemorating an Australian writer about 1800 it states ā€œI know I am the wanderer ā€œ full verse ā€ 1932 ...I know I am the wanderer of the ways of all the worlds, to whom the sunshine and the rain are one and one to stay or hasten, because he knows no ending of the way, no home, no goal...
