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.

You actually think Stroll is any good? After so many years, and now in a competitive car he's still not achieved anything.

Not the greatest or anything, but people have always been putting him at the very end just in front of the likes of Latifi. Which is stupid.

spoilerThis year is the first year where I also think he should move on after all those years, because everyone else has stepped up more. But then people somehow love KMag or Bottas to stick around forever.

People can struggle in good cars too, look at Checo these last few races.

Some feats we've seen Stroll do, nice overtakes, great starts, getting a good result in a new car with broken hands, would be celebrated with any other driver. See how Tsunoda gets all the praise for being around 10th place in a shitbox? That was exactly Stroll's position last year.

He's one of the underappreciated drivers together with the likes of Gasly, Zhou and Sainz.
