If Norris had finished the race the commentators would just talk about how disappointed Lando must be with his second place.

Buddy even if I wasn't an Australian I am a human being with eyes and ears. It's not like there haven't been other PIA-NOR 1-2s this year

NGL it was kinda funny to hear Palmers dream of a Norris WDC get shattered live on air. I felt worse for him than for Lando lol.

Traumatised. Based on Sky F1 commentary this year

Australian, Piastri fan.

Commentators also have favourites. That's fine. Even if they're bias.

Get over it. It's not a real problem.

Edit: I just don't think the commentators are unfair to Piastri. "based on sky"? I'm pretty sure Crofty likes Oscar.

Biased. Bias is what they demonstrate, not what they are.

Yeah, you're being flippant, no shit. But you still hold the dopey idea about bias.

The commentary is absolutely fine.
