That podium, in a Sauber, after too many close calls ans heartbreaks, while fending off Lewis Hamilton and his 7 World Championships at his home turf to keep that 3rd place...
That's what dreams are made of! Seriously, that made grown men cry out of pure joy!
I started bad (1st one wrong) then it went pretty good until q5 (I should have known because it sounded familiar and I knwo about steel than the other ones, but for whatever reason i was strongly drawn to rubber... ehm the answer..) then ok obviously the movie one wrong and q10.
Dangit. I could’ve had a fluky 10/10 but I missed the coin flip on the Finnish question. I knew that Sami is a very small minority, but went Russian instead of Swedish because I figured the historical overlap might mean that some Russian populations ended up in Finland’s borders after one of the wars. Oh well, the last question was a blind guess (aside from Verstappen, obviously).
Not a great day for me, 7/10. Can't believe I got salsa wrong (in my defence, my Portuguese is better than my Spanish, and "saltar" is the Portuguese word for jump, while sauce is "molho" 😅); the others I'm not as surprised by: I went for Affleck over Cage, and I narrowed down the F1 drivers to the two I'd never heard of, but guessed wrong
7/10 although on Q3 it was a misclick my cuz mouse froze. I thought the last Beatles concert was Candlestick Park, San Francisco, and along with a lot of others, went with Sami. But I did just watch a few videos of live Beatles concerts....good memories. One of the smart quizmakers should make a format that uses short audio clips, like: 'Name this Song', 'Name this Artist', 'Name this Movie'
That’d be awesome but most certainly would lead to legal issues and wouldn’t be allowing on JetPunk. There is a user who makes name that tunes quizzes but you have to open a link to a YouTube video of music snippets.

I guess you can't make a spelling mistake it it's a wrong answer anyway!
Took the wrong 50/50 between Nico and Daniel.
Was very surprised it wasn't Sami.
The rest I knew.
So not a great round, you beat me I just saw :)
In the immortalised words of Connor Moore, "It's like I always say. (Nico Hulkenberg) does NOT go (238) races without a (podium)."
I mean 238 race without podium finish, 21 % going with Max who's 4 time World Champion..
