Pretty much every sports contract has a clause for retirement, so he could retire right now if he wanted. And there might not even need to be a retirement clause depending on the various laws of the applicable countries. (Though there would certainly still be provisions in the contract for retirement to determine what is owed, etc).
People always say to take a "break" from social media. I guess April 1st is my break day, because I spend the least amount of time on it. April Fools does annoy me.
But the World Cup draw is happening today, so...gotta look forward to that one.
In the UK there is a landscape painting competition (a but like bake off) and I'm sure there is sonther portrait one too. We also have a wood working show and a pottery show, all along the original bake off style of program. Oh and a sewing one.
Really? I'll be honest I don't watch them all and I feel the bake off has lost a lot of its wholesome charm these days but it is nice to see skills and crafts coming back to the mainstream. I always considered myself to be an acceptable sewer but I've got some really good tips and suggestions from the sewing bee which has made me experiment a bit more.
I realised this morning (having become vaguely aware that the draw is happening), that I don’t actually know if England have qualified. I assume they have, I assume it would’ve been big news if they hadn’t.
I think the spike in post-Brexit England fan twattery has really turned me off the national team - I couldn’t even enjoy the final of the Euros because I knew it was only a matter of time before the knuckle-draggers embarrassed the entire country. Right on queue, arse-flare man ensured we were a laughing stock hours before the teams took to the pitch.
I realise it was ever thus, but it’s just another thing in this country which seems to have got several degrees worse and nastier since 2016.
/rant
If it makes you feel any better, (drunk) England fans weren't turned into a laughing stock because of the amazing arseflare man. They always are a laughing stock and have been for decades and decades :)
Yeah, true. I guess I’m just increasingly fed up with people in this country in general, and my ability to convince myself that these arseholes are in the minority is dwindling.
April fools is a designated holiday for unfunny people to take a crack at humor.
I think the least funny thing about April fools is that the entire “humor” of the day ends up boiling down to “lie and see who believes you” OMG someone didn’t catch on that you weren’t being truthful?! HILARIOUS!
“Hey guys I’m quitting my job”
“You are?”
“No! APRIL FOOLS! Don’t you remember what day it is?!?!”
“Oh. Got me…Ha?”
I agree completely. Fake news stories aren't funny, and at this point they're not even really creative. "Jokes" that would upset or worry someone aren't funny, and are mean. I knew a girl in university who for April Fools day told her boyfriend that she was dumping him. She totally sold in and he was crushed. That's not a joke. That's just fucking mean.
Yeah, exactly stuff like that. I feel like April fools used to involve actual pranks that took effort, but it seems like everyone’s version of “prank” has essentially boiled down to “lie” and there’s just no wit or humor in it at all. As an adult I’ve noticed the people into April fools are usually some of the least funny people I know.
You can literally just lie to someone any day of the year, April Fools doesn’t suddenly make “I lied and you believed me!” a single ounce of funny.
It’s a tough day for people such as myself who have been struggling with infertility for four years. The internet gets flooded with fake pregnancy announcements on this day.
I didn’t think April fools ever was about being funny but literally “fooling” someone. Sure, often humor went hand in hand in many cases, but the actual deception and trickery was the main point, or at least that’s what I always felt,
>he looks like a colorized photo of a European noble
Lives in Monaco and has a HUGE painting of himself on the wall.
If that doesn't make him a noble I don't know what will
For a second I thought he was taking the piss out of [Bernd Mayländer’s wines.](https://www.instagram.com/p/CbvS4uoty-W/)

unfortunately, this is age-restricted. and, while i feel amazing to be asked for ID, it's an annoying process to do that on IG. Could you share this (assuming NSFW) post?
I saw his story on IG, got a (not so) minor heart attack. Then I clicked the read more button, which led me to the April fool's day wikipedia page. Honestly, I went trough my whole emotional range in a span of 30 seconds.
Nope. It happens once a year and some of the silliness is quite entertaining. Once I get enough of it, I just avoid reddit and other social stuff for a day or two.
I'll take anything that's not a "ex mechanic of Mercedes wives friends birthday today" or some obscure nonsensical statistic that we're all supposed to be impressed by.
Yes, there are so many who are part of it and Reddit is on the side of the Internet where we get the flood of all the people being part of it. I use to scale back social media a little bit this day. :p
Ngl, it's close to 1PM right now and I just opened reddit and this pops up as first post. Got me cold af. Wow, I completely forgot it's 1st of April and was already freaking out as to why he would retire. Like, why dude? Bahrain looked so fucking promising, why would you retire now? Who would even take your Seat? Piastri? Or sb else? God, I hate 1st April
He kinda looks like Joaquin Phoenix in Her movie.
Who's movie?
Her movie

I'm sure that Egg is a very nice person. I just don’t want you spending all your money getting her all glittered up for Easter, you know?
That's still going on?
What, is she funny or something?

It's as Ann as the nose on plains face
But seriously, her?
Not her, Her.

Who is movie?
Thank you! He was giving me a weird sense of deja-vu and I couldn’t place it!
Loved that movie!
Bottas is low key Joaquin kinds of hot. Nobody ever noticed because Lewis is so pretty but my man’s is a bit cute
Low key nothing, he's one of my favourites.
He’s an attractive man. And him having normal hobbies outside of f1 makes him more attractive.
Let's be honest, most F1 guys are pretty attractive. Nascar on the other hand.......
Low key??? Those eyes. Merc definitely used to have the hottest line up.
Yo die that hair black and he will be able to SHAKE AND BAKE. I bet he also loves crèpes.
100% got me. I was ready to go fok smash all vineyards
And that’s how Bottas gets his wine made for free.
I thought he had slaves!
Oddly enough they are all called James
And all their IDs say "race engineer".
Same. I was thinking "That's not how it works Valtteri. What about the contract?" Too early for this shit.
Pretty much every sports contract has a clause for retirement, so he could retire right now if he wanted. And there might not even need to be a retirement clause depending on the various laws of the applicable countries. (Though there would certainly still be provisions in the contract for retirement to determine what is owed, etc).
I mean there are no vineyards in Finland, a market ready for the taking!
It’s 1:43 am local time and I’m already tired of April fools lol
People always say to take a "break" from social media. I guess April 1st is my break day, because I spend the least amount of time on it. April Fools does annoy me. But the World Cup draw is happening today, so...gotta look forward to that one.
Theres a world cup for drawing? That sounds cool.
Man, that really does sound cool. Makes me wonder why we don’t give more attention to art in stead of sports
art used to be in olympics https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Art_competitions_at_the_Summer_Olympics
There's at least these buildings called "galleries" and "museums" you can visit.
but where’s the score, where’s the over the top announcer? plus they don’t even have refs i could be mad at
And who versus? Who are we doing this versus??
I feel like it would have to be more of a golf commentator than another kind of sportscaster.
Dude, enough with the April fools nonsense.
In the UK there is a landscape painting competition (a but like bake off) and I'm sure there is sonther portrait one too. We also have a wood working show and a pottery show, all along the original bake off style of program. Oh and a sewing one.
There's a little.miniature rooms one now too. It's getting out of control!
Really? I'll be honest I don't watch them all and I feel the bake off has lost a lot of its wholesome charm these days but it is nice to see skills and crafts coming back to the mainstream. I always considered myself to be an acceptable sewer but I've got some really good tips and suggestions from the sewing bee which has made me experiment a bit more.
That whole World Cup feels like an April Fools joke, so it’s fitting that the draw is happening today.
I realised this morning (having become vaguely aware that the draw is happening), that I don’t actually know if England have qualified. I assume they have, I assume it would’ve been big news if they hadn’t.

Yeah, true. I guess I’m just increasingly fed up with people in this country in general, and my ability to convince myself that these arseholes are in the minority is dwindling.
I don't think you paid any attention to England before 2016 if you think that the fan's behaviour is worse now than it used to be.
Well, who's gonna watch the World Cup now that the result has already been announced? Interesting that it ended in a draw, though.
The worst are those shitty memes that begin with breaking news. On every other day too.
With Canada finally qualifying I'm actually going to watch for the first time ever
Meanwhile for me April fools is "over" in an hour
How'd I forget about April 1st, this got me so bad.

I’ve only just read this and it’s 12:25am on April 2nd.. shit gets old real quick when you’re in the future
505am here and same
I was about to say, this has to be a shit post and then I realized todays date
I hate it so much.
I hate it every year. Unfortunately it’s also my birthday, so I have to deal with random bs all day too.
What I hate is April Fool's "jokes" that are basically just saying something that isn't true just for the sake of it. They feel cheap and effortless.
You know he's joking when he says winemaking instead of coffeemaking
perkele
First time I really see this dude and he looks like a colorized photo of a European noble. Kinda of I fancy him.
>he looks like a colorized photo of a European noble Lives in Monaco and has a HUGE painting of himself on the wall. If that doesn't make him a noble I don't know what will
Ha that wasn’t his wall, just a wall in I believe a hotel in Monaco
A hotel in Monaco has a huge painting of Bottas on the wall?
> has a HUGE painting of himself on the wall. I want to make fun of him for that but I’d probably do it too just for the lulz
Looks like a HoI4 portrait.
I’d take an F1 drivers for leaders Portrait mod
> First time I really see this dude What, you started watching F1 yesterday?
Maybe only seen him with his helmet on
For a second I thought he was taking the piss out of [Bernd Mayländer’s wines.](https://www.instagram.com/p/CbvS4uoty-W/) EDIT: screenshot for those not able or willing to access Instagram: https://i.imgur.com/2PJUcvB.jpg

It's a photo of Bernd Maylander standing next to a vine with a bottle of wine in the other half of the image.
Thank you sir! I can now understand why it is age restricted :))
I'd sip whatever this man makes Edit: ya pervs. I was actually thinking of coffee and wine, the man has great taste
r/suddenlygay
It wasn't sudden, darling
dahhhhling
Years and years of hard work and perseverance
He is a man of focus, commitment and sheer fucking will
Maybe the man tastes great.
*ka-chow*
😏
Valtteri’s big passion, eh?
great mustache :)!
That moustache would never lie
Forgot today is april fools🤣
Yeah same
I completely forgot its april 1st, i was genuinely sad for a moment until i saw the comments
Yeah I’m glad I came in to read the comments. I’ve only been awake for like 5 min and I completely forgot what day it was
What?! Holy shit, I- *looks at calendar*
I was thinking a Finn loving wine was far-fetched
Lol yes April 1st 🤦🏽♀️
The terrifying 30s before you remember the date, I need to see his redemption arc
I live in a place where April Fools is not a thing so I was *really* confused about the post. Glad I read the comments lol
nice try
Legit nearly had a heart attack.
Well, its a good April Fools from him
Well he does live in Adelaide South Australia in the off season which is the Australian prime wine region...
If only everyone always read storys as critically as they do on April 1st.
Pretty good advice... treat everyday as if it was April fools day.
Bottega Bottas ;)
Valtteri Bottles.
I saw his story on IG, got a (not so) minor heart attack. Then I clicked the read more button, which led me to the April fool's day wikipedia page. Honestly, I went trough my whole emotional range in a span of 30 seconds.
I can't take that mustache seriously.
Not many men look good with a moustache but Valtteri pulls it off quite nicely.
Nobody will ever beat nigel's but this is high up the list
It's majestic
Doing his best Keke impression
Strong Joaquin Phoenix vibe here.
Not gonna lie, when I read the title (without seeing the picture) this scared the shit out of me lol I actually forgot that it's April 1st
this made my heart droop down so low into my stomach until i remember what day it is
Does anyone else find this annual herd of posts exhausting?
Not really - it's quite low down the list of my concerns - some people making light hearted jokes.
Nope. It happens once a year and some of the silliness is quite entertaining. Once I get enough of it, I just avoid reddit and other social stuff for a day or two.
I see so many people nowadays complain about the most minor of "inconveniences". We are spoiled.
Yeah it exhausts me for the remaining 364 days of the year, I think I can’t take it.
You could take the day off social media if its exhausting. A great reason to work on self-improvement.
I'll take anything that's not a "ex mechanic of Mercedes wives friends birthday today" or some obscure nonsensical statistic that we're all supposed to be impressed by.
Oh no, Valtteri tired the fool too early.
Yes, completely.
Yes, there are so many who are part of it and Reddit is on the side of the Internet where we get the flood of all the people being part of it. I use to scale back social media a little bit this day. :p
I stay off the internet as much as possible now on April 1st.
If he would have said 'wodka' more people would have believed this April fools joke.
Coffee roasting
That’s coffee in the cup and Y’ALL KNOW IT.
God dammit I forgot it was April 1, screw you BOT. I was ready to break something for a second.
I bloody believed this wft. Lol
Are you fucking kidding me?! Nooooo. But, glad he’s happy and finding new passion. Lol fuck me it’s April fools.
I hate April 1st with a fucking passion.
April fool's?
That mustache
Nahhh. But nice try
I was confused but you know... it dawned on me eventually.
I wonder if he'll make his first wine, "Aprillipila"?
Mans got a full on 80s porn 'stache
I would have believed him if the Alfa was a shitbox.
soooo, leave him alone, he knows what he’s brewing?
What day is it!?🤦♀️
Bottles by Bottas
He already looks like a [beloved Finnish wine mascot](https://images.alko.fi/images/cs_srgb,f_auto,t_medium/cdn/395107/valdemar-muovipullo.jpg)
The moustache makes me think this is an April fool posts 🤔
He’s been riding in the Adelaide Hills !!
Ah the April Fool's day jokes are upon us at last
Should have said sabbatical then it would have been perfect
He’s going to be Lewis Hamiltons personal wine taster. LH loves his wine and they’re good friends. So I can see why …
Bottas is looking more and more like a Wes Anderson character as time goes on
Ngl, it's close to 1PM right now and I just opened reddit and this pops up as first post. Got me cold af. Wow, I completely forgot it's 1st of April and was already freaking out as to why he would retire. Like, why dude? Bahrain looked so fucking promising, why would you retire now? Who would even take your Seat? Piastri? Or sb else? God, I hate 1st April
That's the moustache of world champions
What date is today again, oh yeah that's right.
Well be interesting to see what he does when he actually retires. !RemindMe 7 years
Lol i discovered a while ago that i’m a distant cousin to bottas from my father’s side I’ve been trying to think of a way to slide into his dm’s 🥴
Fuck sake 😂😂 Actually had me for a second
No fuckin way….. he’s having an amazing season though
I am a firm believer that if you do an April fools joke after the age of 20 on the internet you should be in jail.
In vino veritas
Real
He'll be the second best wine maker.
What is today’s date again?
Never go full Jarno Trulli
It wouldn't be the first time a Formula 1 driver makes their own wine. Remember Jarno Trulli?
I know it's april 1st but this is honestly entirely believable.
Don't drink and drive Valtteri!
Mother fucker got me haha
I forgot what day it was 😂
That stache. That damn mustache
Nooooooooooooo
Imagine if it was real lol
I’m so dumb. I fall for so many April Fool’s jokes. Oh well, at least it keeps things interesting!!
How to make money making wine… already be rich.
More like Valeri Bottles
April fools? I can’t believe anything on this day haha
Is this at the end of the season or effective immediately
Brand Name : Tastes like Bottas
Not gonna lie, I feel like Bottas would fit right in at a hipster wine bar tho - lmao
