Brutal shame for McLaren. In a close fight with Ferrari and heading into the first corner it’s looking like Lando P3/4 and Danny Ric P7. Daniel looked to have the better of Leclerc which could’ve meant McLaren best of the rest. Instead Lando is punted by Bottas bringing his consecutive points finish to an unglamorous…

“Charles Leclerc was knocked out in the fray by Lando Norris, and Daniel Ricciardo spun...”
0% accurate.

“You Think China Does ‘Pledges?’”
Assuming you mean this the way it’s implied, this is some expert level delusion. 

Hard yes to a Caribbean beach.

This. All this.
And if we must go to whataboutism, see the millions the CCP starved off or murdered before they turned recently to the Uygur people. They’re only doing now to them what they did in more brutal manners to anyone who didn’t fall in line earlier.  Presumably Cantonese will be on its way out along with Hong…

We, the vaccinated, literally can.  It’s the whole point of the vaccine.

You haven’t been on the internet recently, and definitely not the AV Club...

It’s fun to see your priors surprise you when the data don’t show up. Gadsden flag hell should equal less than 90% seatbelt use. And yet...

Your family was not weird by any measure. Growing up in the burbs (in at least a 70/30 white/poc community) I didn’t know anyone who does this once a week nonsense. Everyone was at least once a day. Twice if your mowing lawns or playing ball, etc. I didn’t learn until I was in hs and growing my hair out that washing…

Amen, Lewis.

Agreed. I’ve lived in KC most my life, went to school in Springfield, lived in Columbia and Rolla for short periods where I was traveling over huge chunks of the state working on campaigns, exceptionally few Missourians toss the “uh” on the end. And everyone knows that half of LOTO is comprised of people from other…

Nah, it’s a pretty great place.

“The Series Found a Way to Screw it Up” lol, rich.

You may be new, but that’s more or less it.

Can’t answer that question, but I’m guessing it’s a bit of both.  More that perhaps RB’s financials are tighter than expected and less that it reflects Max’s mental outlook, but definitely both.

This is gaslighting of the highest order. “I was shocked Toto was going to the stewards after Masi told him this was a stewards decision, not his own, moments after I myself had gone to Masi complaining and he told me to take it up with the stewards...”

I don’t think you’re really wrong, and I definitely get it. But, someone sporting an $80 RBR shirt looking like a fanboy or, probably more specifically, Ferrari gear/Tifosi fanboy but then saying what’s really great gear is $5-35k watches is maybe a little much.

That’s tough because I do love all my McLaren F1 and Porsche Motorsport gear. But if I had to choose one, I’d say my “Nobody’s Perfect” T-shirt. I’ve had it for a bit and rarely wear it now because I’m scared to death of wearing it out to the point it looks like crap...

100% agree which is a happy turn for me regarding some/most Jalop’s motorsport coverage.
Though understandable for Toto to say considering he was Bottas’ manager for so long and much of the internet is dedicated to the idea Toto is a Sith Lord and Mercedes The Empire.
The only thing I guess I’d quibble with a little on…

What a stunning machine
