Not to mention all those trolls who clearly have absolutely nothing better to do with their lives.👍

Man, this is honestly getting ridiculous😵
They’ve managed to turn F1 into just about anything except what it actually ought to be.

At this rate, they might as well just kick the teams off the grid entirely and call it a day—this is officially becoming a joke.👎

fadedpanther51 said:I don't really care about Sebastian Vettel—this is more about the principle of how penalties are handed out—but I'd probably side with Max Verstappen or whoever else in this situation. It just seems like the current trend is treating drivers like special little snowflakes, and I guess the fans are expected to follow suit. It feels a bit like mass brainwashing, honestly.

Didn't you actually criticize Max back at Suzuka 2018 while driving a Suzuki, arguing that a five-second penalty was a joke? 😬

To be honest, getting out onto the track was a bit of a mess... whether that cost him five seconds or so, I honestly have no clue, and frankly, I don't even care.

It seems everyone is skipping over my posts about Suzuka 2018 quite quickly 🤣

Let's see just how competent the folks at Liberty Media actually are...

If those three clowns acting as stewards have even a single brain cell left, they'll ban themselves from every F1 track on the planet for life...
How can people be this dense? It's unreal. 🤦
I don't even know who these supposedly expert stewards Warwick or Pirro are, but I'd bet anything one of them is a complete joke...

It doesn't matter if the penalty makes sense or not, and it doesn't matter who actually got hit with it...
It doesn't even matter who would have actually won if those three clowns hadn't spent the race acting like absolute idiots...
The real question is who would've taken the win, because Lujo definitely wasn't pushing his limits once he heard about the penalty...

But to completely wreck a race that was actually damn good—a race that was shaping up to have one of those nail-biting final ten laps we've been waiting years for—to blow it like this? Only total morons could pull that off. 🤦

And if this doesn't wake up the geniuses over at Liberty, and if it doesn't finally click for them to hire some actual professionals to referee the season, then I honestly don't know what else to say.🤦

Pedro de la Rosa?

Look, nobody—and I mean absolutely nobody—is actually on board with this penalty, whether you listen to the former drivers or the analysts.

It’s just a handful of clowns in here.

crimsonhawk23 said:Weren't you the one defending the Suzuki driver against Max last year? You were claiming a five-second penalty was practically nothing.😬

Go ahead and dig up my old posts—I clearly don't post enough to have much of a paper trail. And what actually happened at Suzuka 2018? I'm not trolling, I'm genuinely asking.

He totally blew it, so yeah, he earned that penalty.

Honestly, they should've slapped him with another one just for tearing up the track like that.

Those two on Sky were suspicious from the get-go

And honestly, looking at everyone they interviewed, nobody deserved a penalty.

So, which absolute geniuses are actually making these calls then???

No way, there are plenty of people out there, especially with Toto and sixty million Englishmen backing him.

fadedpanther51 said:Who are people actually going to remember as the GOAT? Those two, or Lewis Hamilton—even if he goes out and smashes every single one of Schumacher's records?

Look, for the nostalgia crowd, Ayrton Senna and Diego Maradona will always be the kings, even if they aren't. Senna became a total myth after he passed away. If he were still driving today, nobody would be putting him at the very top or calling him the greatest driver to ever live.

The old-school fans will always scream about Michael Jordan, Senna, and Maradona because nostalgia is a hell of a drug. They’ll fight with the younger generation and argue about "the good old days"—you know, the era of cigarette logos on race cars, athletes smoking in interviews, and those legendary, mythical races and games. But honestly? Lewis Hamilton, LeBron James, and Lionel Messi are miles ahead in terms of pure talent. In a head-to-head matchup, they’d absolutely smoke them.

Just a few clowns on here.



Another one claiming they "didn't see" the opponent. Both are German, using the exact same excuses, and it’s clearly just straight-up lying.

What a disgrace.
To snatch a victory right out from under someone and just hand it over... 👎

It’s the ultimate "trickle-up" scheme: take from the little guy and give it straight to the elites.

It’s an absolute disaster. I used to despise Ferrari; I actually used to cheer whenever they had a DNF. But today, sitting here in front of this tiny TV screen, I was honestly on the verge of tears because of the sheer stupidity of the FIA regarding Seba’s penalty.

This is just unbelievable. Seriously, go to hell.

Charlie would be turning in his grave right now.
