The name was meant to refer to the heavy air pollution once produced by the local petrochemical industry, [1] [2] and from Dorman Long.

Then, as a local, there are the internal subtleties. The lingo of East Cleveland, although linked, is still totally recognisable from that of downtown Middlesbrough or Eston. And, even a few decades ago, someone with a sharp ear could still make a fairly good guess as to which town or village a person came from just by their voice. Then, the Loftus accent was not the Guisborough twang, and what was said in Brotton was not the same thing as Lingdale chat.

Smoggy appeared in their last race of the season at the Razzway GP. Smoggy ended up leading the race for all but one lap, and won their first ever Marbula One Grand Prix. The team regained their lead in the standings, 14 points clear of the Savage Speeders. Smoggy also took the lead in the individual Racers' Championship standings. Unfortunately, Hazy did not perform very well at Midnight Bay GP,finishing in 8th. Meanwhile, Speedy went on to win the race. As a result, the Hazers missed out on the Teams' Championship while Smoggy dropped to third in the final standings of the individual Racer's Championship. The Hazers come from an unspecified region within East Asia. In fact, the team's origins are shrouded in mystery. No one has been able to get any leads on the team's origins, either from the team themselves or from outside sources, although in early 2019, a journalist discovered a Hazers souvenir shop south of Hunluen. Hazers have indeed been hesitant to talk about their origin, claiming the topic is unimportant. But they insist that they know who they are and what they are doing in the Marble League. a b Kerswill, Paul (23 July 2018).

[14] Marco Del Castillo, a Smoggys Founder, said: “It is down to the support of our nation, that Smoggys has come to life as an operating business, set to make a real difference. With the fires continuing to rage, the smoke blanketing our skies and our volunteers out there giving it their all, the launch of Smoggys couldn’t have come any sooner. While training for the Marble League 2020 Friendly Round, the Hazers received an invite from the JMRC to take part in Marbula One Season 1. The team accepted and chose Hazy, "Jetstream", and Smoggy, "Smokebomb", to represent them, believing that they both could translate the team's performance in the Marble League into Marbula One. To clear up the controversy regarding their origins, the Hazers were kind enough to give a hint about their origins through their announcement poster.

After Marbula One Season 2 ended, the Hazers received an invitation from the Balls of Chaos to compete in the Cranthym Challenges that featured a mix between sports and puzzles. The tournament included some teams in Marble League such as the O'rangers, the Pinkies and the Kobalts. The team managed to get first in the first challenge, ninth in the second one, a 2nd place, a 6th-place and a 9th place followed. Then came an 8th, a 5th and an 11th. At this point the team has got 37 points and were sitting in third place. Guild of Wit were in first, the Balls of Chaos were in second and the team was tied with the Whizlers. The Hazers managed to get gold in the penultimate challenge and got 5th in the last challenge, but Whizler's gold in the final event was not enough for the team to win the tournament. The team finished the tournament in 2nd, just one point behind the Whizlers. In middle of May, Smoggy participated in Marble League 2021 Practice Race and got 11th. The phoneme /aɪ/ (as in prize) may become a monophthong [ɑː] before a voiced consonant. For example, five becomes [fɑːv] (fahve), prize becomes [pʰɹɑːz] (prahze). This does not occur before voiceless consonants, so "price" is [pʰɹaɪs]. [13] In the small terraced Skelton street I lived in up to a couple of years ago, there were men and women whose birthplace was Ireland, Suffolk, Cornwall, Durham and Lancashire.
