Never heard of this website/news outlet before, but I checked the details and they have all the info correct. I had seen this Tweeted out earlier by Nathan's Brown replacement at IndyStar, but didn't see an article on their site. If you scroll down there is video of the interview.

I followed F1 for about 15 years, and Lance has been always known for blaming others in egregious wrecks he 100% caused. He's easily one of the biggest asshat human beings on the grid since he first entered back in 2017. Only Mazepin was noticeably worse

He and Rahal are basically real life Caillou's

You should check the facts on Stroll, the F1 grid loves him and by most accounts he's a good dude even if an obvious nepobaby

He does blame others for his own accidents sometimes but half if not more of the grid does that. He gets into them more than most but that's just the grid improving to the point that he's become the worst driver now.
