Are we checking? This is a place to take a p*ss out of motorsports.

F1 is not the only motorsport in the world, so go ahead and post your shitposts about WEC or MotoGP or IndyCar or ralley or Polish Speedway or whatever. Even Formula E, I guess. It needs some love, too.

By the way, F2 > F1.

Rules? What rules? Stop inventing. Just don't be a douche. Lemmy.world's sporting conduct applies.

How long can they keep justifying keeping him that car. Compared to what Alonso is doing with it he's looking like an absolute donkey.

Forever. He's the boss's son.

I get that but everyone has their limits. His dad has sunk some proper money into this sport, guessing he would like to see results. All he has to do is look at the points difference between his 2 drivers to see where the problem might be.

Pay to ride drivers have always been part of the sport.

If you have enough money to not see it as an investment, but as an expense to let your son do his hobby there's no need for results. The goal of it all is to keep Lance racing. If it also helps to promote his brand, that's a bonus.
