@AlanP25122000 @noobbricks Did you just seriously criticise the most successful F1 driver of all time for not winning more? Wow! You're a prize idiot, aren't you?
English

@noobbricks If this really is the case, then WHY did he not win more with the guys that are supposedly gassing these comments
I mean for these people to publicly acknowledge this driver in this way. What happened, surely if he’s this good he’d be on double figure WDC’s 😂😂😂😂 sit down 🤡

Some more quotes from actual people involved in the sport about Lewis' ability to help build a winning team (what Ferrari brought him in for):
Mercedes:
Toto Wolff (Team Principal & CEO): "Lewis is a leader by example. He is not the one who shouts at people. He is the one who goes into the garage, looks them in the eye, and makes them feel that they are part of his journey. He develops, he analyses his weakness and strengths, always with the focus of improving himself."
James Allison (Technical Director): "Lewis’s feedback is remarkable. He has a compulsive need to win that is still intact. In the years when the car wasn't winning, he became the anchor. He didn't point fingers; he said, 'Tell me what you need from me to fix this.' That is how you stop a team from crumbling during a slump."
Peter Bonnington (Senior Race Engineer): "We’ve grown together since 2013. We win and lose together. That’s not just a catchphrase for him; it’s the way he operates. If I make a mistake, he’s the first to tell me 'don't worry about it,' which allows us to keep taking risks and keep improving."
Andrew Shovlin (Trackside Engineering Director): "Lewis has an almost phobic aversion to losing. It manifests as a huge drive to improve every aspect of the game. He is endlessly pushing, endlessly wanting to improve, and it brings an incredible energy to the entire factory."
James Vowles (Former Strategy Director): "After 2021, he ended up being one of the strongest leaders within the team during our hardest times. He brought us all together when we were at our lowest. That ability to galvanize a thousand people after a heartbreak is what makes him a great leader."
Mike Elliott (Former Technical Director): "Lewis’ feedback is incredibly precise. He describes the balance shift through the corner with such detail that it allows the engineers to pinpoint the exact aerodynamic or mechanical cause rather than just guessing."
Riccardo Musconi (Former Trackside Performance Engineer): "He understands the tires better than the sensors do sometimes. His feedback allows us to be braver with our calls because we trust his 'feel' for the car’s limits. He manages the long-term strategy with us while driving."
Niki Lauda (Late Non-Executive Chairman & 3x WDC): "He is the guy who pushes the engineers to the limit. He says, ‘I want this, I want that,’ and they work day and night to give it to him because they know if they do, he will deliver the win. That is how you build a winning team."
McLaren:
Ron Dennis (Former Team Principal & CEO): "Even from a young age, Lewis understood that the car is a product of thousands of hands. He always made it a point to acknowledge every person in the factory, creating a sense of loyalty that you cannot buy."
Paddy Lowe (Former Technical Director): "He is the most hardworking driver I have ever worked with. He will sit in the simulator for hours simply because he wants to make sure the team has every bit of info they need to succeed."
Phil Prew (Former Chief Engineer): "Lewis has a thirst for learning that hasn't diminished. He treats every debrief like it’s his first. He forces us to innovate because his questions are so deep; he wants to understand the 'why' behind every mechanical change."
Teammates:
Valtteri Bottas (Former Mercedes Teammate): "Seeing how Lewis works was eye-opening. He is demanding, but the first to congratulate every mechanic. He understands that the human element is what actually makes the car go faster."
George Russell (Mercedes Teammate): "He knows everyone’s name; he knows the families of the mechanics. When you have that personal connection, the guys in the garage will go into battle for you. He’s built a culture of mutual respect."
Jenson Button (Former McLaren Teammate): "I saw how Lewis lived in the data. He was always looking for that extra tenth, but he was also very good at getting the engineers on his side. He makes the people around him feel like they are winning with him."

👀 Jock Clear Hamilton’a Şaşırmış. “Lewis Hamilton beş tur atıyor, geri dönüyor ve daha hızlı gitmek için neyin düzeltilmesi gerektiğini söylüyor. Ve nadiren yanılıyor." “Bir şampiyonun gerçek gücü, gürültüyü kesip takıma net bir yön verme yeteneğidir. Lewis bunu iyi yapıyor.

After exposing the US’s war crimes and Israel’s genocide at Coachella the lead singer of The Strokes, Julian Casablancas, isn’t done speaking truth to power:
“American Zionists get the benefits of white privilege, but act like they are Black people during slavery. You are not oppressed. You are going to a wedding in Tel-Aviv when there are 80,000 dead Palestinians half a mile away.”

BREAKING: The Trump Administration has asked FIFA to replace Iran with Italy in the upcoming World Cup amid the Iran War.
Trump's envoy argued that Italy’s four World Cup titles in the history of the tournament justify awarding it the slot.
The plan is reportedly an effort to "repair ties" between President Trump and Italy’s Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni.

@Rue_Cannon @cytrusf1 is it ? Ow, so thats why its more familiar with "an" F1 driver. Thanks for your kindness answer this. It is works on "Ess" too ?
English

@IrfanNu83013801 @cytrusf1 The letter F sounds like it starts with a vowel. "Eff". So you use 'an' instead of 'a'.
English

@cytrusf1 I'm not good in english, but why its say "an F1 driver" not "a F1 driver" ?

@KobeissiLetter @elonmusk If that happens, retail finally getting a real seat at the table.

BREAKING: Elon Musk is planning an unprecedented move for retail investors in the SpaceX IPO:
Elon Musk is considering allocating up to 30% of SpaceX’s IPO to retail investors, far above the typical 5% to 10%, per Reuters.
Under this plan, @ElonMusk looks to "tap loyal fans" in the upcoming IPO which could exceed $1.75 trillion in valuation.
The plan includes a hands-on approach to banks, assigning firms specific roles rather than broad competition.
Bank of America is expected to lead US retail distribution, alongside firms like Morgan Stanley and UBS.
The biggest IPO in history is prioritizing retail.

@didtheswanswin The mistake you're making is trying to use logic to understand how they decide what is and what isn't antisemetic. Save yourself the energy.

@QBCCIntegrity She's talking about a CBDC. If they had one during covid, it would have looked like this.
Government: Pay Rob his CentreLink, but only if Rob gets the vaccine.
OR
Government: Pay Rob his CentreLink, but it can't be spent on petrol this week.
Bewarned!

@Dr_TheHistories "Nobody was ever charged". Dunno whether this sentence is genius or perhaps the most stupid sentence I've read in a while.
English

On September 19, 1991, two German hikers named Helmut and Erika Simon were making their way across a high ridge in the Ötztal Alps when they spotted a body partially embedded in the ice.
They assumed they had found a lost mountaineer. They reported it to the authorities. The authorities assumed the same thing.
It took several days, and some increasingly confused experts, before anyone began to suspect that the man in the ice had not recently gotten lost on a hiking trail.
He was 5,300 years old. He had been lying there, preserved by the specific conditions of that particular glacier, since the Copper Age. By the time the Simons found him, every human civilization either of them had ever learned about in school had risen and fallen while he waited in the ice.
His name, eventually, was Ötzi.
Over the following three decades, scientists subjected him to every analytical tool available, and then waited for better tools to be invented and applied those too.
They reconstructed his last meal: ibex meat, red deer, einkorn wheat, eaten within roughly thirty minutes of his death. They found pollen from a hop hornbeam tree in his clothing, which placed him in a specific valley at a specific time of year.
They identified 59 tattoos, placed along joints and pressure points in patterns that correspond so closely to acupuncture meridians that researchers still argue about what that means. They found in his DNA the oldest known case of Lyme disease, and evidence of a genetic predisposition to cardiovascular disease, and the fact that he was probably lactose intolerant.
They knew what he ate for his last meal before they knew how he died.
When they found out how he died, the entire frame of the investigation shifted.
There was an arrowhead lodged in his left shoulder. It had penetrated the subclavian artery.
He would have bled out within minutes, probably faster. The arrow's shaft had been removed, either by Ötzi himself in the moments before he lost consciousness, or by whoever shot him, covering their tracks. His hand showed defensive wounds.
He had someone else's blood on his clothing from at least four different individuals.
Ötzi did not get caught in a storm. He did not fall. He did not wander onto a glacier and succumb to exposure. He was shot in the back during what the forensic evidence strongly suggests was a violent and deliberate attack, by someone who knew him well enough to get close, or was skilled enough not to need to.
Nobody was ever charged. There are no suspects. The case is, technically, still open, which makes it the oldest unsolved murder in human history by a margin so large it is difficult to process.
Somewhere in the Copper Age, someone had a reason to kill this specific man, on this specific ridge, and then disappear back into a world that left almost no written record of anything. We know what Ötzi had for breakfast. We know his genetic risk factors.
We know the season and the approximate time of day. We have reconstructed thirty minutes of his final afternoon with more precision than most modern crime scenes allow. We have no idea who killed him or why. We probably never will.
