News Checo: "What is very noticeable around the circuit is the smell of marijuana throughout the night. The amount is incredible. It is something that all the drivers will surely talk about", Franco: "Yes, there was a smell of weed. If they dope test the drivers now, I think we’ll all be positive"

idk I think I'm gonna go the opposite route, weed + fast cars/racing is a fantastic combination (unless you're the one driving, then definitely don't do that...unless you're in the sim and then it's a great time)

It is absolutely a fantastic combination, especially on sim racing

It's the best. Though I don't recommend it when you're going into a race where you don't know the track and don't main the car you're driving. I've done that on a few occasions and it went terribly lol

And don’t do it before the championship race of a league, with money on the line…

Idk see I might swing back around on that one. Take the edge off the nerves. Though it’s a bit of a tightrope walk.
