It’s safe to say F1 is obsessed with growing its audience. I mean a lot of celebrity guests, k-pop idols, endless marketing campaigns, collaborations, more sprints because apparently practice sessions don’t bring in a huge audience. They’re doing anything to get more people watching and paying for subscriptions and you clearly see they've gone much harder this year.
Yet I keep seeing fans from all over the fd saying how miserable this season has been. Nah this isn’t just about 63s and gr63 himself. Atp I’m not even blaming teletubbies from merc but F1 and the FIA. Because the way they’ve been building this narrative around #him goes way beyond just one team. It stopped being about the sport but the narrative
Idk maybe it’s time to collectively cancel our F1TV and let it go until 2027 if 2027 is even worth coming back for lol 😂
I’ve seen sooo many sides of George this season through all his ups and downs but I’ve never seen him like this. Not even ONCE in his F1 career I’d say
Next week George could lose both his last mathematical chance at the title and his P2 in the drivers’ standings
After Austin GP:
George — 242
Lewis — 241
Max — 236
Charles — 233
Just 9 points between them
To keep the very last straw of title hope, George needs to win in Mexico with Kimi finishing P10 or lower. Meanwhile by finishing even P5 he risks to lose 3 positions if Charles wins, Max finishes P2 and Lewis P3. Then George drops straight to P5.
imagine going into a race still mathematically fighting for the title and coming out of it fifth in the championship. I have no words
THE GUY WHO GAVE GEORGE THIS PENALTY ALSO ALWAYS IGNORES ANTONELLI'S TRACK LIMITS!! can we cancel him pleaseeeeee. his name is steward i think? thats his surname if i remember correctly
« Je pense que j’ai perdu beaucoup de points lors des cinq dernières courses, et je crois que cela vient vraiment des réglages. Pourtant, j’ai le sentiment de bien piloter… » 😞
Lewis Hamilton était déçu après la course.

What a fckng joke. George gets punished on the opening lap for supposedly gaining an advantage he never gained and the stewards manage to frame a 5-second penalty as an act of mercy because they could’ve given him 10. Meanwhile Bortoleto gets absolutely nothing for the same incident on the same lap 1
Moreover they literally brought the championship trophy to Austin and Domenicali and Ben Sulayem look like they were ready to crown kimi right there and then. Yet George still managed to finish above P9. Oh that must’ve been disappointing lmao
But yeah keep telling me there’s no agenda and the entire Kimi narrative is completely organic
