Let’s go @fernandoalo_oficial and @lance_stroll - racing green ‘til we die!! All F1 races must cover a minimum distance of 305km, so with a track length of 4657m here in Barcelona, how many laps should we expect to see? #tomrocksmaths #formula1 #astonmartin

Say hello to the newest member of the @astonmartinf1 team (I wish!!). It was a lot of fun being in the garage during free practice in Barcelona, and as a fellow fluid dynamicist I have an incredible amount of respect and admiration for the aero performance team in particular. Fingers crossed for a podium!! #tomrocksmaths #astonmartin #formula1

TRM Intern Siddiq is back with another original maths-themed love song “Me + You”. This one requires a little mathematical explanation to really appreciate the lyrics, so you have to put up with me teaching you some maths first. Premieres at 12pm today (GMT+1) #tomrocksmaths #TRMintern #mathslovesong

Just like buses, there's a second helping of Teddy Rocks Maths Essays for you to enjoy in as many days.
