My facts are straight. You simply don’t want to believe it because then you’d have to admit everything being spun to you in the media isn’t true and walls would come crumbling down. I’ve heard of similar incidents around NY with blacks and whites. The media only live for stories that play to the poor black man victim narrative.
It took CNN Around 5 days to report one article on Cannon Hinnant and when they did they mentioned nothing about the perpetrators skin colour as they always do when its a white man. Do you think it would have been 5 days had a white man shot a black kid in his back yard? No, it would have been on the landing page, main evening news quicker than your fart dissipates.
The police aren’t racist, the media are. They want to pit blacks against whites, painting whites as the bad men and blacks as the victims. The purpose of which is to cause division.

there is no point. I suggest adding some folks to the ignore list like i do. and it helps not having to deal with certain things.
Its one thing to have a disagreement over protocol and quite another to be espousing pseduo white nationalistic rhetoric.
So why bother trying to have a dialogue with someone who clearly subscribes to those views and alternate facts.
I for one, don't need that aggravation, so let them be free to post what they want and thankfully you don't have to see it.you can't argue with results.

I dunno. It's not like they are going to do a mea culpa and bring him back.
Arrivabene was more of a steward of the team than integral to any particular direction, but sometimes that is a wiser way to manage a big team like Ferrari.
And even on his worst days, they were fighting for wins and podiums.
Trust your managers, think more broadly about all departments and most importantly...don't try and friggin cheat (at least in not such a blatant matter)
This season, and going all the way back to the decision to spike theri engines has been an unmitigated disaster for Ferrari, no two ways about it.
Arrivabene was fired for not being able to win aWDC or WCC, meanwhile Binotto is still employed with a car that, in race trim, is barely ahead of a williams.
Lets not forget that Binotto was instrumental in ousting Arrivabene, and actively looking to take command of the team, and he has presided over a steep and steady decline.
He has installed "his people" in place and this is the end result.
To be honest, I'm surprised he wasn't sacked right after Mugello. Perhaps in due part to nobody willing to take over and be accounted as leading the team during this wretched season,knowing full well that no matter what. Ferrari will probably clean house at season's end.
I don't expect Binotto back for 2021.
This will give the new principal time to sort out the mess and get them ready for 2022.you can't argue with results.

It is interesting how a small comment by Hamilton about the Redbull pair of drivers resulted in an improved performance on the Albon side of the garage. At these last two races, we see confirmation that Redbull have such exellent drivers in their stable with limited availbility of senior drive to go round them.

I am sure it was a coincidence that Hamilton comments about Verstapenn not having a wingman to assist him in effectively taking the fight to Mercedes was followed by strong showing by Albon. A comment that Redbull reacted to aggressively by pointing out the fact that Hamilton was responsible for depriving Albon well deserved podium places. Albon himself showed signs of feeling critisized.
The following races after Hamilton's comment, Albon qualified 6th and then 4th, and secured a podium position. I think Hamilton's comment was just what Albon and his engineers needed to hear.
By the way Vettel and Ferrari are a lost cause this season.Last edited by Nitrodaze; 18th September 2020 at 14:16.

He drasticaly improved last couple of rallies for that. Remember that, he beat Evans many times before by smallest margins.
