Friday Feature – Spotlight: Lewis Hamilton – Formula One
In this weeks blog post, we will be doing a bit of a throwback since I haven’t written one of these in a while. We will be covering a Spotlight/Friday Feature on Lewis Hamilton – the famous Formula One driver for Mercedes. We all know him by Lewis Hamilton in the Formula One world, but since he was knighted in 2021, he was re-named Sir Lewis Carl Davidson Hamilton (okay, maybe the Sir part was the only new real edition) point is, he’s a big deal no matter what you know him as.

Movie Review: Schumacher (2021 Film)
Welcome to our 3rd edition of the Movie Review. In this week’s blog post we will be reviewing the movie called Schumacher – based on the world’s greatest driver of all time, Michael Schumacher.

It was released in 2021 in Germany and was directed (and co-directed) by an all German crew. Movie Summary Michael’s story was like many others in the limelight – cameras in his face, name in the news headlines, millions of followers worldwide but it was his strong will and determination that put him in the center…

This week, Ford vs Ferrari will be under review, and as a person who actually watched this movie I have to say, personally I thought it was really good.

And with big names like Christian Bale and Matt Damon in the leading roles, you know this will be a movie to remember. Movie Summary This movie, although fictitious at some points, took the real story of Enzo…

In Loving Memory – Paul Walker
Since November 30th of this year has been 10 years since Paul Walker passed away, I found it fitting to create a blog post in dedication of him. I can’t believe how fast time flies. There was so much that has happened since then, but it still feels like I heard the news of his death for the first time yesterday. Paul Walker had a very particular reputation in the public eye, and it was a good thing. The day that he passed away, Paul and his long time friend Roger Rodas, spent the day at a toy drive event for his disaster relief charity, Reach Out Worldwide, founded in…

Movie Review: Gran Turismo
In this week’s blog post, I decided to change things up a little, and do a movie review. I will be reviewing the movie ‘Gran Turismo’ which believe it or not, is based on a true story. This movie is a prime example of a young kid with a burning desire to follow his dreams, and he shows that dreams really can come true, if you work hard enough to achieve them. Movie Summary This true story follows a team made from some unlikely people – a working-class gamer, a former race-car driver, and an idealistic motorsport executive – who come together and risk it all to take part in…
