I think you are forgetting the early races where Kimi and Russell were racing hammers and tongs against each other. That was fun to watch and showed just how much Kimi wanted it. Russell faded later in the season but Kimi kept the fire.

I spent some time in Brazil. I’ve seen rain like that. I recall one day seeing someone’s motorcycle getting washed down the gutter on the side of the road. 😆

I love watching wet weather racing and qualifying. Yesterday’s session was very exciting, and I hope there’s at least a little rain for the race today.

Fun to watch. But I was hoping the late rain would’ve made it a bit more interesting. Great to see hadjar on the podium!
