I was finally able to attend Monterey Car Week and had the immense privilege of bringing our Valkyrie, Freyja. I managed 1,100 miles in 5 days taking her everywhere I possibly could. Backroads, parallel parking, the car ate it up like a champion. Oftentimes the saying “don’t meet your heroes” is accurate when it comes to cars. Not here. The Valkyrie is even better than I imagined it would be. It’s not without faults, but as a driving experience it is truly a level above anything else on the road. Fully active suspension makes it the best riding sports car, even better than the McLarens. Perfect input weighting, delightfully tactile steering and an engine from the gods at Cosworth. I find that as cars become more capable, they become less and less engaging as the car has to protect itself from the driver. Here is a car that asks far more of you as a driver than anything being built today. It’s challenging, spiteful and unbelievably rewarding- and more than a little terrifying. The best cars are dance partners and the Valkyrie tangos in a red open back dress with a flaming smirk. Im a very, very, very lucky boy. taken in Monterey, California by @graynewell

Win or lose on the racetrack, this is what truly matters. 💙

Today we visited our friends at Seattle Children’s. Spending time with these incredible kids is a reminder of what real courage and strength look like. They are the true heroes. 🦸 taken in Seattle Children's Hospital by @graynewell

$Leaving São Paulo after a bittersweet weekend. Incredible effort by the whole @theheartofracing crew, and so proud of @graynewell and @pauwelskobe for their run to get us not only into Hyperpole, but then to take pole. This grid is truly world-class, so that’s is a real statement. The race was a tough one, and tyre degradation was a real factor as we struggled for outright pace. The end result doesn’t take away anything from the efforts of the team and, one thing’s for sure, we will be back and ready for Lone Star Le Mans ⭐ #fiawec #6hsaopaulo #heartofracing #astonmartin taken in Autodromo Interlagos by @graynewell$
