It's so rare Europeans get to be superior -- let them have it. They do in fact have superior motorsports. It's okay, whenever an American feels bad, they can just look at the moon or Mars and smile.



Every heard about Wernher von Braun? ;)


And Sergei Korolev - perhaps the greatest rocket designer of them all?


We got something to Mars, it just didn't work!


Wasn't it the British lander that failed?


Yes, Beagle 2.


That's a cheap shot on your behalf. Life isn't about bullying my friend.


Amusing that you didn't post this exact phrase to whomever posted this article on Hacker News.

This article was nothing more than stereotypical Euro-bullying. I mean, "like soccer and the metric system" -- do Europeans really have to list every way they're superior every time the subject comes up? Come on.


But but but.. qz.com is an American company based in NY. Maybe they just hate NASCAR. Who knows?

Now, their attitude doesn't justify yours. We are all equals, or at least that's the theory.
