If you’re a motorsports fan—or even a casual car enthusiast—be honest: You’ve watched F1, NASCAR, or another racing series and had the thought, ‘I could do that; all they’re doing is driving a car!’
Well, as professional drivers, we’ve always dealt with this by rolling our eyes and attempting to explain that driving your street car isn’t even using 1% of its capability. I always found this to be an inadequate way to try to prove it’s not as simple as it looks and that professionals make it look far easier than it is.
