Taki Inoue on Twitter!

Postby midgrid » 11 Jan 2011, 02:13

Apologies if this has already been posted somewhere else, but I have just found out that Taki Inoue is on Twitter! (Verified here.) Most of his tweets are in Japanese, but he does occasionally post in English:

Good morning, Mate! raining as usual here in Monaco. Shouldn't be like this. Who changed climate?


The best Japanese restaurant in Monaco is YOSHI. Yoshi means good in Japanese. But price is NO YOSHI. Too high for Japanese food!......


When u go to SUSHI Restaurant, it would better to have SASHIMI first before u order SUSHI. But not too much! Hehehe!


Perhaps someone who has a Twitter account can ask him if this YouTube account is also real, and perhaps point him in the direction of this site? :)

Maybe we should invite him to this thread. He probably wouldn't give a rat's a** about it, but it's worth a shot. ;)

It would show that not every F1 fan wanted to run him over with the safety car.

Haha!! I can imagine a Japanese person saying the exact same sentence, word for word! I even read it with a Japanese accent in my head! :lol:

(By the way I know it was because of the character limit but its still funny!)

Yeah, the man just asked for directions. I don't have a twitter account, so please, Phoenix, send him the link. It would be great that he came to follow this forum. After all, despite few inocent jokes, I have the utmost respect for him and followed his career with interest!

Hi guys,

Awesome work! Could I ask that if he does make contact that someone get in touch with me (send me an email) so maybe Jamie and I can see if we can arrange an interview or something with him.

Also, could I please just ask for future reference, if any of you are going to contact one of the drivers we've profiled and refer him/her to our site, to email us to give us a heads-up? It's only that many of the profiles were written ten years ago, when we were ten years younger and perhaps with less discretion than we ought to have exercised. We wouldn't want a driver reading his profile and arriving at the conclusion that we were insulting him or her! So if we could have a chance to check the profile and maybe edit it first, that would be good.

For the record, I've just done a quick edit of the Inoue profile which is online.
I was born the day after HWNSNBM. Given time zone differences, we may have been born at the same time.

Seems he has completely forgotten about me and probably (and worse still) about leaving us a message :cry:
