I have to give some credit to Liberty Media, they tend to get people who are at least able to give a fuller picture: www.formula1.com/en/latest/ar...

This isn’t as good as it could be, but at least it talks about Lewis as a human being, which is EASY TO DO; he is very open about his feelings

It's extremely noticeable. People can't just admit that Hamilton is one of the greatest, if not *the* greatest, drivers of all time, but will find any excuse to not give him the credit he deserves.

It’s really unfortunate that a lot of the people who cover sports don’t understand the athletes they cover AT ALL Like, they don’t understand them as human beings and this is essential IMO

YUP And they’ll note it, but it’s always downplayed! Like oh yeah, of course, Lewis is good at managing tires. So is Max. Literally they said that on The Race podcast 😂

When Max is praised, people are always falling all over themselves to credit him, not just the car.

When Lewis was winning, it was all the car, right?

I hope everyone is paying close attention to the way people STILL talk about Lewis vs. other drivers.

Oscar was owed the P3 last year in Silverstone, you’ll still hear this, but Lewis got “lucky” to get the P1 this year because McLaren screwed up their strategy.

Is it that many? Honestly I disagree with that. Tbh, I think it only counts as giving up a win when it’s VERY clear cut, like Ferrari with Charles in 2022 in Monaco. Otherwise there are too many variables. You can’t say for sure that you would have won.

When they said Mercedes double stack, I think I had a heart attack. 3.1 and 3.3 is not as bad as it could have been though so I guess good job?

Why did McLaren fuck Oscar so badly though? Or did he not want to come in?

Worse yet, I think maybe they personally have engaged with it, but might feel like their audience isn’t ready for that maybe? But they’ve been doing the show for like 6 years and now and I’m like… what are you waiting for?

Exactly! I listen to this one podcast about Christian Nationalism that’s by two exvangelicals. A white guy and an Asian-American guy. They always make the caveat, but it just starts to sound very tired and exactly as you say; it’s like they haven’t fully engaged with it 😔

Yeah, I feel super uncomfortable when people talk about this. Even when they make the caveat about many people never having experienced it here, it just feels so empty

Straight White American Jesus talks about this stuff all the time also. They haven’t talked about Tanton though; if it’s really him behind the NAR and all the rest of it, then you should go on their show sometime :)

What’s the proof of that? I don’t disbelieve it offhand, I just need to see concrete evidence.
