With stealing… I meant taking away the racing from racing. Stealing our sport.

Charles: It’s a fucking joke!

Lando: It hurts your soul when you see your speed dropping so much. Artificial racing.

There’s a categorical difference between strategic resource management across a stint or race, and tactical energy management multiple times per lap where the car actively takes power away from the driver mid-straight.

Racing is stolen, when legendary corners do not take full commitment.

Energy management dressed up as racing.

With manipulated telemetry and manipulated broadcasting to hide the truth.

And blatant marketing lies to bluff through it.

A little patch on a big problem. Now let’s pretend all is fine…

Damage control, pretending to fix things, while putting a little patch on an open wound.

Sure. Do not change the rules that make me win.

For sure! But for sake of racing let’s also recognize that it is (at least) a warning sign if true racers like Max leave.

The new rules hurt the sport. Drivers leaving hurt the sport even more. There is an existential problem when racing is removed from F1.

Who needs Max? We all do.

So that is not the F1 where drivers ánd team principals have voted Max as #1 driver for more than five years in a row.

Which one is it then?

Which F1 have you been watching?

F1 better ask themselves how to survive themselves, after replacing racing with battery scrutiny.

Max leaving is merely a symptom.

Really? This is what Seneca would have thought?

That indeed feels like.. very far away.

Which rule did Masi break?

Meltdown at RB

Are these posts all you have to say?

Perhaps respect your true fans a bit more and focus on bringing back racing to F1. As long as adrenaline is replaced by battery nursing, we have a problem.

I am certain Oscar would rather see you not having time for his birthday while busy fixing things.

Please just focus on fixing F1’s existential problems. Bring racing back and dump the battery saving nonsense…

F1 has an existential problem with these new rules. This has nothing to do with racing.

To quote an expert: This is a joke.

Many fans have similar thoughts. What are we looking at? Duracell games.

F1 has transitioned from racing purism into a meaningless battery management show.

False.

Payback. Play games, get played.

Finally! Well done. This car suits him. Nice to see the old fox’s racecraft.

Define technical objection.

If your barber uses a perfectly designed bazooka to do your neckline, do you have technical objections?

Where are the people who found it so utterly important that Biden does not say incoherent things?

Please rename to “Power Saving Rankings”.

Bearman is right. It is a shame.

This is not what F1 is supposed to be: driver and machine on the absolute limit.

Reducing speed to save battery…

And overtakes like Mario karts circling around each other, where electricity determines who’s faster.

F1 should be a driver and a machine on the absolute limit. Not battery saving and boost buttons.

My prediction is that this season will be very boring very soon. Because adrenaline made way for electricity management. Drivers will figure out where to save very soon, and will all do the same thing.

Amen!

Yeah! Let’s see who the best battery saver is… so exciting 😂😂😂

8 year old what? Jellyfish? Broccoli?
