3 Autographs from Emerson Fittipaldi and Lotus 72 Up Close At Assen Circuit
I met Emerson Fittipaldi at Assen Circuit (Cathedral Of Speed) where the Tabac Classic GP was held at 13-15 September 2024. He was there with the legendary Lotus 72 in the striking JPS livery! Emerson was very nice and gave me 3 autographs. I also spoke with Chris Dinnage, Race Team Manager at Classic Team Lotus. So awesome to speak with these people!

An absolutely packed Monza 2024 track for FP3 and qualifying in this 16th round of Formula 1. McLaren topped the charts once again with Norris and Piastri, but Albon and Hülkenberg where also on the top of their game. What will tomorrow bring? Oh and this shuttle busses, they were massively packed with smelly human body odour oozing peoples…aaaarrghhh! 😱

    Nice video on why Mini Champs is a pain in the but to unbox. Personally, I would cut out the plastic piece around the wheels as I never remove nay car from the base. The foam under the front wing is to protect it during shipping. My Spark had the same and was still broken on arrival. There are only two thin contact points that connect the wing to the nose. It took me three attempts to repair it. That being said, great model. Gives me goose bumps as well.
