Hi, I started watching f2 this year and I had question if you can answer: why do some of Franco's fans hate on drivers like Paul?
hmmmm im not sure if im the right person to ask, but i think it's because fans from certain countries (such as argentina) are very very passionate about their drivers? so when they have a driver such as franco who's doing well and driving in f2, they're extremely supportive when he does well, but they also get quite protective when things go wrong. if you check out the f2 ig comment section of posts where franco has scored points, there will be tons of argentinian comments cheering him on, which is lovely and im sure franco is very thankful for their support!! but then in cases such as when paul was upset about franco's overtake during the last lap of imola, they get defensive instead 🤷♀️
#important to note though that not all of his fans are like this !!!! not even close#i know several really sweet fans of him#i think its just because it's a different culture sometimes? around the drivers?#like idk if i should compare it to sweden but it's one of the few places i know how it works in and#here we aren't super nationalistic ?? ig we have a couple of sports where we all watch the national team#like soccer and hockey get most people interested... and pole vault because we have the dude who's the best in the world by faaaar#but if we lose it's kinda “🤷♀️ welp”#when the swedish soccer team took bronze in the world cup 1994 there was a big big crowd though...#but like other than that we don't care a lot#even tho we have 3 drivers in indycar and one in f3 (and two in f4) ppl don't rlly know about motorsports here#but in argentina i heard that franco is really popular !!#and when you have more fans in total then there's def gonna be more bad fans also (even if the percentage is low)#does that make any sense? lmk if u want me to explain more properly#anyways i really do like franco :) so pls don't hate on him bcs of *some* fans#asks!#anon!
