I mentioned this earlier today, but Formula 1 isn’t in action this weekend because they’re scared to drive at Talladega. They sent one Frenchman to try it and said, “Trop dangereux!”
Cowards.
I think they should reconsider. I think they should hold a Grand Prix of Alabama. For one thing, think of the crowds. For another, think of the air those bad boys would get. You want to put a car in orbit, Elon? Pay for F1 to hold a race at ‘Dega. Those things would fly.
The best part is, you wouldn’t have to armor up the cars to make it safe. Those automobiles would be popping up high enough you could just put an eject button on the steering wheel and equip each dude with a parachute. Max Verstappen’s mad at Lewis Hamilton? See you in Montgomery when the Jetstream drops you off.
Get on it, Macron.
