I had to check the article whether there was some context that I missed.

“It was well-deserved for Fernando. We had a great fight, very fair, to the limit. This is something a lot of drivers can learn from!

Is he really fucking serious here? He is making it really hard to have sympathy with him. Own your mistakes and move on dude....

I don't understand your post at all.

“I’m on the wrong side, I ended up losing, but it’s fine because it was a great fight.”

The fight yesterday was fair, both from checo and from Nando. But he can't lecture other people about fair fighting when he was the reason for so many collisions in the past. Last week in mexiko, singapoure he took out two drivers with dive bombs basically. Japan he took out Magnussen.

How is he not seeing that? Or maybe he is, but I can't remember any incident this season where somebody else was unfair to checo.

Yea Checo has made a habit of collisions this year and hasn’t exactly been flawless in my memory either. As you said the wreck in Mexique was entirely his fault.

That said, the last 20 laps of him and Nando was awesome and the best part of the race.

[–] hillbicks@feddit.de 1 points 1 year ago

Absolutely! I was on the edge of my seat, especially the last two laps. Incredible raacr craft by both of them and what a finish.

[–] Motecuhzoma@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Yeah, Checo has had his fair share of careless driving but in general I think he tries to drive clean even if he cocks it up sometimes, like in Mexico

I wouldn't read that much into it, to be honest. In my opinion, he was just complimenting Alonso.
