I wish I could drive for more than 100km, but that’s the limit, and I leave here with a smile on my face.Related ArticlesaccImages.createImage(); F1 Azerbaijan GP to take place behind closed doors in JuneaccImages.createImage(); F1 Azerbaijan GP to take place behind closed doors in June“All in all, it was a very interesting day and I can’t wait to discover more about the car.
