  • I think Nando is primarily talking about the crowd that drive to survive pulled in over the past few years. Most of them don’t seem to dig as deep into what makes F1 tik as the older fans. I think a lot of them don’t really try to understand the technical side of F1, and that’s ok, but there is definitely a shift in how drivers and their accomplishments are perceived.

    My experience is that the metal culture is PARTICULARLY friendly in the pit. Everyone typically looks out for each other, and people who mosh too violently are usually pulled out of the pit. Also: with metal becoming more and more popular over the last two decades, Ifeel like the ratio of assholes in the community has grown.



  • Tbh I wouldn’t change a thing, I had a tonne of fun yesterday. Once you’ve watched F1 for a while and understand what’s going on in the background, even just watching the timing screens can be exciting. Watching the gap between Piastri and Russel, for most of the race you couldn’t tell of it would open up to a full pit stop, at which point Piastri would probably have pitted, triggering a Pit stop for both Ferraris and Norris aswell. I get that more casual viewers need more on track action, and I probably wouldn’t like if the whole season was like that, but for one race a year I think it’s great.
