Once Lewis retires, F1 will be more diverse because Britain will no longer have three drivers.

I don't know how they can seriously claim that F1 isn't diverse when the drivers are from 14 different countries and four of them are non-White.
You don't hear Zhou, Yuki, or Alexander bitching about "racism" like Lewis does.
 
Well I'll be damned Juri is staying in F2 this year

Hey F2 either ban him or shut the fuck up. Stop with these bullshit "oh we wouldn't have done it that way" statements and either do something about it (and face the fimancial consequences) or just don't say it. Utterly pathetic statement from a bunch of crying wojacks that Hitec haven't bent the knee.

I'm assuming the F2 message is there because Liberty Media (Who own the commercial rights for F2 currently) wants a 'combined message' or whatever shit they're running with, but that's just well out of line. I can't say I particularly remember a statement being made through official channels, and posted publicly, by the actual fucking series itself criticising the decision of an independent team. How utterly ridiculous. He got booted from RB as a Reserve/Test Driver, which is pretty severe punishment, especially for saying one word. I didn't really particularly care about this, in all honesty, beyond 'stupid zoomer', but I'm amazed at the amount of justification it's expected for a team to give for, again, just one word. He at least seems to still have his F2 seat, is still associated with the RB Academy, and supposedly still has sponsors, so I really wonder what'll happen next. Impotent twitter seething about 'a culture of racism' most likely.
 
The F2 statement is stupid as fuck be ause any marginal calls they make that penalise Vips or Hitec now have the undercurrent of perceived (and let's face it actual) bias from it. If they do something really stupid that statement is exhibit A for the plaintiff.

Just give a generic "racism bad, Hamilton's cock good" pr speak generic message and get on with it.

Isn't it "coincidental" that a podcast with a former driver saying a (misrepresented) gamer word almost a year ago is "found" just days after an upcoming star says a gamerword on stream. Almost as if it is a concerted effort to make all the bullshit racebaiting the theme of the British GP. Maybe because their pet darkie has little chance of winning it and they need to distract from that. Also great way to demonise vestappen and red bull since both cases are linked to those.

Qualifying could be damp or at least changeable with the race looking dry but not overly warm (with the merc struggling to warm tyres). Both start at 1500 local time.

And of course, our media ran with the racist angle. It's as if they never went to a house in the suburbs and heard a casual conversation where people called each other "meu nego" or something along the lines. Heck, we even have an assortment of celebrities called Nego, Neguinho and other stuff like that.

Oh, wait! It's because they have never done that! Almost all our journos are upper-class twits that think they know how it is to be poor and actually praise it! @blablabla can confirm this kind of mentality, they call them "abajistas" in Spanish. It's like social climbing, except downwards.

No, seriously, this is why we Brazilians will never amount to anything and why we deserve to live in muck and misery. For all the talk of American pervasiveness in our culture, we are the first to accept it and become servile lapdogs to whatever bullshit their think tanks pull around. It's typical NPC mentality, and the software upgrade for this week is to ignore social context of a term and just use its more glaring meaning.

Also, who the hell is Hamilton to talk about Piquet? Holy shit, this fucker would NEVER be able to drive around a tough-to-handle, actual manual gearbox, no DRS and no HANS Williams, and hold off Senna anywhere, even in fucking Hungaroring.

I'm seriously not looking forward to this weekend, and maybe even skip on the race. You bet everything will be about racism. I watch sports exactly to run away from the constant barrage of "important" sociopolitical grandstanding, and even that has to come to sports because the populace needs to learn to hate itself for the original sin of living in the West.

The buildup to the sessions is going to be unwatchable between muh racism and no doubt some virtue signaling about Roe. I'm just going to turn t the session start time (and have my mute button ready to go if they get exceptional).

Just watch Qualy and the race at starting Time. Fórmula 1 does a pretty good job in casting aside all the political grandstanding the moment they actually has to race
 
Hambone will perform exceptionally terrible this weekend and everything will be blamed on this racism thing. You don't read it here first
Hambone, literally turning out the same terrible performance as every race this season so far:
Sky News journos: "You can tell he's weighed down by the current events, no wonder the 7-time world champion struggles so hard this race, his heart and mind are somewhere else this weekend"
 
Someone should ask Hamilton if he still supports the domestic terror, murder and million $ scam group BLM. That would shake him up

And to build it up further maybe Hamitlon should loose all titles for supporting a terror group like BLM. After all terrorists can't be supported by celebrities right? Right?

I usually try to watch the whole weekend, but with how much shit's happened over the past few days, I may have to give most of it a miss.
 
Sexy new Williams just dropped

That's another team taking the Red Bull/Alpine way and a small sidepod one too. Merc on suicide watch.

Alpine have a bit of Ferrari now too.

Albert Fabrega on twitter is worth a follow for new stuff.

French GP is when the porpoising TD goes into effect.


And now for more racism.

Max has said Piquet is not racist but Hamilton comment was not right.

Pretty sensible however people who have never interacted with Piquet think otherwise and are mad.
 
In regards to the weather the FIA just announced that the teams will be allowed to warm their tyres over night to counter the cooler temperatures. Someone remember the times when teams simply had "to deal with it"? Fucking hell.
Oh and i really hope that Merc won't be able to handle the proposing regulation and as consequence have to ruin their setup. That would be the epic "KARMA!" for bitching about porpoising and doing a little drama show at Baku

Hadn't looked at this thread or anything Hambone related for a couple of days so I figured the talk about the meaning of "neguinho" was a bit excessive, but nope. It seems there has been exactly zero discussion about anything related to Lewis's racing in the media for the past few days, just nonstop muh racism. The only good take I've seen thus far is from Jackie Stewart, who says Lewis should retire and go work in fashion full-time.
