Motorsport fan. Occasional dry wit. All views are my own and consequently rubbish.

@specutainment sorry snuck in at the back.. listening whilst on my way to New York for a Sasha and Digweed gig on Friday, for all things musical

[Michael D @secondlisten]

@specutainment what a great show tonight. Thank you for the past 1000 episodes-what an amazing achievement! And replaying the Caterham Dale of the Century clip, after what must be 10 years now, has me rolling around again!

@TouringCarHub @specutainment 🙁

@RSL_Studio sad I’m not at the circuit this year, but loving the race and the RSL coverage. This SC has lifted my heavy eyes too.. night shift here we come! #21RSL24

@GWRHelp Thanks Julia. I’m now on the 1800 Temple Meads to London. Train full and standing in Standard class due to many people diverted, but First almost empty. Can this be declassified pls, or Train Manager relayed this message? (I’ve not seen them..)

[Michael D @secondlisten]

@GWRHelp I was planning on taking the (then cnclld) 1727 Bristol Parkway to London, but was sent to Temple Meads by the gateline staff at Parkway. The 1727 has now been reinstated.. but I’m at Meads and will be 30mins late into Ldn. Please confirm I’m eligible for compensation?

@jg910 @specutainment What a car!

[Michael D @secondlisten]

Sorry this is exactly what AI wasn’t invented for 😂

[Michael D @secondlisten]

@specutainment best orange racing car with Ace of Base hanging out of the windows you say?

[Michael D @secondlisten]

@specutainment best orange racing car you say?

@specutainment also I wouldn’t be surprised if Stroll is tempted to sell-up to BYD and make a ton of return for Aston Martin..

[Michael D @secondlisten]

@specutainment other than marketing, bit confused why BYD would want into F1… straight into a potential new V8 era, when they’re known for battery cars?

[Michael D @secondlisten]

@specutainment didn’t realise you had a previous career behind the club decks! Was that down in Brighton? Enjoying the Dubai 24h so far, a warm up for next weekend.

@adambuckle @specutainment I’m not sure LMDH isn’t competitive - Porsche ran close to Ferrari at Le Mans and did win the ‘24 Championship against them. But convergence onto a single rule set would be ideal, if the egos can allow it.

[Michael D @secondlisten]

@specutainment hate to shout a good idea down, but the Porsche money is sunk and Audi won’t get Board permission to splinter the F1 effort for at least 3 years IMO. And that’s if they’re winning. WEC would just be a distraction.

[Michael D @secondlisten]

@specutainment wasn’t Galvanised Crossmember the forth Austin Powers film?

[Michael D @secondlisten]

@specutainment good evening collective!

[Michael D @secondlisten]

@specutainment I thought if a manufacturer wanted their GT3 car in WEC then they also had to put a Hypercar in? I see Porsche is keeping a GT3 in WEC somehow?!

[Michael D @secondlisten]

@specutainment Eduardo should funnel his Bruce Forsyth ‘come on down!’ when calling these drivers forward
