It takes a rare talent to cock up such an excellent race as yesterday’s Belgian Grand Prix, with thrilling racing and plenty of incidents. But it seems that the FIA have an embarassment of riches when it comes to such talent, and they’ve totally fucked up what should’ve been a golden opportunity for the sport to recover from recent negative publicity. There are those who insist that it’s all down to Hamilton not driving a red car, but I always prefer to believe in cock-up before conspiracy. In this case, it’s a sodding great cock-up in that it has reinforced the conspiracy theories amongst thousands of F1 followers, and can only do the sport immense damage in the long run. So my inaugural Fuckwit of the Week award goes to the FIA race stewards.
Fucking Incompetent Arseholes?
I’ve been a watcher of F1 for as long as I can remember and have always avoided being a fan(atic) of any team since the disappointment of seeing “my” driver/team getting beaten seems a bit of a waste of energy. This latest stupid decision by a trio of incompetents (a Frenchman who’s never raced, a Kenyan who thinks long hair and an unshaven chin shouldn’t be allowed in motorsport and a Belgian track official who’s scared that his track could lose FIA or F1 status (again)) has seriously made me think about whether i want to carry on watching what looks more and more like a scripwritten parade run bt a greedy, magalomaniac dwarf and an (?ex?) Nazi sypathising failed politician who rather likes hitting women (and being hit by them!).
