Re-Watch the Greatest F1 Race of a Generation, the 2008 Brazilian Grand Prix
Re-Watch the Greatest F1 Race of a Generation, the 2008 Brazilian Grand Prix-August 2024
2024-02-19 EST 22:11:12

Just the other day of Brazil’s new fascist president . And for some reason, today Formula 1 decided to re-air the 2008 Brazil GP in which he suffered probably the most heartbreaking loss in recent racing history.

I remember watching this in a cafe in Williamsburg while the New York City marathon pounded away just a block or two away. I couldn’t turn away from the screen, nor could the guy running the place. We watch in disbelief as Massa won the race, celebrated winning the world championship title as well, until Lewis Hamilton crossed ahead into the position he needed to take the driver’s title, his first of now five. Massa’s family recoiled live on TV.

It was some of the wildest shit I’d seen, and I completely forgot, even that one of the Hondas burst into flames after the race itself.

Now you can watch it all yourself, which I encourage you all to do.

16-Year-Old Girl Wins Crazy Offroad Competition
Sydney Rockwell took the win at the Rush Off-Road Hill Climb in Kentucky this weekend. She is a mere 16 years old. As points out, some of the best drivers in rock bouncing (that’s what you call these all custom V8 machines) all got their asses handed to them by...

Did The F1 GTR's Tricky Headlamps Give McLaren The Victory At Le Mans?
Did The F1 GTR's Tricky Headlamps Give McLaren The Victory At Le Mans?
The thing about the 1995 McLaren F1 GTRs is that they were race cars which ended up being heavier and less powerful than the road cars they were based on. But that was still good enough for a 1-3-4-5 at Le Mans. McLaren people will tell you that than F1...

Sharing A Track With A Porsche 918 Makes For A Very Good Day
Ever had a day so nice that you get Ice Cube’s “” stuck in your head all day? That was my afternoon. The weather was perfect, my car was track-worthy again, and someone brought a 918 Spyder to the track. Not to a car show. Not to the Porsche corral...
