Formula One’s online explosion has unleashed a wave of toxic abuse targeting drivers and teams, sparking a desperate but imperfect fight back through AI filters and anti-hate campaigns.

Colapinto calls for fans to channel their passion responsibly, acknowledging the crushing mental toll this abuse takes — even if he personally remains unfazed by anonymous vitriol.
