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.

Then your meme makes no sense.

It is obviously in the context of today's news. This is a community for dumb motorsports jokes. Dumb jokes don't need to make 100% sense every time.

I'm happy to see you make posts here that are more nuanced fun. Just because I happily skip nuances or outright ignore facts for which I think makes for a funny joke, doesn't mean that more nuanced posts aren't welcome here.

Andretti is quite likely to be similar to those old-time backmakers (no experience in chassis

Luckily GM/Cadillac is spearheading this since some time who have some experience in sportscar racing.

And if you take a look at reddit (yeah, I know I shouldn’t), there is a lot of people that are seriously proposing forcing one of the existing teams to sell to Andretti or even kicking them out of F1. So it wasn’t totally out of question that this meme was advocating for replacing one if the existing teams.

I did not make a reply on Reddit, I made a stand-alone joke here. I sometimes look there if something makes me chuckle so I can crosspost it here but I'm no longer active in discussions because of scumbag mods in /r/formuladank.
