Idk who my riize bias is cause I'm trying to stay loyal to sungchan and shotaro but the other members
I feel a bit disgusted(?), infuriated(?) about how some people still complained about how China celebrated Zhou during Chinese GP and made a special spot for his car after the race?
First of all, the ceremony isn't that big that it overshadows the winner. The race still happens as it is. The crowd still hype the drivers and the winners/podium seaters. No spotlight was taken. It is still a normal GP and throughout the week, they didn't make it like a "ZHOU GUANYU GP"
Second of all, it is NOT about Zhou's achievement in F1. It is about how China WANTS to appreciate Zhou as the first Chinese citizen to make it into Formula One. It is not about him finishing P1 or P100. It is about him MAKING IT IN. "Oh but Zhou used sponsors to get in-" so did 102738373 drivers before him, in which some of them still stayed several seasons without scoring a point. Why is a "sponsor-backed" driver now only becoming a problem once it's Zhou? Stop acting like F1 is not a money motivated sport. Zhou can get whatever sponsor he wants but he also WORKED HARD and on behalf of his country, he made it in. Regardless of where he placed in the race, he fucking made it and that's whats matter.
The people in China and the young aspiring kids from China have their FULL RIGHTS to celebrate their home hero in their home race. You don't have to win 100 trophies to deserve appreciation. Zhou Guanyu may not be your hero. But he is someone's hero out there because he made it. Because he proved to those kids that SOMEONE from China can also be an F1 driver.
Lastly, if you think it's still weird for a country to do all that, i'm sorry that your country is so shit at respecting and appreciating its citizens' achievements.
The fact that nobody seems to care that Checo was a victim of workplace bullying
f1 fans before vs after brazilian gp weekend
Can I say something too?
Sergio being called a 'good servant for the team' is an insult (that and Helmut calling him a 'great helper') because we all know he didn't mean it as a compliment, he meant it as another dig, another way to show how little they think of him and I have no idea why anyone is saying that he should be grateful and go without a fight (David Coulthard I lost all the little respect I had for him after that words). The team wanted to destroy him and did so in a way and he should 'thank them for the years together'? Why? Would people be saying the same if someone said this shit about Max in 2028? Where are all the people who were outraged and called Daniel's treatment before he was fired atrocious?
The journalists calling him 'stubborn' and 'defiant' like it was an insult makes no sense because honestly, why should he just agree to all the things RBR did to him? He is not doing anything that any other driver wouldn't do in his situation and I don't understand why people expected anything different. Was he supposed to act like Daniel and just accept that the team used him and wanted him out with no deserved pay off? He has the right to defend himself as anyone would have in his place. Are people mad because he isn't a brainwashed machine blindly believing everything Helmut says? Is the problem only about him not agreeing with the team politics and knowing what he's worth?
Also Nico saying that 'he wants his money back' like it was something bad. It's not, he brought millions to the team in merch sales alone not to mention the sponsors and partnership with Ford HE HELPED SEAL. He gave his all to the team as he said and he has the right to demand something back. RBR isn't a poor victim here, they are the villains trying to change the narrative and paint Check as the greedy ungrateful guy who wants to leave them with nothing. And that's just a lie.
Also also, people ignoring Max who said multiple times that he likes working with Sergio and that he wants him as his teammate and that he is a great driver just to say that they hate each other and Max would be glad with someone else and all this positivity is just a PR play (at the same time praising how he always says what he thinks and doesn't hold back in the media - quite ironic, no?).
Ehhhh
Preach! FUCKING PREACH!
They expect Checo to take all the punches as if they weren't HARASSING him left and right.
Like, what? Do you really think someone who sued Pemex -THE oil and gas company for the entirety of Mexico and won - would not know how to defend himself? The man who saved a bunch of employees from getting fired?
Let's never forget how he has POWERFUL people behind him. Literally. And it all falls to CH and HM foaming at the mouth for not accomplishing their dirty work. Checo is a very smart man when it concerns his contracts.
Shit, can we even talk about how they IGNORED Checo about the car? Did they expect a box of donuts and a thank you card in return for all the hell they put him through? Checo was spat on the face with that. And they STILL demand respect? Nah. Checo doesn't owe Red Bull anything. Red Bull owes Checo for putting them on a high pedestal.
I'm super fucking glad Checo is going for war. That only HE can decide what his next move is. Clearly something that CH and HM aren't used to. And that is hilarious!
rip funny gen z short king pair you will not be forgotten in this household…
fuck red bull
In the build up towards season 7 of Drive to Survive coming out please remember the poor Red Bull employee who was sexually harassed by Christian Horner, lost her job, was doxxed, and still hasn’t got justice for what happened to her. From what we see in the trailer it seems like Netflix is just going to let Horner say what he wants and continue doing fluff shots with him and Geri like nothing has happened. Wherever the victim is, I hope she’s healthy and doing ok.
Max going into a season without Checo and realizing he’s going to be stuck with a whiny kid who makes the cars movie and acting like ken his whole personality
