That would be way better. There would be no hate, there would be no crazy love hamilton thing either.ecapox wrote:I'd almost like to have some of those threads happen in real life with people physically sitting next to each other.
This fact actually made me have a random thought... Isn't it normal for drivers' contracts to contain a clause saying that if they win the WDC, they get paid a bonus by the team... the car.DaveKillens wrote:I can understand why Tony took care of the McLaren, it's a very special piece of kit, it was the car that carried Lewis to his title.

Agreed. The politics and fanboyism gets to be a bit much at times. Well... a lot of times. Montreal was a great race. And we still have twelve more races to see if it can get any better than that... woohoo!DaveKillens wrote: ...And this morning, after long reflection, I became aware that this was something I was missing, and never realized was gone. It was the pure joy of the sport, the blissful enjoyment of watching racing. Just watching the racing, the brave young people showing off and having fun.
Back when I practically had my mailing address as the nearest race track, the numerous friends I acquired at the tracks all had a deep love of motorsport, and it showed. Times have changed, and for whatever reason I have been exposed to just too much hatred and anger, just a lot of negative emotions I hoped wasn't part of motorsport.
Maybe that crap isn't really manifested at the tracks, maybe it's just a result of the internet.
I don't know, but I'd rather go back to my roots, and hang around some small track and watch kids kart rather than spectate a Grand Prix and be exposed to people who somehow forgot the joy of motor racing and would rather argue and defend in the most obnoxious manner their favorite driver.
Just a few days ago I witnessed one of the most amazing races I have ever experienced, one that definitely will be talked about and remembered for a very long time. It was also the career-defining drive for Jenson Button, what he accomplished was truly amazing and great. Yet in the last few days all I have experienced and witnessed was hatred and anger and the almost complete lack of enjoyment and happiness, of the joy of racing.
I'm sure glad this television show aired when it did, to remind me of what's really important, and what's not.
I'm with ya! lolCiro Pabón wrote:Go, Canucks!
