Not sure what country a fan is from has anything to do with the situation... plenty of US based Verstappen fans. Do you only cheer for Sargent and Haas? |
I don't care about him anymore than I care about the EU as a whole and it's barely relevant countries. Max is the only thing they have to claim some kind of relevance, so it's not a surprise how much they look to him as 'god' |
AmuroRay, you're free to express your points of view, to root for whoever you like and to criticize whoever you like, but you're gonna
refrain from politicizing discussions.
Hence, keep your condescending / inciting comments on nationality for other venues than Bimmerpost.
Do not misbehave like Helmut Marko recently did:

Marko (pictured above with Perez) was speaking on Servus TV after the Italian Grand Prix and said of Perez: “We know that he has problems in qualifying, he has fluctuations in form — he is South American and he is just not as completely focused in his head as Max (Verstappen) is or as Sebastian (Vettel).”
Reuters quoting Marko as telling Austria’s OE24 website: “It wasn’t meant that way. I meant that a Mexican has a different mentality than a German or a Dutchman. But who knows, maybe it’s controlled.”
Marko issued a statement apologizing over the weekend and Perez says he has spoken to the 80-year-old, and that there are no lingering issues between the two.

The derogatory remark by Helmut Marko about Perez was definitely inappropriate. |
For the rest, welcome to 2023.
