It's a fun day of racing, and I'm looking forward to it, but that article, to me, reads like propaganda.
You're quite right on that. It should not be taken as journalism, only like a press release. Everything looks great over there right now, and they're all working fine, and no one has ever looked any better, and it sunny, and on and on.
