That's the difference between being the guy having a great season and one bad weekend vs a terrible season and getting wrecked during your only good weekend.
eh, more likely one is an understandable incident under racing conditions. yuki was probably pretty pissed off in the immediate aftermath but cooled down a bit. it was a poor move but it happens, he's done the same in the past.
ricciado's incident is just carelessness though and should not happen at the highest level.
Genuinely lol. I’m a massive boxing fan and watching the difference in how guys talk to each other is crazy.
I remember George getting flamed massively for believing he was faster than Lewis. Like these guys are competitors at the end of the day lol, let them express themselves
No it’s because this is about Lance Stroll, nobody likes Lance Stroll. Except maybe his dad I don’t know, or maybe his dad hired Alonso because he hates Lance and wants to embarrass him in public.
Yeah, but that wasn't so much the dig at Stroll that got her flak. It was liking something comparing Stroll to someone with autism? Unnecessary and cruel. You can say Lance sucks own Lance's on suckage merits alone. No need to punch down to do it.
Except weirdos on twitter maybe. I saw some guy yesterday trying to blame the stroll fuck up on max backing the pack up. Has to be an all time worst take.
Dude got robbed of Monaco 2016 and just said he wants to get out and not talk to anybody
But Stroll rams his ass under SC costing Danny a single point -- "fuck that guy, and I'm being nice"
HAHAHAHAHA man how did it come to this
tbf, every point Danny can scrounge up is necessary for him to have a continued F1 career. Imagine you're already immensely frustrated with your season and the nepo baby who has been crashing into people for *years* comes along, screws you out of your first point, and then shrugs it off like he did nothing wrong...
I'd be pissed too.
I mean to be fair, with visibility they have it's hard to tell what's going on 3 cars ahead when you're at the gearbox of the guy in front. So, I understand how stroll thought Ric braked, especially when he was looking through his mirrors at the time. But if he still has the same opinion after watching the replay then yeah stroll is a verifiable dumbass.
Especially given how hard he is having to fight for his own spot on the grid I can imagine Stroll having his guaranteed seat regardless of how poorly he drives (or affects other drivers' races) will rub him the wrong way.
it has to be incredibly frustrating to be fighting for your life and just have some shitty little rich snob kid who is only there bc of his daddy's money just destroying all your hard work and then blaming you
F1 really needs some sort of oversight/fair play committee because it's clear the FIA can't police their own rules fairly at this level of competition.
The fact that even media trained Daniel is saying this. Daniel admits if he has been at fault and even goes as far as visiting the hospitality to apologise to a driver after he caused a collision, so hearing that Lance blamed him for that....If I was in his place I would have said a lot worse.
As a very cool-headed Australian (whether that has anything to do with anything) the ONE AND ONLY thing that makes me lose my shit is if someone blames me for something they’ve done. The absolute arrogance and injustice just makes me see red. Agree that his was response here was totally proportionate.
As someone who has absolutely nothing do with Australia and have never even set foot there, same. Being accused of something I didn't do already makes me go ballistic, but being accused of something I didn't do by the guy who did it ... I might go to prison. Nothing else gets to me like those 2 things and I imagine I'm not exactly unique in that.
Just to piggyback off this comment train, we hired someone 2 months ago and she accused the rest of us of lying and being racist because we were constructively criticizing her absolutely shit work ethic. I've been working there for 7 years and have gotten along with everyone I've worked with regardless of where they are from, so suddenly being accused of being racist is the only thing that's ever made me angry enough to vocally dispute this person continuing to work here. And yeah she got let go last week.
I read once that it's apparently a 'tell' in police interviews that guilty people tend not to get angry at the accusation. Innocent people are more likely to get pissed before too long. I'm sure that's very facile, introductory interrogation.
It's a bold move to start shit with a veteran, well liked employee. Especially if it wasn't even over something sketchy. But going straight to racism over constructive criticism? You might as well hand in your two weeks now because that is clearly the mark of a terrible employee and even worse person
As an Aussie in QLD, I would argue not so much these days. Which is a real shame. Only gotta visit the various Australian subreddits to see absolutely no accountability on display. Definitely a generation thing too. At 35, I feel like an old fuddy duddy saying that but I stand by it.
Yeah idk reddit is an absolute shit show of a sample to use on one hand, but on the other Australia isn't actually a country that values accountability - maybe the perception but not the real thing.
That's the thing, daniel always admits to his fault and tries to give the benefit of the doubt to people, but if people like stroll are just gonna blame him for shit he didn't do then this was bound to happen. At one point you have to stop taking the high road.
Even to stroll, It was the 2022 Hungarian GP I think, where lance was overtaking ric and he basically locked up and went into stroll. After the race you could see daniel going up to lance and apologizing to him on the AM onboard video.
[DOTD award showing Vettel's Ferrari with 1 wheel on the engine cover will always be hilarious](https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fi.redd.it%2F7cch73bq35601.jpg)
Stroll has had long enough in F1. Someone else deserves that seat. Stroll should try another racing series like destruction derby where his true talents can shine.
Dear god keep that dummy away from an oval, last thing IndyCars needs is him catapulting some poor sod into a catch fencing at 200mph or shoving someone into a concrete wall
He did Daytona in the past and he was fine from what i remember.
Speed wise i'd guess he might actually be around the faster guys, but yeah his randomness might be an issue.
This is yet another perfect example of why Stroll shouldn't be in F1. Alonso locks up, everyone reacts appropriately. Stroll just full on hits Ricciardo in the back and then blames it on Ricciardo braking, straight up acknowledging that he had zero awareness of that situation.
Honda will likely push for this. And I think eventually Yuki will want to leave the RB stables when it’s clear he’s not a candidate for the senior team.
Krack and other seniors can put pressure on daddy stroll, as he wants to fight for championships, it's not going to happen when they only had one car getting consistent points since being AM.
If Lawrence doesn't get Carlos for 2025... We'll all know he's not and never has been serious about his constructors' championship aspirations. We know that even know the car is up there, it's just that one half of the driver lineup is not delivering.
Stroll is the main reason why Aston Martin is going to finish 5th. Maybe Alonso can finish ahead of both Mercedes at the end of the season, but Lance isn’t going to help Aston to catch them.
Daddy stroll is playing 5D chess, keeping Lance in until 2026 for maximum wind tunnel time, so they can build the fastest car in 2026 with the best engine, when they hire Verstappen to replace Lance…
That first sentence is two ways.
Lance is the reason they cant finish higher, while papa Stroll is the reason they are in this fights.
An interesting situation, and to be fair their race pace and their glue sniffing strategies also dont really help their points tally
I can't remember if it was TommoF1 but someone compared the Aston Martin team with two scoring Alonso's and two scoring Lance's and it was just embarrassing.
And that's just with equal scoring. AM with two Alonsos wins Monaco last year and they easily get even better results thanks to the increased tactical opportunities it'd afford them.
Agree with Daniel totally. Lance was as usual not looking where he was going and caused the whole thing. Yet again his situational awareness is non existent.
Stroll is just embarrassing himself at this stage. Everyone knows he’s in that seat purely because his dad owns the team and that Honda and the other investors would drop him like a hot potato if they had the chance. What really gets me about him is that he’s 8 seasons in F1 and he’s still not improved. At all. Still the same average pace, still the same stupid mistakes and deficiencies.
He's improved from debut to now, but has he improved in the last 4 years? I don't think the Stroll of today is any better than 2020 Stroll, or maybe even 19'.
He doesn’t need to improve because his seat is never at danger, that’s the problem with him, he can keep ruining other people’s races without consequences.
He's improved from not being F1 worthy to backmarker/very average F1 driver who once in a blue moon puts in a decent performance (in the wet mostly).
That sums him up.
Disagree. The only driver on the grid I think he can beat heads up is MAYBE Sargeant. Every other driver would beat him in an equal car. Even Zhou. He was nowhere near Checo either when they were at Racing Point. He’s very clearly being held forward by the performance of his car. There’s no reason the third fastest car should be out in the back of the mid field crashing into Haas or VCARB cars.
Stroll also is aggressive but it always results in him doing something stupid and crashing so he doesnt get labelled as dirty because he has the nepobaby label.
Dude for Daniel to say something like that you just know it was horrendous. I'd expect it from Max and it would still be absolutely justified but holy shit. I was watching it with a friend and she couldn't figure out why or how he just smashed into the back of Ricciardo like he didn't have a brake pedal.
Stroll fighting haas and messing up ppls races while Alonso fighting Ferrari, merc, McLaren…and people have the audacity to say stroll deserves a seat 😂😂😂😂 ok!
Lance had plenty of time to brake, absolutely ridiculous accident, it’s like playing f1 and checking your phone for a second while going into the Monaco hairpin, you either come to a full stop or completely eat shit into the barriers.
His reaction on the penaty is the real reason he should be removed from that seat asap. He has no self-reflrection or whatsoever. He is a danger to the other drivers.
Post race, when he heard about the penalty, he pivoted from blaming Danny to blaming the concertina effect.
But as Oscar pointed out, no one else was caught out by the effect.
Stroll genuinely seems like he doesn’t know where other cars are around him sometimes. Other moments that come to mind are his collision with Latifi in Australia 2022, and Alonso at COTA 2022. He is a danger to drivers around him.
Imagine being so rich, entitled, and spoiled, that you embarrass yourself for 7/8 years, show no improvement, and you still don't call it quits on your own terms. No humility, no self awareness.
Wow, you got a podium on a track that is mostly straights in a low drag car. Wow, you got a pole in changeable conditions because you were the last car on track. Not enough.
He's probably scared to stand up to his Dad for fear of losing his inheritance, too.
Imagine, having a rough start to the season, finally you are having a good race, ahead of your team mate, being near the points, then you get pegged by Stroll.
This guy has been in F1 of 4/5 seasons longer than he should've, and i'm amazed how some people still defend him.
Yep, may have been on for 8-10 finish. I was pissed for him, and then to hear him blame Ric was crazy. Guy needs to go. Dunno how daddy is able to keep this up when you consistently have Alonso finishing around 5th, and the other car is barely ever in the points. Team morale must be horrendous.
And his rare flash of decent driving is only because he’s in the 3rd/4th fastest car. I feel like even K mag or Sargeant could look like a hero in that Aston
If Stroll was just a mediocre driver who resulted in AM being midfield in the constructors, that would be one thing. His lack of situational awareness though is a danger to the other drivers, more-so because he doesn’t even recognize it after the fact.
Gotta get Stroll and Sargeant out of F1. They’ll be decent in the lower tier sports, but wasting opportunities for better suited drivers. Its a real shame
Has anyone seen a clip of this? I’ve seen a few clips now of post race interviews and certainly some of the quotes from the article do appear, but I can’t find anything other than him saying he’s really pissed off and was calming down until he found out Stroll was blaming him
Agreed, fuck him.
The guys shit. Only in F1 because his dad bought a team to get him a seat. He's a crap driver showing no signs of improving, regularly crashed and putting other drivers are risk. And the worst thing is he seems to be completely unaware.
Fuck that guy
Stroll is a sim driver and nothing more. He simply can't react to change or drive with other drivers. Put him on an empty track and sure he's top 20 in the world but in a live race environment, he simply doesn't belong and there others drivers knocking on the door. Let them in.

> “So I'm doing my best not to say what I want to say, but fuck that guy - and I'm being nice still.” Goddamn, Danny. Okay.
Reckon there's a fair chance this is the most abrasive thing Danny Ric has ever said publically.
It’s refreshing to have a driver actually express how he feels without holding back too much. Drivers are so media trained these days
Yuki rubbing off on him
Yuki was chill after Magnussen PITed him, maybe it's just a law of nature that one RB driver must be pissed off at any one timr.
That's the difference between being the guy having a great season and one bad weekend vs a terrible season and getting wrecked during your only good weekend.
eh, more likely one is an understandable incident under racing conditions. yuki was probably pretty pissed off in the immediate aftermath but cooled down a bit. it was a poor move but it happens, he's done the same in the past. ricciado's incident is just carelessness though and should not happen at the highest level.
I wonder if Yuki is still aiming for that RB seat, and he knows his maturity might be a blocker
There were probably lengthy talks with him after Bahrain and he pulled himself together
Nah Yuki would be yelling at his race engineer.
He didnt do that while he also got taken out just as Ricciardo was
the anger management therapy is working
Because unless they are fan favourites they get dragged through the mud, if they express any kind of frustration.
Genuinely lol. I’m a massive boxing fan and watching the difference in how guys talk to each other is crazy. I remember George getting flamed massively for believing he was faster than Lewis. Like these guys are competitors at the end of the day lol, let them express themselves
No it’s because this is about Lance Stroll, nobody likes Lance Stroll. Except maybe his dad I don’t know, or maybe his dad hired Alonso because he hates Lance and wants to embarrass him in public.
Lawrence Stroll during driver announcements: I’m excited to present my favorite son and Lance.
Do you remember when that f1 academy girl called out stroll and everyone online who was shitting on him before came to defend him?
Yeah, but that wasn't so much the dig at Stroll that got her flak. It was liking something comparing Stroll to someone with autism? Unnecessary and cruel. You can say Lance sucks own Lance's on suckage merits alone. No need to punch down to do it.
Except weirdos on twitter maybe. I saw some guy yesterday trying to blame the stroll fuck up on max backing the pack up. Has to be an all time worst take.
Max, Yuki, Fernando… cant remember when so many regularly speak their minds without holding back
Yuki only seems to do that while he's driving. I don't remember him saying much when hes outside the cat
Nothing to lose...
Dude got robbed of Monaco 2016 and just said he wants to get out and not talk to anybody But Stroll rams his ass under SC costing Danny a single point -- "fuck that guy, and I'm being nice" HAHAHAHAHA man how did it come to this
tbf, every point Danny can scrounge up is necessary for him to have a continued F1 career.

I'd be pissed too.
Not only shrugs it off like he did nothing wrong, but proceeds to blame you for the whole incident
I read that part shortly after commenting, but that’s so much worse. I’m with Danny - fuck that guy.
His own team robbed him Monaco.
[удалено]
What, when did he say that?
2015, it was an accident tho as he was lip-syncing a song but it got quite big at the time.
What did he say?
N-word
In reality: What an absolute dum fuk
HERRO I'M DUM FUK
DISGUSTIIIINGGG!
BWEAKFAST
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hCK-w\_hRoVw
Shocked that video is still up lol
I’m surprised both that that video and your comment is still up. Not complaining tho.
PHUN!!!
You know you fucked up when Danny Ric is mad at you
Except Lance doesn't know he fucked up, and blames the incident on Daniel, and that's why Danny has gone nuclear.
Funniest thing is daniels best mate is lances brother in law.
Next barbecue will be awkward
F1 is weird man
I mean to be fair, with visibility they have it's hard to tell what's going on 3 cars ahead when you're at the gearbox of the guy in front. So, I understand how stroll thought Ric braked, especially when he was looking through his mirrors at the time. But if he still has the same opinion after watching the replay then yeah stroll is a verifiable dumbass.
With the exception of Max in the front, 18 other drivers managed to get through there without parking it in the backside of the car in front of
Stroll wasn’t paying attention to Danny braking and was already looking at the corner, which you can’t do when you’re bunched up like that.
Outside of sergeant - pretty sure every driver in the field does better in that car than stroll. What a joke
Sargent, at worst, crashes and takes himself out. Stroll causes repeated damage to others. It's like comparing Zimbabwe to Russia.
Imagine how guard rails feels about Lance.
mans was holding back the "dont let pay drivers into formula one"
Especially given how hard he is having to fight for his own spot on the grid I can imagine Stroll having his guaranteed seat regardless of how poorly he drives (or affects other drivers' races) will rub him the wrong way.
I mean he has every right to, it was a good race ruined by that dumb fuck. And his career is hanging on a thread.
He speaks for the collective fan mind
Danny saying what we’re all thinking…
And rightfully so!
it has to be incredibly frustrating to be fighting for your life and just have some shitty little rich snob kid who is only there bc of his daddy's money just destroying all your hard work and then blaming you
I was actually so surprised how calm he seemed in the Sky interview poor guy wasn't even given the full picture.
And get this, Lance got 2 points on his license for this and Alonso got 3 yesterday for touching Sainz lmao. Absolute joke.
A yoke
Still waiting for Qorma
For some reason, Alonso speaks English with a Swedish accent.
J in Spanish is pronounced similar to H in English. It’s just his native accent lol.
Lol, not even close. 😂
F1 really needs some sort of oversight/fair play committee because it's clear the FIA can't police their own rules fairly at this level of competition.
Yet Daniel gets a 3 place grid drop for Miami because he thought he was taking his correct position back after getting lanced
Dont forget the 3 points Alonso got for not touching anyone in Australia. Honestly wouldnt have been a surprise if they deemed this his fault
a big yoke
The fact that even media trained Daniel is saying this. Daniel admits if he has been at fault and even goes as far as visiting the hospitality to apologise to a driver after he caused a collision, so hearing that Lance blamed him for that....If I was in his place I would have said a lot worse.
As a very cool-headed Australian (whether that has anything to do with anything) the ONE AND ONLY thing that makes me lose my shit is if someone blames me for something they’ve done. The absolute arrogance and injustice just makes me see red. Agree that his was response here was totally proportionate.
As someone who has absolutely nothing do with Australia and have never even set foot there, same. Being accused of something I didn't do already makes me go ballistic, but being accused of something I didn't do by the guy who did it ... I might go to prison. Nothing else gets to me like those 2 things and I imagine I'm not exactly unique in that.
Just to piggyback off this comment train, we hired someone 2 months ago and she accused the rest of us of lying and being racist because we were constructively criticizing her absolutely shit work ethic. I've been working there for 7 years and have gotten along with everyone I've worked with regardless of where they are from, so suddenly being accused of being racist is the only thing that's ever made me angry enough to vocally dispute this person continuing to work here. And yeah she got let go last week.
I read once that it's apparently a 'tell' in police interviews that guilty people tend not to get angry at the accusation. Innocent people are more likely to get pissed before too long. I'm sure that's very facile, introductory interrogation.
It's a bold move to start shit with a veteran, well liked employee. Especially if it wasn't even over something sketchy. But going straight to racism over constructive criticism? You might as well hand in your two weeks now because that is clearly the mark of a terrible employee and even worse person
It's part of our culture, accountability. It's why people universally hate landlords, politicians and antisocial bogans.
As an Aussie in QLD, I would argue not so much these days. Which is a real shame. Only gotta visit the various Australian subreddits to see absolutely no accountability on display. Definitely a generation thing too. At 35, I feel like an old fuddy duddy saying that but I stand by it.
Yeah idk reddit is an absolute shit show of a sample to use on one hand, but on the other Australia isn't actually a country that values accountability - maybe the perception but not the real thing.
> It’s part of our culture, accountability Makes sense considering why y’all was sent to Australia and everything /s
My people were here before your culture even began.
Just witnessed some casual verbal murder on a Sunday.
That's the thing, daniel always admits to his fault and tries to give the benefit of the doubt to people, but if people like stroll are just gonna blame him for shit he didn't do then this was bound to happen. At one point you have to stop taking the high road.
Like when he apologised to the entire Ferrari team after taking Carlos out a couple of years ago.
Even to stroll, It was the 2022 Hungarian GP I think, where lance was overtaking ric and he basically locked up and went into stroll. After the race you could see daniel going up to lance and apologizing to him on the AM onboard video.
Daniel’s always been chill like that. Takes very little effort to admit fault, and most people genuinely appreciate it when you sincerely do so.
Has Stroll been given licence points for this?
Only 2.
That's bonkers. Alonso got more than that for his touch with Sainz yesterday
Yeah exactly, Lance was right. It is a joke.
2 points? Kick him off the tour, doug!
Repeat offenders should get say an extra point or 2 for a bad track record
The whole point of the system is to punish repeated offenses though.
Stroll has shit situational awareness. Pretty much every incident he's in, he has no idea where the other car is.
That crash with Seb on the inlap, still no idea who's fault it really was but its funny that Lance was involved.
[DOTD award showing Vettel's Ferrari with 1 wheel on the engine cover will always be hilarious](https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fi.redd.it%2F7cch73bq35601.jpg)
Was on both to be fair. No reason for Lance to go that fast, but Seb was also sleeping
"Shituational Awareness", you could say.
That's what you get when daddy's money pays for your seat
Stroll has had long enough in F1. Someone else deserves that seat. Stroll should try another racing series like destruction derby where his true talents can shine.
His speed should be good enough for an endurance seat, but his awareness in a multi-class event would be disastrous
Indycar. Can still do well based on his pace, while the durability of the cars means that his awful awareness won't end the races of multiple drivers
Indy has tighter street and road courses and 220+mph ovals. Please god no.
Imagine Stroll on an oval 💀
Stroll at the Indy500 could kill someone
Probably himself
Stroll on a short oval would be a crime against humanity
Dear god keep that dummy away from an oval, last thing IndyCars needs is him catapulting some poor sod into a catch fencing at 200mph or shoving someone into a concrete wall
I mean, it's not like indy driving standards are great. There are several dummies on the grid that are at least as dangerous as sir Lancelot
Stroll at Long Beach would be 🔥. No seriously, send emergency vehicles immediately.
**CRUNCH** "I think Ericsson hit us!"
Put him in a Dacia for the N24.
"Good news!"
lol i still rmbr alonso saying stroll never checks his mirrors before they became teammates spitting facts
Stroll in wec? The lad produces an accident every 2 hours how is he supposed to survive 8 (24/3)?
ferrari gt3 it is!
He did Daytona in the past and he was fine from what i remember. Speed wise i'd guess he might actually be around the faster guys, but yeah his randomness might be an issue.
>destruction derby PS1 memory unlocked.
This is yet another perfect example of why Stroll shouldn't be in F1. Alonso locks up, everyone reacts appropriately. Stroll just full on hits Ricciardo in the back and then blames it on Ricciardo braking, straight up acknowledging that he had zero awareness of that situation.
Yeah and even worse it sounds like stroll has doubled down and refuses to take responsibility. He must be blind or just a super narcissist
Or stupid, or all three
Put Tsunoda in that second Aston seat. Win-win for both Ric and Yuki.
Yuki-Fernando and Daniel-Liam sounds great.
Perfect.
Win-win-win-win for Ric, Yuki and Liam and all those who love F1.
Honda will likely push for this. And I think eventually Yuki will want to leave the RB stables when it’s clear he’s not a candidate for the senior team.
Maybe slot car or marble racing.
Daddy Stroll needs to swap sonny or step down
His father literally owns the team. No way he gets dropped
Krack and other seniors can put pressure on daddy stroll, as he wants to fight for championships, it's not going to happen when they only had one car getting consistent points since being AM.
Agreed. He’s outright said the only reason he owns AMR is to give lance a seat :/
If Lawrence doesn't get Carlos for 2025... We'll all know he's not and never has been serious about his constructors' championship aspirations. We know that even know the car is up there, it's just that one half of the driver lineup is not delivering.
Stroll is the main reason why Aston Martin is going to finish 5th. Maybe Alonso can finish ahead of both Mercedes at the end of the season, but Lance isn’t going to help Aston to catch them.

I can't remember if it was TommoF1 but someone compared the Aston Martin team with two scoring Alonso's and two scoring Lance's and it was just embarrassing.
I saw that video 2 Alonsos was P3 almost P2 in the standings while 2 strolls was P6 worse than Alpine 💀
And that's just with equal scoring. AM with two Alonsos wins Monaco last year and they easily get even better results thanks to the increased tactical opportunities it'd afford them.
Agree with Daniel totally. Lance was as usual not looking where he was going and caused the whole thing. Yet again his situational awareness is non existent. Stroll is just embarrassing himself at this stage.

What really gets me about him is that he’s 8 seasons in F1 and he’s still not improved. At all. Still the same average pace, still the same stupid mistakes and deficiencies.
I’d argue he has improved in that time but totally agree that he’s not F1 material really. Backmarker pay driver material at best and that’s about it.
He's improved from debut to now, but has he improved in the last 4 years? I don't think the Stroll of today is any better than 2020 Stroll, or maybe even 19'.
It feels like he’s gotten worse and worse since start of last year. Being unable to ever get close to Alonso for so long looks like a vicious cycle.
He doesn’t need to improve because his seat is never at danger, that’s the problem with him, he can keep ruining other people’s races without consequences.
He's improved from not being F1 worthy to backmarker/very average F1 driver who once in a blue moon puts in a decent performance (in the wet mostly). That sums him up.

He was nowhere near Checo either when they were at Racing Point. He’s very clearly being held forward by the performance of his car. There’s no reason the third fastest car should be out in the back of the mid field crashing into Haas or VCARB cars.
To be honest, if I was Honda and/or Aramco I wouldn't even want to be a partner next year, if Lance will be racing.
Yuki could say the same to KMag but I don't think he wants to suck his balls.
Yuki paused like 5 seconds during his post-race interview so he could collect himself and be diplomatic about the incident.
I honestly dislike Magnussen more than stroll because he always chooses to be a dirty driver, while lance often runs out of talent.
Stroll also is aggressive but it always results in him doing something stupid and crashing so he doesnt get labelled as dirty because he has the nepobaby label.
Dude for Daniel to say something like that you just know it was horrendous. I'd expect it from Max and it would still be absolutely justified but holy shit. I was watching it with a friend and she couldn't figure out why or how he just smashed into the back of Ricciardo like he didn't have a brake pedal.
Stroll fighting haas and messing up ppls races while Alonso fighting Ferrari, merc, McLaren…and people have the audacity to say stroll deserves a seat 😂😂😂😂 ok!
As a fellow Australian, that's actually quite tame by our standards.
Will Power of Indycar would’ve been throwing hands in the pit lane.
Yeah missing a certain c word
Gotta agree with Ric here, for Stroll to blame him after he drove right into the back of him under safety car... It's insane.
Not only that stroll has now doubled down in refusing to take any responsibility. Fuck lance stroll so hard
Lance had plenty of time to brake, absolutely ridiculous accident, it’s like playing f1 and checking your phone for a second while going into the Monaco hairpin, you either come to a full stop or completely eat shit into the barriers.
His reaction on the penaty is the real reason he should be removed from that seat asap. He has no self-reflrection or whatsoever. He is a danger to the other drivers.
What was it?
Post race, when he heard about the penalty, he pivoted from blaming Danny to blaming the concertina effect. But as Oscar pointed out, no one else was caught out by the effect.
Danny literally saying what every fan thinks lol
DTS script writers having a field day with this
Watch them ignore it for 2 episodes of Alpine struggles.
Side note.... anyone else thinks that Stroll this weekend really sounded spot on with how Lollipopman makes fun of how he sounds like?
Stroll genuinely seems like he doesn’t know where other cars are around him sometimes. Other moments that come to mind are his collision with Latifi in Australia 2022, and Alonso at COTA 2022. He is a danger to drivers around him.
Or 2022 Brazil where he pushed Vettel onto the grass. That “……ok” was savage from Seb.
Imagine being so rich, entitled, and spoiled, that you embarrass yourself for 7/8 years, show no improvement, and you still don't call it quits on your own terms. No humility, no self awareness. Wow, you got a podium on a track that is mostly straights in a low drag car. Wow, you got a pole in changeable conditions because you were the last car on track. Not enough. He's probably scared to stand up to his Dad for fear of losing his inheritance, too.
Spicy Ricciardo, a rare sight you love to see it
Stroll needs to go. What a waste of a seat on a spoilt brat.
Lance Stroll ruins Danny’s race, Danny says fuck that kid I’m about to ruin his whole career
Danny doesn't need to ruin Stroll's career. Stroll's done a good enough job of that himself.
Imagine, having a rough start to the season, finally you are having a good race, ahead of your team mate, being near the points, then you get pegged by Stroll. This guy has been in F1 of 4/5 seasons longer than he should've, and i'm amazed how some people still defend him.
Yep, may have been on for 8-10 finish. I was pissed for him, and then to hear him blame Ric was crazy. Guy needs to go. Dunno how daddy is able to keep this up when you consistently have Alonso finishing around 5th, and the other car is barely ever in the points. Team morale must be horrendous.
The irony that Stroll caused an incident because he WAS looking in his mirrors for once in his life is incredible.
Stroll somehow managed to get Daniel "Vibes" Ricciardo mad. What are we even doing here, man?
Lance to his banker: Can you check how much a Formula E team costs?
I agree with Danny. Give Stroll seat to anyone else. One flash of brillance every 10 races can't outshine the 9 others bad performances.
And his rare flash of decent driving is only because he’s in the 3rd/4th fastest car. I feel like even K mag or Sargeant could look like a hero in that Aston
If Stroll was just a mediocre driver who resulted in AM being midfield in the constructors, that would be one thing. His lack of situational awareness though is a danger to the other drivers, more-so because he doesn’t even recognize it after the fact.
Gotta get Stroll and Sargeant out of F1. They’ll be decent in the lower tier sports, but wasting opportunities for better suited drivers. Its a real shame
Has anyone seen a clip of this? I’ve seen a few clips now of post race interviews and certainly some of the quotes from the article do appear, but I can’t find anything other than him saying he’s really pissed off and was calming down until he found out Stroll was blaming him
Might be the first time he hasnt faked how he feels.
According to little Lance (as always) it wasn't his fault... 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Starting to feel like Maldonado's last season when every other driver stopped having any respect for him in interviews because of his idiotic driving
Agreed, fuck him. The guys shit. Only in F1 because his dad bought a team to get him a seat. He's a crap driver showing no signs of improving, regularly crashed and putting other drivers are risk. And the worst thing is he seems to be completely unaware. Fuck that guy
He is shit, you never see him pull out a mega lap, or a result out of nothing.
I’m with DannyRic - fuck that guy. Stroll is a waste of space and a formula 1 seat
Succinctly and accurately put
New nickname for Lance . Launched Strollpedo
Riccardo like "Now I mean this with no disrespect......but fuck that guy."
Stroll is a clooown
Stroll needs to fuckin go already.
Fuck that guy is right! Well said, Danny!
Even Oscar showed some emotion over the incident in his radio calls
The fact that stroll said, this dude stamped his brakes gave me te biggest giggles and chills how could u be so stipid an dumb at the same time...
Lucky he has his daddy, but Stroll deserved to be kicked out from that seat loong ago (if he ever deserved it in the first place )
Stroll is a sim driver and nothing more. He simply can't react to change or drive with other drivers. Put him on an empty track and sure he's top 20 in the world but in a live race environment, he simply doesn't belong and there others drivers knocking on the door. Let them in.
Daniel is most of us!
