Community guidelines

Watch Motorsport is for fans of every kind of racing. Argue about the racing as hard as you like; keep it about the racing.

Do

• Disagree with ideas, not people. Rivalries are part of the sport; abuse isn’t.
• Mark spoilers for races that haven’t aired everywhere yet.
• Link sources for news and rumours.
• Welcome new fans. Everyone started somewhere.

Don’t

• Harass, threaten or insult anyone, including drivers, riders, teams and officials.
• Post hate speech or attack anyone for their race, ethnicity, nationality, religion, gender, sexuality or disability.
• Post sexual content, graphic violence or anything illegal.
• Share or ask for illegal streams, piracy or ways around region locks.
• Spam, advertise or post the same thing over and over.
• Share anyone’s personal information.

Moderation

Every post is checked automatically when you submit it, by a word filter and an AI safety check. Posts that break these guidelines aren’t published, and you’re told why. New accounts can post links once they’re a week old and have a few comments up. Three posts turned away in a week means no posting for a day.

Anyone signed in can report a post; when three people report it, it comes down. The site owner can restore posts taken down by mistake and suspend accounts. You must be 13 or older to take part.
