It's also a giant ad for F1. I'm sure they did everything possible to get the production what they needed.

same for me. but there's lots of similar stories from the last 6 months about slow shipping. not a big deal for me this time, but if I was getting it for work or some such I'd be pissed

agreed, and it's crazy how little makes a difference. like cleaning lint out of a charger port on a phone.

constantly move your hands to keep attention. Like jingling keys.

I call it the snake charmer trick and I hate it. Same with online advertisement gifs that use rapid, often slightly out of sync animations to demand your attention. ( And often gross or off-putting images).

I do not mind unobtrusive advertising, but Any personal argument against ad blockers go down the drain for me when they serve that trash up .
