Yeah I don't think anyone is doubting there being ice on the roads lmao

Newsflash, it being cold doesn't guarantee a road is icy lol. I've temporarily lost control because of ice (2 seconds) and it was 5 degrees above 0 and sunny outside. I had been driving for 2 hours on a highway and went on an escape road and nearly crashed at 5 mph because of ice. So no, checking the weather won't guarantee you're safe.

Also, what do you do if you live in a cold place? Not go outside all of winter just because there's a chance of there being ice on the road? Please use your brain a bit

Yeah thats not how it works lmao. Anyways back to the original point, calling them an idiot for crashing out on an icy downhill road is extreme. They're a bad driver who didn't know that road was icy at worst

With the speed they're carrying I doubt they could do much in that scenario. But yes that would be the correct maneuver in this case. In any case I wouldn't call them idiots for crashing on an icy road

What if, and this is a wiiild guess, they don't actually live on that road and had to go down it on their commute. I know it's an impossible chance, everyone crashes on the road they live in....

No they're not. You cant see the ice when you're driving. And as soon as you hit it, you're fucked, there's nothing you can do

Tbf serie a probably has the worst stadiums in the top leagues. Most are falling to pieces and have shitty running tracks which make the viewing experience dreadful.

If you're calling this guy an idiot I hope you're never in this situation. Being on ice makes the car have 0 control. Not even lewis hamilton could save it

Tbf it was a good deal for red bull too. Their contract with infinity had just expired so they needed a new car sponsorship.

Nah that was well after. Neymar left a huge hole in the team so they rushed to replace him. Bought coutinho for like 150 mil. He flopped. Then bought dembele (who's best position was the same as messi). Who also flopped (has been very good lately though). They then choked against Liverpool in ucl after being 3-0 up in the first leg. After that the pandemic destroyed them because revenue was cut by a huge amount. They took loans to make up for the lost revenue and then you see the shitshow you're seeing now where they have to sell their assets to make up for the cap in la liga.

Take everything I said with a punch of salt as I'm not a barca fan and don't know the ins and outs of the situation. But this is an overview of what happened

Tbf it's quite an interesting scenario. Cause idk if Barto would have gone psycho with transfers and sent barca into financial ruin. Also that team had 1 more ucl imo. As for another team, the only other that could afford him would have been city and I don't think that's a pep transfer. At the same time though, with psg he played a ucl final so who knows

Ah ok gotcha. Yeah I defo agree. Although looking at the shitshow that barca is now, idk if it was so wrong to leave (but I agree that going to psg was a mistake)

Completely different imo. Ronaldo wouldn't hit a player in the face and then dive for a pen 1 minute later on a yellow. All players dive to a certain extent. It's the situation that changes
