Apparently Soviet-era racing games were just as appealing as their cars. Link goes to a great roundup by Wired, posted a few years ago.
Yeah, it's true: pretty much everyone in #F1 is now on Twitter. Actually, I should compile a list…
Since I already own a porn star bible, I should probably get one of these, too…

Odd…
Both McLarens have a little air intake on the nose where air can rush in at high speed and then using their knee, the drivers can open and close a hole which open and closes airflow around the cockpit and throught he fin-like engine cover and onto the rear wing.
All sounds a bit technical, but in short, this creates and advantage to the McLaren cars because the the drivers can effectively control the rear wing’s stability. By creating a change in air pressure flowing over the rear wing they can make it stiff and hence create less drag in a straight-line and give the cars a straight-line speed advantage over everyone else. The very fact that this is driver controlled and has been approved by the FIA is what’s making Bob Bell very unhappy.
…and I think it's legal — especially if the driver is just plugging a hole. Good 'un, McLaren.

In short: we enjoy cars but aren't afraid to laugh at 'em, drive them, crash them, and question their place in the world.
