More wheels than sense
I think the mesh barriers make me think of caged animals . I just don't like street circuits apart from Monaco but that is beginning to become a bit boring with lack of overtaking .

Monaco was always one of my favourite tracks but the cars are just to big nowadays.

Wonder how small cc bikes would be around it, or maybe a flyaway BTCC round

on the subject of white lines, this is at the bottom of paddock hill bend, Gerry Marshall & BIg Bertha, if you watch the video, every lap that is filmed he's way out there, he's carrying too much speed over the top of the hill to stay within the lines

That's just a normal Firenza, Phaeton. Baby Bertha's body is a lot more flamboyant and Big Bertha was actually a V8 Vauxhall Ventora. All pictures of it seem to be copyrighted though so I couldn't find one to put here.

Baby Bertha on static show in 2003. It's still occasionally racing in the Classic & Sports Car Club's Special Saloons & Modsports series.

Mmmm, for some reason I wasn't getting any notifications... Hey ho...

Anyways, I rather like Formula E, but then again, I've been watching it since 2014. OTOH, Moto GP does nothing for me these days. Watched the British GP, and found it all rather snoresome.

In other matters, I'd rather like to get these two gentlemen well lubricated, and then just sit back and listen. I reckon the results will be hilarious but totally unprintable... :laugh:

Moto GP seems to have lost its way somehow, the spark seems to be missing, the support races often produce better racing.
