Who is your favourite driver and team? I used to follow F1 quite a a lot back in the Nigel Mansell days.  Less so now.

Lewis Hamilton and Mercedes. (Which is a bit of a bummer this season) 😂

Been watching F1 since it started, so Ayrton Senna is my all time favourite driver.

According to my kids my history is ancient, as old as the dinosaurs

@J9el fingers crossed for those NBA questions 😁🤞

I'm not that into podcasts, although I've recently started to listen to a few of them as my partner loves them. But 'Death on the Wing' really grasped my attention. Love when sports are investigated seriously and there's a politics take on it. With that Chuck D feat. I don't need to be further convinced, thanks for the tip, I will definitely check it out.

@Cleoriff did I ever mention that my dad is a motorsport photographer? He has covered F1 for many many years and since he's Brazilian, he was able to take pictures of Senna since the beginning of his career as a kart driver. Senna is a national hero in Brazil.
