Whenever I see Oliver Turvey’s name in the news, I’m always reminded of a friends anecdote of when he saw Oliver Turvey, on the way to Autosport International, holding a life size cardboard cutout of Oliver Turvey.

Denim livery? Might be too hot 😮‍💨

Finally a comeback that rivals his hairline.

He still can't quite believe it! 🤩

You literally invited him there and provided the cardboard cutout

Ian Holloway with a cardboard cutout of Gareth Southgate on Sky Sports News was not on our bingo card today 😅

[Craig Norman @CraigNormanF1]

Loads of late-nineties CART vibes from this.

Nice Flo-Viz action this morning. More tech pics in our updated AMuS gallery from Bahrain.

A premonition? We’ve got eight (mostly) black cars already…

[Craig Norman @CraigNormanF1]

Had a dream last night that F1 in 2024 was just eight jet black cars racing in North Korea 20 times a season.

At least they won’t make him drive for Haas for several seasons, become fluent in Italian and then deny all knowledge of a deal like they did with Romain Grosjean.

[Craig Norman @CraigNormanF1]

Imagine if they bin him off by text like they did with Hulkenberg

'2024 silly season probably won't even be that good'

2024 silly season:

[Craig Norman @CraigNormanF1]

Ferrari fans spraying champagne over each other that Charles has re-signed, but 5 wins from 23 pole positions (22% conversion rate) is a stat worth several resignations in itself.

[Formula 1 @F1]

The journey continues for @Charles_Leclerc and @ScuderiaFerrari ✨

What will the future hold for the young Monegasque talent? 🔮

[Craig Norman @CraigNormanF1]

I was lucky enough to be in the paddock and was at the pressers for both drivers after the first runs. IIRC, Nico was in high spirits and felt like it was the best car he’d driven up to that point, Lewis was slightly downbeat as he felt it was the worst.

Mercedes' team launch in 2013.

When this picture was taken the modern iteration of the team had only 1 win to their name (China 2012); it became clear soon after though that Wolff, Brawn, Rosberg, & Hamilton were going to bring the team to new heights. 🇩🇪🇬🇧

@glennfreeman39 @wearetherace The Chandler Ostrich Festival down the road drew more spectators, which was a major factor in its cancellation.

@OfficialFPL Yeeeah, let’s keep this between us

Look who I bumped into today 👀

‘Well done, he’s 13’
It’s Jamie from the Michael Owen Soccer Skills video

@17DJB @maxrushden @marklangdon @PhilippeAuclair @JohnBrewin_ @marc_cart BBC’s radio coverage was excellent yesterday - listen out for “Idrissa Gueye, up to Papa Gueye, and the ball is now out of play” transferring to TV on Sunday.

#F1 isn’t ready for a 2023 race at COTA without Daniel RicciardOH SAY CAN YOU SEE BY THE DAWNS EARLY LIGHT

#USGP

[Craig Norman @CraigNormanF1]

@TommyWTF1 Mate. That’s me every week since 2019. We’ve lost 11 in a row at home now which is the bleakest I’ve ever seen it.

[Craig Norman @CraigNormanF1]

@maxrushden @guardian_sport @marklangdon @larssivertsen @JFfutbol The Roy Keane Celebratory for finishing fourth bottom?

The Derby County Decoration for least number of wins?

The Rocket Ronnie Rosenthal Rosette for worst miss?

The possibilities are endless.

[Craig Norman @CraigNormanF1]

@maxrushden @guardian_sport @marklangdon @larssivertsen @JFfutbol With the talk about Everton fans walking out due to lack of trophies, isn’t more trophies the answer? The pod already developed the Everton Trophy, why not more?

[Will Brazier @willbrazier]

Martin Brundle, former F1 driver, calling Max Verstappen out for his driving standards but Pete from Lincoln who went Go Karting once for a stag do, says it’s all Lewis Hamilton fault in his professional opinion.
