"Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people's thinking." Hi there, I am Veer and I come from a family that lives and breathes football, but somehow I never could fit into that mold. Ever since I was a kid, something about motorsport drew me in and helped me develop a lifelong love for racing. The sight of Formula 1 cars zipping past a turn close to 200 miles an hour just makes you appreciate the sport in a different way. I love to write about Formula 1 because I think it's the purest form of racing there is. With each race, the fascination grows stronger. When it comes to life beyond F1, I am also a proud dad of 2 beautiful tom cats, so when I am not at my desk, my cats are an unending source of joy for me. Needless to say, I love to talk about racing all the time, so you're always welcome to drop a message to me.

"Racing is the constant search for the weakest point and the relentless pursuit of perfection — it never ends." This quote captures the essence of my approach to writing about Formula 1. Just like the teams I cover, I am always chasing the perfect synthesis of speed, precision, and engaging storytelling. I am Pulkit, one of the many voices behind the world of Formula 1 at EssentiallySports. My journey into the realm of F1 journalism didn't take the conventional route. With a mind honed by the rigors of engineering, I peel back the layers of this thrilling sport, dissecting the cutting-edge technology that propels these machines beyond mere speed. I've earned a reputation for my nuanced understanding of the sport that resonates with both hardcore enthusiasts and casual fans. My articles not only illuminate the wizardry under the hoods but also connect the dots between the paddock and the people involved. My flair for storytelling isn't limited to the technical aspects. Influenced by my love for cinema, I weave narratives that bring the paddock to life, offering readers a seat at the epicenter of strategy, human endeavor, and the relentless drive that fuels legends like Niki Lauda and modern icons such as Lewis Hamilton. My affinity for Mercedes isn't just about the wins; it's about the spirit of innovation they embody — a trait I try to mirror in my articles.

"Chaos is Order yet Undeciphered." - said Noble prize winner José Saramago, essentially meaning the path to success is not always linear and something, I, Mahim Suhalka truly believe in. I have written over 1800 articles in my tenure at EssentiallySports so far making me one of the senior writers in the division. My passion for Formula 1 is highlighted in my writing as I try to make the coverage as informative and in-depth as I can. My support for Mercedes AMG Petronas F1 team and their #44 driver Lewis Hamilton came naturally after being awestruck by the brilliance during my foray into F1. However, my one true passion is football and I have been a player and avid consumer of the sport since childhood. This passion for sports from an early age can be credited to my education in a boarding school which has shaped me into the disciplined and hardworking individual that I am today. I have learned how to cook for the sole reason of making my lifestyle healthier and to achieve my fitness goals. I have continued being a writer at this publication for the sole purpose of improving myself and becoming a better journalist.
