    Wow, you must be new to multinational corporate governance.

    This was not an FIA/F1 issue.

    A lot of money and LARGE corporations are involved in F1. This screams that someone who stands to lose a lot due to the dominance of Red Bull trying to find anything they can to break that team down. You cannot come off a season like they just had and not expect someone to try and take another approach to beating them. What better way than removing the person who makes it all work. These are people and forces that are titans of industry. They play by a different rule book and work with funds that could topple the majority of the nations F1 performs in. Much more at play in this circumstance.

    I would not call her ugly but she is not what I would consider attractive either. Successful? 20 years behind the wheel with one fuel mileage win in 2008? I mean if she had a dick would you be defending her as successful? I dislike her because I think she was a failure as a driver, provides zero incite as a commentator and only has a job because she is a female in a mostly male dominated arena of motorsports. Had she been born a male I doubt anyone would know who Danica Patrick is. That is why I dislike her. I prefer positions be awarded for merit.

    What annoyed me is that she is brought in and positioned by Netflix as the subject matter expert on what the thought process and emotions of the 20 current best drivers in the world is. People who are at the panicle of the profession yet she has no idea what it means to be them or credibility to speak for them as she has no experience. That would be like getting a local city bus driver to call a Nascar race. I mean they both drive shit but it's not exactly the same kinda gig.

    Yeh, Red Bull hired a lawyer to investigate....a Red Bull employee and cleared them. I'm sure nothing suspicious is going on. Wonder if she will sue him personally. Dunno how that works there in Jolly ole Englund.

    Obviously you've never been part an independent mediation process. The independent investigator would have been approved by both parties. That investigator is also subject to their own professional conduct regulations.

    If you had bothered to read the statement released by the parent company earlier today, you would know that the matter can be appealed if the complainant desires.

    Did you learn to spell in banjo class?

    I figured some miserable person would say shit like this. Yes she is a women, in fact the most successful women driver American racing AFAIK. For what that's worth? Maybe nothing to you? You are the authority here right? Now I did mention that she's a bit out of sorts doing F1 and it does seem they are getting some flak for that but she brings the female fans so the media loves that. Lets move on from Danica. It was brought up so I chimed in. Time to get this show going.

    I really hope Lando starts off well this season, if Piastri out scores him in the first 3 races I could see Lando spiralling like Danny did.

    Wow, having a differing opinion and liking females with tits makes me a miserable person. Very well bro, you do you. LOL…

    ^Those two are trading blows all the time. Love the competition at McLaren. This looks to be an epic season! Unless Max runs away with it AGAIN. I want to see Ferrari battling up front. :popcorn:

    Being misogynistic isn't a different opinion.

    I still think if Lando does good this season he'll be next to Russell in the Merc. They have the $$$ to buy out Landos contract. Just a feeling. :p

    Okay snowflake. Disliking one person whose career opportunities are based solely on her gender does not make me misogynistic. It is in fact my opinion and one I am entitled to have. As you do your own. Let’s agree to disagree and move on with our lives and stop distracting from the intent of this conversation. That will free you up to crusade elsewhere.

    Of course you're entitled to your opinion. I never said you weren't. My opinion is you talk as a misogynist does. That's my opinion.

    Hopefully this year is more competitive. Would like to see the red cars have more success and perhaps see HAAS run mid pack.
