MODERATORS
99% of the swearing comes in radio messages, which are already delayed and bleeped.
Sulayem talking about the need to respect other cultures is hilarious considering he lost his shit at Hamilton and Vettel for thinking LGBT people are human beings worthy of respect, and at Lando for talking about helping people experiencing mental health issues.
But hey, would it really still be the FIA if the guys at the top weren't pieces of shit?
And is it just me or does MBS's previous incessant bitching about Hamilton (for his views, for him not attending the FIA Gala after AD2021, over his nose stud supposedly being highly dangerous, etc), combined with him now complaining about people who "talk like rappers" and saying "that's them, not us" come across a little like dogwhistle?
He’s an Emirati male boomer. It’s not a dog whistle it’s a bloody fog horn. Dude’s like him are used to see people like Hamilton pick up their trash not lecture to them about tolerance.
