Does RPM even make anything anymore? I’m a fan of quality over quantity but my favorite jihaddist does nothing

He uploaded a podcast couple of days ago where he explained that he is in a process of moving house, but he is having trouble as potential landlords see him as a… suboptimal candidate
every flat I've ever gotten was completely separate from "appearance and personality"
it means he's just got nothing to talk about as a Lando fan and 0 safety cars since Canada.

Its not an excuse he is adhd as fuck this is known. But imagine you are a landlord and a 25 year college dropout with a mohawk shows up that starts looking for a place to put his bathtub and kim jong un picture. When asked about occupation he claims he is an F1 journalist but when pressed admits to being a youtuber. But the money is apparently not a problem he is willing to put up a 6 month deposit. What are the odds your house ends up burned down or a crackhouse?
landlords are stupid, but not dumb. References are important. Moreover, no landlord asks why you have the things you have. "Why do you have a 43 inch LCD TV you fckin peasant! you can't afford an OLED you can't afford rent on my property!"
Absurd.

After you sign the papers, sure. Problem mr.Mohawk is having is they take one look at him and nope the fuck out.
I meant that as in Tommy says Landlords see him as suboptimal, you say he has enough money for that not to be an issue, therefore I concluded the problem had to be a different one
Then I said, I as a lowly common man, used Docusign to sign my lease agreement, online payment portals to pay rent, and only had a single call to the managment's reception to see if there was any availability.
Or at least, it was inferred thats what I was saying.
But the series isn't on its knees because of him. It's consequences of bad decisions made by FIA in last 20 years (seriously all these current issues date back to 2004, when FIA decided that they don't need customers racing, it took more than 10 years to fix rallying on national and regional level).
The problem is that manufacturers are holding FIA by balls. MBS has done some steps in the right direction and disrupted status quo, he appointed working group that came up with new rules set that follows Dakar's ruleset, allowing privateers build their own car without manufacturers' approval. The new rules were postponed tho, so we don't know if this will really happen.
Don't forget that it was him who fighted against FOM, trying to bring new team onto the grid.
I get the MBS hate, but we have to point on the real issues, not something made up, because that kinda undermines the real problems.
I think he would be alright FIA president if he stayed in background instead of trying to be a main character.
I said a decent motor racing background, not just any. Winning the *Checks Notes* Middle East Rally Championship is great, but then he's done a pretty awful job in WRC. Should've taken Nasser Al-Attiyah instead
To me one of the most ridiculous things he’s done is the whole stupid medal for the winner. I mean, it’s obviously just so he gets the attention of being on the podium for a few seconds. I really wish when he put it on Lewis that he would’ve taken it off and dropped it on the ground.
As much as I hate MBS. I think the idea was also that the driver would have a memorial of his own. The trophies always find their way into a display of the constructors if I'm not mistaken. But absolutely I have no idea why MBS should always be the one handing it out.
Idk you might be right, but it's pretty common for people to use rap and hip hop as a means to say racist shit, but still have plausible deniability because they technically never mentioned black people or black culture.
Whether he meant it like that or not, I think it's pretty understandable that that was Lewis' interpretation of his comments.
people often tend to forget that Racism often leads to class divisions, reinforcing inequality and social stratification.. especially if its done on a large scale systematic level. so yeah. in a vaccume ur right. but in all normal walks of life, this shit goes hand in hand.
You know what? I’d like to see Lewis as president of the FIA. How many more years does he have? Surely depends on Ferrari’s car next year, but I think he’d be perfect for it.
ok but the f1 conference rule has been there for a while, i guess why he was protesting it, but correct if me if I'm wrong but swearing culture is very different in the arab world compared to the western world.
