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.

Also this driver is fairly known for his “the other driver has to back off or we crash” moves and never gets any penalty for it.

Then all other drivers should drive exactly the same way and then contest a penalty like Aston Martin did when a jack touched a car and AMR seemed to have all necessary evidence at hand at light speed.

To be faaaaair, Max knows how to do those moves just on the edge. Not sure if the others could pull it off.

Rather than other people drive so dangerously, I'd like to see more Hamiltons that don't back out of such situations anymore. Unstoppable force, meet unmovable object. And if they do crash, oh well, that makes for an interesting race and maybe eventually Max would get the message.

But as long as everyone else just drives in circles for points because they don't have a winning car anyway, and thus don't race anyone in a better car and just let the top dog(s) do whatever they want, it is what it is.
