Formula 1 - F1 - Current Season Discussion

Is there an organization anywhere in sports that is so self-reverential, entitled and obsessed with playing the victim? Michigan football is the only one that I can think of.

Self-reverential, yes. But, I just don't see anywhere near the level of whining and victimhood chasing that I do with RB. Ferrari is more like the Yankees to me, a dynastic machine that it's easy to hate but one can still kind of respect.

They also never championships anymore just like the Yankees!

Dude, there was a not insignificant period where the FIA was shorthand for Ferrari International Assistance. Plus, they are Italian. Whining is in their DNA.

Now Verstappen is asserting that he has “the wrong passport” to receive fair treatment from the sport and the press. He also said that he has three championships and he knows what he’s doing. My guy is delusional. First, he has two championships, and he was essentially unchallenged for those two. He was allowed to drive like a complete d!ckhead in 2021, and he has already driven into Norris twice this season. You can’t even get the British F1 press (not the idiotic tabloids) to say that he’s a menace!

Poor Max. I guess that's what happens when one grows up the way he did. He learns that the way to get what he wants is to treat everyone else like ****. And if he can't get what he wants, it's everyone else's fault. Classic narcissist.

Tbf, if he didn't win, his dad would've beat the sh1t out of him
