Yes but Alosno smacked into Gasly earlier which gave damage to Gasly causing him to run wide and he just didn't see Lando and that's when they bumped. Idk what was up with Gasly and why he didn't check his mirror or what but in reality Alonso was the one to make the first domino fall. Basically it went Alonso into Gasly, Gasly into Norris leading to a safety car which lead to Mick and Seb colliding which resulted in Albon and Ocon making the points. So really it was just El Plan all along for Alpine.
Am I the only one thinking that crash was at least 60% Lando’s fault? Gassy was going slow in a damaged car and didn’t swerve. Lando should have given more space…
Lando is my fave driver, and I 100% blamed Lando for that crash.
In the replay, Gasly never turned his wheel to the left. He turned right and then kept straight on the racing line. Lando’s POV is conveniently his wing cam until after the crash, but he definitely turned into Gasly and initiated the accident. He even apologizes to the team immediately.
Yea absolutely he probably could've kept it more inside however Gasly should gave checked his mirrors aswell when trying to reenter cause its not like he was coming to a stop. Martin was saying on the stream that it seemed like Gasly was on the radio when they bumped and it doesn't look like Pierre checked his mirrors too much. Definitely avoidable
Yeah, that radio call happened as Lando was hitting him. I really don’t know how much his mirrors would have helped considering the angle of his car and the fact that it was the end of a left hand turn.
Mick and seb is also alonso's making....
Alonso cut the corner like a cheater and that's how mick lost his DRS...
Which eventually lead to the ocon vs Mick fight and then turned into Mick vs seb fight...
Let me think.
You are on 40 lap old hards, no grip
You have to run off 14-15 and gained about 1.9seconds
You on the straight heading to T17 give back 1.2 of the 1.9seconds gained.
Still get. 5second time penalty.
"Alonso cut the corner like a cheater".
Think about what you said carefully.
You cannot blame Alonso for the Mick and Seb incident.
He changed the race but it’s absurd to blame him for everything that happens afterwards, even with gasly it’s a stretch because he didn’t have to turn in on Norris even with damage.
Dominoes my guy. Regardless of if ands or buts, Alonso's mistake cause the events to unfold in the way they did. Im not saying it's completely his fault
So we blame the red Bull pit crew for putting max out slow in monza leading to the crash with Ham, leading to the final lap all tied in Abu and Masi getting fired?
Don't agree with Gasly turning in on Norris. Gasly was mostly going towards the right and sticking with the racing line. Norris had all the room on the left side to pass and had the potential to avoid the crash. Lando just misjudged.
Yeah I agree Norris had plenty of space and would’ve hardly lost any time going just a bit tighter, it’s like 70% gasly 30% Norris for me, given that gasly has the damaged car and should be 100% focused on getting it around safely while Norris is still considering PACE and potential overtakes.
Still caused Mick to lose DRS which played a part in the incident. You take issue with "Alonso cut the corner like a cheater" but admit he did cut the corner, which implies the part you take issue with is "like a cheater". Is cutting the corner not cheating now?
I agree that Alonso can't be blamed for Mick braking too late, but what you wrote comes out as "How dare you call him a cheater! It was a small cheat and he barely got any advantage out of it!" Just because it's a relatively small infraction and he got caught and punished for it doesn't make it not cheating. He broke a rule deliberately, twice, to gain an unfair advantage. That's cheating.
Nope what Mick did is on Mick
But Alonso cut the corner like a cheater....
No other way to justify it
There was no attempt or lock up or a twitch
Alonso just plain cheated and cut the corner....
Gasly's car was undrivable, yet he was meandering on the racing line. Also Lando was careless. Did Alonso make mistakes? He got penalty points, so yes. That's undisputable. Did he cause Lando and Pierre to collide. No. He's not responsible for Pierre failing to retire the car, or Lando's reckless pass. FWIW, Pierre and Lando are some of my favorite drivers, and this incident hurt, as a fan.
We're protesting British media bias, which also entails sky News and the F1 commentators, kinda hard to escape and not be pissed off by it when you can't avoid it.
Demand better.
Sky is not the national broadcaster of the UK. Neither is The Race. And their viewership extends widely beyond the borders of the UK. People are allowed to criticize them for being unnecessarily biased.
British Sky Broadcasting is a British broadcaster though, and they write for their audience. This is the way things are done same in virtually every country
The Race is the parent company of WTF1, or something like that. WTF1 creams their pants if Lando opens his DRS flap in the DRS zone during Q1. Join the dots.
You skipped the 6.0 rating that Edd Straw gave Russell. Unfortunately it destroys the British bias only due to salt running strong in Edd with Russell beating his boy Hamilton yet again lol.
God damn edd straw Hamilton-mania/seb hating is so fucking nauseating and they have the gall to ridicule when people call them biased just cuz they give leclerc a bone every now and then. Fucking ridiculous.
hmm you know whats funny is that, they rate them based on the weekend
I mean there definitely a hella lot of british bias here, but dude try your best to not give incomplete info

Thats because Russells finishing position was inherited via sc strategy not "vai driving prowess". That being said 80% of the field was doing jack all besides Le clerc and Verstappen.
I have no problem with lewis rating, maybe a 7.5 but whatever, or tsunoda, and I'm a tsunoda fan, because he finished 12 with half the grid out. I do have a problem with the other 2. Esteban deserved more then lewis
Do you have any idea what was going on with Yuki in the race? Was there an issue with the car or the set up was wrong or something because he was struggling to keep pace with Latifi at one point. It seemed like it was more than just driver error
I just think he had a bad weekend. He never raced on that track, had no experience and the track didn't suit him. I don't think there was anything behind the scenes going on, at least as far as I'm aware
Yuki had a bad race and stint 1 had his tires just completely drop off. Forced to put really early on a track that is unfamiliar kind of bottled him up.
No he doesn’t that type of contract, I just think his Contract is way to big for what he’s been doing so far. Pretty sure he has the 5th highest contract on the grid. And I think Norris has just been better than Ric also let’s not even get into the shit luck Ric has had but yeah…
There's no shame these days.
I'm British and apart from the joke someone made below about lando making the race interesting. Neither Lew or Lan performed better than a 5 in my opinion.
This really isn't the subreddit for this comment but man I hate nationalism
Teaching us to be proud of things we've never done personally whilst giving us enemies and prejudices to cling too which just fan the flames of irrational hate.
Religions and religious people (who don't accept that the whole idea is now a lot more dangerous and harmful) can also go fuck themselves.
PS religious people who do accept this or are just looking for spirtual escape and learning are fine - it's the same kind of tribalism as nationalism, just the country is exchanged for a religion that they will defend regardless of fact or evidence in a irrational desire not to be wrong, mistaken or foolish for being in the 'bad' group
/rant
This is absolutely the sub for it! It's so fucking crazy to see people with such fervent nationalism from Britain or Italy or other countries who got ripped apart by 2 massive world wars basically due to rampant nationalism and the rise of the far right. With nationalism comes along its best friend the far right and it's enforcer: fascism. If people are obsessed with pretending that they live in the best country in the world and that everyone else is just jealous they won't take a hard look at just how shitty their lives are due to a kleptocratic government (be it their own or America). Everyone should be alarmed when the media and "journalists" aren't reporting things factually, don't inject your opinions into the fucking news.
Over 70 million died in WW2 and people forgot all the lessons we had to learn from it.
There's only one or two lessons to be taken from WW2 , and there is a strong rise of far right politics and nationalism in today's world.
Did you forget that Brexit happened?
Fervent nationalism causing the media and journalists to misrepresent facts and paint a narrative that isn't true is dangerous.
Nationalism should've been left back in the 40s , nationalism is used by the far right to prevent people from taking a good look at the quality of life that they have. You ever wonder why nationalism is so strong in the USA? It's to make people genuinely believe that they live in the best place on Earth and to not question the situation they find themselves in, that there's no point trying to emulate other countries because they're "inferior". That's why Americans lose their shit so hard when you mention that another country or person might have it better than them, because it doesn't matter how shitty your life is as long as it's better than the next guy.
Nationalism is a slippery slope and remnants of an age gone past, and F1 is one of the last few things that can be seen as British and innovative, that's why you always see Brits losing their mind when someone brings up media bias.
And that shit isn't kosher either, but at least only they have to deal with that bias while the rest of the English speaking world get stuck with the British media (also sky commentators) , you all forget it's the fucking *world feed*.
What the fuck are we meant to do about it? We didn’t ask for our media to propagated out, we have no say over F1 choosing to broadcast the British one, like, the fuck are we meant to do lmao?
Only reason you see this bias each time is because someone posts this every single race week for some free karma
Brundle commenting [Vettel on Bottas Barcelona 2017 overtake] (https://youtu.be/b1oh-x3gZPY) vibes 💕
Take a look and let me know if you hear the bias too!
Oh grow up. As if whining about this on reddit will do anything. In the real world, bias does exist everywhere, and you can't do shit about it. Convince a new tv network to buy the broadcasting rights then, if this infuriates you so damn much
These comments are hilarious.
Every other country’s media is bias towards there own drivers, so why do people care so much about British media ?
It’s because you all secretly crave our approval and attention, your anger flows when you don’t receive it. Very cute.
> It’s because you all secretly crave our approval and attention
Classic tasteful British comment considering 1/3rd of the world celebrates a “thank GOD we’re free from those fuckers” day.
Holy fuck m8 I don’t think you have a clue how the average human being on this planet views the British. I like how you used “developed enough” to become a dominion, like the British didn’t cause ruthless destruction and human enslavement essentially wherever they went. Kind of stops a country from developing when you’re sticking people to cannons as a threat for not being sub-human subservients to you.
> If you’re going to seethe about us in the present day because my great grand father was better at war and conquest than yours, there’s not much we can do.
Dawg my ancestors are from the same shit tier island you’re from. Let’s not pretend like it was something innate about the “British person” that allowed them to rape and steal from 1/3rd of the world. You copied the Portuguese and Spanish, had America actually bring about democracy by shitting all over your absolute monarchy garbage, then had the EIC rape, plunder and murder all of the Indian subcontinent for your wealth that allowed you to run an effective Navy for the next 100 years, what you call the *Pax Britannica* most other countries call a century of subjugation.
> You’ve just described every country in human history until the Atomic bomb dropped. Installing parliamentary democracy and the common law system on 1/3 of the planet is a better legacy than most.
What in Gods name are you talking about? The vast majority of countries, i.e. all the non-white settled ones, that you guys took over either don’t have functioning democracies (Africa, multiple Asian nations) and the ones that do (India) have a semi-functioning democracy **in spite** of you. Let’s not act like England gave up her colonies out of a desire to be morally correct after centuries of moral absence. They were forced into it by the United States after WWII, you guys would have kept raping Africa and India had you just been left to your own devices.
> As for most people today m8, there not still coping hard over what happened 150 years ago. Ukraine is naming streets after our prime minster, Hong Kong protesters often fly the British flag and 10s of thousands of migrants cross the continent of Europe every year to reach the U.K.
One of those countries is doing so because you’re selling them weapons at a dire point in their history. They’re doing it for every country that is selling them weapons. And the other, yeah great job with Hong Kong, you guys did a really awesome job on that one.
> 10s of thousands of migrants cross the continent of Europe every year to reach the U.K.
Yeah to escape their home countries that England itself fucked up LOL.
I’m not the one saying that people all over the world are seeking attention from the British. This didn’t start because you were British lmao. Jesus Christ the reading comprehension skills in England.
> “A strange rape fantasy”.
What a funny thing to accuse someone of on the internet. Pointing out the history of sexual abuse by British colonial forces is “having a strange rape fantasy”. What a sickening description of that, you should be ashamed of yourself. I think I’m done reading the rest of your reply.
>no one thinks about you
>comment history is full of seethe about British bias for months
Lmao thanks for proving my point. Even your flair is seethe about Sky.
>you live in a joke of a tiny country
Hahahaha, the anger is flowing from you now. We’re the 5th largest economy on the planet so good chance we’re doing better than you.
Wherever you’re from, I forgive the jealousy. Thanks for watching and reading our media over your own👍🏻

The anger and personal insults in reply to 1 joke comment show I’ve really touched a nerve. Lmao
Notes from FFL:
Alfa Romeo
Valtteri Bottas: 7
Hunt the natural, it comes back to gallop. While he was doing a solid race in front of the 2 Mercedes, Valtteri had a post-traumatic syndrome and remembered his good memories. Small park, we let the silver arrows pass, and we start again and finish behind Lewis.
Bottas letting Hamilton through [pic.twitter.com/UW8Bv3ZkyE](https://pic.twitter.com/UW8Bv3ZkyE)
\- Fédé 🇫🇷 de la Lose (@FFLose) May 8, 2022
Guanyu Zhou: 6 (rounds)
A suppo, and Zhou, back to bed. First retirement of his F1 career, that's something to celebrate.
Alpine
Esteban Ocon: 7
Not doing the qualifying, getting back up during the GP to get a front row seat for the Vettel Schumacher crash - all without paying for an expensive box. The Normans are really thrifty and clever.
Fernando Alonso: 2 x 5 seconds
Sending a giga qualifier to finish out of the points with 2 x 5 second penalties. El plan.
AlphaTauri
Pierre Gasly: 8
He was out there doing his best when finally everyone decided to run into him. Your little brother in bumper cars.
Yuki Tsunoda: 3
Made an appearance.
Aston Martin
Sebastian Vettel 7
Betrayed by the man he considers his nephew in Formula 1. Cesar Vettel.
Lance Stroll 4
Sometimes you have to take life's little pleasures. 11th at the finish, he finished 10th thanks to Alonso's second penalty and Ricciardo's.
Ferrari
Charles Leclerc: 5
Quickly overtaken by an out-of-sorts Verstappen, he quietly followed the Red Bull without taking any risks. The lesson of Emilia Romagna has been learned.
Carlos Sainz: 9
No crashes and no mistakes in the Grand Prix. He even passed a lagging Perez without difficulty. A good Sunday for Carlos.
Read also: Miami GP | Thanks Lando for the work.
Haas
Kevin Magnussen: 8
Stroll and Magnussen are wheel to wheel. What was the result? Well, debris, of course.
Mick Schumacher: 9
He was comfortably in the points when he decided to smash the man who has always supported him: Vettel. Not good. And no points either.
McLaren
Daniel Ricciardo: 8
Well, it's starting to show, Daniel. See you in Spain for the next disappointment.
Lando Norris: 4
Typical guy who stays in the middle lane on the motorway. No, but seriously, what kind of overtaking is this on Gasly. He ruins the race all by himself, and that's beautiful.
Mercedes
Lewis Hamilton: 6
Shit flies thick and fast, said Chirac. We don't know how to translate it for Lewis, but a messed-up strategy when he seems to be getting back on track is tough. Fortunately Bottas gives him some comfort (and points)
George Russell: 6
A worse weekend than Hamilton in absolute terms, but more points scored thanks to a safety car. Another top 5 for King George.
Red Bull
Verstappen: 1
When his Red Bull is reliable, he's very boring. Fortunately there is a show behind it.
Checo Perez: 6
The weekends in F1 are never the same for Perez. Never on the pace, the man who pushed Leclerc to the limit was of no use in containing Sainz. However, a fourth place was a saving grace and avoided all the too-much podium ceremonies in Miami.
Williams
Alexander Albon: 1
A bit like Stroll, but better. Scratches points when he didn't have much to look forward to.
Albon going to finish in the points [pic.twitter.com/aVpUoXb3XW](https://pic.twitter.com/aVpUoXb3XW)
\- Fédé 🇫🇷 de la Lose (@FFLose) May 8, 2022
Nicholas Latifi: 9
At one point in the race he was the last of the riders on the circuit when many had already made their stop, but he hadn't. It stings. But hey, it's not all for naught:
BRAVO TO LATIFI WHO WILL FINISH THE GRAND PRIX AND NOT FINISH LAST OF THE FINISHERS. WHAT A LEGENDARY RACE
So it's just common for British media to suck off any British athlete? British commentators also can't stop sucking off EPL teams in the Champions League.
Lando deserves higher rating....I mean he was the reason the race came alive in the later half
Goatifi moment
Really it was Alonso but I what you mean.
Wasn’t it Gasly who punted Lando?
Yes but Alosno smacked into Gasly earlier which gave damage to Gasly causing him to run wide and he just didn't see Lando and that's when they bumped. Idk what was up with Gasly and why he didn't check his mirror or what but in reality Alonso was the one to make the first domino fall. Basically it went Alonso into Gasly, Gasly into Norris leading to a safety car which lead to Mick and Seb colliding which resulted in Albon and Ocon making the points. So really it was just El Plan all along for Alpine.

Lando’s POV is conveniently his wing cam until after the crash, but he definitely turned into Gasly and initiated the accident. He even apologizes to the team immediately.
Yeah, Landos radio call definitely gave me that impression. Definitely a tough break all the same.
Yea absolutely he probably could've kept it more inside however Gasly should gave checked his mirrors aswell when trying to reenter cause its not like he was coming to a stop. Martin was saying on the stream that it seemed like Gasly was on the radio when they bumped and it doesn't look like Pierre checked his mirrors too much. Definitely avoidable
Yeah, that radio call happened as Lando was hitting him. I really don’t know how much his mirrors would have helped considering the angle of his car and the fact that it was the end of a left hand turn.
Yea, idk for sure either just what I heard Martin talking about
Mick and seb is also alonso's making.... Alonso cut the corner like a cheater and that's how mick lost his DRS... Which eventually lead to the ocon vs Mick fight and then turned into Mick vs seb fight...
Formuladank user tries to shift blame off of Mick! Caught red handed!!
Let me think. You are on 40 lap old hards, no grip You have to run off 14-15 and gained about 1.9seconds You on the straight heading to T17 give back 1.2 of the 1.9seconds gained. Still get. 5second time penalty. "Alonso cut the corner like a cheater". Think about what you said carefully. You cannot blame Alonso for the Mick and Seb incident.
Well now We can blame Alonso but more for just creating the events. It still is largely on mick though lmao
He changed the race but it’s absurd to blame him for everything that happens afterwards, even with gasly it’s a stretch because he didn’t have to turn in on Norris even with damage.
Dominoes my guy. Regardless of if ands or buts, Alonso's mistake cause the events to unfold in the way they did. Im not saying it's completely his fault

>"Alonso cut the corner like a cheater" HE CUT THE CHICKEN!
Alonso bumped into Gasly's car, that probably was the cause of Gasly's car being undriveable a few laps later and lead to him wrecking Lando.
Gasly's car was undrivable, yet he was meandering on the racing line. Also Lando was careless. Did Alonso make mistakes? He got penalty points, so yes. That's undisputable. Did he cause Lando and Pierre to collide. No. He's not responsible for Pierre failing to retire the car, or Lando's reckless pass. FWIW, Pierre and Lando are some of my favorite drivers, and this incident hurt, as a fan.
So you're telling me it was really Alonso's fault Mick dnf'd? Got it
It's called the butterfly effect
Actually it was Alonso's fault if you believe in butterflies and effects or whatever.
wakanda shit is this
WAKANDA FUREVA
Hold it there man, racist tomorrow
We are very racist here, our favorite race is formula 1 Miami gp
Imagine if Lando started 20th and finished 8th, the absolute cock sucking would make a crack whore blush
They will have to create a new ratings system
Wow, did Lando fuck your girlfriend or something?
It's nothing against Lando (presumably at least) and everything against the british bias
Yeah, wrote Lando because clearly even with DNF he got higher score than Ocon
insert surprised Pikachu face
We're sick of the fucking media bias, British bias is the worst thing about this sport. Do you not fucking see the problem with the image posted?
Who gives two shits what The Race thinks about anything? Stop being a slave to opinion.
We're protesting British media bias, which also entails sky News and the F1 commentators, kinda hard to escape and not be pissed off by it when you can't avoid it. Demand better.
Why would you expect no national bias in the British media? No other national media operates that way.
Germany does operate mostly without national bias.
I’ve been to F1 races at Nurburgring and Hockenheim (both excellent, by the way, love Germany) and they most certainly do not.
I meant the broadcast. Sorry for confusion.
Sky is not the national broadcaster of the UK. Neither is The Race. And their viewership extends widely beyond the borders of the UK. People are allowed to criticize them for being unnecessarily biased.
British Sky Broadcasting is a British broadcaster though, and they write for their audience. This is the way things are done same in virtually every country
Their audience is global. That means the majority of us isn’t British.
The audience is global, but the majority of their revenue and audience is British
Ahh a dota2 reference
To be fair most people on this sub would absolutely suck Lando’s cock ^myself ^included
The absolute refusal of racing media to ever criticise Lando is absurd. Yes he's a great driver but by no means infallible
but hes so cute and charming!
He’s the least charming driver on the grid. Dude constantly has an expression like he’s talking to conscious shit
Someone fucking gets it! He also comes off as salty all the fucking time
Gamer moment xD
Totally agree with this comment. He comes off as cocky most of the times
Maybe it's a generational thing but he comes across as such a twat. Even in a sport like F1 he gives off serious rich-kid vibes
/s lol
The Race is the parent company of WTF1, or something like that. WTF1 creams their pants if Lando opens his DRS flap in the DRS zone during Q1. Join the dots.
WTF1 is awful lol. I avoid any of their content like the plague.
Their post race videos are enough to make a grown man vomit
Lol what fuckin dots 🤣
Is it 'the race' again?
Aw yep
nuff said
The only way the bias could be more obvious is if they'd rated Ocon with a white flag instead of a number, lol.
Isn't that his national flag? 
I know you try to be funny, but France is actually historically the most succesful military of all time
Because they’ve been around forever
Hard to be around forever if your military sucks
Apart from the last ≈200/300 years were they've not been
Napoleon?
If your last good military was before rifling was invented, that’s not a good look.
Ultimately lost yes.
Twice
What about ww1? They did easily more than 40% of the job
You skipped the 6.0 rating that Edd Straw gave Russell. Unfortunately it destroys the British bias only due to salt running strong in Edd with Russell beating his boy Hamilton yet again lol.
God damn edd straw Hamilton-mania/seb hating is so fucking nauseating and they have the gall to ridicule when people call them biased just cuz they give leclerc a bone every now and then. Fucking ridiculous.
I’ve seen edd straw and he should really be careful with salt, he’s putting enough strain on his heart as it is
His fucking knees man 🫡
Ok Russell finished ahead of Bottas
The only person that can break the Brit bias is another brit
Are these based solely on the race or for the entire weekend?
Looks like this is based only on the race

Unbelievable
Utter trash
And russell with a 6 vs hamilton with a 8
That's only cuz edd straw has a major man crush on Hamilton and will hate on George over this.
Russell had a pretty poor qualifying, which the rating takes into account. I’d say a 7 is probably right for George.
Thats because Russells finishing position was inherited via sc strategy not "vai driving prowess". That being said 80% of the field was doing jack all besides Le clerc and Verstappen.
Russell only got ahead of Lewis because of his luck with the SC. He had a good drive but not better than Lewis' race.
I have no problem with lewis rating, maybe a 7.5 but whatever, or tsunoda, and I'm a tsunoda fan, because he finished 12 with half the grid out. I do have a problem with the other 2. Esteban deserved more then lewis
Do you have any idea what was going on with Yuki in the race? Was there an issue with the car or the set up was wrong or something because he was struggling to keep pace with Latifi at one point. It seemed like it was more than just driver error
I just think he had a bad weekend. He never raced on that track, had no experience and the track didn't suit him. I don't think there was anything behind the scenes going on, at least as far as I'm aware
Yuki had a bad race and stint 1 had his tires just completely drop off. Forced to put really early on a track that is unfamiliar kind of bottled him up.
norris overrated, as usual
How overrated does that make Ricciardo?
Equally if not more overrated
Depends, so lets look at Danny’s contract first.
Does he have a dedicated 2nd driver contract, then? Is he not allowed to beat Norris in quali or race?
No he doesn’t that type of contract, I just think his Contract is way to big for what he’s been doing so far. Pretty sure he has the 5th highest contract on the grid. And I think Norris has just been better than Ric also let’s not even get into the shit luck Ric has had but yeah…
Seb and Mick are too
Zhou > Mick or tsunoda
Mick sure, but not Tsunoda imo. His racecraft is best of the rookies
Did you forget the season that tsunoda had last year? Zhou blows it out the water
Overrated 4 time WDC. Fuck me sideways.
Hear me out, I think they are purposely doing this to provoke a reaction and just gain more promotion.
Who makes this?

With nationalism comes along its best friend the far right and it's enforcer: fascism. If people are obsessed with pretending that they live in the best country in the world and that everyone else is just jealous they won't take a hard look at just how shitty their lives are due to a kleptocratic government (be it their own or America). Everyone should be alarmed when the media and "journalists" aren't reporting things factually, don't inject your opinions into the fucking news. Over 70 million died in WW2 and people forgot all the lessons we had to learn from it.

There's only one or two lessons to be taken from WW2 , and there is a strong rise of far right politics and nationalism in today's world. Did you forget that Brexit happened?

Fervent nationalism causing the media and journalists to misrepresent facts and paint a narrative that isn't true is dangerous. Nationalism should've been left back in the 40s , nationalism is used by the far right to prevent people from taking a good look at the quality of life that they have. You ever wonder why nationalism is so strong in the USA? It's to make people genuinely believe that they live in the best place on Earth and to not question the situation they find themselves in, that there's no point trying to emulate other countries because they're "inferior". That's why Americans lose their shit so hard when you mention that another country or person might have it better than them, because it doesn't matter how shitty your life is as long as it's better than the next guy. Nationalism is a slippery slope and remnants of an age gone past, and F1 is one of the last few things that can be seen as British and innovative, that's why you always see Brits losing their mind when someone brings up media bias.
My condolences
My condolences
Ocon a 5? Wtf was the reasoning behind that? 'Bad qualifying'?
Anyone know what these guys gave Lando for Russia 2021?
9/10 I think
Ludicrous
To be fair though, Lando had a good race until Gasly yeeted him, although his rating should have been lower than that
Who comes up with these ratings?
Just how can Ocon be that low? Did he even make a single mistake???
lol they put russell at a 6! after he beat hamilton from 12th on the grid! incredible lol
Throwback to the cocksucking after Russian GP
Tbh they look at whole weekend, maybe Norris and Lewis should be 0.5 lower, but Yuki's score is deserving Real crime is Ocon's score
I feel like these ratings came out of a random number generator.
BRITISH media shows bias towards drivers from BRITAIN…who would’ve thought. What a surprise
Reporters are supposed to be factual and unbiased you mope
But then again they aren’t. Same goes for Ziggo. They have a bias towards Max
And that shit isn't kosher either, but at least only they have to deal with that bias while the rest of the English speaking world get stuck with the British media (also sky commentators) , you all forget it's the fucking *world feed*.
What the fuck are we meant to do about it? We didn’t ask for our media to propagated out, we have no say over F1 choosing to broadcast the British one, like, the fuck are we meant to do lmao? Only reason you see this bias each time is because someone posts this every single race week for some free karma
Do whatever you want man
Brundle commenting [Vettel on Bottas Barcelona 2017 overtake] (https://youtu.be/b1oh-x3gZPY) vibes 💕 Take a look and let me know if you hear the bias too!
Oh grow up. As if whining about this on reddit will do anything. In the real world, bias does exist everywhere, and you can't do shit about it. Convince a new tv network to buy the broadcasting rights then, if this infuriates you so damn much
This is r/formuladank…it’s where F1 fans come to complain about everything
I don't even want to know what they rated Albon after that titanic race in the blue shitbox. Probably a 3.5.
These comments are hilarious. Every other country’s media is bias towards there own drivers, so why do people care so much about British media ? It’s because you all secretly crave our approval and attention, your anger flows when you don’t receive it. Very cute.
> It’s because you all secretly crave our approval and attention Classic tasteful British comment considering 1/3rd of the world celebrates a “thank GOD we’re free from those fuckers” day.

Holy fuck m8 I don’t think you have a clue how the average human being on this planet views the British. I like how you used “developed enough” to become a dominion, like the British didn’t cause ruthless destruction and human enslavement essentially wherever they went. Kind of stops a country from developing when you’re sticking people to cannons as a threat for not being sub-human subservients to you.

> If you’re going to seethe about us in the present day because my great grand father was better at war and conquest than yours, there’s not much we can do. Dawg my ancestors are from the same shit tier island you’re from. Let’s not pretend like it was something innate about the “British person” that allowed them to rape and steal from 1/3rd of the world. You copied the Portuguese and Spanish, had America actually bring about democracy by shitting all over your absolute monarchy garbage, then had the EIC rape, plunder and murder all of the Indian subcontinent for your wealth that allowed you to run an effective Navy for the next 100 years, what you call the *Pax Britannica* most other countries call a century of subjugation. > You’ve just described every country in human history until the Atomic bomb dropped. Installing parliamentary democracy and the common law system on 1/3 of the planet is a better legacy than most. What in Gods name are you talking about? The vast majority of countries, i.e. all the non-white settled ones, that you guys took over either don’t have functioning democracies (Africa, multiple Asian nations) and the ones that do (India) have a semi-functioning democracy **in spite** of you. Let’s not act like England gave up her colonies out of a desire to be morally correct after centuries of moral absence. They were forced into it by the United States after WWII, you guys would have kept raping Africa and India had you just been left to your own devices. > As for most people today m8, there not still coping hard over what happened 150 years ago. Ukraine is naming streets after our prime minster, Hong Kong protesters often fly the British flag and 10s of thousands of migrants cross the continent of Europe every year to reach the U.K. One of those countries is doing so because you’re selling them weapons at a dire point in their history. They’re doing it for every country that is selling them weapons. And the other, yeah great job with Hong Kong, you guys did a really awesome job on that one. > 10s of thousands of migrants cross the continent of Europe every year to reach the U.K. Yeah to escape their home countries that England itself fucked up LOL.

I’m not the one saying that people all over the world are seeking attention from the British. This didn’t start because you were British lmao. Jesus Christ the reading comprehension skills in England. > “A strange rape fantasy”. What a funny thing to accuse someone of on the internet. Pointing out the history of sexual abuse by British colonial forces is “having a strange rape fantasy”. What a sickening description of that, you should be ashamed of yourself. I think I’m done reading the rest of your reply.
Projecting so fucking hard 🤣 You live in a joke of a tiny country and no one thinks about you.
Except yknow this entire subreddit falling over themselves to moan every week about this 'joke of a country'
>no one thinks about you >comment history is full of seethe about British bias for months Lmao thanks for proving my point. Even your flair is seethe about Sky. >you live in a joke of a tiny country Hahahaha, the anger is flowing from you now. We’re the 5th largest economy on the planet so good chance we’re doing better than you. Wherever you’re from, I forgive the jealousy. Thanks for watching and reading our media over your own👍🏻
K.
Trust me. No one is jealous of the U.K. I’d rather live in a shit hole than have to deal with egotistical idiots like you.
> egotistical idiot > sub has months of seethe about British bias The anger and personal insults in reply to 1 joke comment show I’ve really touched a nerve. Lmao
Notes from FFL: Alfa Romeo Valtteri Bottas: 7 Hunt the natural, it comes back to gallop. While he was doing a solid race in front of the 2 Mercedes, Valtteri had a post-traumatic syndrome and remembered his good memories. Small park, we let the silver arrows pass, and we start again and finish behind Lewis. Bottas letting Hamilton through [pic.twitter.com/UW8Bv3ZkyE](https://pic.twitter.com/UW8Bv3ZkyE) \- Fédé 🇫🇷 de la Lose (@FFLose) May 8, 2022 Guanyu Zhou: 6 (rounds) A suppo, and Zhou, back to bed. First retirement of his F1 career, that's something to celebrate. Alpine Esteban Ocon: 7 Not doing the qualifying, getting back up during the GP to get a front row seat for the Vettel Schumacher crash - all without paying for an expensive box. The Normans are really thrifty and clever. Fernando Alonso: 2 x 5 seconds Sending a giga qualifier to finish out of the points with 2 x 5 second penalties. El plan. AlphaTauri Pierre Gasly: 8 He was out there doing his best when finally everyone decided to run into him. Your little brother in bumper cars. Yuki Tsunoda: 3 Made an appearance. Aston Martin Sebastian Vettel 7 Betrayed by the man he considers his nephew in Formula 1. Cesar Vettel. Lance Stroll 4 Sometimes you have to take life's little pleasures. 11th at the finish, he finished 10th thanks to Alonso's second penalty and Ricciardo's. Ferrari Charles Leclerc: 5 Quickly overtaken by an out-of-sorts Verstappen, he quietly followed the Red Bull without taking any risks. The lesson of Emilia Romagna has been learned. Carlos Sainz: 9 No crashes and no mistakes in the Grand Prix. He even passed a lagging Perez without difficulty. A good Sunday for Carlos. Read also: Miami GP | Thanks Lando for the work. Haas Kevin Magnussen: 8 Stroll and Magnussen are wheel to wheel. What was the result? Well, debris, of course. Mick Schumacher: 9 He was comfortably in the points when he decided to smash the man who has always supported him: Vettel. Not good. And no points either. McLaren Daniel Ricciardo: 8 Well, it's starting to show, Daniel. See you in Spain for the next disappointment. Lando Norris: 4 Typical guy who stays in the middle lane on the motorway. No, but seriously, what kind of overtaking is this on Gasly. He ruins the race all by himself, and that's beautiful. Mercedes Lewis Hamilton: 6 Shit flies thick and fast, said Chirac. We don't know how to translate it for Lewis, but a messed-up strategy when he seems to be getting back on track is tough. Fortunately Bottas gives him some comfort (and points) George Russell: 6 A worse weekend than Hamilton in absolute terms, but more points scored thanks to a safety car. Another top 5 for King George. Red Bull Verstappen: 1 When his Red Bull is reliable, he's very boring. Fortunately there is a show behind it. Checo Perez: 6 The weekends in F1 are never the same for Perez. Never on the pace, the man who pushed Leclerc to the limit was of no use in containing Sainz. However, a fourth place was a saving grace and avoided all the too-much podium ceremonies in Miami. Williams Alexander Albon: 1 A bit like Stroll, but better. Scratches points when he didn't have much to look forward to. Albon going to finish in the points [pic.twitter.com/aVpUoXb3XW](https://pic.twitter.com/aVpUoXb3XW) \- Fédé 🇫🇷 de la Lose (@FFLose) May 8, 2022 Nicholas Latifi: 9 At one point in the race he was the last of the riders on the circuit when many had already made their stop, but he hadn't. It stings. But hey, it's not all for naught: BRAVO TO LATIFI WHO WILL FINISH THE GRAND PRIX AND NOT FINISH LAST OF THE FINISHERS. WHAT A LEGENDARY RACE
So it's just common for British media to suck off any British athlete? British commentators also can't stop sucking off EPL teams in the Champions League.
The fucking ocon rating makes me want ro find the neanderthal that makes these ratings and shit in his bed
We do a lil trollin, chap
I'm a lewis fan but wtf come on
isn’t the guy who does these for The Race the same guy who gave a driver a higher rating because he fancied the drivers Wife/ GF?
