BREAKING NEWS LATEST FROM RB GARAGE DRAMA.

Close enough. I'm too lazy to set up a local AI instance to try to get better results.

It is still too early to tell, but this is the second race in a row where Osama Bin Russell has outdone Hamilton, and it may just be as simple as age is taking a greater toll on Hamilton than it has on Alonso(it seems that how well drivers do as they get older, is totally random), but Hamilton's first year at Ferrari could be a disaster and be his only year at Ferrari.

Can you imagine John Elkann going to Hamilton and say "Sorry Lewis we have decided to not hire you., As compensation here is your agreed upon salary. Too bad it didn't work out" and then goes into the sunset and hands the second Ferrari to Bearman or even better Verstappen while Newey appears in the distance too. Though let's be real': I can't see Verstappen leave Red Bull now, not with him basically crushing the opposition each race. Yes, the Horner kerfuffle is a disturbance but so far the team works like one unit. And who is actually able to threaten them? Mercedes seems to have fallen further back while Mclaren and Ferrari seem to have cemented P3 and P2 respectively. Leclerc can only threaten a bit in Qualifying but race pace wise he isn't there. Good thing is that Ferrari seems to have their tyres now under control. But now they need a bit more. Imagine if Red Bull comes with a zero pod concept in Suzuka and blows everyone out of the water
 
I wonder if Lewis just doesn't give a fuck cause he's out and odds of a win are low anyway. Not like he should have any loyalty to the team that built him unbeatable cars for almost a decade, of course. George is a cunt but he is wringing that thing's neck, meanwhile Lewis doesn't really sound or look bothered to me.

Amazing how Carlos was back at the track watching the race by the way. His surgeon must've been a... smooth operator.
 
Came across this video and found it so amusingly bad that I thought I should share it here, especially since there’s no race this weekend.

A funny comparison: Pato O’Ward finished fourth in 2023 in the main IndyCar series. Jamie finished twelfth. In the supporting series. She’s currently in 20th this year. If Pato isn’t likely to get a seat, why would a team give a seat to someone who finished 24 laps down in their last race? Not even Lewlew’s diversity pushes can bring you up with those results.

In the Indycar thread I was talking about how fucking bad she was in nxt last weekend. Fucked the car then just screamed at her team without articulating what was wrong.

I ain't watching that shit, how the fuck does she think Jamie's better?
 
People are always desperate to be victims. Women already get their own subsidised special retard series nobody watches because they suck too much to compete. Not to mention, if ever a woman was able to perform (even at Latifi/Mazepin levels) she'd be snapped up quicker than you can say 'PR and Sponsorship billions'.

There is no glass ceiling in an industry like this, where every team and sponsor would be desperate to have you if you were even remotely qualified.
 
I've certainly never seen a driver forget/miss/not care that the race is over and blat it round for another lap before. And I still haven't because I don't watch that shit, I just heard about it.

Clearly some way to go before getting to F1, oh wait she's 20 and hasn't got to the point where she's ready for F3 yet, so not happening.

Lewlew looks less like a F1 racer and more like a late-millennial/early-to-mid-zoomer Soundcloud rapper

Well you're half right. He certainly wishes he was a famous rapper (then he'd have some street cred with the African muricans he really wishes he was one of) so his shit will be somewhere out there on the likes of soundcloud. But he ain't no late millennial, he's the "hello fellow kids" kind.

So in other words, F1 racing's own Dan Nainan, a failed standup comedian who pretends to act he's a millennial to sell his audience of millennials and zoomers, but is in reality a sad, pathetic boomer

Slightly tangentially but I really hated how much they lorded hambone as an ambassador for the sport with all his fashion, music, social media nonsense. Pre DTS they kept believing all his faggy shit would bring the "wider audience" in to F1 and went as far as giving Seb shit for keeping his private life private and refusing to constantly be on social media.

Of course the people hambone was appealing to with his gay shit wasn't going to translate into motorsport fans and just served to pin the hopes of the sport on fickle insta fashion and shit music followers.

Now I often see (idiots) on social media complaing the same shit, that Max has no passion and is really bad for the sport (as if hambones "wow thanks everyone at the factory" victory speeches were so emotive).

1. you don't drag people into liking motorsports by flouncing around in some fashion abortion.

And

2. Max is passionate, to an autistic level, about motorsport. His popularity in streaming will translate to people into sim racing maybe checking out the real thing (and yes there are lots of fans of simracing that aren't fans of real motorsport for some reason).

Hell Max was streaming iRacing till after 2am before the Saudi GP, then still smoked the field. Hence this meme
