Funny how only Lando can engage in 'British Humour' but George, Lewis and Alex can't.
Edit: I'd acc gasp in shock if I ever saw someone describe Lewis saying something as 'British humor', most people don't even see him as British.
Edit 2: Also I feel like this applies to most of them but they're too privileged. They're just not real people. We're so outraged because this situation would be stressful in our world. Imagine you broke someone's phone and you didn't say sorry in fact you seemed quite pleased with yourself. If we broke someone's phone we wouldn't be able to replace it bcs money but also that person wouldn't be able to replace it bcs money. And the only reason people are defending lando is bcs in that world the stakes are so low but in our world the stakes are high and you wouldn't be defending me if I broke someone's phone and didn't even bother to apologise and just seemed amused by the situation. If I broke someone's phone I would be stressed because I owe someone a phone but I don't have the money.
Edit3 (Sorry): Also lando keeps saying stuff about people and it keeps being excused with oh but he's joking or he doesn't mean it. But for drivers like Lewis and Yuki even Alex and Zhou Guanyu those sorts of jokes can lead to racism and yh it kinda stings that he says that towards Lewis knowing that IF Lewis felt bad about it and tried to defend himself it probably would result in Lewis being called crymilton or a wanker. Like you kno when you criticism Lewis for the smallest crap it makes your racist fans go after him we've seen it when Max said stuff after Silverstone (sm racist comments had to be deleted from insta and twitter) and when Fernando had his issues with Lewis.
Edit 4 (One last thing I promise 😭): The consequences for 'joking' about Lewis is way less than if Lewis was joking about any other driver. That's why I feel like sm drivers just cannot keep Lewis' name outta their mouth bcs there are no consequences and no one cares. And the only ppl who do care and try to defend the only black guy in f1 get called a cult. But the people who defend ableism with 'Dutch humor' get called an army 🙄
