Are we checking? This is a place to take a p*ss out of motorsports.
F1 is not the only motorsport in the world, so go ahead and post your shitposts about WEC or MotoGP or IndyCar or ralley or Polish Speedway or whatever. Even Formula E, I guess. It needs some love, too.
By the way, F2 > F1.
Rules? What rules? Stop inventing. Just don't be a douche. Lemmy.world's sporting conduct applies.

U mad bro
No, I'm just not part of the Hamilton club. He's an incredible driver, but his attitude sucks. In most people's eyes he can do no wrong. Virtual safety car gave him the easier overtake with Sainz. Sainz less than a second behind Hamilton he's already wanting Leclarc to swap, lap 36? He is past Leclarc late lap 38? So I see a full 2 laps of trying to figure out tires and Sainz before saying go ahead. The whole time Hamilton making shitty remarks, meanwhile Leclarc's tires were improving. He was defending against Sainz(which allowed Hamilton an easier pass), pre vsc, and is now pulling away. The give it back was only fair...and he did cry about that one. That wasn't a burn to the pit wall, it was a hissy fit that he had to give the position back.
His attitude towards his directionless team? They would be better off with him calling the orders. Charles would likely benefit as well.
No...his whole demeanor. On and off the track. I agree Ferrari needs an overhaul. Charles has been screwed by them for several years now. Hamilton was a primadonna long before Ferrari though. His "I'm a rockstar" and "Look at me" just puts me off. You don't see other drivers showing up dressed like he's Zoolander. Downvote all you want😂 Just because I speak against the grain here...I said he's an incredible driver.
The 4-5 laps of waiting I see as being completely wrong. Sainz was within .5 until lap 36. If Leclarc would have did a little lift to give Hamilton the spot they would have risked losing that place, Leclarc would risk being passed that is, to Sainz. Hindsight is 20/20 though.
Who cares what the guy wears
Correct...it's just a visual for example of how he acts though. And his on track performance the last few years? The fan club just keeps hanging on though. He was whining the whole time verstapen was dominating and he just has to be center of attention so he didn't want to wait for Mercedes to get the car right. He asked for the FIA to step in and slow them down. Now a rookie and his previous second are a minute ahead? He is whining, rightly so now that Ferrari is screwing him...but he is whining. He made the choice that shocked his long time friend Toto now live with it. Did he think Ferrari was going to change instantly when he showed up??? Did he not see Ferrari screwing Sainz and Leclarc repeatedly???
AGAIN...I think he was an incredible driver but people are so enthralled with him that they are blind to everything else. Go ahead, downvote away.
The monk outfit is a little over the top LMAO 🤣
