The Sochi circuit can be challenging, featuring a combination of high speed straights and lots of corners, especially in the last sector.
You save most fuel by lifting and coasting in the heavy braking zones at the end of long straights into slow corners.
I always keep a good manicure because these are acrylics. They're the safest because your real nails are actually sharper than acrylics.
I find that acrylics dry very fast - which is supposed to be its charm; however, I find that because of that quality they don't blend as nicely as the oils. The oils, for one thing, are softer and more flexible than the acrylics. Also, the colors are brighter with oils.

It's two seasons since I raced in Sepang and I'm looking forward to it now.

You can't smear acrylics, you know, it dries too fast.
We all lose sometimes. We fail to get what we want. Friends and loved ones leave. We make a decision we regret. We try our hardest and come up short. It's not the losing that defines us. It's how we lose. It's what we do afterward.
Most people wouldn't guess, but I'm really into painting: acrylics and sometimes oils.

I know how difficult it is to make a career in the arts, but even if you don't make a career of it, don't lose it as a hobby. Artists often end up in jobs that have nothing to do with their art. But that side needs to be fulfilled - don't give it up.
