        The curbs are literally styled to promote gambling. If that’s your idea of substance, then I don’t want it

              Fine, I’ll bite just for one more comment.

              1. You have no idea what the content of the race weekend will be like
              2. It’s just another scummy sponsor. Are you a-ok with the crypto.com Miami GP?
              3. No inherent issue with gambling. And if your concern is addicts then why we drinking alcohol on the podium?

                1. We know roughly what the weekend will be like. The race is modeled on Miami which is also all show no content. The drivers themselves even acknowledge this, Verstappen said so himself.

                2. No I am not okay with Miami crypto sponsorship I think that is abhorrent as well.

                3. Gambling having no inherent issue is your opinion not a fact, it is prohibited in many parts of the world. I would also support the use of alcohol free champagne on the podiums I think that’s a great way to keep the tradition without promoting harmful substances.
