It was a different time! How were people supposed to know that racism was bad 8 years ago? The internet had only been around for 2 decades at that point.

Uh people are always saying you have to do a lot of racism to be able to compete in F1. Race sim? What's that? No I'm pretty sure it's racism.

Wow, that article. Reopen gulag and send the author and all the editors that had to approve the article there for 40 years of hard labor. Sack everyone who didn't resign voluntarily from whatever piece of poo poo rag that was published in. Nuke England just to be sure.

It will probably pain you all to know that Crofty also makes bank on the live talk circuit Yes, people actually pay decent money to listen to him tell stories about life as a star F1 announcer

On two separate occasions in the last couple of races, Croft has watched a car be overtaken, not noticed and then become excited that the car that has just been passed, on screen, is catching the car ahead. Probably because he was too busy looking at a bullshit stat sheet so he could prattle on. Murray's brain farts were nowhere near as frustrating.

ROFLBOT posted:It will probably pain you all to know that Crofty also makes bank on the live talk circuit I mean Joes Award has an annual meeting where people voluntarily pay money to go and listen to him talk about whatever poo poo he's made up in his head this year, so it's not surprising. I nearly went a few years but I just didn't think the payoff about liveposting it in the offseason thread was worth it.

This is the same Mark Hughes who used to (still does?) provide 'practice pointers' at the beginning of Sky's free practice coverage so more poo poo to throw on the pile of reasons I am irrationally mad about David Croft.

Sulman posted:Hazel used to be really great. I don't know what happened to her as she seems to have gone very Twitter recently. The Maltese cross and iron cross has been coopted by racist groups for decades (at least in the US). It's usage can easily be interpreted as a dog whistle. It is in partnership with Jesse James of West Coast Choppers fame, who has had more than a few incidents that lean towards being at least sympathetic to neo-nazis and other racists. He has also expanded into the firearms business and it is pretty drat hard to find people in that business that are not racist sympathizers, if not outright frothing at the mouth racists. There is a whole thread in TFR about the industry.

Idk but if you look at Hamilton's tweets from 2012 he doesn't write anything like Mark Hughes in that article, so the only logical conclusion is that he is racist in effect not racist in intent whatever the juddering gently caress that means.

The thing is, it’s for autosport. If it was for the twee aristocratic readership of Motorsport Magazine, that he writes for now, who all go fox hunting on the weekend and have driving gloves for their Land Rover you could see this as him being an out of touch old white man grasping at relevance he doesn’t understand. But it’s for autosport.
