Irish. 30+4! I watch way too many sports. Kimi Räikkonen and Mika Häkkinen fan. #MentalHealthMatters
- 7:14 in the morning and my brain already feels overwhelmed today. Brilliant.
- Tim Cindric back at Penske as McLaughlin's strategist. Absolutely insane news.
- I always get the last laugh
- I knew this was coming. I should have pointed out the vast majority of team principals. I saw someone posting about Vowles. Plus Newey feels very much like a stopgap TP.
- Almost February 2026 and people still think team principals design or build F1 cars. I despair.
- His average qualifying position was 12th last year. He is an unbelievable racer still, but he won't win another championship unless he makes a step in qualifying. And it's hard to see at 45...
- When one of your biggest fans is a 10/10 human being but she is from Dublin. Completely understandable reaction, Oscar 😔
- That McLaren test livery is absolutely delightful. If only they kept it all season 🥲
- On another note, I cannot wait to sleep tonight. I am absolutely cooked. So, so tired. What a day 😅
- If anyone is interested in joining a F1 Bluesky fantasy league this year, let me know. I'll create one if there's enough interest when it's up and ready to go! I'll DM the details of it, ofc. Would be one team per person. No plans on disappearing from here either + will do updates after each round
- Leclerc and Verstappen the only drivers on track today and yet certain media outlets will still cry at no access to a private shakedown 😆😆😆😆😆😆😆
- @ Bluesky Please introduce voice notes at some stage soon, particularly for messages
- Sorry but a few media outlets turning up to try and get near the circuit or views of it when it's been clearly stated for ages it's a private shakedown or test is begging for attention. Testing should be like this more often actually. Would make the start of the season a lot more interesting IMO.
- Sainz and Albon thinking about the other 20 drivers hitting the track this week
- A racing driver saying to *me* that he hopes to do another interview after his current season is a generational confidence boost. My god the happiness that has given me is unbelievable. Just to have this feeling more often (a tiny bit of self confidence) would be amazing 😂
- January 24th and my sporting year might have peaked already 😹 Tá fáilte romhat, Aisling.
- Something triggered a memory of my dad tonight and boy has it hit hard in the feels. It's quite frankly barely believable he'll be gone 19 years in June. How quickly that period of time has passed is frightening. More than half my time on this earth without him feels wrong. Sigh.
- Fionn McLaughlin is having a nightmare in New Zealand. Jesus.
- Almost every year without fail it reminds me of this immediately... And then he wrote the following in an article on The Race last year 😐
- Alpine reveal livery Ferrari reveal livery Williams to mess Barcelona test Palou vs McLaren is finally over Fallows joining Racing Bulls It's not even 3pm Irish time 😂
- The pressure on James Vowles has just gone up significantly considering his statements and focus on 2026 for a long time now
- Szafnauer helping Palou to get payback against McLaren for nabbing Piastri. Motorsport is basically Coronation Street these days.
- Haas livery still the best for me but the Ferrari is quite nice. A lot of good and colourful liveries this year, thankfully.
- Ferrari fans today vs Ferrari fans in Melbourne
