I live in rural bliss in France. The mobile phone coverage is non-existent. Sadly, Mr Putin and his chums took out the satellite I use to get Internet access (strange but true).
Thus life is a bit complicated until a new service provider get things up and running.
(This was written on an iPhone, while I sat in the dark under a mobile phone tower… I’m off home now…)

Be safe and stay warm.
Hope you and your family are OK Joe.
i’m so sorry Joe. Putin is really something ain’t he
Sorry Joe, our fault, we’ve dropped you in it !
Criticising that wonderful Vlad the Great, Czar of all Russia whilst his cavalry gallops to the rescue of his poor oppressed countryfolk enslaved in that dreadful Nazi stronghold to the South. Happily his mighty artillery have been able to rid the world of the means of dissemination of all the falsehoods perpetrated by your dishonest, ignorant and ill meaning followers.
I await with trepidation a knock on the door and a visit from a nice representative of the FSB with a little posy of Novichok.
Good on you, Joe. Love your work. Hope you keep forging.
kind of strange narrative from those surroundings, looks like someone in rougetowers aint too happy with some recent lines
Joe,
The world would really appreciate if you could return the favour by arranging for Putin’s telecommunications to be taken out.
Thanks for the update Joe, I was wondering what the red line for NATO to take action would be, and I think we’ve just found it if they can’t read your blog!
Need likes on this blog
Joe, chances of Andretti being accepted?
Who knows?
Guess it will probably be nixed by the big bad wolff
It is not his decision
As someone said, “if you have nothing to say, say nothing”.
I am sure that if there is something that you feel that we need to know, you will find a way to inform us.
Too often people post irrelevancy just to post something.
Irony not available in your area Michael?
Thanks–your efforts help your readers appreciate F1 and its place in the real world
Thanks for bothering anyway 🙂
Have you thought of trying starlink. Elon musk’s best earth satellite offering? Very high speed and available in Europe just in the last year
Stay home. Take some days off. Enjoy a bottle or two of the finest. Love that bliss. Keep safe as I’m sure we’ll all hear from you soon!
Yet Another reason we say “#^&% Putin
If we ever needed an example of how connected out world has become, this is it.
Maybe someone directed Putin to your last blog. 🤣
No it happened before that
Joe,
Hope you are restored soon.
I guess there is nothing more to know or say about this just now, but I wonder about the following:
Losing Uralkali cash likely puts Haas team in finincial duress. Regardless of the value of spreading the name of Mr. Haas’ company worldwide, that’s got to hurt.
If that is the case, and I recognize that I am assuming, without evidence, that it does, it might create the perfect opening for Andretti: Buy, or somehow team up with the Haas entry. As Haas is already “American-ish”, culturally it might be easier for Andretti than starting fresh, or buying a fully European team, and if Haas is under duress, the price might be right too.
Just daydreaming….
Joe, your Bentley Continental has its own satellite mast on the roof don’t forget.
Damnit, I wondered that thing was…
Joe,
First Rich Energy and then the Russian sponsors. Can Haas survive?
Enjoy the downtime:-)
Yes. Gene Haas is not poor and unconnected
Hi Joe. Do you think there could have been a financial agreement/compensation between F1 and Haas to stop the partnership Uralkali/Haas, in order to avoid any bad buzz around F1 ?
No
I’m not a journalist and dont need domestic broadband, quiet rural France sounds very appealing but obviously you still need connectivity to earn a living. Hope you are keeping well, and looking forward to creating soem great new content for us…. 😀
Hope all’s well Joe. How did the satellite get taken out?
Cyberattack
Is work of moose and squirrel, to discredit Fearless Leader.
Presto, Mr Larrington!
Hi Joe,
are you planning on doing an “Evening With Joe” in Melbourne this year?
Yes, I am. Keep the Friday open. I just need a little time to st things up after the Internet disaster here in France.
I don’t see Kaspersky on the Ferraris. Are they gone?
I haven’t looked closely
Kaspersky gone from the list of partners on the team website…
Hi Joe,
Can you please settle an argument for me. In the Netflix ‘Drive to survive show’ S4EP9 – ‘Gloves are off’
Is it you on camera saying “No scratching and biting” to Toto as he heads into a press conferences between himself and Christian?
Hope it’s you, as I’ve a whole fiver staked on the outcome.
You have won a fiver
