I am not really one to hate on teams or drivers for no reason, as I hold massive respect for each and every one of them. I love the sport, so I feel like having some hatred for a part of it is not really useful. But I have to say, from the baviour of Toto, to comments of Hamilton and on track behaviour of Russell, they have become very annoying in my eyes and seeing them lose has become more fun to watch than seeing them win. That’s obviously just my subjective view of things, but I just feel like them being on top for 6 years and being in the sport for a pretty long time, they would understand that domination is not easy. Instead, they act like sore losers, dismissing their competitors, shitting on the car (and in the same way, the engineers), and overall being extremely unlikeable. I am not even tifosi, but after shit Toto has said during Las Vegas, I am holding my hopes up that ferrari cleans the floor with them in Abu Dhabi and gets that p2.

I can’t exactly provide sources of the articles, but I do remember Toto and Hamilton downplaying the achievements of Redbull and Max. Saying stuff like “Max never had a good teammate” or “records don’t mean anything in formula 1”. These are not exact quotes, mind you, I am paraphrasing.

Russell has been turning into many drivers in the corners for a good while now. He is a fast driver, but imo drives like a dickhead

Also his arrogant comment of “everybody has a target on their back”. So narcissistic.

His aggressive response during the Vegas interview completely obtuse against the many mistakes of Vegas planing and ass kissing boot licker defense of liberty media.

His discussion with Christian crying about proposing.

“This car is undrivable lewis”… is a huge fuck you to all those “people back at the factory” …

Overall he has come across many times as pathetic, incompetent, mouth breathing, window licking , spaztic , bastard, twat , arsehole, wanker tosser, dick head, nob head, failed abortion, streak of piss, disgrace to the family name, inbred stuckup, poncy, nancy, chintzy, pillow biting, west ham united supporting c*NT! …but maybe I an thinking of Lance stroll…
