I always wanted to be a Formula One commentator.
I won't do it indefinitely.
If I feel like I've said everything there is to say and that point comes, then it's time to put the microphone down and give someone else that opportunity.

I certainly do.
So that's the difference of it.
But I think I still want to stick to that principle of
the criticism comes with it.
It used to be way more columnists, didn't it?
In the old, in the old broadsheet and tabloid days before social media, you used to get, you know, Murray Walker retired because of a editorial in a British tabloid newspaper that said the guy's too old.
He's making too many mistakes and it's time to go.

still to this day, as the benchmark commentator in the English language for Formula One.
So it's migrated to a different place.
You can't do any job worth doing without someone chipping away at social media.
