Let’s stop right now with the ‘Lando defended a sex offender’ narrative, because that’s just fucking disgusting. He did not defend his fucking actions, he defended him from people hating on him FOR THE SPINS AND THE CRASH HE DID WITH A SHIT CAR while he’s a rookie, NOT FOR WHAT HE DID OFF TRACK. There’s a huge fucking difference between the two. Can you guys not understand english or did you just jump on the first given situation to twist words around? Mazepin’s actions were never in the picture and were never ever brought up by Lando in the fucking stream. What he did was something he would have done for any rookie that was laughed at for not being used to a car (and we all know how shit the Haas car is). Even if he fucked up in the past and his attitude was off, saying he defended someone’s actual criminal acts is so far off that you can’t even see the Earth from where you are. It’s one thing to be mad at him/call him out or cancel him and a completely another thing to make him part of a situation that should be in front of a court and punished. I would bet my whole fricking life that if only Mick would have spun and he didn’t stand up for him when people hated on him for crashing out, you guys would have ripped his head off for staying silent. Do you see the double standard? Yes, Mazepin deserved to make a fool of himself, yes even I joked about it, but Lando had every right to defend a rookie from the fans, knowing the pressure they have in their debut and first season.
And no this isn’t a ‘this is my own opinion’ kinda thing. You are saying that someone sided with a sexual offender and defended him from taking advantage of someone. Your bringing dirt on someone’s name with one of the most disgusting crimes without any real evidence for.
No, I’m not defending Mazepin from his disgusting actions and think he should be punished for it, still. No, I’m not defending Lando from anything he did in the past. This is about yesterday’s happenings. Not about anything else. He did fuck up in the past and he did blow up yesterday a bit too much, but he still did not defend Mazepin from his criminal past. People have been looking for his every breath for months blowing most things out of proportion and I’m so fucking done with this fandom, even if I myself am mad at him for some of his actions.
