Hopefully not much... wouldn't happen to a better person. RBs socials trolled him today and its glorious.


I really don’t understand it. If you meet George in person, the guy is very down to earth and willing to sign autographs until his hands fall off.

Why do people hate him? He’s proven, built up from separation at Williams, beat Hamilton 2 years in a row at Mercedes. He’s definitely talented, tbd on Kimi ($$$ on Kalshi pre season), but come on man. Not into the whole primitive bullying thing just because he sounds and acts differently.

Hell, he didn’t even grow up wealthy by F1 standards…he just had great parents that highly educated him and gave him a good shot at F1.




Speaking of bullying, how about that Lance Stroll shite. Bury the guy in misery and embarrassment until even his father pulls the plug. frick window lickers.

Exactly, it’s still very early but it’s not getting any easier for him with this bad luck.

Lost in all of this is Max happened to find his way to the podium for the first time this year.

It's wild that it took this long. I can't believe that the car is that bad. I suspect he's just relatively checked out

It took both McLarens and a Merc DNF. Feels good for Ham and Ver to podium and all but it’s not on merit.

The things people complain about with him is funny.

He is too proper
He's too media ready
He looks funny

Nothing about his driving style or skill. Just complaining about his image.

Leclerc was next in line and he had a terrible weekend.

Are his parents around?

We know Ham’s parents. We know Norris’s, but I don’t think I ever remember seeing George’s.

I've seen his dad, not sure on the mom. He has said that he didn't want his dad as part of his career. Wanted them as parents.

I saw HAM talking about his mom wanting to come to races now. He seemed genuinely happy. Imagine during championship seasons your schedule and attitude aren't great to be around as a family.

Just googled them. Can’t say I remember seeing them ever. Which is fine, just somewhat of a departure from most of the rest of the field it seems.

My main reason is because his hair is too good. Bastards.

Not with F1 before they lost the rights this year. F1 used to be in the Top Headlines and one of the Top 3-5 stories the day after a race.


ESPN does this. If they don’t carry it on one of their networks, it won’t be a ‘news’ story.

They got WWE and all of a sudden Wrestlemania is leading Sports Center.

You’ll just need to go elsewhere for F1 coverage.

No fricking problem.

Have too many sources of F1 coverage as it is that actually care about the sport.

He told you how to fix it

You said you don’t want a solution even though the fix is simple

That’s them acting like Americans who like F1 are too stupid to find it. I checked ESPN from a UK vpn location anf F1 was third on the scroll, below Premier League final day of the season and the NBA playoffs.
