    I don’t know if Russel being called “Osama Bin Russel” the whole season while collecting a grand total of 0 penalty points is funny or sad, to be honest. Feels like the real terrorists of the grid last season were Lawson and Bearman.

      It’s not sad, maybe a bit overused. These millionaires can deal with getting called stupid names.

        I don’t mean that it’s sad for his sake, I mean that it’s sad in the sense that it shows how people just adopt an opinion and then stick to it regardless of whether or not it matches the events that are actually transpiring in front of them.

          I don’t know if they actually have that opinion. I make memes about stuff I don’t believe in if I get a chuckle at the expense of a F1 celebrity. Surely I’m not alone.
