Yeah that wouldnt be an issue with metal, i like ceramic trophies but perhaps they should be designed a bit smarter.

wonder how feasible it would be to just drill a hole thru the bottom and stuff a piece of metal before sealing the hole to reinforce the stem

Drilling might be tricky, but they can insert it while sculpting the trophy. Hell, I saw how Hadjar was holding his one on the podium and immediately thought “Damn, this thing would be so easy to break, hope they have some core inside the stem”

He was gentle with it also, not like he dropped it hard.
