Do you recall these dreams, the dreams you are wandering around at the grid just minutes before the start. You can smell the rubber; you feel the roaring of the V10s and V12s in your stomach. Becoming partly deaf due to the high BPM’s you share after the race a smoke and a beer with James Hunt who just crashed with his Hesketh in Monaco. Only to leave the party to have a chat with Niki Lauda as your looking for lifetime cheap tickets with Lauda air to fly to the non-championship races. The championship where young talent and the not so talented drivers become Formula One drivers. Probably better races to watch. Until the alarm clocks wakes you up at six in the morning. Only to realise that the Formula One became a “German synchronized” porn movie.
It’s the actual dream I had last night and got ruined due to the freakin’ alarm clock. It took me a while, though I finally thanks to the dream could say what’s happened with the Formula One. It became like a German synchronized porn movie. For those who have German channels have you ever watched on ARD or WDR Die Hard or Rambo, any single line is synchronized. Even a far would be synchronized if it sounds too much not German. There are simply no better words to express the situation and the mass we as fans of the sport came into.
You might disagree with my opinion, and that’s fine because times are changing for the worst. You probably don’t know better as due to your age you joined later. Perhaps you only discovered the Formula One recently which is fine as well. However, how the sport is today wasn’t twenty years ago. The mess, the DRS, the joke that’s called Hybrid V6 turbo vacuum cleaner engines. Why is it that hard to design V10 engines that run on Synthetic fuels or just on ethanol? Who needs Turbo engines if you can have V10 engines? There is a reason the historic races gain fame in favour of Formula One.
Like in a terrible German synchronized porn movie the sport is lacking personalities we used to have only a few years ago. Most of the drivers became pure PR machines failing to bring in their own opinions. Sadly, the sport felt in love with blood money. A complaint I used a billion times and probably bores you to dead is Spa. During the 2021 Belgian Grand Prix, right in the Covid-19 period, the race was cancelled due to rain. Yes, it might have been risky, day dreaming about the monsoon tyres, just give it a chance. The drivers get payed for it and we pay for our subscriptions. Sure, you will disagree with this.
While the rain is a huge threat in the Formula One it seems that rockets some random rebels shoot at the track in Jeddah don’t bother the Formula One at all. Everyone just happily continued that weekend. First the qualification then on Sunday just the race. Some drivers did say I won’t race. Sadly all of them became spineless.
Anyway, what bothers me the most is the fans! They became too radical, too selfish, and disrespectful towards each other. It seems that their view of the world is the correct one. Remember that moron burning a Mercedes cap during the 2022 Austrian Grand Prix? I called these fans affectionately Pathetic Assholes previously. It says all about what’s wrong with the sport. I don’t even blame Drive to Survive for it. As I understand the huge potential behind it. It’s just those radicalized fans.
Perhaps those German synchronized porn movies aren’t that bad at all! I know i’m an annoying millennial.
