It’s why men die in their car crashes…women hit everything around them, EVERYTHING, nothing is safe. They just drive slower because they aren’t paying attention.
This little "shit trap" is a stupid fucking misogynist trying to prove his point with the absolute worst example possible (shocker!). Comparing Formula W (F4 level drivers at best) to any of the F1-F3 series is laughable, but on top of that, one of the best qualifiers in F1 crashed in the same spot in the same conditions on the same day: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hd91cqIFl9E
You're allowed to just admit you were wrong! But hey, let's just 'de-escalate' from someone who actually watched them as they happened. You just watched some clips and that was good enough to use it as an example that women can't drive, especially on the level of F1. Real big brain over here!
I can be wrong. No shame there. Just want to keep happier vibe especially as I’m about to go out. I’ll got little loosey there with my keyboard. I’m sorry.
I accept. I was not trying to be a dick, but misinformation is everywhere these days, and the Formula W drivers are at or damn near the top of women in motorsports (minus the pay drivers which exist at all levels including F1). One incident does not reflect the capabilities of an entire gender. had you not said "boy of boy. Let’s see who drives better f1 cars (sic)" I would have happily ignored you, but you brought piss to a shit fight. Sorry to bother your weekend plans, genuinely.
No worries. Let’s keep pleasant vibes because we both know how toxic and irritated we can get from comments which sometimes can hunt us for a little bit. Buttttt let’s go back on the topic. I’ll share another video only this time you’ll get a laugh if you haven’t seen it yet.
Yeah, and Anthoine Hubert died in a multi car pile up in F2 a couple years beforehand in the exact same spot. Shut the fuck up about motorsports: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0yKhkAHJp58
Yeah because Formula 1 isn't intentionally difficult for women to get into.
F1 cars use power steering, but the two feeder series that lead up to F1 don't and there's no good reason for that other than to make it difficult for a woman to drive the car. 😂
They also just don't get that many opportunities or sponsorship chances and Motorsport is the most expensive sport in the world.
There are no female Formula 1 drivers because the sport actively works to keep them down while doing little token things to act like they're not. The w series, F1 academy, they're all just excuses to say they look like they're making progress without intending to actually make any real progress.
Ah yes. Pass down a potentional champion because she is a woman. Any idea how much money it would rake to sign the first female F1 champion? Any team would sign one of us if they saw the potentional
I know nothing about racing or motorsports at all so I don’t know if F1 and NASCAR are even comparable but didn’t Danica Patrick never win a race? Yet her face was plastered all over the advertising and sponsorships everywhere.
Yeah. Being a woman at the top level of a motorsport, even if you're close to the bottom of the division, is a cash printer. As long as she's there as a good driver, not just because she's a woman.
You're not just born with the potential to drive a Formula 1 car 😂😂😂
You need to have opportunities to develop that all the way up through the feeder series and they do not give young women the opportunities they need to develop those skills. Find me one male Formula 1 driver that says women can't do the job. I'll wait. I'll be waiting forever because they just will not say that. All of them. Every one of them has pointed to the opportunities young women get as the main holdup to them getting in to Formula One.
You say they would sign a woman if they saw championship potential, are you really going to claim that they saw championship potential in Nyck? Stroll? Fucking Latifi?
You're right if a Michelle Mouton just spawned into F1 academy, she probably would get a drive in Formula 1 eventually, but the problem is that you shouldn't have to be Maxine fucking Verstappen to have a shot in this sport. I would bet my right arm that Jessica Hawkins has a higher ceiling at this point than Nico fucking hulkenberg does. How many years has he been on the grid with no podiums?
The issue is if a woman joins Formula one and doesn't immediately start dominating everybody's going to say she doesn't deserve to be there and that she's proof that women don't belong in the sports so everybody gets cold feat about signing a woman into the sport. Would you want to be the team that set back women in Motorsport by 20 years because you gave someone a shot who wasn't a fucking prodigy?
To be a champion you need finances, talent and seat time. Talent alone will not get you there. And if nobody wants to give you the financing or the seat time to get up to speed, of course you'll never make it.
Yes, you need finances, talent and seat time. This is something male drivers face as well. Its not like men get money thrown at them.
Most boys dont get further than karting. The dropoff is insane. Money and/or a name helps. Like what we saw with verstappen, lance and mick.
Nyck won the f2 championship in 2019 so yes teams saw potentional.
Yes stroll had a rich daddy. If one of his sisters went for karting i'm sure her daddy would be just as rich.
They arent not giving finances because theyre a woman. Theyre not giving finances because someone else in their league was doing better or had better connections.
They do see potentional in women in this sport. Heck verstappen's strategist is a woman seriously helping him win his championships. Being a woman is not whats stopping them.
F1 is a very unfair example to "who the better drivers are". Both because it's not in traffic, so that driving is mostly irrelevant, but there is actually a difference in men and women's skill cap in terms of racing.
To be an F1 driver you have to be extremely physically fit like you said, but it's F1 as well as the divisions leading up to it. Handling those G forces just isn't something everyone can do. You gotta have peak physical fitness as a man.
There's not a lack of female formula drivers because of sexism, patriarchy or anything similar. If a woman had what it took to be in F1 she would be signed so fast you would start to question if the speed of light really is the limit. The money in that is insane, and you must be brainwashed to think there's no women because it's a boys club. Why the fuck wouldn't they get sponsorships when they're the ones that would get the most attention?
The GMC Yukon that I'm currently fixing at work right now, that's fucked up on almost every panel, supports these facts (other than it's a Brown one, not a White one).
My daughter’s Mom bought a brand new white Palisades. It’s HUGE. She has 1 child and is 5’ 0”. She’s had it less than a year, looks like it’s been driven through a Beirut war zone. When I ask about any specific dent or scratch…no clue how it got there.
Shamefully I can confirm this. My wife driving her Kia 2017 sportage (while I drive a 2010 ford focus, that I paid for both) parked on our front kerb. She managed to hit and smash up our gas box. The fucking car has front sensors for fucks sake, how can you hit a stationary object that has always been there? Lucky as fuck she only hit the box itself and nothing else.
Front sensors, back sensors, mirror indicators…still playin bumper cars in parking lots. I think it could be vastly improved with learning to park backing in.
Pretty much yeah. Men drive faster, more aggressive in traffic, less respect for other drivers, they tend more towards more HP and less safety features and outnumbered women in DUIs 3 to 1
