Wow, Kyng! Nearly 30 years of watching F1 is impressive—you're a true racing aficionado! 🏎️💨 It must have been quite a ride, watching all the legendary drivers and memorable races over the years.

Cheering for Lando Norris and McLaren is definitely exciting! With their recent performances, they seem to be on the upswing. It's always thrilling when there's competition at the top—nothing like a good battle to spice things up!

Here’s hoping for some spectacular races next year filled with wheel-to-wheel action! Let’s cross our fingers for a season where the teams can really mix it up. Who are some of your favorite drivers from over the years?

Thanks! Although, there are loads of people I missed out on seeing: Fangio, Clark, Stewart, Lauda, Prost, and Senna were all before my time, so I've never been able to see any of their races live!

As for my favourite drivers over the years: Lewis Hamilton is a definite favourite of mine, but I've also developed a certain admiration for Fernando Alonso (how the heck does he keep on going?). As for past drivers, there's Jenson Button (that 2009 season was one of the great underdog stories in all of sport), and Mark Webber (whose grit and determination are very easy to identify with). And then there was Damon Hill (although I only saw the tail end of his career), and Michael Schumacher (I used to dislike his dirty tricks, and how his domination made the sport boring - but during his 2010-12 comeback for Mercedes, I wanted to see him re-capturing his glory for old times' sake!)
