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.

Look at Danica Patrick. Spent 10 years in Nascar and had sponsors lining up to be on her hood, sold a lot of merchandise despite being concentrated puke. Compared to her teammates who were racing for championships, she was struggling to stay on the lead lap. Hell, there are tons of female drivers who outright suck (Deegan, Decker, Breidinger, etc.) who still have sponsors falling over themselves for them. The second a girl comes along who can compete with the men, she'll be more marketable than Hambone guaranteed.

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.

The suits pushing for a "more diverse audience" failed to take into account that people aren't suddenly going to like motorsports because some guy in it is spouting all the Current Thing catchphrases. Left-wing progressive zoomers and People of Melanin who like motorsports would be fans with or without Pewis Pamilton saying #BLM on Instagram and dressing like a Studio 54 reject.

It must have hurt Indycar the most because Danica at least was adept at open-wheel stuff. They really could have needed that popularity boost.

Don't know but look forward to drama.

I just caught a YouTube about F1 driver work outs I did not know how intense the neck stuff was or how heavy brake pedal is. Driving a car with a clutch that heavy I can't picture how sore an ankle must be after a race.

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.

She has a point about Stroll though, maybe Jamie Chadwicks dad can buy Aston Martin if she wants to be in F1 so bad.

This is something we've been seeing throughout media. What movie studios/sports broadcasters/video game creators haven't been realizing is, that by being woke, they're pandering to a screeching minority on Twitter, who will never be happy anyway. And because they don't actually care about the product, they often don't even turn up to consume it, and definitely won't be passionate enough to stick around and invest money into it. Their goal is to screech and once they're done with you they'll find the next thing to screech about.

Stroll is a meme and only in that car because of his daddy, but he still dominated F3 for a season which had the likes of George Russell in it. If anything, how shit Stroll is in F1 tells you how extraordinarily shit women are for not being able to compete in the junior series.
 


Convinced at this point the world will never enjoy something as much as Max Verstappen enjoys racing.

Only after he wins another five World Driver’s Championships. The idea that he’ll quit because he’s bored is cope from Hamilton fans who are worried that he’ll steal the “GOAT” status.

On the one hand he is the heir apparent to Schumacher so 8 would be nice, on the other he seems to be the most interested in other racing disciplines so never say never...

I could definitely see him going elsewhere when his contract runs out in 2028., Just depends what options are out there.

By any chance, is Doriane Pin a person of international finance? That nose of hers appears to have tremendous aerodynamic potential. Maybe she should race with an open face helmet.

Don't know but she races with a French flag helmet so probably not?

Perhaps, but he still has at least two decades of opportunities to go and get the Indy 500 / Le Mans 24. In the meantime, I think he's gonna go for 8 titles in F1 and enjoy being worth zillions to Red Bull.

I'd also like to see Max go for the Daytona 500 in addition to the Triple Crown. I think Mario has the Triple Crown with Daytona instead of LeMans?

So, if Max could get all 4, that would rank him as greatest all around champion in Motorsports, in my view anyway.

I'd like to see him win 10 titles. Then his fans can say ok, 2021 wasn't really his, its Lewis. That would give Lewis 8 WDC and leave Max with 9. Still better than the nig and then the coon followers wouldn't be able to say jackshit anymore about Ham being better than Max or Lewis being 2021 WDC! LOL

If red bull are still dominant i can't see it happening. Max is there to win, the guy just seems hardwired for it. Maybe after he's crested 30 and broken all the records or feels he's falling off but right now, the guy only seems to be getting better.
Apparently he's fond of racing trucks in iracing, that'd be a lot of fun to see.

He'll be 30 by the time his contract ends and unless Ferrari or Lolcedeces over take them not just in car or engine design but also strategy in 2026 he'll have all the records locked up.
