my feed is half mourning for Dolly Parton, half reposts of one of the Bsky devs saying something truly daft about AI (day ending in Y behaviour tbh). I’m gonna embrace the joy of logging off

Man, all that really matters on this earth is that more people are sad than happy when you go

If you still don’t think Lando Norris is a champion-level driver, just…go away. Go away from this sport. You’re bad at understanding it.

All things considered, the race turned out more entertaining than it looked yesterday. A big crash at the start, weather uncertainty, teammates colliding, great scraps in the midfield, Ferrari's bizarre team radio, and jeopardy at the front. A fun last lap for Zandvoort. #F1 #DutchGP

I’m lost for words at the “strategy insights” popping up occasionally on the broadcast. They’re so meaningless it baffles me

ANT gaining on RUS but not on NOR, crucial in the final stretch #F1 #DutchGP

Early stages since restarting but Norris for now looks plenty quick enough to stop Antonelli closing that gap in time #F1 #DutchGP

Norris around the outside of Antonelli at Turn 1! Brilliantly done as Antonelli had a bit of a look at Hamilton Norris gets Hamilton before Turn 11 after Hamilton ran wide #F1 #DutchGP

Lando and Oscar would be good cat names 🤔 I need a place for me and my future cats to live before I name them but just noting the idea.

I liked the pressure of the rain on that quali session. I’ve been super tuned out on F1 lately (life reasons mainly), nearly skipped quali so it was a pleasant surprise. Also happy with the outcome generally
