Are we checking? This is a place to take a p*ss out of motorsports.

F1 is not the only motorsport in the world, so go ahead and post your shitposts about WEC or MotoGP or IndyCar or ralley or Polish Speedway or whatever. Even Formula E, I guess. It needs some love, too.

By the way, F2 > F1.

Rules? What rules? Stop inventing. Just don't be a douche. Lemmy.world's sporting conduct applies.

From everything I've seen and read; the main fitness requirement is being light, and operating the car under heavy G forces. Which is exactly the same as a fighter pilot. Which women have been doing very successfully for decades.

So in my opinion, It's just toxic masculinity.
