Not clear if the leak is the real deal or some photoshop work...

29
- Photoshop? Isn't this the type of stuff an AI can spit out in 3 minutes?
  
  13
  
  Photoshop has an AI tool now, so at least we can still keep calling them “photoshops”.
  
  15
  
  Yes there are a lot of web apps that generate whatsapp conversation, so fairly easy to do
  
  8
- It looks like it could be photoshop, or even maybe a catfish? Nothing can be said for certain, and I’m sure every F1 journalist is pouring over it trying to validate the existance
  
  9
- And where is the “he should lose his job” evidence?
  
  6
- Weird: file 6 is JPG screenshot. Other screenshots are PNG. Phone changed in between? Or faked?

  Good spot but it looks like the jpg is a camera photo whereas the pngs are screenshots, so maybe the phone just uses different formats for each. (Although I'd expect the opposite normally)
  
  4
- What are they meant to be sorted by?

  No clue...

  You have to align them with the stars, but take into account the position of Mars and Pluto at the time the screenshots were taken.

Guess things are about to get started in the court of public opinion

28
- I rule this easily-faked collection of whatsapp screenshots from an anonymous source admissible as evidence on the grounds that if you were going to fake it, you'd probably make them spicier than that.

  I'm inclined to agree. Looks like there was at least something going on between them too. Not sure it's fireable but Geri should probably kick him to the kerb.
  
  8
- As if we needed proof that Horner's a sniveling little shit lol

  I think Horner's a piece of shit (for cheating on his pregnant long-time girlfriend in particular - I have zero respect for people who do things like that).
  
  But I'd still prefer to know if there was a legit case of sexual harassment before I'm comfortable branding him as one

Oof

Like for real, I have no idea who has the right position in the relevant actions themselves.

But it's obvious that outside of those allegations, there is a power struggle going on within this company.

Popcorn heeere! Caramel, cheese or salted! Getcha popcorn heeereeee!

24
- I'd say salted only, because this thread, and the larger Formula 1 community, are about to turn into the largest goddamn saltmine since the end of the 2021 season.
  
  13
  
  I'm just tryin to make a livin, okay bud? The demand for salt is through the roof and it's been tough keeping it stocked.
  
  5
- I'll take a mix of cheese and salted please. Kangaroo court is about to start!
  
  5
- Sorry, cheese popcorn? What planet did you come from?

  White cheddar powder makes top tier popcorn, it's the truth

  Do yourself a favor and try it. Freshly popped corn with powdered cheese is my favorite now.

  Planet America. Don't worry it's not real cheese.

Don't think the pics are fake at least, he's worn that same polo before

This stuff never goes away. Funny thing is that obviously RBR thinks it does.

8
- Unfortunately for potential victims this type of evidence is becoming less and less meaningful as generation becomes trivial.
  
  6
- Going from the rumours, RBR doesnt think that. RB's majority owners (the ones with the guy who killed someone and didnt face the consequences) do.
  
  5
- Yeah, I think their complete lack of transparency is back firing. Do we even know what the accusations are?
  
  1
  
  The point was that we shouldn't, because the public has a tendency to jump to conclusions and condemn people without even seeing the evidence
  
  2
- It doesn’t matter because the Thai owners of Red Bull do not care about this whole controversy so as long as Horner stays on their good side he’s good

Link already deleted or is it just me?
I thought X is all about free speech and stuff?
