This is racing the world over, always has been. It sucks, but it’s reality. Racing has always been about money. Go check out nascar twitter, rally twitter, indy twitter...they all bitch about pay drivers. Hell, I think the only series that’s honest about it is WEC with the “gentlemen drivers”.

I disagree. While there are inconsistencies, the officiating body and stewards have a pretty impossible job. This isn’t like NASCAR: ostensibly a spec series where certain teams are allowed to cheat , anything goes on track, and the entire thing is a laughable shitshow doesn’t even resemble actual racing.

If you were Bottas would you? Good for him.

Where’s Flavio when you need him?

F1 has a long history of questionable rules-related decisions and a shit ton of asterisks. It doesn’t matter.

Eh, I usually end up with “fuck em both”. Both teams are whiny fuckers when it suits them. Really hope Mclaren or Alpine can make headway.

No

Wow, I don’t know how to feel about this one.

So you’re saying that the police killed these people? What, by remote fucking control?

Maybe their actions rather than the result of them led to their demise? I mean, it’s like blaming the wall after driving into it.

In what way was this a comply or die situation? Oh, you mean when the carjacker pointed a gun at the driver and made them the offer to comply or die...ah, gotcha.

So, in your mind they’re dead because they didn’t comply, but nothing to do with their actions at all. Interesting take.

Criminal was willing to shot someone for the property in this case.

So, when the criminal in this case points a gun at a person and threatens to shoot them for property, that’s ok. Is that what you’re saying?

I love Formula One and could get all nerdy and long-winded about Max but, in the end, it comes down to this:

I feel like a person who is stealing cars at gunpoint (known as carjacking where I come from) is a violent criminal worth pursuing, not just some poor homeless vet trying to feed his family or some shit.

Whether they’re capable isn’t the issue or question, it’s whether increasing risk to the civilian football fans in the stadium had any purpose whatsoever other than to amuse the pilots.

I’m fairly neutral when it comes to HAM v VER, although I do still see Max as way too aggressive/volatile/impetuous for how long he’s been in F1.

The narrative that Mercedes had “so much more top speed” at Interlagos is getting annoying. They only did because Red Bull had one of the slowest cars on the straights.

Honestly? I didn’t even know Lincoln still sold models other than the Navigator...and I live in metro Detroit. Is anyone buying these things?
