Totally an overstatement.

I wanted Hamilton also. But I learned long ago to not get over invested in a team or an athlete.
That last lap was unbelievably exciting. That's what F1 wants.
I can't wait for the 2022 revenge tour.

Not super invested. As a casual fan you’ll never watch again after that. -- nm - MDH Dec 12, 06:41 6
- Why wouldn’t you? If you are a casual fan, you don’t know any of the behind the scenes stuff. As a casual fan, it was exciting. - Volnelk Dec 12, 06:44 5
  - The issue F1 has compared to basically every sport is decisions have to be made in seconds while w everything is in motion and then communicated. - Volnelk Dec 12, 06:47 2
    - Meh, every other sport makes instant calls. These guys (and NASCAR) get time and still are inconsistent. -- nm - Will Hunting Dec 12, 08:26
    - Then you restart without unlapping like they decided to, until Red Bull phones -- nm - MDH Dec 12, 06:48
  - The casual fan doesn’t like when officials determine the outcome. When the officials say we are giving you the win people know. -- nm - MDH Dec 12, 06:45 1
    - You are assuming the casual fan knows that. For me, by definition, they just watch the race. -- nm - Volnelk Dec 12, 06:48
