The only man that I have watched the sunrise with multiple times, we had always wanted to close the book together.
The day has come, my friend.
Let‘s go race like hell and see what happens on the other side.

To the guy I‘ve idolized. To the guy I geeked out over at DIS when filling in the 43 in 2017. To the guy that‘s been all class on n off the track. To the guy who called me just about every day during the madness of this season. To the guy I‘m honored to call friend. Thanks JJ!ud83eudd18ud83cudffe pic.twitter.com/rnJ0GucbxG

No one has done it better! Champion of life more than anything and this video shows a lot of that. Incredible things on the track, off of it, and everywhere in between. I‘m sure glad I get to line up across the bar from him from now on instead the starting grid. ud83dude1c. #48 https://t.co/11etvPKBdj
