F1 2022 Season

I know people will say they shouldn't have to say anything but other team like Ferrari are. It's about standing up to racism whoever is involved. Especially when you look the young Red Bull driver situation a week ago and Nelson being linked to Max, a little tweet of support to Lewis wouldn't kill them.

This is Red Bull essentially siding with Verstappen / Kelly Piquet / Nelson Piquet instead of standing up to racism. Yet one of their junior drivers says the N word on a stream and is immediately cut.

How pathetic is that? RBR just go down in my estimations every time.

Kelly Piquet liking this post to top it all off. Yikes.
 
What are the odds of Max entering the final race of the season dressed as Zwarte Piet?
 
I never realised until today that if Max married Kelly he would be step-dad to Kvyat's daughter.

It’s disgusting. There’s no need for them to write that stuff about how Hamilton is and ambassador for support or deserves respect either. All of the focus should be on how Piquet has been a racist cnut and should be nowhere near the paddock or representing the sport at all in the future. Pathetic statement from F1.

it does read that way, doesn't it: Hamilton deserves respect because he's done all these things. So, if he hadn't, or if Piquet had said this about someone who cleans the paddocks and does a poor job of it - then it would've been fine?

I never realised you were Brazilian until today - your English is terrific. Out of interest when it's said that Piquet directed homophobic abuse at Senna, was that because of the São Paulo football team "Os Gais" thing to try to wind him up or was it actually him saying it in a sort of directed, personal way? Any idea?

:D You know Pauldy never puts quotation marks around his quotes!

Didn't realise that that sick old cnut is Verstappen's father-in-law. He really doesn't have many good role models around him does he with the likes of Horner, Marko, Piquet, if we're honest even his dad...

Also did Nelson Piquet express his disappointment in his son through the medium of marrying off his daughter to a better driver? Very Trumpy sort of thing to do if so :lol:

any morals she may have had would have long gooped out her empty headlock of a vagina as she banged her way around the paddock.

Highly doubt that Pique called Hamilton with that N word out of love for him. :wenger:

This is the video. Somebody in the comments has translated the interview which helps give better context.

Clearly we know there is no endearment or friendship between them, so you can't use family/friendly 'banter' as an excuse. It's just straight up disrespect.

Wow the Max hate in here is crazy. You guys find a way to bring his name in for something he wasn't involved in. Is Piquet involved with RB on some official capacity to suspend him?

It's also weird that a British forum hates RB, which is based in the UK and seem to support a German car manufacturer more.

I wouldn't be surprised if someone on here came up with a conspiracy that Max asked Piquet to say all this :lol:

I cant agree with this, RB and Max dont have anything to do with it, OK so Piquet is Max's partners Dad , but that is it.
I am no fan of either, but this is not about them, this is just down to one racist old man.

How is it unrelated? Red bull have confirmed they won't make a statement regarding the issue.

Why have every other team said something but not red bull? i'll let you work out the links.

I haven't said anything about Verstappen personally being involved, but I assume you do know who his partner is... now why would Piquet dislike Hamilton?

I think you are clearly a bit lost in translation as i'm not asking red bull to suspend him, but publicly state it's not acceptable. They are refusing so far. :lol:

Not one person said this. More critical of RB for not releasing a statement in support of Lewis like Ferrari. Considering the past week they've terminated a driver contract because of racist language and last season firing 2 employees for throwing racists abuse towards Lewis. Can't forget them firing an executive because of racist comments in 2020. It's a bit of a history, so to have the support off the teams except RB isn't a good move.

i heard you don’t even get you foot through the door for an interview unless you have at least two police cautions for hate crimes.
 
This sort of thing doesn’t surprise me anymore, I mean half the people in this thread seem like they probably use these terms outside the public eye

Fair enough, I'm just surprised that RBR seem to be hated here, but they also are a team based in the UK. Perhaps because their more popular drivers aren't British.

Imagine waking up, seeing this on the news, making a point of posting on RedCafe to defend Max (or specifically point out why he is innocent and how this place is just filled with Max haters), as if it is the most pertinent thing to do in relation to this story, when no one has even criticised him, or accused him of anything, except pointing out the relationship Max has with the man who made the statement, that Max may not have great role models, and highlighting the double standards of the team Max drives for in not willing to make a statement.

Just imagine. Can only think of a handful of reasons one might think like this.

Probably because their team is full of Helmuts.

I’ve never understood why people support teams anyway. Apart from Italian’s supporting Ferrari as it’s so synonymous with their country.

Yeah sure man, this forum fecking adores Max. It's quite clear if you read this thread that Max isn't exactly beloved on here, to say the least.

Yes, I totally live for gaining karma on this forum. It's not because I stumbled on this thread on General. I make it a point to defend Max on random internet forums. If you think of it that way, the whole forum is filled with grown men and women posting a shitload of messages on football and other sports. I guess you are above it all though, good for you.

I never said this forum loves Max. Pretty clear he is very much hated here. And you’ve missed the point. Imagine reading a story about racism but choosing not to comment on that, but rather highlighting how one largely unrelated person to the matter is hated on the forum.

And you don't think bringing up Max's name at all in this whole conversation serves no purpose? Did he do anything, or is he controlling what other people say?

The anger should be directed at Piquet. Imagine saying Max has a bad influence all around, when he has done or shown no behaviour of racism. Why bring up his name at all?

It isn't weird at all, Red Bull Racing is spearheaded by the least likeable person in F1 in Horner, and has a toxic atmosphere that turns drivers into equally unlikeable personalities (look at Vettel then compared to now, totally different person).
