Ugh, that f**king marble mouth of his. I hope his Italian is a little more clear.

So, a "Lifetime ban" really isn't a lifetime ban. Go figure.

Have you seen an interview of him recently? He’s a bumbling old man.

For a multi billion dollar sport, it always cracks me up how they just recycle the same few people.

It wasn't a bet. The kid has been his personal project for at least five years.

I just watched "The Seat" on Netflix last night. It is all about Kimi and pretty much corroborates this point. He has been on their radar since he was about 12 yo.

Don’t forget to read the comments. Sebastian Vettel is the only answer.

Nope. As much of a fan I was of him when he was a driver, he is now part of the "woke" movement. And being a hypocrite while he is at it. He might be as bad as MBS. Follow the money.
