In part 2 of our series on GP basics, we’re covering all the terms. Anything and everything you might hear during the race from general slang to technical jargon. 

DISCLAIMER:  We are neither engineers nor mechanics. Our expertise is in the drama. Not the physics. So, please bear in mind that we are all learning together! Without further ado, class (pt. 2) is in session!
