  • Lots of declarative statements that make you feel good about your opinion, but very little in the way of facts.

    Are they the fittest athletes in the world? By what metric? Endurance? O2 uptake? Onset acceleration rates? Do you have a list of the fittest sports players on average?

    What you’re really saying is it feels like F1 drivers are the fittest athletes, so it feels like women would have a hard time with 6Gs.

    In reality Gymnasts regularly experience 6 Gs just performing on a set of uneven bars.



  • What even is this?

    In reality, we don’t know.

    Yes we do.

    That is very hard to study.

    It’s really not, we have stopwatches and cars already.

    But we know from other physically demanding competitions that men and women don’t compete together.

    This is motorsport newb, go watch golf.

    And F1 is very demanding.

    Yes, and several women, including Susie Wolf, have driven F1 cars just fine. There is currently a female racer in F3 and F2. There have been in F1 as well.

    There is nothing stopping women from racing in F1 except prejudice.

    They race in Indycar, The Le Mans Series, Super Formula, and dozens of other race series.



  • Some choice lyrics from “If you own the Washington Redskins you’re a cock” by Atom and His Package:

    And you’ll go “Wah wah wah, you’re so PC” And I will say “Wait” Remind me again how it came to be That being “the stupid American” is a desirable trait

    Wouldn’t it be offensive if we cheered: “Rah rah rah” for the Carolina Negroes With a beatbox cheer and big foam afros? Or if the Minnesota Vikings became the New York Kikes With dollar bills on their helmets cause that’s what they like You know?

    “Atom, what about the Saints, Angels, Padres too? Ain’t that the same thing for Christians that’s offending you?”

    When there’s a Jesus Christ mascot dog shooting crucifixes Nailed to a cross, dying to save the team You’ll be right, you’ll be right But until then You’re. Not. Right
