THE BELGIAN GRAND PRIX, 2017

For Checo...
This week's race is infuriating:
a clashing of team-mates, high speed,
deadly. I hide my face in fear.

He could die, be maimed, by another's ego trip.
Wreckage on the track. Safety Car. I search for his face.
Phew! Luckily, he's still here only now at the very back.

Now he's being blamed - so unfair - by those
lacking experience with tongues like scythes
hell bent on felling true greatness.

    He is young. He will prove himself yet. In the meantime, he is making some good money.
    My dear friend, you are such a fabulous writer that you make Check's story sound like poetry!

    Big Hugs 💕

      *smiles*...felt SO emotional after watching this that I just HAD to give my feelings expression!
      It was all the blame being heaped upon him that did it...and I am such a big fan!

      Thank you, my dear Friend...and yes, hopefully others will eventually appreciate his talent.

      Much Love & Hugs xoxoxoxo

      Oh I hope so, Sweetie!
      I hear they have been ordered by the team principal to make up - or face a racing ban!!
      I am still nervous about Sunday's race though...:/

      Many thanks!:))

    Olá, em tudo o menos competentes sentem a necessidade de arranjar culpados, assim, pensam que ganham protagonismo, mais tarde, a competência de quem acusado acaba por se impor.
    Continuação de boa semana,
    AG

      I totally agree, Antonio...realistically, there could be no other outcome really, could there?!

      Many thanks. :))
