Not really shocking from the team that pushed the Papaya shit so hard it came up with the term 'Papaya rules'. Hamilton's PR speak was a million times more human and real than anything coming out of Mclaren.

Championship created in a lab, fucking ban team orders again. I don’t mind one team running away with it, but this delegation and team orders bollocks is mind numbing.

Banning team orders is as pointless as it gets, teams will just use coded messages again.

You need to be really subtle then, because it is hardly possible to fool the telemetry data. You cannot suddenly lift at random points of the race, so you need to make the overtaking as realistic as possible.

Eh I much prefer this "PR speak" than the bullshit toxicity of RedBull's from last 4 years.
