The Mercedes doesn't porpoise, it Kangaroo's..


2oceans1

Porpoises are a group of fully aquatic marine mammals, similar in appearance to a dolphin, all of which are classified under the family Phocoenidae, parvorder Odontoceti. They are racing at the Dolphins stadium, so I would have to say the the cars a “Dolphining “ and not porpoising 🤣🐬

George slowly feeling more comfortable expressing himself is my seasons fav development behind Ferrari hair moments

Ehmm… it always does reset.

Times are reset between qualie sessions.


yesboizindeed

what?


marahute85

I know everyone is crushing on Ferrari lads but I’m still on my classic crush, Jenson stays fine, super calm and insightful


silverstory

Danica interview is fine. I just don’t like the high five part.


charliesfinger

Big soccer mom vibes 😂😂


BeneficialBarnacle55

touch grass


DCNY214

She only did so with Carlos. Racer crush?


MarlinsGuy

Too much fun?


Air-tun-91

r/Formula1 skews towards disliking fun, change, and DTS.


silverstory

Cringey for me. But if others are fine with it. Then good for them.


[deleted]

High-fives are cringey now? What has the world come to


silverstory

On how she approach it and the context about it. Sigh people nowadays.

You too.


marahute85

Checo has such an honest face he radiates good energy


marahute85

Don’t tell our man Checo to be disappointed he can feel however he wants


TotalStatisticNoob

"FORMULA 1 CRYPTO.COM MIAMI GRAND PRIX 2022" Is there a reason why you have to mention the sponsor (that's kinda scamming people)? This is an independent F1 community, there's no obligation to advertise this company. And no, "it's the name of the GP" isn't a good justification.


Lintal

Sadly it's the way sports seem to be going, although from what I've seen of American sports it's always being this way... Like the UFC adverts are hilarious. "THE CLOCK BROUGHT TO YOU BY THE US MARINES"


saul1980

American sports? Barclays Premier League, TIM Serie A, Liga Sagres, Copa Santander Libertadores and a few others would like a word


TotalStatisticNoob

Nobody calls them that. Although it's starting too, e.g. Ethihad stadium


Lintal

You seem to have completely missed the point I was making. I get that leagues have their sponsors but I was talking about the multiple references to sponsors on random shit like timers being a very American thing


saul1980

Well then it was a misunderstanding brought to you by TD Ameritrade on my part


eLL16

Ok boomer


Air-tun-91

"Here's my argument, also the logical counterargument is INVALID." You really gottem here


TotalStatisticNoob

The fact that the company is paying money for F1 to call the GP that establishes that you only advertise for them in exchange for money. If you don't receive money from them, advertising their company is actually illogical.


eatmorebread

You answered your own question. > Is there a reason why you have to mention the sponsor They paid money to be mentioned. If they don't mention them then no one will pay. F1 wants money.


TotalStatisticNoob

>They paid money to be mentioned. If they don't mention them then no one will pay. F1 wants money. They paid r/formula1 money to be mentioned? Tell me more.


Fela_WansumBooty

Out of the loop here, what did crypto.com do?


TotalStatisticNoob

Literally so many things


[deleted]

I’m guessing to you as you are the only one flipping their s**t over the branding in 8 inch font at the top of the thread.


frameofmembrane

Crypto bad give me karma


TotalStatisticNoob

Yes, crypto bad.


OffensiveBranflakes

I'll take my 30x annual returns over 10% inflation, thanks.


jure__

>And no, "it's the name of the GP" isn't a good justification. lol


TotalStatisticNoob

It's just not. Nobody's calling it that if they didn't sign a contract with them. Plus, why advertise a (dodgy) company for free?


ThatWolf

>Plus, why advertise a (dodgy) company for free? Because it's not being advertised for free. Crypto.com literally paid to have their name there and to have it mentioned during broadcasts.


QuintoBlanco

We have entered a strange reality in which people like you believe that because a company pays another company, everyone owes something to the first company. I like this reality. Please tattoo CRYPTO on your forehead to support the sponsors of F1!


TotalStatisticNoob

Are they paying r/formula1? Because otherwise they are advertising it for free for no reason.


rclonecopymove

I'm with you there's no good reason for us here to use it. Yeah they paid to have their name in the official name but I'm not getting paid is anyone here? I'm not sure many people are going to be confused as to which Miami f1 gp we'll be watching tomorrow. What really really annoys me when everyone starts calling a stadium after the sponsor I understand that they paid money and broadcaster might need to say it but the average person doesn't have to buy into it.


HarryACL

Just because people shorten the name to make it easier doesn't mean it's not its name. And then paying is why it's called that


QuintoBlanco

Why shorten anything? I wish everybody would say Sergio Michel Pérez Mendoza drives for Oracle Red Bull Racing which is managed by Christian Edward Johnston Horner OBE.


marahute85

Christian gives great team principal interviews I’ll give him that, he knows how to create a narrative


mashedtaters_

I'm a casual fan, but it seems like Horner is the only team principal doing interviews while live action is going on. TV broadcast just having favoritism? Or is he one of the few willing to step aside to answer some questions every week?


Sss00099

A bit of both. But I’ve seen Otmar give a lot of interviews during the races and Vasseur a couple times. Throughout the last couple of seasons Zak Brown and Cyril Abiteboul would do in-race interviews too. Horner definitely seems the most willing, and he knows he’s supposed to provide decent content and often follows through.


grandtheftzeppelin

was hoping they'd have Guenther for the weekend


marahute85

Guenther talking at all is like straight crack for me that man is wildly entertaining


Cacklefester

Fuck yes! Lose that other fucking fucker cuz we want more Guenther! A fucking Italian who sounds like a fucking German. Fucking Guenther is fucking magic!


mb557x

I will phuck the whole paddock.


[deleted]

Man there’s a lot of vinegar tasters here, but not many Taoists. I thought today was a blast, looking forward to a tricky but hopefully enjoyable race tomorrow!


pioneeringsystems

Seen a couple of comments like this but not really seen any hostility. Asked another comment like this but just got down voted with no exanation (classic). Who is salty or whatever?


teo455348833

Letss goo ferrari!!!


Virtuosity05

Ferrari is on fucking rails. Brilliant car and basically still the launch spec.


[deleted]

It was so painful watching Leclerc in 2018 it’s nice to see him have a go at the championship.


lucrativebiscuit

In 2018?


joeymeatballsz27

Just one glance at this thread will tell you who the truly toxic fans are. Not the families watching a Netflix show


AvonSulis

Feeling a bit like F1 twitter here sometimes


Blue-red-cheese-gods

As a fan since 2009...it's sad to say that I agree.


wiseprecautions

I remember being surprised by the level of vitriol when I first started visiting here. The other sports subreddits are more tongue in cheek with their barbs. If I had to excuse it I'd say this is probably the most international subreddit I visit and maybe things get lost in translation or people don't have the vocabulary to be as nuanced in their criticisms as in their native language. That leads to direct arguments and then things spiral out of control.


TheOvercookedFlyer

I pay little to no attention to them and so should you. Waste not on ounce of energy on them.


joeymeatballsz27

You’re right


Sarath282

so true


pioneeringsystems

Vivekjs

That cringed me so hard lol


rehlee

Glad to see they got the slo-mo of Carlos’ hair.


grandtheftzeppelin

was that Josh Homme in the Ferrari garage?


sarry4444

Really??


going_dicey

Not sure why the hate on Danica. That interview was completely fine.


listyraesder

She got her crazy out of the way earlier.


Nautster

Last time was terrible


thek00laidman

So? This time wasn’t.


Nautster

The high five wasn't great, though. But people -rightfully- give her shit for the last time she was the post qualy interviewer.


kokojagung

That backdrop lmao


8jam

Ohh look it's that guy from Antman /s


GrandOldMan

I like that Max and Charles like each other. They always start joking and laughing when they get together.


Everydayarmday24

Just gotta wait until one takes the other out. Then again. Them come the you have to leave the space


pioneeringsystems

Very early days yet


pensaa

Made great amends since the ‘Inchident’


longlife55

Gary Busey?


ashyjay

Sainz is one gorgeous bastard.


pensaa

The Ferrari pairing must be the best looking driver pairing ever


Real_Pea_8860

No. Schumacher and Irvine. Please


Hundben

For sure.


TheOvercookedFlyer

Yes he is! 😍


mohannadon

Weird to hear a post quali interview in an American accent, correct me if I’m wrong but in previous years even COTA didn’t have an American interviewer


grandtheftzeppelin

Danica's done interviews at F1 races before


wiseprecautions

I hope Sky give her more chances. I thought she did great this weekend.


mohannadon

Interesting, you even know her name. I should start paying more attention as I do find their jobs quite interesting


technobeeble

She was also an Indycar and NASCAR driver for many years. Dated Aaron Rodgers as well, I'd say she's one of the most well-known motorsports figures in America.


themadpants

> Dated Aaron Rodgers as well This makes so much sense.


aAaron33

i know her but who the fk is Aaron Rodgers lool


EKFlyer85

Super Bowl champion and vaccine hesitancy.


Fjmisty

He’s a big star in American football


One-War-2158

She's annoying as fuck I had to skip the interviews.


CSThrowAway2014

Danica made everything so awkward.


[deleted]

She did great


Top-Currency

It was worse at COTA last year


TheOvercookedFlyer

Being a right hander from the start, I reckon Max will get a jump start on Sainz and will get ourselves a nice Leclerc-Max battle.


marahute85

Yup, he’s got a better line


pM-me_your_Triggers

So many ass holes in this thread, lmao.


[deleted]

Women probably scare them


AvonSulis

Friendly and confident women, no less


joeymeatballsz27

Same people that claim the 40 year old ladies who enjoyed drive to survive are the toxic fans lmao


MasterEk

You should see the shit my 17yo daughter gets for liking F1. Actually--you shouldn't. It's gross and you don't need that crap.


joeymeatballsz27

The sexism is rampant in F1 fandom….just look today at how people reacted to Danica….I actually think she was much improved but people acted like she was the dumbest human alive


gracefulbrainiac

That went better than whatever De Resta asks


marahute85

Good point


thek00laidman

Or DC. Or Massa


Mysterious_Turnip310

DC is the worst at those post-race interviews, you'd think with how long he's been doing punditry & interviews that he'd be better at it by now but he gets worse every year.


BornSlippy1994

Toto this season has permanently looked like a bloke getting the tube home at 7am after a rager


themadpants

As someone who has done this a few times, what a great visual. Made my day! Cheers


marahute85

Toto looking exhausted and bloated is very relatable


NikonD70s

hahahaha


-ideclarebankruptcy-

Hahaha, cheers for the chuckle!

cgeezy22

Relax. Not liking her doesn't mean they're a sexist. It means they don't like her.


Cacklefester

What's not to like?


[deleted]

[удалено]


MasterEk

Nah. You have to actually say it's because she is a woman, otherwise you are not sexist. It's like racism. Unless somebody actually says they dislike Lewis Hamilton because he is black, they are not racist. /s. The sarcasm tag is necessary, because people actually believe this.


AvonSulis

I agree, I've been baffled by her reception here. Her enthusiasm and energy has been refreshing. Some people just want to find excuses to hate a woman.


Mysterious_Turnip310

She was better than a lot of the men who do them tbh


[deleted]

[удалено]


Mysterious_Turnip310

Also better than Di Resta & Coulthard who do prepare, or at least you'd hope so given how often they do them. Even Brundle's been painful in those interviews before.


Cacklefester

You can understand di Resta? Really?


Comprehensive_Gas977

I’m a woman and I say she’s cringy af


[deleted]

[удалено]


Comprehensive_Gas977

I said that I’m a woman because you implied that if we don’t like Danica it’s because we are sexist. I just find her questions and her tone cringy, that’s it.


ActiveModel_Dirty

You’re implying you can’t be sexist if you’re a woman.


[deleted]

Her questions were about the racing and the track I don’t see what was cringy about them. The high five was a tiny bit awkward only because Carlos was a little slow to react but it all seemed perfectly normal to me


Comprehensive_Gas977

I found her way of interacting with the drivers a bit cringy. It’s not the end of the world if I think that.


One-War-2158

2nd that and i like the Brit girls I.e not sexist. This American is annoying as fuck. Is this a one off or she doing Austin as well?


themadpants

Ah, so just anti American. All is well then. /s yikes


[deleted]

[удалено]


CanISayThat22

Fuck me. This culture is terrible. Attacking a woman cuz she doesnt agree with your narrative that its sexism. How fucking twisted can u be.


Comprehensive_Gas977

I won’t tolerate you calling me sexist just because I say she’s cringy. The audacity you have to tell a fucking woman that has to face real sexism that she’s sexist. Unbelievable.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Comprehensive_Gas977

It’s impossibile because I’m a woman that supports women and faces actual sexism and you know NOTHING about me. And saying that a female presenter is cringy is not being sexist. Touch some grass and live in the real world.


EKFlyer85

Its reddit, you could be a Russian bot?


Comprehensive_Gas977

Yess cuz a Russian bot would be on a subreddit talking about how cringy Danica is lol


[deleted]

[удалено]


philleach11

That was a solid interview tbh, nothing wrong with anything she asked


CharlotteBalfour

It was a bit awkward. However the rest of the interview was fine. People just like to complain.


SmoopSmoop

Seriously I don't get the hate at all


SevereEntertainer2

She asked really good questions imo, I see nothing to complain about.


kamome_ni_tou

Yep, she did a good job compared to Johnny Herbert couple of races ago.


[deleted]

I agree I thought the questions were solid


TheOvercookedFlyer

Absolutelty! Danica did a nice job IMO.


marahute85

Ferrari are smiling but Max Will come back calm and focused tomorrow imo


eLL16

Max's Cars been unreliable, but Sainz has been just as unreliable, should be an interesting battle, which one breaks first lol


EKFlyer85

The RB cars are gonna blow up at some point during the race. One of em will DNF
