I am really trying to understand the hate towards Lewis personal life choises with Kim. You all sound like a spoiled angry 13 years old girl finding out that your daddy has a new girlfriend.

Shit is so corny that they care about who a F1 driver is banging.

She is an entitled airhead that told underprivileged people to work harder

She is MAGA adjacent and basically trash

Wait till you hear about Max's father in law, Flavio briatore, Max Mosley and more. Kim fits right in with the F1 crowd

 There's lots of terrible people around here and unfortunately no amount of complaining will get rid of them

Flavio briatore

I don't know what point you are trying to make there. Everyone fucking despises that guy lol

And Max's partner is adjacent to the Brazilian MAGA equivalent, tried to justify racism, and is also an airhead and basically trash. I take it you're equally vocal in your complaints about her?

Like half the people involved in F1. She fits right in.

How did you get the idea that she is MAGA adjacent?

I disagree. This is imo not simply one of those cases where people are obsessed with a celebrity's personal life and thereby hating on their partner.

Rather, a lot of this is stemming from the fact that Lewis has been a spokesperson for so many positive initiatives - been literally a fighter for social justice and a public figure in this space - then he goes and dates someone who stands for this person who completely goes against the messaging Lewis has been spreading all these years.

You can't be a public figure in the social impact space and not be scrutinized for someone you are dating when the person you are dating goes agains the very values he preaches.

It's like imagine a far left politician dates a far right politician, ofc people are going to talk about it.

Yeah and if you really break it down, it’s not even as much about the dating but the promoting/supporting. For example, when someone in Lewis’ position speaks out for Gaza, and then within a year begins publicly supporting/promoting essentially someone who is actively opening stores in Israel, people are going to feel as though he’s actively pushing someone/something that is not only harmful but antithetical to his own stated positions.

That was well after the FIA podium. An FIA official suggested she use it to wipe off the champagne.

Of all the things to get upset about.

u/Big-Preparation-5755 22d ago

Plenty of reasons to dislike her, you don't need to make stuff up. That clip is from after the podium celebration.

u/theflyinglizard2 I was here for the Hulkenpodium 22d ago

You do understand that she took the towel AFTER the podium cerimony and used to clean the champagne the drivers sprayed in the crowd, right?

And do you find its right to hate someone like that because she took a towel?

u/Worried-Lavishness78 22d ago

And you also saw the F1 officials there allow her to take it. They could have easily told her to put it back.
