I found him more.likanle than either kvyat or stroll

He is far more likable than kvyat or stroll or 90% of the other drivers on the grid, I wouldnt argue against that. But I'd rather have my hate figures be good drivers too so that theres more pantomime drama in this dead fraudulent sport

What does that have to do with Brexit? None of stroll, kvyat or hartley are british.

In hilarious sponsor news, McLaren have added a swedish chocolate brand to their collection of idiots who are prepared to give them money for zero exposure. Id tell you their name but it wasn't worth committing to memory. But better still, Red Bull are now sponsored by a cryptocurrency and i cannot fault them for brand alignment there because the similarities between the two are striking

Id tell you their name but it wasn't worth committing to memory. It's called Huski and the announcement said they're gonna be on the rear wing, which means they're paying an idiotic amount of money.

Lmao there's not a single salient point in that story that can't be airquoted to make it more accurate. "died" "unexpectedly" while "travelling in India" to "set up an orphanage" E: "investors"

Racing Point should use the Brabham name.

I'd say Manor Marussia is about as bad a name.

Toro Rosso remains an extremely dumb figleaf covering Red Bull cheating by having two teams. Virgin is just a weird brand in general. Are we counting BMW Sauber Ferrari? Because that was very silly.

All of those names were bad but they don't have the same problem as Racing Point, which is that it's meaningless and doesn't even make sense in English
|
# ? Feb 5, 2019 17:32 |

It was my understanding that Racing Point is still a placeholder until they announce a title sponsor, so it's meaningless by design, but I guess time is running out for that and they'll just plaster the car with daddy Stroll's businesses.

I wonder if anyone's going to pick up BWT and their lovely pink

It’s interesting they wanted to use the Lola name. Lola has been successful in many other categories but they were never great in F1. Their last two projects were a disaster.
