It will forever be hilarious to me the thread response when Alonso retires for pushing his car too hard vs Verstappen retiring for doing the same thing.

It's not really the same because if Max didn't push his car too hard he could still get top 5 finishes easily, whereas if Alonso was nicer to his car he's out of the points so he may as well push.

Max Verstappen is a superstar and he just turned 20. People are just jealous of his success at such a young age where his life is going to be nothing but millions of dollars, traveling the world, enjoying the greatest and best of humanity, racing fast cars for the rest of his life jesus christ i'm going to pull the loving trigger right now what have i done with my life it isn't fair and Max is gonna win championships for sure god loving drat it I could be him right now if my parents knew anything about motorsport and weren't just immigrants god loving dammit Verstappen is absolutely a star of the future.

Enough with the Max hate.

I do think Kartoffel Vanphwoarn deserves some praise of his own though, he's doing a lot with that car under difficult circumstances. I wish McLaren all the best when they get better engines. It would be ironic if Honda picked next year to figure their poo poo out, obviously, but I have my doubts we'll be hearing the praises of Genuine Good Garçon Gran Pierre "Give It The" Gas-ly before the next rules refresh.

Why are people referring to someone who:
a) is Belgian
b) has a name that sounds like "offal"
in a fashion that does not celebrate such achievements.

Waffles is a future star. Kartoffel is a fucken fraud.

Verstappen will still be racing in 2030 with four or five WDC under his belt.
