Looking good, an improvement on last year. Still not a lot of paint though. (But I'm a fan of exposed carbon so, win)

Considering that X still has advertisers (and more returning), I don't think a little swearing in excitement or frustration is going to have any impact on sponsors or advertising.
The best livery this year IMO. I wanted to see more of the Suzuka special livery from RB and here we are.
Still one of the best liveries there will ever be.
I am happy to see Gulf with Williams, opens the door for another great one like the one-off McLaren had.
It’s gone too far in many areas and this one is the dumbest.
Seems like this graph is mostly saying people are getting more opinionated.
And the fastest lap goes back to literally and figuratively being pointless. lol
If Aston can replace Lance, they might actually have a shot at the title before the end of the decade.
He's a fine brand ambassador, just keep him out of the racing seat.
He could break the cycle and make it successful... but I'm betting it will just be another Vettel re-run.
Ad revenue while it does convert free-service users to dollars isn't the only means of commercialization (traditional business subscriber models for one) and as long as any financial incentives are there (not just ad-related), there will be spam of all kinds. Any general purpose medium will be come subject to this, it's inevitable.
To the large point, a very very small amount of users have the means, capability or desire to host their own networks and services. Raising the technical bar means lowering the audience size. Even then, you'll still find bad actors and people you don't agree with.
It was a good event, even if we had to poke fun at Mike Crack for no reason. We are for sure at peak stage design these days. They had a variety of ways of introducing each car/team that kept it interesting and not feel super repetitive. I would've liked a few more sentences from each driver, but whatever I guess there's not much to say except let's get racing.
