If you don't believe in #IndyCar, listen to me, this is the essence of #IndyCar . No matter what's happening, no matter where you are, no matter all the team's predictive software, you've always got a chance, just keep your head down & battle, youtube.com/watch?v=4-q_qnโ€ฆ

I saw F-1 the Movie, and really enjoyed it. I found it good fun & well done. To me Brad Pitt played the role about like he played 'Once Upon a time in Hollywood' , cool guy, good-natured & doesn't sweat. If it makes more racing fans, terrific..! #F1Movie #F1 #sonnyhayes

The #BritishGP at Silverstone has a special meaning for me. My boyhood hero Peter Revson won there, and #Gilles made his #F1 debut there, both driving for #McLaren . We all passionately love this sport, but we don't dwell on it's cruelty, they and we, do what we love #Racing
