Like, he was struggling before Monaco, but now everyone seems to have collectively decided that he's done. i would say he has been underwhelming at McLaren in general. whatever the reason is the one thing that is certain is the pressure he is under now.

Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted June 4, 2022 Subscriber Share Posted June 4, 2022 It isn't sudden. It's been gradually building for basically all of his time at Mclaren where Norris has quite easily had the measure of him. He got a lot of benefit of the doubt last year as people said fairly enough that the new cars would give him a chance for a reset and take away Lando's advantage of being more used to the old-era Mclaren car but things have pretty much carried on the way they were and Lando's two most recent spankings of Daniel in Spain and Monaco in light of his bout of tonsillitis have really triggered the latest chapter of the conversation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there is a driver who is gay and makes it to F1, fine. I would however object to flagrant attempts at tokenism to push "the message". Its about driving ability, not sexual orientation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panflute Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 After watching some F1 content on YouTube I immediately get recommended these awful clickbait videos like 'Horner's SECRET message to Toto Wolff'. What a dreadful little world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panflute Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 So far this is the most balanced analysis I've read in regard to the FIA directive. It's in Dutch, but maybe Google Translate will make the main points of the article understandable. https://nl.motorsport.com/f1/news/waarom-porpoising-ingreep-fia-niet-per-se-goed-hoeft-te-zijn-voor-mercedes/10323257/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not a 100% sure. But as far as I know, it's more of a Gentleman's agreement between teams, and not a written down rule. Ferrari for example still talk Italian to their drivers in post-race radios sometimes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator Tommy Posted June 25, 2022 Moderator Share Posted June 25, 2022 I never knew that he lived in Germany. From his Wikipedia: Quote Pérez moved to Europe in 2005 to compete in the German Formula BMW ADAC series. He was allowed to live in a restaurant owned by his team manager for four months. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
