It looks like everyone else decided to scrub that photo, but darkmarlin16 has been holding onto it for two years now and shows absolutely no sign of letting go
Look, let's just say one of the mods was the one who suggested it. Let's call him dg, so he probably figured it was better to just scrub that photo ASAP
I’ve got this sinking feeling this whole thing is going to be a total dud; I mean, I called the backmarkers perfectly, but after that, I was basically flying blind
stormybadger8 said:Seriously, what is so wrong about calling Charlie a total jerk? Is there anyone in this thread who actually thinks he’s a decent guy? 🙂
But honestly, let’s talk about his calls and how the FIA operates for a second... How is calling Charlie a jerk any worse than straight-up lying to race officials or cooking up fake penalties just to line his own pockets while screwing over Jarno Trulli?
And how is calling him names worse than testing current cars and tires whenever they feel like it, ignoring every single rule in the book?
Or how is it worse than diving headfirst into a direct title contender just to boot them out of a race?
Lewis Hamilton pulled off all three of those moves and didn't face any real consequences—actually, for some people, there weren't even penalties at all, so what does that tell you???
Maybe he’s protected like some kind of untouchable heavyweight champion in every single situation? Or maybe—just maybe—the FIA has always been criminally inconsistent with their decisions and their punishments... It feels like their rulings are more a reflection of whoever holds the political power in Formula 1 right now rather than anything based on logic, the rulebook, or basic honesty...
I mean, come on, we're talking about an organization that managed to hand Fernando Alonso the win in Singapore 2008, even though anyone with half a brain can see Nelson Piquet Jr. basically drove into a wall and would have won if things had gone normally, and that he only "won" because the whole thing was rigged in his favor... and to make it even more insane, the team actually got to keep those points, despite that victory being a total farce orchestrated by the powers that be...
So yeah, we can keep pretending there's actual substance when it comes to the FIA and how they punish people 🤦
Total lie.
Go watch the race again before you start talking nonsense.

And if you actually have eyes, you can clearly see that the second driver is performing way worse than Gutierreza or Palmer
