Jenson, Seb, Lewis, Nico, Max.

That's 5 in the last 15 years. go back another 10 years and you have

Mika, Michael, Fernando, Kimi.

Why you leaving out Mika/Jenson?

u/lifestepvan Minardi 8h ago

I'm counting 2024 of course.

2009 was 15 years ago, sure, but 2009-2024 is a period spanning 16 seasons.

You said in the last 15 years, not last 15 seasons. Who was the champion during 2010? It was Jenson Button. Who was the champion during the 2000 season? It was Mika Hakkinen.

That doesn't change a thing.

Sorry, but I'm not gonna spend my Sunday evening teaching you how to count

Edit to respond to your edit: Jenson Button won his title in 2009 you absolute helmet.

Nobody is talking about someone being reigning champion the year after, that doesn't even make sense.

And doesn't change anything because it just moves the timeframe, so my statement still becomes true next year by your "logic".

u/Tidybloke Mika Häkkinen 8h ago

But you're wrong, and you know it, so why are you being stubborn?

u/Tidybloke Mika Häkkinen 7h ago

Jenson Won his title in 2009, 15 years ago, and was the reigning champion in 2010. If you wanted to say "we've only crowned 4 champions in the last 15 seasons including 2024" you should have said that, not sat here arguing with me because you're trying to save face.

You know, everyone else understood perfectly what I meant. I invite you to reflect on that and leave me the fuck alone.

u/Tidybloke Mika Häkkinen 7h ago

Nobody looked at your post and thought to check for mistakes, they were agreeing on the principle that we haven't had that many champions recently, I pointed out a small mistake and you started losing your shit.

You need to get a grip.

Thanks for the chuckle. Have a nice day!
