Hi there!

Welcome to The Sideline Journal – a personal blog created by me, a 20-something who’s been around various sports her whole life but only started watching Formula 1 and tennis a few years ago.

As I became more interested in these sports, I quickly realized that finding simple explanations of the rules, the teams... basically everything, is surprisingly rare. So, I thought, why not do it myself? Don’t get me wrong, I’ve got the basics down, but I’ve learned that in sports, there's always more beneath the surface.

And honestly? While the action on the track or court caught my eye at first, the sidelines (whether it’s the paddock or the player box) can be just as interesting. The outfits, the people, the energy – they deserve a moment of their own.

So, whether you’re new to the sport and want to learn the basics without the overload or just here for the sidelines, come along for the ride. You’re in good company.
