Desperately sad to see this. RIP
Quentin Willson - my friend and my hero. An incredibly generous man who, on a personal level, helped me and my family enormously. And the most talented broadcaster, journalist and campaigner. I’ll miss him hugely. So sorry for his family. ❤️

It's been a busy few days...
Out in Germany today with media as they get up close to the new fastest production car in the world, the YANGWANG U9 Xtreme. At the ATP Automotive Testing Papenburg track in Germany, it hit 308.4 mph. #YANGWANG

You don't need to be a VC to own a fleet. You just need vision. Web3. Robotaxis. Real revenue.

Opening episode of @netflix series Wednesday, supposedly filmed mostly in Romania. Motoring hackdom, is this where I think it is?

I was an unsuccessful finalist in this contest about 30 years ago. Learned lessons in the final interview that I applied every day as a hack.

I am so sad to read this. Jon E was such a fabulous bloke who helped so many people who wanted access to NASCAR, its races and its drivers. He was also a massive football fan who loved coming to the UK to catch up on matches. Gone far too soon. RIP.

Still one of the most fun days I had as a journalist involved EJ, @NobleF1 and a model of a Jordan F1 car with Ford logos. Do you remember that one, Jonny?
Very sad to hear that former #F1 team boss Eddie Jordan has passed away. Grand Prix racing has lost one of its true legends. https://t.co/NTuI9iUIXL

Ooh! New profile pic. Haven't had one of those for a while. Anyway, thought it was about time, since today marked my final press-day Friday at @AutoExpress. It's been a blast - thanks to the whole team there, who are simply terrific. I start a new gig in early Sept...

@AutoExpress @lawrencetheband I mean, that's the power of @AutoExpress - just a mention that @lawrencetheband is going to feature in a first drive and a few hours later they're playing the @FallonTonight in front of millions...

Hey @thetrainline, if you can't take payment and sell me a ticket, why do you exist?

Watching #WRC power stage and listening in despair as even the official commentary team try to work out who's scored what. Surely the basic rule of any sport is to have results that people can understand? This is a fail. Hopeless.

This is why we shouldn’t be allowed nice things.

One small positive among the disgusting scenes in Southport is this far right fuckwit getting his nadgers crushed by a flying brick.

I suppose the good people of Wales might consider themselves lucky to have only wasted this much on the TVR factory that wasn't, instead of hundreds of millions on the Circuit of Wales...
