F1 makes no fucking sense to me. In the overall standings, Verstappen leads -- the 2nd place guy is Lando Norris.

Today, Norris' team had a 1-2 locked up but they ordered Lando to give up his lead to his teammate.

Mind you, Verstappen was well behind so they actually ordered the 2nd place overall person to give up 7 more points so that their 2nd driver could get his first win ever.

So, here's your gift win....
here's your lesser overall position....

Great fucking job -- make it make sense.

Are you supposed to celebrate and spray champagne when you win that way? I'd be embarrassed. -- nm - Mop🧹 Jul 21, 10:21

- Piastri led the race from the beginning. Norris only got the lead because of the way that McLaren had them pit. - Volnelk 🍊 Jul 21, 10:13 2
  - Stop gifting that assclown Verstappen titles. I hope Norris loses by 6. - Will Hunting Jul 21, 10:40 1
