Just curious. I started watching F1 back when DTS started airing (so during Hamilton’s domination). It was fun, even though results were often predictable (HAM-BOT-VER).
Then there was this awesome season when Max got his 1st WDC title. It was the most fun I ever had with any sport ever.
But now? I still watch races, but, I won’t lie, it’s getting less and less exciting. I noticed that F1 is no longer a huge talking-point in my friend’s group, as there is just less going on. Max has so huuuge advantage, that it feels like all that sport magic is gone.
What are your thoughts on this? Are you still watching races every rawe ceek? Do you still feel engaged in F1 community?
The wife and I watch almost every race. I don’t mind Red Bull dominating at the moment since they’re my favorite team to rag on but it’s undeniable they have a great car.
I’m basically a fan of everyone on the grid except Max since I find him and his dad to be annoying. Karen Horner is also pretty funny 😂
Yes, his dad’s a piece of shit, and sometimes I feel like Max lets the mask slip. He’s very jokey-jokey when things go well, but I remember his shitty attacking, post-race petulance and running people off the track when he didn’t quite have a winning car.
He can afford to have great wheel-to-wheel racing skills now that he’s got the thick end of one second in his pocket over the other cars and his teammate is pottering around in P10.
