I’m a big fan of records, and believe that it’s healthy when they are set and when they are broken – even when some of them ‘belong’ to your favourites.

That old axiom about them being ‘made to be broken’ is trite, but like most clichés, it’s a cliché because it’s true. And is there a better indication of a sport’s health than when it is moving forward, even if it is just one car and driver combination that is making all the headlines?
