@hello084408 @Nachez98 I do. It was a good weekend overall. Did decent in the sprint and sprint qualifying, did very good in qualifying. Spun in the race (which was his fault, but shouldn't put him that low), and drove an incredible recovery considering his tires were 51 laps old by the end.

The man — the myth — the Broyles. This was an absolute career highlight and an amazing privilege; a few weeks ago, I had the opportunity to interview Chris via Zoom. He emailed me after and offered a one-on-one tutorial of his research and novel forecasting techniques. The offer was beyond humbling. Today, I got to sit down with him for two hours and learn about his team’s groundbreaking research surrounding jet streak translation speeds and a variety of other factors. To say I learned a LOT would be an understatement. An equally-skilled teacher as forecaster. Many of you know Broyles from some famed tornado outlooks — like in 2012, when he presciently issued a day-two high risk despite models showing no rainfall. The next day, swarms of strong to violent tornadoes materialized exactly where he had anticipated. He proved correct, and the top-notch analysis and gut instinct earned him a congressional silver medal. It was amazing to see how much technical in-the-weeds meteorology goes into each of his upper-echelons forecasts, as well as the impressive and promising verification statistics of some of the agency’s more recently-created tools. Chris’s OMEGA research rose to prominence following a “surprise” high risk outlook on April 2, 2025. A lot of meteorologists, including myself, were caught off guard — we didn’t see it coming, and convective-allowing (thunderstorm-simulating) models were tepid. By 4 p.m., a string of violent tornado supercells were traversing the high risk area through northeastern Arkansas exactly where Chris had drawn it. The brazen forecast, based on years of research, verified — and ultimately saved lives. Chris was exceptionally kind in answering all my questions thoughtfully and comprehensively. I didn’t realize until after that this was all on his own time — his shift hadn’t even started yet. For someone at his level to give an early-career professional two hours just for the sake of teaching speaks volumes about his character. @NWSSPC has some phenomenal minds — and people.

@vmechave @thomasmaheronf1 Did you not watch the onboard? It clearly showed there was a mechanical failure, not driver error.

Liam Lawson has explained that he suffered a sudden gearbox failure into T17, without any warning, resulting in the collision with Gasly. The two drivers have spoken, Lawson apologized for the incident, with Gasly now knowing it wasn't Liam's mistake. #F1 #MiamiGP
