F1: How boring is Formula One?

The Abu Dhabi race incident in 2021 was a disaster for F1. 

Lewis Hamilton and Max Verstappen, equal on points on this last race of the season, and a decider for the championship.

In the final laps Lewis was winning the race easily, pulling away from Max, and then Latifi crashed.

The Wikipedia page dismisses this incident.

Sadly racism exists in F1.

Lewis Hamilton should have won the F1 World Championship as a rookie in his first season in F1 back in 2007.

But Lewis didn't win the F1 World Championship in his rookie year because of Max Mosley and Bernie Ecclestone.

Read the article here about Lewis being the GOAT to understand a little more.

Max Mosley was a deep rooted fascist, and President of the FIA at the time that Lewis entered Formula One (F1).

Verstappen is a brilliant driver. Perhaps a bit edgy and pushing the boundaries of what is fair, but a brilliant F1 champion all the same.

If Verstappen was in Hamilton's seat at McLaren back in 2007, he would have been allowed to win the F1 world championship, because he is a white boy.

But Lewis Hamilton's entry in to F1 in 2007 was destroyed by fascists in F1.

Mosley and Ecclestone, and sadly Verstappen's future father-in-law, are all blatently racist, and this certainly benefits Max Verstappen.

For me the sadest thing is that I do not watch F1 now, after being a devoted F1 fan for more than 40 years.

I was at Silverstone in 1992 when Nigel Mansell won, and at Silverstone in 2021 when Lewis beat Verstappen (and Red Bull cried).  

Despite all this there are some great performances, especially Fernando Alonso, who is a superstar in his own right.
