Summary

From the point-of-view of spectator or driver, our addicts discuss their favourite race circuits in the world, with some honourable mentions.

What is the best armrest in a car? Our armchair interior designers decide on their favourites: hard or soft, wide or thin, equipped with fridge boxes or 'non-American' - no detail is spared!

What is the best way to spend a long drive? Alone, with one's own thoughts, favourite music, or podcasts offers quality undisturbed time. On the other hand, company unlocks conversations that would otherwise seldom occur. Perhaps one would even prefer Manish's way of being chauffeured in silence, allowing full concentration on solving life problems?

This is episode 60 of the Collecting Addicts podcast, so sit back, relax, and enjoy the show!
