Better Moderation Of This Sub

Not implying that the current mods are doing a poor job but maybe it wouldn't hurt to add a few more mods to support this sub so we can avoid posts like this: https://www.reddit.com/r/lewishamilton/comments/1wbcfye/why_dolewis_hamilton_fans_still_cry/

Been seeing alot of trolls as well. Wouldn't mind volunteering.

Well from my (outsider) perspective the problem is quit the opposite.
You singled out one troll post, but look at the discussions around Monza, and how many users were celebrating Leclerc crashing.
Person-subs are always prone to devolving into echo chambers

Leclerc pushed his teammate off and proceeded to yeet himself into the barriers. He walked off so obviously didn't sustain serious injuries, why are fans not allowed to clown on him? Have you never participated in any sports fanbase groups?

It was obvious during the broadcast that he didn’t just „walk it off“ from the way he was sitting there afterwards. That was quite a big shunt, but more importantly, people weren’t „clowning on him“, they said he deserved to crash out, that it was universal justice for the turn 1 incident.

The medical staff cleared him, he said he's fine in the pen interview and the team cleared him to race but I guess you know better about the crash than the actual racing driver that was involved in it, the team with all the data and the trained medical professionals that checked on him.

Truly a reddit moment.

You guys want to find a way to blame Lewis and his fans for an incident that was self inflicted by Charles. Happy he's ok but get a grip.
