With your "no hate on here" rule (valid), I genuinely forget you, as any other fan of the sport, also don't like certain drivers privately
Yeah, we don't do hate here. Critique based on facts and actual statements is something we do here. If you have sent in an ask about a driver or situations and I didn't answer it's probably because the language you used was too harsh.
Privately yes I dislike some drivers. I don't feel the need to post about it because it's not something I want to spend my time doing, and I don't think it adds anything productive to the fandom. And that goes for asks as well, if an ask has language I think will just invite more arguing and hate I wont post it. Fine to send them, but don't be shocked if I don't answer.
Big tip is that you get out of fandom what you put in. I don't like when the drivers I like are hated on for really petty and stupid reasons. I don't like when words get twisted around and facts are cherry picked. So I don't post the same about others. I would much rather make memes and study data and celebrate the drivers I do like.
I like to critique because yes drivers mess up on track and sometimes their actions bare criticism. But I find often things are not as big of a deal as fan-bases make them out to be.
People send me things asking if I saw X's statement about Charles. And yes I saw it, it doesn't really bother or hurt me if someone in the media is saying stupid stuff about Charles, or another driver is saying shit about him. I know they are wrong.
#like people were clutching their pearls over Fernando ferrari statements#I just laughed#the old man can ramble#I am not deeply wounded by petty bickering between drivers#same with the Max statements about Charles in free practice#that wasn't even like shade#but people read way too much into it#insane#everything that's said doesn't need to have staunch defense#just sit back and enjoy the show#Also most importantly I save my energy for the real enemy: Mclaren
