Cor @Mi-Amigo

I know a few of these and definitely have seen the movies on TV. The titles though is a different issue 🙄

May be a good one 👍

2020 @Mi-Amigo at Bahrain. Driving for the Haas team. If you watch the gif, the most magnificent sight of Romain Grosjean climbing from that wreckage and fireball, with only minor burns to his hands. Miraculous really. ❤️
