Congrats to the #7 Toyota on winning the 24 Hours of #LeMans. Toyota sacrificed the #8 car to get the win. The clearly caught the Safety Car correctly.

Dawn is breaking at #LeMans. This is why I prefer 24 Hours of Daytona in the winter. More night driving.

That’s an error. Might be a little bit of a hop, but that’s an error. I know there is a perfect game going on for Yamamoto, but that’s an E-6.

I’ll never forget partying with the Brazilians on I280 as they were going from Palo Alto to Campbell where they were all staying. It was a zoo. The 20 min drive took like 90 min with all the green and yellow cars.

The Brazilian fans partying before their match by taking over Times Square in between Pelé the Musical and a couple guys dressed as Mario & Elmo is just magical.
#FIFAWorldCup in the United States living up to the hype and we’ve barely started Day 3!

Berkeley math professor:
“Today, the more successful a public high school is at preparing its students, the lower its graduates' chances of getting into top UC campuses like Berkeley and San Diego.”
Berkeley admitted 45% of applicants from a high school where nearly 94% of “students failed to meet the state standards in mathematics.”
It admitted less than 14% of applicants from a school where “nearly 100 percent of its students in AP Calculus BC pass the national exam with a perfect score of 5.”

California universities dropped the SAT to help low-income and minority students. The policy is doing the opposite, writes Svetlana Jitomirskaya, a professor of mathematics at UC Berkeley. thefp.com/p/bring-back-the-s…

I, an 🇺🇸, understand this struggle. We learn it early. A redneck is more than a term used in pop culture references. Sunscreen is your friend. Deliberately not using it is madness in this part of the 🌎.
Btw this is what happens when a European (me) goes to Chicago thinking it‘s gonna rain I‘ll be fine without sunscreen
To all my fellow Europeans traveling to the US this summer: don‘t make the same mistake 😭🧴

It looks like Wallace bottomed out on a bump which likely resulted in the rear shocks reaching the limiters inside of them.
Once the limiters are hit, the suspension can no longer compress and the cornering loads are transferred through the tire, overwhelming the contact patch.
