Alright, so you wanna know about this Jolyon Palmer fella, huh? And how tall he is? Well, lemme tell ya, I ain’t got no ruler to measure him, but I can sure tell ya what I’ve heard and seen, you know, like them folks on the TV talking ’bout him.
First off, they say this Jolyon guy, Jolyon Carlyle Palmer his full name, was born in 1991. That makes him… well, I ain’t good at math, but he’s been around a while. He used to drive them fancy race cars, the ones that go zoom-zoom real fast. Formula One, they call it. Drove for somethin’ called Renault, I think. Drove for them in 2016 and 2017.
Now, about his height. Them race car drivers, they gotta be small, see? Can’t be too tall, or they won’t fit in them little cars. They say height and weight matter in that racin’ business. A tall fella, he’s got more wind pushin’ against him, makes the car slower, I reckon. And squeezin’ into that tiny car seat, that ain’t easy if you’re a giant.
I heard tell Jolyon ain’t no giant. He’s probably… well, I’d say he’s about average, maybe a little shorter. Not like them basketball fellas, you know? He’s gotta be smaller to fit in that race car. They don’t give you exact numbers on TV, not like they do with the weight of them prize-winning pumpkins at the county fair. But you can tell just by lookin’ he ain’t no beanpole.
- They say he had a good race in Australia once, but then things didn’t go so well for him.
- And there was some fuss in Qatar, about him drivin’ too slow or somethin’. They took away his pole position, which I guess is a big deal in racin’.
- Poor fella even found out he was gettin’ fired from his racin’ team by readin’ it in a magazine! Can you believe that? That’s like findin’ out your prize hog ran off by readin’ the newspaper.
Anyway, Jolyon ain’t racin’ no more. Now he’s on the TV, talkin’ about other folks racin’. He’s a whatchamacallit, a pundit. He tells you what’s what on them race tracks. He’s on BBC, Channel 4, and somethin’ called F1TV. I see him sometimes when I’m flickin’ through the channels, you know, tryin’ to find somethin’ besides them soap operas my granddaughter watches.
So, to sum it up, this Jolyon Palmer fella is a former race car driver. He ain’t no giant, gotta be on the shorter side to fit in them cars. He’s probably just a regular-sized fella, maybe a bit on the short side. They don’t say exactly how tall he is, but it ain’t important. What’s important is he used to drive them fast cars and now he talks about them on TV. And that’s about all I know about Jolyon Palmer’s height, or anything else about him for that matter.
And let me tell you, these race car drivers, they got it tough. All that speed and danger. It ain’t like drivin’ a tractor, that’s for sure. You gotta be brave and skilled and… well, I guess you gotta be kinda short too!
I heard they had problems with the races in Italy too, somethin’ about flaws in the sport. Seems like there’s always some drama in that racin’ world. Just like there’s always drama at the church bingo night, I tell ya!
So there you have it. That’s all this old woman knows about Jolyon Palmer and his height. He’s a race car driver, or was, and now he’s a talkin’ head on TV. And he ain’t no giant. That’s all, folks!
