    The amount of memories you're making right now is staggering! To think, you're only scratching the surface... :-)
    Can't wait to see what other iconic event you'll be able to run..
    P.S. I cheer for you whenever you're on track at F1 Academy. I know it's a learning year, but you're already making great progress. Driving single seaters is vastly different to any other type of motor vehicle.

      Same here. Sadly I broke a lower vertebrae at 19 & derailed any real competition in me. I still had fun a track days, but it was never the same. Lia has natural talent in abundance. Anyone who was more than an armchair racer can see that. As long as that smile stays, she's going to be a force to be reckoned with.

    Emerson Fittipaldi won his first F1 race at Watkins Glen in 1970. I remember going to the last F1 race there in 1980 with my Dad and meeting him in the paddock and he was such a humble and generous man. Cool (1) that we have meeting him in common. It is also cool (2) that years later I installed a Fittipaldi steering wheel on my Celica Supra. It served as a constant reminder of his generosity that day. very cool (3) that your Goodwood experience went so well. Keep inspiring us Lia.

      I was there one year when Ken was in the Hoonicorn. Looking down from the little straight betwwen Turns 1&2, he arrived into my view completely sideways exiting T1, like I was looking at the front view of the car moving horizontally, at maximum attack and full noise. It was truly awesome. I'll never forget it.
