    I quite admire it (and them). I can't tell whether the whole thing is spontaneous or pre-prepared, but she does a good job maintaining her flow quite naturally. She obviously gets some income from her videos, good luck to her.

    Exactly. It's basically character comedy, not trolling or whatever. The amount it's been viewed and shared someone must be getting some entertainment from it.

    I once did a product launch event at the Williams factory - I didn't have too many customers attending, and so could wander around a bit. I ducked under some velvet rope, and went downstairs to find a showroom full of most of the race cars they've made - including the FW08 above. They even had Sennas car - I expect it was his 'spare' from the year he died. I spent about two hours on Skype video with my dad that afternoon - they say you never forget your wedding day, or the day your first child is born - well I'll also never forget that day.

    I think Tyrell went double front to improve handling, but Williams & March went double rear for aerodynamics - look at how big a regular F1 rear tyre was back then.

    The Tyrrel was Aero focused and the Williams was everything. The P34 had small front wheels to reduce the disruption to aero from the front tyres.

    The FWO8B was four wheel drive to improve grip out of corners, let Williams run slick(er) tyres in the rain and use smaller front spec tyres on the back to lengthen the skirts/venturi tunnels on the car for more downforce. It was rumoured that the real reason it was banned was that the FWO8B had another 50% downforce on top of the FWO8 and that Jonathan Palmer had complained of blacking out in corners during testing. Williams never published it's lap times, but the words 'fast' and 'very' come up a lot.

    I like Remi Gaillard but that video felt so staged.
