It’s Tuesday. Netflix has an excellent docuseries called Formula 1: Drive To Survive that offers an insider view of the people involved in one of the world’s greatest racing competitions. In this clip from the show they cover one of the most frightening accidents in F1’s history, Romain Grosjean’s fireball crash at the 2020 Bahrain Grand Prix. Absolutely stunning footage.

It’s Monday. It warmed up nicely into the low 80s over the weekend and it seemed like summer again. Felt good to break out the shorts and short sleeve shirts.

I had a couple buddies over on Sunday that I hadn’t seen since the beginning of the pandemic. We had plenty of munchies and beer and just enjoyed hanging out and laughing all afternoon. It was nice being able to do that again. I had the race on in the background but we were talking the whole time so I really only saw the end when Kyle Busch took the checkers. That also got me thinking about the upcoming Indianapolis 500 and what was selected as the official pace car this year? As you can see in the photo above, it’s the 2021 Chevrolet Camaro convertible. I look forward to seeing it lead the pack for the 105th running of the Indianapolis 500 on May 30th.
