Go to Spain, they said. The weather is lovely, they said.
I like the Shipping Forecast

Time to crack out the hammer, lads. Cadillac have clearly been to the moderatefairgood school of fixing things. What an absolute shambles. #F1 #BrazilianGP
💛💚 Those of us lucky enough to have witnessed the heroics of this man at this particular circuit know how special this really is. #F1 #BrazilianGP
Real pea-souper out there today. Can’t even see the valley, let alone the mountains.
BBC 2 has a programme on about popular telly themes. I turned it on at the right time. One of the greatest songs of *all time.* Certainly the greatest theme. That weirdest music video I’ve ever seen, though. Something about… custard? #F1
That Cadillac livery is just bloody hideous. Completely nondescript. #F1
The lazy sun made a belated appearance through the pea-souper. Just in time to go back to bed again. Lazy so-and-so.
Was disappointed with my LegionGo Z1E until I changed the controllers to the ones from the Go 2. It’s absolutely transformed it. And yes, I’m using it to play old games. And no, if you chose anything other than Magical Sound Shower on Outrun, we can’t be friends. #retrogaming
Just an aside, but I truly believe that the Vanquish has potentially *the greatest* model name of all time. Open to other nominations, but you’d better bring some seriously heavyweight contenders. #weirdcarbs
Carlton Boyce@motoringjourno.bsky.social · 6d agoI'm biased, but I think our photographer has a wonderful eye for a background. #THEMARKET #AstonMartin #Vanquish
Saw this at Pall Mall in London today. 10/10, no notes.
Ladies and gentlemen As you know, we have something special down here at Birdland this evening A recording for Blue Note Records 🎵🎶
There is a lot of nonsense that we seem to be importing from the US: Weird speech intonation. Polarised, vicious attacks on the candidate and not the policy. Stupidly big SUVs. Calling the UK the “homeland.” But you know what I could get on board with? Those cute “I voted” stickers. MOAR STICKERS
Trefor 🗡@nocturnalbelmont.bsky.social · last wk.Dunno what everyone else's ballots look like but this one was important for my state. For many reasons, but mainly because we approved the constitutional right to make reproductive decisions in 2024 by a 3% margin (95k votes). This year they're trying to repeal that. Go vote, do your part! 💚
All the buttons. One of the all time great interiors, imo. The infotainment future we could’ve had. #weirdcabs
Bring a Trailer@bringatrailer.bsky.social · last wk.How many buttons would you like on your dashboard? https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1989-aston-martin-lagonda-7/
Fuck sake. This is shit news. @upallnight.racing got a shit deal, but still played his cards with a lot more humour and grace than I’d ever have managed. Go well, mate. #weirdcarbs
Juanma is Creating Lightly 🎨🖌😬@creatinglightly.art · last wk.Since today, #weirdcarbs is not the same. As many knew, our friend Ash @upallnight.racing has been fighting cancer since the end of last year. In the early hours of this morning, he passed. Share a Jag or two in his name. He'd be delighted! 💚
Bravo Kimi. He did it without shoving anyone off. Without running into people. Without controversy. What a young driver. What a character. #F1 #MexicanGP
Formula 1@f1tv.bsky.social · last wk.KIMI ANTONELLI IS THE 2026 F1 WORLD CHAMPION!!! 🏆 The youngest to ever do it at 20 years and 68 days old! #F1 #MexicoGP
Sorry Arvid, that’s on you. Once again, this incident proves that #F1 racing guidelines are bullshit. Where does Arvid expect Oscar to go? If the stewards had any spine, they’d clamp down on this nonsense. Running people off the road is not racing. #MexicanGP
Spicy Lewis. Also, at what point does the FIA start to seriously look at the likes of Cadillac and Aston? These repeated car failures are not a good look for the sport. #F1 #MexicanGP
Valtteri doing his best Buemi impression. #F1 #MexicanGP

Made friends with a young guy in the bar. He saw my Seahawks tee, and excitedly took his jacket off to show me his Seahawks jersey. He told me he’s only been watching the NFL for four weeks, but loves it already. *That* is the power of sport. To make instant friends over such stuff. 💙💚
Lance Stroll can’t even park properly. What a fucking imbecile. How has this guy still got his Super License? #F1 #MexicanGP
Back in hotels for the week and really not feeling so good mentally, so counting watching the Grand Prix on my phone in the bar, with a pizza and a beer, as a small win.
