But def getting to be worser then better probably - reminds me a lot of the Boyband /K-pop fandom, less about the sport and more about the person that is driving and a much younger & probably female driven fanbase compared to before Drive to Survive
Yeah, the thing is that wags are incredibly celebrated lately like they are literally a part of the sport, center of the universe and being a wag is something people should aspire to be. Just being a wag. Not being an an athlete like Tiffany or Lily, or a journalist like Andrea. No, it's just being a wag that's put on the pedestal. And unfortunately it's usually those that are not actually successful on their own who are loved like this. It's those who get stuff and jobs just for being someone's gf.
Well, people like and dislike wags, which is fine. But this also brings extremes like that person/people who kept reporting Kika's account but also people who'd kiss the path the wag walks on. And both extremes are terrible. And I think people from these two groups are really kind of the same. And yes, this is usually those young fans similar to boybands fans. You can see these fans don't actually follow F1 at all, they only like the driver because he is cute and anything he does is perfect and unproblematic (seriously, they'd hand him a win just for being cute) and should be unconditionally loved including his gf and friends or envy takes over and then they become the worst enemies.
