Just back from a couple of days exhibiting at Kartmania, the UK kart show. Best part about it? Putting on my work uniform and it didn't stink of 2-stroke oil! Love working indoors.

When I was a kid, the MG Car Club used to hold its annual premier Autotest just here. I learned to drive outside where I'm stood now. Club Corner has changed a bit since then!

I'm not on track today (thankfully given the weather) but still at a track as I'm exhibiting at the kart show at Silverstone Circuit. It's lashing down outside, I'm feeling kinda smug I'm dry and warm.

Newmarket MP Matt Hancock gave a £37bn Covid testing contract to Jockey Club director Dido Harding, who subcontracted it to Grand National sponsor Randox, employer of Tory MP Owen Paterson, whose late wife chaired Aintree racecourse. That's how the Tories handled the pandemic.

This a big deal: "China’s carbon dioxide emissions have been flat or falling for 18 months"
China's economy has grown by ~5% in the last year, so this comprehensively debunks the idea (again) that emissions are tied to growth. So yes, faster progress needed, but this is how you turn the corner.

The great bit about racing in the winter is we're back at the Premier Inn by 5.15. The downside of racing in the winter is we're back at the Premier Inn by 5.15 😂 What am I going to do until the Sprint Race and GP Qualifying at 10.00?

Pritzker: Throughout history we've learned that tyranny doesn't arrive with dramatic proclamations. Most times it comes quietly wrapped in the language of law and order, with fingers pointed at someone who doesn't look like you, promising safety while demanding that we sacrifice our neighbors.
