Hey TRG! I have one question directed mainly to the racers:
-What's the most distracting thing when driving out there?
Inspired by this nsfw gif.

Thank you for doing this AMA. I hope you are doing well now.
Do you think there is a largely negative stigma in Japan regarding being open about mental illness? Follow-up question: Do you think this public perception will ever change over time?

Hey, TRG! I'm rooting for you guys in Daytona 24H! I'm a young motorsport enthusiast with a few questions, about the team and racing in general.
-Most Aston Martins are a tad heavy. They're loaded with sumptuous creature comforts. How did the whole procedure for removing weight go? Was it relatively easy to strip weight off the Vantages?
-In Formula One, the racers have a vigorous physical exercise routine and they have to stay rather lean. Did your drivers have to do the same?
-Staying awake for 24 hours is murderous for anyone working with such intensity and focus. How do you and the entire team manage to pull this off? Do you take shifts, energy drinks, or is it pure adrenaline keeping you all awake?
-Of all cars, why Aston Martin? Was it a personal choice or did you compare the specifications before deciding? (If you chose off of looks, I completely understand. Those Vantages are gorgeous!)
-What is the process of discovering/hiring drivers to race for TRG?
-What's your opinion on driverless cars? Are you worried if motorsports might come to an inevitable end because of them?
-With 3D printing, anything is possible. There are certain components on a car that just costs so much to produce. Even something like a turbocharger could cost thousands. With 3D printing, do you think that tuning parts will be more affordable to the general public, while still maintaining that same level of performance?
-As years go on, it seems that teenagers are getting less and less interested with driving, nevermind the even smaller percentage of petrolheads. Do you think the spirit to race competitively is dwindling away in younger generations?
-Final question, I promise! Because of the time differences with the races and the lack of channels to show them, the USA is a bit out of the loop. If you were Jean Todt, how would you make FIA-sanctioned racing leagues, such as Formula 1 or FIA GT3/GT1, more readily available to the States?
Thanks so much and I wish you guys the best of luck tonight and tomorrow.

What do you feel when creating new music and how does it affect the final outcome?
What were your major inspirations?
How do you feel about your musical experimentation in Trap and will you consider making more trap music? Why or why not?
