I think it highlights the money-grubbing absurdity of Formula 1 that Zandvoort is going to be allowed to drop off the calendar while Max is still racing.

Think about how much they must be charging tracks to host events for it not to be worth it to host a home race for a driver with one of the most rabid fanbases I've ever seen.

This is right next to Central Park. He could ride his bike (or his e-bike) through what is widely considered one of the most beautiful urban parks in the world without having to worry about cars or red lights.

The subway is also fine. It's by no means a public toilet on rails. The platforms are a bit grungy, but inside the cars it's comparable to London or Paris.

In addition to the subway, there are no less than 4 bus routes along Madison & 5th Avenues.

OP, at a certain point there has to be a word to describe what is happening. Just because someone uses it in a derogatory manner doesn't mean that you have to abandon the word or that every usage of it is derogatory.

See: gay

Alternatively, make a third meme about it on a niche Internet forum.

I think battery buses require extra road maintenance because they're so heavy. They'd be required to use truck routes or their roads would have to be updated to handle those weights.

Also EV charging infrastructure is not nothing.

In general, trolleybuses are probably the best electrification method, but people get mad about catenary.
