No word of a lie, but my Sud Sprint was SO rusty that you could shut the doors and roll up the windows and the next morning my mum’s cat would still have found a way in and would be sleeping on the driver’s seat.

I have owned an Alfa. A Sud Sprint. Adored it even though it never technically worked. Never owned a V8 but have had a straight-six, so 2/3rds the way there.

Yup. and as Hazel says, massive kudos to Norris and Piastri for not rising to the toxic headline bait. There’s nothing wrong with a bit of sportsmanship.
