If you drive in #France and suddenly see something milky on the roads, it's not a new farmers' protest. It's called "lait de chaux".
This #whitewash consisting of lime and water is a try to protect the bitumen in the roads from melting due to more and more heatwaves: franceinfo.fr/environnement/ev The streets are about 10 degrees cooler due to the white colour.
This week-end, we will have up to 37°C.

The author [#KateWagner] criticized the general state of #FormulaOne, arguing that it has grown boring amid the dominance of Red Bull Racing star Max Verstappen.
