R U Experienced?

Yinan driving an F1 car without helmet!

Obviously, I’m a Formula One fan, a big one. Before wanting to be a designer, I actually dreamt to be an F1 driver, or at least a formula racing car driver. But after a little bit experience of karting, I realized the impossibility. Mostly because it is, you probably know, the most expensive sport in the world. But I can still watch it. My favorite team is McLaren. If you are not familiar with McLaren, you’ve probably heard of one of the greatest supercars, the Mercedes-Benz SLR Mclaren, which is made by Mercedes together with McLaren. If you don’t know SLR, check it out here: http://www.topgear.com/us/videos/more/slr-on-track (another McLaren’s supercar, McLaren F1, is also mentioned). Lewis Hamilton, my fav driver in my fav team, just won the world title very dramatically last year and became the youngest F1 champion in history. So I found a photo of him and decided to PS myself into his position. In order to let you see my face and leave myself some work to do, I decided to take the incredible risk of driving a formula one car without wearing a helmet! As Lewis waves to the fans, I turn my head and wave to you! So this is my avatar. Thanks for reading
