idk, half the fun of being an F1 fan is, during silly season, trying to determine whether driver X would win against driver Y in the same car

if there are fans out there not doing that, though, yeah, Nando's right

I think Nando is primarily talking about the crowd that drive to survive pulled in over the past few years. Most of them don't seem to dig as deep into what makes F1 tik as the older fans. I think a lot of them don't really try to understand the technical side of F1, and that's ok, but there is definitely a shift in how drivers and their accomplishments are perceived.

Kevin Magnussen is better than Max Verstappen in the same car.
