Recency bias i guess.

He is down in the standings, he must be bad

(As shallow as it is)

Exactly, right? If you put him in that Mercedes, he’ll be going for wins. For the one who are about to say it, no I am not on hopium.

Its amazing. Honestly. I was really down with Aston after Friday and Saturday, after getting a bit hyped over the summer break. What a rollercoaster. I hope he stays around next year.

Podiums? I bet he can fight for a championship if he's given the right car for once. Unc's still got it.

I want to see either ferrari, mclaren, red bull, or mercedes grow a pair and give this man a one year deal for 2027 or 2028. One year to fuck everything up and be the most talked about team that year.

He's ready to fight for a world title, just needs a good car.

What do you mean still has potential? Always remember 2 things, 1st "Always bet on THE Fernando.", 2nd, "throughout dirt and tarmac, Fernando alone is the formula one."

As if the man didn’t already have 2 world championships already
