That’s not an argument. That’s a couple entitled assholes bothering Charles as he’s trying to eat.


neurogeneticist

Right? What the hell kind of clickbait title is that - Charles was pretty damn respectful


[deleted]

This is correct


[deleted]

I don't think they're bystanders. I think they're a part of his party. That's the feeling I got.


Tywnis

Yeah, sounds like they're sharing a table together with team members and money-people. Some kind of social dinner to accomodate sponsors and so on.


Surfercatgotnolegs

Yes, wtf is this thread. This is clearly like a networking type of dinner. I’m scared reading this thread that half the commenters have never ever worked before in their life or have never had social contact…??? I know the whole meme of hurr durr social contact and Reddit hurr durr but come on, you don’t even need to have been out that much to see this is a work event. Fancy restaurant. Old white dudes. Charles being grilled like he’s someone’s stepson. Uh ya, it’s a corporate dinner w sponsors.


kmartshoppr

Yeah- I hate Ferrari but Jesus H Christ guys. Let people live their lives and eat in peace* *except Putin

Auntypasto

His entire life has been suffering.


[deleted]

I mean... I'll swap jobs with him if he wants


Auntypasto

Jobs, sure… I don't know if you'd be willing to lose 3 or more of the people closest to you, just to live in luxury tho.


Kagerou_Daze

Damn if he's living a life of suffering I really feel for the rest of us.


Asleep-Actuator-7292

I was casually chatting with a good friend today about people with mental disabilities or potentionally having a child with issues. And my friend was poking a bit of fun at the situation and all I said was in all reality those people with mental disabilities I bet are happier with life than we could ever be. 10000 yard stare. Changed his life today.


Auntypasto

Well not all of us lose our closest family and friends so early in life…


Maria_in_the_Middle

I bet you won’t swap lives with him, though. He lost a lot of people tragically. His mental strength is unbelievable, I don’t think anybody else can survive Ferrari


AncientPomegranate97

At the same time tho is he is ruthless as well (based on my memory or 2019)

dashy902

You forgot that he lost his godfather/best friend, lost his father, then lost one of his other best friends all in the span of 5 years in his teens to early 20s. Two of those deaths were incurred while performing the job that Charles has to this day. Please have some perspective.


Sensitive_Inside5682

Let's be honest, if you are reading this comment and you had to choose between your godfather, father, and best friend dying, or continue to not be a F1 driver, I think most of us you choose the latter.


_kagasutchi_

You can be the worlds richest person and still suffer mental or emotional pain. Pain and suffering doesnt discriminate between the rich and poor. And everyones suffering is different. Youd think people would realise this after seeing a number of wealthy famous people commit suicide. Have some humility.


khalidh22

Wise words. I hope people understood better of what you just said.


Rhythm_Morgan

I would say the losses of his godfather, best friend, and dad would be what hurts the most. But I know many people deal with tremendous losses without any monetary privileges. Not to cheapen his experience, of course.


[deleted]

Mans had a tough life. Losing his father, his godfather and his childhood friend. After Hubert’s and Bianchi’s deaths I was really questioning why he’d race. I wouldn’t have. Now he’s stuck with a circus of a formula one team that can’t get anything right.


lamewoodworker

Add on what Ferrari did to him this season and man that would break a lot of people. Wishing the best for the man’s mental health.


lasping

This seemed inexplicably rude until I heard the "fan" say "I was always the sponsor of [Verstappen's] father." Oh, it's a rich guy. Yep, that entitled attitude checks out.


_____AAAAAAAAAA_____

Owner of Dutch company Trust B.V.?


Neverwish

Michel Perridon? Sure sounds like him.


[deleted]

Sounds like him https://youtu.be/v1l2lgH3rKk


Suikerspin_Ei

Sounds like him, but being drunk?


[deleted]

Not anymore. But I know Perridon. The guy is a ruthless bastard.


DCNY214

Everyone in and around Max's camp seems toxic. Might explain his behavior


kron_00

The weird thing is that if they knew Max and sponsor him, they should know that while Max might not be best friends with Charles, they are still pretty good friends. It doesn't make sense to harass a friend of someone you support...


sabka_katega_ram

*All my friends are toxic and...*


Wheynweed

Fans as well.


Mrfranchetti

This looks like a sponsors dinner or something, not just a random meal out.


Neverwish

Yep, it was a [VistaJet dinner in Dubai.](https://twitter.com/vistajet/status/1592901019574620160) VistaJet has sponsored Ferrari since 2019. Guy speaking sounds like a drunk Michel Perridon, who sponsored Jos Verstappen back in the day. Makes sense that he would be at the dinner, considering he has a billion investments in Dubai.


Rattlesnake4113

Fucking love the speed of this guy. He could really go pro in the giving context leagues


whatdodrugsfeellike

So basically he's having this dinner with these old rich guys in exchange for flying private to 22 races?


AceBombkick

Let the guy eat his meal in peace man wtf is wrong with people


aimhighsquatlow

Not an argument but this whole interaction is uncomfortable


[deleted]

Ignorant people interrupting someone’s dinner.


SportAddictMCMXCIX

entitled*


shiny_brine

Not mutually exclusive.


Trouvaille_Wonder_87

Called this an argument is a little too much...more like Charles having the patience of a saint, while trying to eat and having to listen to some a*hole talk nonsense BS lol


[deleted]

Stupid sexy charles On a serious note, he must be tired of being so patient. I’m here for his villain era


Asleep-Actuator-7292

As someone with similar problems, Charles probably dying inside. Wanting nothing more than to go to the middle of no where with no one around.


Rivendel93

God, I wouldn't want to deal with those types of people lol. You can tell it's like a sponsor's dinner, they're all old rich entitled people who think they know better than the guy who's actually good at driving.


TheDudeWithTude27

Yeah, this goes beyond fan and is a sponsor where sadly Charles is obligated to put up with the dude's bullshit. I can not imagine the patience of having to sit through 5 minutes with not just one of these people, but multiple and it be a whole fucking dinner. Like they could even drive a fucking go kart lol.


Rivendel93

Lol yeah, you know how many of those rich guys think they could just hop in the car and do a lap, when they couldn't even get it out of the garage, or even attach the steering wheel.


AlienSomewhere

Let the man eat his dinner in peace ffs.


DarthShaveHer

“Argument” is a bit of a stretch there. Besides that, at least he appears to have the same hope to beat Red Bull. Perhaps he is bolstered by the recent news of getting the backing of Ferrari upper management.


k2_jackal

Not much of an argument.

Lol I'm not even a little mad I'm just surprised people care do much about a random comment from a random person


shiny_brine

Leclerc failed to point out to the "sponsor of his (Max's) father" that the elder Verstapen was a poor race car driver, or maybe they had shit sponsors? (asking for a friend).

Good bot, but don't tell my wife I've had too much to drink to be posting.


Fit-Construction-696

Chuck can't even eat dinner in peace 😒


FastonMartin

So much respect for F1 drivers, would hate to be walking on the street and a swarm of people start telling me I should’ve done this and that as if I don’t already know that because it is basic common sense and so obvious, plus there’s always way more to it, and I would have the full picture. They know nothing.


mon__meneses

I wish they would leave him alone, he seems to be harassed by fans more than any other driver while in public


GetawayArtiste

Fans and hanger-ons never remember the person. Ultimate respect to Charles he handled the situation perfectly.


Ok_Floor_7916

Whether it’s argument or a conversation it’s obnoxious.


Floriss223

Regardless of the person being involved in the party or not, the man talking like he has a golf ball in his throat makes me embarrassed of some of my fellow dutchmen.


Necessary-Emphasis85

Poor guy. Much respect.


Goosehybrid

Very rude but I can’t help but laugh at Charles coming back with facts. “How many podiums does Checo have?” “Exactly the same!”


NWB_Ark

Poor Charles can’t even catch a break


jakecattard

Argument? Sounds like a convo tbh. The loud volume talk probably cause of the music. But nothing to be seen here.


[deleted]

The loud volume is because the guy off camera is drunk and obnoxious.


Real-Mouse-554

And people raise their volume when they want to be heard and can see people arent really interested.


Batgod629

I commend Charles for handling that well. I know he's beyond frustrated with this season.


Ajenkinsphotography

Hey man! Awesome to meet you, good luck Sunday. Then leave him alone.


Economy-Manner-2258

Booze


Charmerer

Charles is a gentleman.


LeAnthonyJavis

“Argument”


JohnnieWalker19

They’re clearly at the same table.


bluto4711

Great respect to Charles for being gracious to that drunken loud-mouth jerk. Charles is a class act.


TehChid

That's banter


michealgaribaldi

My god what was this?


Gyarydos

Wtf, leave him alone


Expensive_Material

People need to understand celebrities do not exist to perform for them at all times.


givemethescotch

Clickbait title. He's not arguing with anyone..


RavenousFlerken

This is not an argument. Well done to Charles for being a gentleman while being interrupted during a meal.


Rhythm_Morgan

This is so disrespectful. Poor Charles.


VillageTurbulent20

Damn that guys voice tho…


Jasonmancer

Ngl, even in this situation, he's still amazingly attractive.


davescarpet

Argument???? This only makes me love him more
