I blog therefore I am

Interviewer: After how his car behaved in the race, Mike says...

Mike: Ummm, well not very well actually. It started off quite well and in the second lap it started pouring oil out left hand side of the engine onto the exhaust pipe. I saw these puffs of white smoke going and I thought it won't last long now. We went on quite happily, slowed down in revs, slowed down a bit. Umm, I knew it had sort of run out of oil sooner than later so I was watching the oil pressure gage and that dropped down from around about six or seven and went down to two and a half so I thought time to go in so I came in for a quick stop, signalled I was coming in. They filled it up and off I went again and it was well. It went up to three instead of two haha!

Interviewer: You gained the maximum speed didn't you in one of the laps today.

Mike: Yes! I did, I was very suprised by that. I didn't think I'd do that.

Interviewer: That was before you noticed the oil trouble?

Mike: No, No, this happened right at the beginning, second lap of the race, but um, when I refilled with oil, they gave me a signal saying, Salvadori was ten seconds behind so I thought I'd better get my finger out and press on a bit. And uh, I think I must have done it then. I didn't mean to! I didn't think I had a home giving advantage.

Interviewer: Well congratulations Mike, and uh what is the next race?

Mike: German Grand Prix at the Nürburgring. A fortnight tomorrow.

Interviewer: Well the best of luck *something I can't make out*
