The Formula 1 season is back! Whereas the season of speculations, rumors, and has been running simultaneously since the end of the 2023 season. From a certain point of view, it was one of the most boring preseasons ever, because none of the 20 driver seats had its owner changed. This happened for the first time in the whole F1 history.
This chapter won't be that much about the whole F1 sport, but it will be more about one specific team, which I like the most.

Wednesday is one of the newer Netflix series based on the character Wednesday Addams by Charles Addams, who first appeared in The New Yorker in 1938.

Jednoho dne jsme já a čtyři moji kamarádi šli na únikovou hru. To místo se nám od první chvíle nelíbilo, ale stejně jsme do toho ne moc dobře udržovaného baráku vešli.
Byl studený zimní večer. V pět hodin už byla venku tma, lampy svítily lidem na cestu a osvětlovali ulice svým nažloutlým světlem. Z výšky se na zem pomalu snášel sníh, který celé město zakryl bílým povlakem.

Bylo teplé podzimní ráno. Listy se proháněly ve větru pod zářivým sluncem, zatímco Zuzka se svým tátou listovali v knížkách přede dveřmi své malé dřevěné chatky.
