Had my last article rejected for being too long. Frustrated since I did a lot of analysis on it and it’s an important subject. Might split it into two pieces

I don’t write for them anymore either.

Was doing a few things to cut my teeth after uni. Returned during COVID to do an F1 retrospective series (to celebrate the 1000th GP).

This was as Apple News was hitting it big I guess with them. So I got the shits when my first piece of this series wasn’t featured on their Apple News page, but every single other article that day was - including those by new writers.

So I only ever got through 1 part of my “Greatest 100 races in F1 series” and gave up on The Roar.

I jump on time to time, but very rarely

No player names on the Japan jerseys - tradition means that usually is a rough night for them
