Does it really matter? It's like children in a nursery on here sometimes.. Just put an orange shirt/skirt, (whatever you're into) on.. It cost £8,000,000 for Jos to have them made in China and handed out at each GP this year...

Not doubting you, more I’d like to know more.

Yes. Let's come full circle.

Seriously, great thread. Too bad we are fighting to claim or disavow "ownership" of Max. I can confidently say he is not American. I do find this discussion amusing. Many Americans will proudly say they are an American plus tout their family heritage. I for one have significant Italian heritage via my mother's side. So both Austin and Monza are my home GPs.

We have a similar situation with sports stars in the UK.

Hamilton is British when he wins, but English when he doesn't (from a Scottish perspective).
Rory McIlroy is Irish or British depending on the contest.
English cricketers come from Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and Ireland. But Scottish, Welsh, Northern Irish and Irish cricketers only come from those countries.

I’ve started to think that this doesn’t really happen. Maybe it used to? My theory is people just notice it when it supports this view, but don’t when it doesn’t.

Besides, Lewis is American when he loses

Off topic: I don’t know the eligibility rules, but assume they are like rugby? One thing is the England team is technically the England and Wales cricket team.
And here’s to Eoin Morgan

The cricket eligibility is all a bit confusing.

Morgan is English because of his mother. (Interesting in the context of this thread).

The ICC determines eligibility and it is based on membership. Scottish and Irish cricketers are no longer eligible to play for England as their own nations are members.
The West Indies is not a single nation, but a collective.

A similar confusion exists around membership of the IOC compared to FIFA/PGA when it comes to Olympic representation.

And a whole can of worms when you consider that Jersey, Guernsey, N.Ireland etc are not part of Great Britain, but compete as Team GB!

4 t-shirts for a 1 pound...thats a serious deal. Always buy in bulk!

But the number of shirts aside, how hard would it be to fill an entire grandstand at every race with one driver's supporters who all happen to be wearing the same shirt?

Kinda makes more sense that everyone in that grandstand had a free tee waiting for them in their seat no?

What you do is permit the spectators free entrance to the grandstand on the proviso that they wear the specified tee-shirt. In fact, not dissimilar to many of the non-motor racing countries that host GPs bussing in hundreds of itinerants to fill grandstands just to improve the visual pictures in the media.

Max (or at least the Verstappen family) is from the southern province Limburg. According to many in Holland people from this province are Germans.
