I'm not OP, but had I seen that I would have skipped this entire thread. I have nearly zero interest in what a socialist critic who normally covers cycling thinks about F1, its sponsors, or anyone else involved with the sport (or their thoughts on equestrian sports, sailing, offshore powerboat racing, air racing, or polo for that matter).
The magazine's EIC was right: the article had no place in an enthusiast's magazine, well-written or not. Mother Jones or similar would be an ideal place for it. I wonder if the online editors who approved it were trying to move towards a politicized editorial tone more typified by Jalopnik [0] than Road & Track.
