Here's hoping next year will be a bit of a battle

Yeah, that AD21 one does put an extra shine on his championship streak, well done you for highlighting that.
I almost forgot but thank heavens we can count on people not forgetting that glorious, beautiful and incredibly justified moment! Thanks!

I wouldn't keep mentioning it if it wasn't so ridiculous

[–] reddwarf@feddit.nl -1 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

You keep mentioning it because you cannot let it go, you are triggered by certain events, like M4x winning his fourth WC. It causes you to remember a negative instead of appreciating the season and the WC win.

Pretty sad but I can understand it in a way.

You're right. I can't let it go. it was a massive injustice and ruined the best season in years

And this is why F1 bores me. There's largely 1 person that wins every race for 5-8 years at a time, then someone else steps up to win so many races it's not worth watching.

If I know who's going to win at the start of the race, then that person jumps into the lead and stays there the whole time, things need to change.

My man did you watch what was going on this season?

[–] PunchingWood@lemmy.world 4 points 2 hours ago

Probably only watched Monaco, Vegas and Singapore or something.

Some races someone builds a giant lead, or barely any overtakes happen. But overall this season has been a good one.

[–] Coreidan@lemmy.world 8 points 6 hours ago

This is an attitude from someone that cares nothing at all about the details of the race or the season other than “who won”.

There’s an enormous amount of other stuff going on across the field that is interesting that you’re straight up ignoring and don’t know a single thing about.

Just admit that you don’t like F1 regardless of who is winning.

What other motor sports do you watch? My guess is zero.

[–] reddwarf@feddit.nl 4 points 6 hours ago

My advice is to stop watching it then. Nothing wrong with that, this is just not your type of sport.
