    Of all of the sports to make fun of, surely, surely NASCAR or something is lower hanging fruit.

    F1 has had some pretty neat innovation actually come to road cars in the past decades and has some amount of continued materials engineering that’s fairly cutting edge. Also, of all the things to make fun of, leaking oil is really infrequent. Just for the fun fact, the engine-on time of an F1 car has less emissions per year than a one way flight from NY to London

    It isn’t great for the environment of course, but it’s just a funny one when there’s a LOT better things to rip on.
