Where your favorite blogs come alive
As someone who started as a football fan, I will never understand the hatred people have for drivers of the same team. On ft, we clown on our shit players but still want the team to do well, but then I see f1twt and people are praying on Sainz/Leclerc being fired (haha) and getting kicked out of the sport. Some of you really need to calm down.
Like you’re 25, and acting considerably more immature than you claim Lando Norris to be. Get a job, get a life, and stop posting religiously on your driver hate accounts, it’s a really bad look for the sport and the passionate fans out there. Some of you clowns have 100k+ posts. It’s embarrassing.
I’ve always thought that strictly supporting one driver and slandering the others was immature, the goal should always for the team to do well AND the drivers. Wishing a DNF or a terrible performance on drivers every race day is pathetic behavior. They’re still teammates racing for the same team. The priority is the team overall, not statpadding to appease their ego.
And Jesus Christ learn how the sport works. You don’t have to be a professional analyst, but do not let your biases cloud your judgement, letting you blame everything on your favorite driver’s teammate. Just because your favorite driver is the hottest does not mean you can objectify them and infantilize them. They are grown adults who could not care less about your existence.
These drivers will say controversial things, and they will get angry. They are still humans, it’s natural. They’ll curse out other drivers because emotions are high when they’re racing at 300 kpm, wanting wins. They’re not going to stop and be like, “Now how can I express my emotions in a way that won’t upset anyone?”. They’re going to say things in the heat of the moment, and with their emotions reaching a boiling point, they’ll get angry. And that. Is. Okay.
Sometimes they’ll be in the wrong, and they won’t admit it. Or it’s the other way. Sometimes they’ll right, and their teammates won’t admit it. They’ll blame things on each other, and it’s fine to be angry, just don’t be an embarrassing about it. Your favorite drivers aren’t perfect, and shit happens. It’s not always this faults.
Drivers lives don’t entirely revolve around the sport, and neither should yours.
