@Muskwa2be @F1 100% agree. They should just swap Yuki and Liam and give Liam the same amount of time as Yuki has had to get to the consistency he’s gained.

[Brett Black @BrettBlackNZ]

@_taylorfilmss They didn’t want to risk him knocking Tsunoda out and used him to tow Tsunoda around instead. Unfortunately it didn’t pay off.

@ChrisShiflett71 So great! Will you have the harmonica guy with you next time? 😂

[Brett Black @BrettBlackNZ]

@ChrisShiflett71 Ticket booked! 🎸🔥

[Brett Black @BrettBlackNZ]

@DanielleSaysIt @wbuxtonofficial Yeah, it wasn’t particularly innovative. It was like ‘stadium-intro-lite’ was bought on sale for the event. It would have been more interesting to combine Will’s back-to-front grid walk, which was great, with the driver intros, so the drivers were with their car and team.

@nzsamueltaylor How did they get that furniture through the door?

LIFTOFF OF ARTEMIS I TO THE MOON

NASA’s Space Launch System rocket and the uncrewed Orion capsule lift off from Kennedy Space Center in Florida early this morning, with the capsule’s destination — the Moon — as a backdrop.

@harm538 @Jeremy14ynwa @JimLaheyTPBs @youpmelone @sdavid6306 @Formuladdict Verstappen didn’t make Turn 3 as a result of the speed he was carrying. He should have slowed prior to Turn 2 and there would have been no collision. It’s not just about who is where - speed counts - otherwise drivers could dive bomb every time and claim it was their corner.

[NASA @NASA]

We are going.

For the first time, the @NASA_SLS rocket and @NASA_Orion fly together. #Artemis I begins a new chapter in human lunar exploration.

[Brett Black @BrettBlackNZ]

@MeganHands8 RNZ led with this story on the report I caught.

[Brett Black @BrettBlackNZ]

@Sarversauce @F1 That’s not what the 2022 rules say. If there’s an overlap of the cars leading into the corner the drivers have to leave room - as per Ocon/Hamilton collision in Monaco.

[Brett Black @BrettBlackNZ]

You know it’s been too long since we’ve been to the Moon when the newsreader on the radio says the SLS launch will take place in “Cape Carnival.” 🤦🏻‍♂️🚀 #nasa

@K1w127 It doesn’t include KiwiSaver funds. They’re held in private trust accounts.

[Brett Black @BrettBlackNZ]

@Matthew83747579 @FrustratedKiwi1 @kiwiwayne2 They didn’t. They put the super fund on the books, rightly. KiwiSaver funds are held in private trust accounts and not on the government books.

[Brett Black @BrettBlackNZ]

@mintyhiggins @nzdgordon @secondzeit @David_Cormack You can only have 1 KiwiSaver scheme. Anything additional would be a super scheme or non-retirement investment. If two KiwiSaver schemes are listed it probably reflects being a member of both within a certain timeframe.

[Brett Black @BrettBlackNZ]

@FrustratedKiwi1 @sapp_erlot It actually means all staff receive the employer-contribution, not just those contributing to KiwiSaver. Employers just need to ensure the lowest wage they pay any staff member is minimum wage plus 3%.
