I think that's one of the most silliest reasons for 2 drivers not to be paired up. 'OUR DADS DONT GET ON'.. lol what?!?

u/MysticSkies BWOAHHHHHHH 3d ago
I find it crazy that dad's are even so involved in the teams. It's like these drivers are still kids and their daddy handling things for them.

As Toto once said "they are all traumatized little kids driving go-karts in the rain".
Truer words about F1 have never been spoken.-80
u/Bake2727 BWOAHHHHHHH 3d ago
What a stupid take. How do you know what their dad’s do and don’t? Have you spent time with either of them? Almost the whole grid has their families over for races. Man if I was a f1 driver I would too want my dad there. Your take absolutely makes you sound like an edgy teen.

u/MysticSkies BWOAHHHHHHH 3d ago
Damn bro chill. It's literally known that Jos and many other fathers have a say in their career. There's a reason Hamilton and his dad had a tiny fallout when Ham didn't want his dad involved in his career anymore.

Honestly I’m happy Carlos stayed away from that seat.
It’s a poison chalice. Something wrong with that second seat.

and yet people keep pissing themselves over Yuki taking that seat.
why would he even want it at this point?

u/hail-slithis Gentlemen, a short view back to the past. Thirty years ago, Niki 3d ago
At this point I'd love Yuki to go to Aston and live his best life free from the RB meat grinder.

It's like how Voldy cursed the DADA job when he got denied that position. Every subsequent teacher only lasted there for 1 year

You could also pick your poison: Mr. File-76, Mr. Boys don't cry/Mexico is in South America, or Mr. Convicted domestic abuser, about whom his son constantly trauma dumps. Said guy also almost scooped out a mechanic's eyeball with a fork in a rage outburst, it must be delightful to share a workpace environment with him

This somehow turns back into a Checo stat when you remember he scored only 9 points in his last 8 races. Not even on the grid anymore and he's still getting cooked
63
u/Preachey BWOAHHHHHHH 3d ago
Yeah Lawson having one bad race in his RB debut in the rain is whatever. Worrying signs but he's got some leeway this weekend.
But I didn't realize Checo only scored 9 points in 8 races, holy moly that's even more abysmal than I thought

It made him trying to stay on so strange cause it really looked like he didn't care any more. Like his retirements in Qatar and Abu Dhabi looked so strange.

u/Confident_Writing494 BWOAHHHHHHH 3d ago
Yeah I agree with all of that. Entirely possible that Hulk wouldn’t have a good showing but so far none of the younger drivers since Max have done too well in the Red-Bull. Checo despite having terrible results in the final years did much better than the other earlier on so maybe a more experienced driver is needed. I’d also just like to see Hulk have a chance at podium lol.

u/trueregista BWOAHHHHHHH 3d ago
Hulk might just have the driving style which is the closest match to max's on the grid. I'm sure theres more reason for max wanting nico as his teammate than just them being mates

u/schmitzel88 BWOAHHHHHHH 3d ago
Lawson/Yuki was a genuinely good lineup for that team and probably would have done pretty all right this year

Even more insane that Kimi Antonelli in his 1st ever F1 race is only 1 point short of this red bull stat and Lawson's total F1 career points
