F1 - Bad Poetry in Motion (Balls of Steel)
As I said before, if you're in a writer's block, then write some bad poetry. Coincidentally, the new F1 🏎️ season just started. Tomorrow's race two, and with some (bad) luck Mercedes will be just as boringly reliable as always...

Yeah. It's a lonely profession... no time for hanging out in bars meeting fans 😉
