![[Martin Brundle] It’s races like Qatar and very rainy days which make F1 drivers look the heroes and athletes they are.](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/d5998494-9092-4deb-a47c-07cc669c2d75.png){kind=link}
Continuation: Absolutely don’t buy into the weak view we shouldn’t put them through this kind of challenge. Check out Senna in Brazil, Stewart at rainy Nurburgring, Lauda post crash, etc etc

Yes, throwing up in your helmet and passing out at the wheel is both strong and manly!
He’s comparing imperfect driving conditions and freak accidents with undeniable health concerns. Everyone can suffer from heat stroke- it doesn’t care how fit you are. Poor taste and bad take.
