Just par for the course now in literally ANY sport. As soon as you have fans, you're going to have bad eggs ruining things for everyone else.

Sadly. He for sure didn’t do it on purpose.
He just overdrove the car frantically trying to stay ahead.
Rookie mistake but he’ll learn from it.
All together he’s driving a solid first season.

Death threats aren't par for the course. Abuse might be...but death threats are police actionable crimes.

I've heard far too many stories of fans sending death threats across almost every sport I watch. Even e-sport

One of those bad eggs was sat on the Red Bull pit wall. I don't think the radio call suggesting Kimi just let Lando past was professional or called for. It was obvious to anyone watching that Kimi made a mistake.

Yeah I really didn't like that from GP.
