"Many times" ? That's inaccurate. Forum member ///M Power-Belgium is the one who frequently reminds this forum to Lauda's 2016 claim about Verstappen. What I do reference about Lauda when deemed appropriate for an ongoing debate, though: tidbits of his 2017 interview with Graham Bensinger (insightful first-hand info about himself and the intriguing F1 ecosystem - past and 2017 present, including his opinion on, and experiences with, Lewis Hamilton) (

Ergo, mistaken identity.
It's not up to me to determine whether you're a fool or not, valedictorian or academically challenged, stratospheric or down to earth, moral high ground or moral low ground, saint or sinner. A specific job status, gravitas or astuteness are no requirements to participate over here - everyone abiding the forum house rules is welcome over here. Who you and I are in real life, doesn't matter at all. Always keep in mind that this forum features people of all walks of life, different strokes for different folks. Most are native speakers and some ain't (for example Flemish is my mother tongue - English is a foreign language).
But do know that if comments turn toxic, I'll take action, no matter who you are, fool or no fool. You seem to be knowledgeable and to have strongly developed social values embedded (
cf. pro equality and against racism), and I truly appreciate that. But not getting your facts straight and posting polarizing or vile comments reflecting a considerable to high degree of disdain for an F1 pilot and those who root for him, won't do you a favorable service to debunk a possible
stultus consideration by some forum members about your "Marcoose"
alter ego over here.
Il n'y a que la vérité qui blesse. But maybe you couldn't care less.
In the past, you already let shine through that you've had first-hand personal experiences in the F1 world or race world. And that's perfectly OK - more power to you. But mind you, you're not the only one over here (some are more discreet). Words can be the crust of the meaning with realms underneath. But I digress.
