El Maestro


“Stop managing and start racing” Fangio said to himself Victory lies in the seat of your pants The best laid plans the strategists map out Go silent when dancing the dance A driver knows best when the margins are small In hundredths the outcome depends One choice dearly made defying the grave Keeps a winner in laurels — again” (Memories Of Juan Manuel: July, 2026)
