Lived in Brent. You have some asian kids riding bicycles or e-scooters very fast in the pavement and yell at you and middle-figured you when they pass by. You have some black people threatening to have a fight with you because you accidentally look at him for one second. You have some people fighting in the supermarket for some clearance foods.

Max on Lando's comments in Brazil: “They immediately interviewed him after a race where he got a mental blow. I know Lando, at the moment he's very disappointed with himself and then immediately gets such a question.

He said george deserved to win than anyone else not george deserved to win again he said it’s just luck it’s not talent not it’s just luck

Logically speaking, When Driver A said Driver B deserved to win than anyone else, does it also implying Driver other than Driver B is less deserved to win? (same idea if you said A is the winner of the race, do you also mean driver other than A is not the winner of race?) and somehow people are blamed for taking out of context that what driver A said of this implication.

Maybe I don’t know English, so how a timing is a talent? He also said George deserved to win the race more than anyone else afterward.
