Eish what a bunch of woke dumbasses on this thread,
I never said he is not allowed to cry. My first post I even said there is nothing wrong with people feeling sorry for him.

Fact is he did not crash and sat next to the track for a while crying. He was crying all the way back, he was crying while walking in the pits, even hours later after the race he was still crying.
He was milking it to get the attention away from his mistake and embarrassment by getting sympathy.
So yes someone(Marko) had to bring him back to earth.
But a few clowns hate for Marko would see them rather looking for something he did wrong, than what was right.
And geez one clown even played the race card. Please enlighten me, who is what race and who discriminates against them?

He is an angry and uptight man/woman. The world owes him a living.
 
I see he passed away today in Cape Town. Had an aggressive prostate cancer. Very sad. The end of a legend. Strongs to his family and friends.

Utter legend. Colourful character and one of the last true garagistas in F1.

EDIT: Also wanted to add that he had an eye for talent and was always willing to take a gamble on young drivers. Michael Schumacher, Rubens Barrichello, Eddie Irvine and Ralf Schumacher all debuted with Jordan. He also plucked Giancarlo Fisichella out of Minardi and rejuvenated the careers of Jarno Trulli and Heinz-Harald Frentzen.

I went to see Mike and the Mechanics at Grand West and they brought him on stage for one of their songs. Never would've guessed he had prostate cancer.
 
Just came across it now.

Sauber rookie Gabriel Bortoleto is a protege of Fernando Alonso and the Spaniard's management company. But it turns out the Brazilian is also seeking advice from current world champion Max Verstappen, as the Dutchman shared an amusing anecdote in his media briefing just now.

"I speak to Gabi, quite a lot. He's a very nice guy," Verstappen said. "When he asked me questions, I'm not someone that hides stuff on the grid. After the national anthem he came to me and said: 'Max, what are you going to do?' I said put inters. He said: Really? Really?!' I said: 'Yeah, put inters. It's fine. And if you're not really sure, just ask the team maybe to do something with the tyres, but inters.'"

"It's normal. I mean, it's your first race, it's always very stressful and quite intimidating. He's a very nice guy. He's a great driver and honestly, I really like his approach. He's just a hard worker and he's very passionate about Formula 1."
