**The Stig**

This guy, who’s indoctrinating his child. We’re most impressionable in youth, little brains soaking in surroundings and making forever inferences, connections that’ll last a lifetime. When my best friend had a daughter, I [sent him Janet Guthrie’s autobiography](<https://www.thedrive.com/accelerator/381/janet-guthrie-makes-me-smile>) to read to her; this guy is doing me one better. *Do not fear the racing driver*, he says. *Embrace the racing driver*. The kid’s adorable, and the look on her face says it’s working. Hero.
