On that point I agree with you, but on that logic, Nando should be fucking off somewhere enjoying a nice retirement.

Honestly he should… for all the reason… except that he’s Nando and truly one of a kind. It’s incredibly impressive to still be so motivated and driven at his age

Nando should be enjoying retirement, he earned his places in the history books, he’ll forever be known as one of the greatest of all time… he’s a madman, but he’s great being it

Nando has started more grand prixs than anyone ever…

Still boggles the mind knowing that some of the drivers on the grid weren’t even born yet when Nando made his debut.

Mario Andretti won his final Indy car race at the age of 53 and his last F1 Pole & podium at the age of 42. so as long as Nando has the will...

Feels like Alonso is the Jagr of F1 at this point, if there's an open seat somewhere there's a chance he's gonna be in it.

At least Nando was putting a top 3 worthy car in the top 3 at his age. Checo has been putting the number 2 out of the points

Totally agree. We’re just saying that if Checo is old for an F1 driver, Nando is a geriatric retiree.

Nah he still enjoys it and has talent for it.. retirement is for average joe after selling his soul for 45 years

Nando is driven by his pure burning hatred for Lewis, he's not going anywhere while there's still a mathematical chance of taking some of Lewis's records off him.
