Thanks to my best friend and courtesy of a manufacturer name plate, I was given a super exclusive experience at my first Formula One GP race in Montreal, Canada. This was a treat because I love everything about motor racing beyond just the cars. I love the business behind it. The competitive nature. The most valuable sport in the world. They strive to be the best. It is the ultimate world to be in.
It was 5:45 AM and we woke up ultra early for an exclusive behind the scenes of the major brand’s team. If you still haven’t figured out who was so kind to us – I’ll give you a hint: they’re Italian but the smaller red team.
Most of my days are spent working and forgetting to take time away for myself. Like I mean selfishly not think about work and personal responsibilities. But when you’re presented with an experience not many get to have over a sport you’re personally passionate about – you make the effort to shut down everything else and just be in the moment.
I had a great time with my best friend and his son. Fast cars aside, I ran into some great acquaintances and I learned more about my best friend and his son. Definitely a good break and much needed break.
I can say with all confidence I am hooked on Formula One Grand Prix racing. My first and surely will not be my last experience.
Quit while you’re ahead
