I've been a McLaren fan for a long, long time.

I understand what you're saying and I respect that point of view.

Having said that.

You shut your mouth and let them have this. If it's McLaren dominance into the new engine regs you all just need to hitch to the nearest Lando or Oscar bandwagon and hold the fuck on.

I'm smoking weed about it.

It's simple, really. When Hamilton was dominant, everyone wanted Verstappen to go get him. Now that the paradigm has shifted, we look at Lando hoping Max's reign is over. After that, we will look at some new guy who has to dethrone Lando.

Lando can only hope to win a couple world titles before this next one comes along.

Oh and Lando vs Oscar can turn into a real Hamilton Rosberg situation so I'm looking forward to that. I have yet to see Oscar phased about anything yet though.

Oscar is the better driver, he just lacks a bit of experience. That will even out. Then he'll beat Norris on a regular basis.

I've been a huge fan of Oscar since he joined Prema in F3. His racecraft and overall personality make him the type of driver that can take it really far.

It's something I also thought I'd see in Dennis Hauger, sadly his F2 run has been disappointing compared to Oscar's.

I hope you're right but Lando is not over his peak. I just hope he drops this sad sack attitude of undervalueing his performance. I understand he still has a lot to win but the way he talks, the way he looks so unhappy, this will be his undoing if he keeps it up.

So no. Fuck McLaren.

The whole sport is a human rights nightmare, yes. F1 is not beneficial to the world or its inhabitants, I'm well aware.

I'm not about to use a meme community for grandstanding about it, but you do you.

McLaren specifically even more so.

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.
