Thoughts on posting spoilers? (self.formula1)

I don’t see any rules or guidelines for posting in the side bar, so was curious how we feel about posts with qualifying and race results? The f1 sub always posts a graphic with the top 3 as well as the classification, while the other f1 community here on Lemmy has a rule against posting any spoilers. Personally I always liked seeing the results and reading the discussions about them on the subreddit, but curious to see others opinions.

I don't watch either qualifying or the race live, more often on a several hour delay. So I absolutely hate those posts that have the results as a picture because it's all too easy to accidentally see the results while scrolling through a feed.

I would much prefer that the post title be something like "British GP Race Results" and then the results in the first comment, not the body of the opening post, that way I can scroll through my feed and not accidentally see the results while leaving people who know the results to discuss the subject.

Anyway, that's my 2 pence worth!
