I've accepted that Wickens has been paralyzed to some degree now. The general results of thoraic fractures are paralysis and we're yet to see any kind of social media response from him.
Hope he's doing ok mentally.

Granted they want to let the swelling die down before they post any information, but regardless, the silence is deafening right now.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure he's toast as well . Very happy to be proven wrong (make it happen!).

Oh dear me. That looks like a bad 1990's cycling kit.

I honestly can't see them running two cars yet. Unless they want to fail big time.

I dunno, gys. I kinda like the new Seb Bourdais livery. The white & purple combination fondly reminds me of the Nickey Chev Group 7 and CanAm cars of the mid-1960's for the likes of Charlie Hayes, et al.

You'd expect the Ferucci family to have some 'selective' words about Bourdais' sponsor for this weekend.
