It really is tragic how Toto has failed Lewis this year.
I think it's actually the entire nation of Germany who failed Our Sir Lewis. First they build Nordstream and now this? They may be a lovely polite people with a peaceful history but they have a lot to atone for this year.

Also, I heard that a car company from the same great country as the great Ducati Motor Holding S.p.A. did well in a car race quali today. Congrats to whoever that was!

Also yes it is a totally dominant chad move for Sir Lewis to have a dick piercing and to tell us all about it. He's epic.

Also I have a theorem to postulate herein. I have formulated this after viewing many unjustified critical posts about Our Dan. I propose that it is not moral to cheer for or badmouth a driver based on their driving performance. Sir Lewis was and is the most righteous driver because of his fashion sense and dedication to righteous causes and his achievement of ending racism (as opposed to the sport of F1 which merely seconded it) and climate change. Dan is a very good driver because he's cute and funny. Max is the worst driver because of his infamous historic behavior on and off track. The fact of Max's WDC -- its legitimacy aside -- does not make him a good driver, just as his lack of WDC prior did not make him a bad driver. To believe a driver is good based on their driving performance is to subscribe to the long discredited Victorian world view of Social Darwinism, survival of the fittest. This is a crime of sports fandom, it is wrong. Might does not make right, but having a dick piercing does.

Horner is a despicably, horrible, attention seeking rear end in a top hat. I like Max and support him becuase I saw his talent when he came into the sport, and very much like Rosberg I saw there could be a world champion here and enjoyed his progression through the sport. Its good and cool to support new exceptional talents because having the same WCC and WDC year in and year out is loving BORING

However I do not like Redbull and I always view Newey as the F1 Judas. He lost my respect when he decided to gush his autistic air flow obsessions upon the Red Bull technicians, speaking about aero and air distibrutions to the camera with an almost manic, schizophrenic euphoria often with spittle spraying the air didnt quite seem as genius while wearing a RedBull shirt.

TLDR stuff.

Yeah we got a 4 pack of special edition beer with a picture of Frank (famous teetotaler) on the label.

I could manage with the screen, but the audio quality was like everyone was underwater. Also they overheated and crashed daily.

I hate the trend of the past 10 years where every company just offers “solutions”. I see it every day at my job, and every time again I have to dig into the weeds for 30 minutes until I figure out what they’re exactly selling and how I should value them.
