Answer me one question. Given the luck and privilege of his life, how many of you, given the same good fortune, could not do what he does? Given the time and money, would you not indulge in fun pursuits? Hell, i'd love to learn how to fly a jet or helicopter. I'd love the fame to be invited to drive an F1 car.This is not envy talking, it is reality. Best of luck to him. But, please, don't tell me he is special. Of course his fans will say he is supremely talented..Hmm, ok.

Now what? Is that supposed to impress me? What a useless fact. So he went 180mph on a long straight. Provide lap times in comparison, that would be someting like 1:00min (Pro) vs. 2:00min (Tom Thetan Cruise). Also i don't think they're doing themselves a favor in promoting F1 if they create the impression anyone could drive a F1 car.

If I had his money, I'd buy one of these
