I’m tired of hearing commenters blaming Bernie for the V6 engines, for the lack of overtaking, for the parking prices and for the shitty beer.

Bernie is not making the F1 rules, he is selling the show. FIA is making the rules and local promoters are responsible for the events.

Bernie handles the F1 brand and the Paddock clubs. That’s it.

Bernie can be blamed for the lack of a French GP, for all these boring Tilke tracks and for the lack of F1 footage on Youtube, but not for F1 technical rules and regulations.

It might help if he closed his mouth every once in a while.

Here’s your man.

He’s a dick and nobody likes him. He wants every F1 race to be in a totalitarian 3rd world county.

That’s as maybe, but Bernie is still a shitty little troll and I eagerly await the demise of his reign of terror.

Well, he wants every F1 race’s promoters to give him a fleet of super yachts full of money. He doesn’t really care where it comes from.

Well, it’s a good thing I’m just at the aiming stage and haven’t fired yet.

So now... who do I kill first, and who would I approach to replace? My weapon of choice is a bottle.
