Máté and me, rofl’ing at the Budapest office. Read more
I suddenly find the Vector spectacular. A badass American Countach! A Countach that Batman would drive. Maybe this is why they have modern Lamborghinis in the Nolan movies? Read more
So much for The Dirty Dozen reference! I wonder if Hamilton is learning German at Mercedes. I hope so. Read more
I think totally accidental. He was going there all his life. Read more
My favorite rear air intake after the Miura’s.
That was my favorite non-pass move from the 2011 season—and it’s good to see my favorite crayon drawing from that year, too! Vettel is a genius but I wouldn’t mind if someone beat him to the title this year, just to avoid Schumacherization. Read more
More like low light, if I remember correctly. Read more
I’m quite fond of it. It’s like, how weird can you get? V8 convertible pickup? Sure, let’s build it. Read more
I’m sorry to say but I’ve had a terrible, nine-year-old love affair with that thing. One of my first posts for Jalopnik! Read more
I got a letter last year from a guy named Manfred who was friends with Rudolf Uhlenhaut’s son Roger. Uhlenhaut had a thing for bringing his work home: Read more
Here’s one with Burundi plates. It serves the coffee washing station of Long Miles Coffee Project. Have you seen Burundi plates before? I haven’t.
The only Celeste I’d seen before we came across the one at Mitsubishi’s stand in Geneva was this dilapidated blue one in the Czech Republic but it’s somehow stuck with me. Lovely little car. It was early November in a town near the Tatra factory. Very cold. Huge plates of meat for dinner.
When he went through the Ascari chicane on full opposite lock in Monza during qualifying in 2011. Looked beautiful. Can’t find video. Read more
Let’s just say I’m around. Read more
Well, I hate the term booth professional. It’s a slimy, unpleasant, wink-wink version of booth babe. I used hostess to make it sound neutral. Industry model would have worked just as fine. Read more
I never even noticed that the horizontal and the vertical stripes were a different color. We’ve just surpassed the event horizon of sartorial awesome. Read more
Attendance on press days at a motor show is something like 95% men. If you combine that with the prevalence of heterosexuality, there’s probably very little incentive for male models. Although it would be neat if a carmaker did that—if only for a change. Read more
Yeah, I was ranting. I just get tired of Hamilton’s hubris sometimes. His good days are genuinely amazing but I just don’t think he’s the single greatest shining star of the current F1 grid. He should have won in 2007, that’s for certain, 2012 too. Read more
I’m not saying he isn’t one of the best. He is. He should totally have won the title in 2007, he could have won in 2010, and if not for McLaren’s many, many errors, he would easily have taken it last year. I don’t think 2008 was actually his strongest year. Read more
