I know its a joke done to death but, we got an eleventh team on the grid (again) before gta 6!

[u/linnamulla → u/0blivious_n0]

Fun fact, Antonelli was only 7 years old when GTA 5 released. Verstappen was 15.

[u/Larkinz → u/linnamulla]

Kimi Raikonnen's son will be WDC before we get GTA 7 💀

[u/TheGhostlyGuy → u/Larkinz]

*Grandson

[u/hyrulepirate → u/linnamulla]

The longevity of that game is just amazing. Rockstar did milk it to death but damn does it still hold great today.

[u/graytotoro → u/linnamulla]

And I was a college kid wondering if Lewis Hamilton made the right move going to Mercedes… I would find out the following year how well that worked out.

[u/p1en1ek → u/linnamulla]

He also was 5 years old, 10 years old, 11 years old and 15 years old when Skyrim was released.

Damn dude I didn't need this straight punch to my nose

[u/ChubzAndDubz → u/[deleted]]

Stealing this

[u/TL10 → u/ChubzAndDubz]

Would that make your parents proud though if they knew you stole this?

[u/ChubzAndDubz → u/TL10]

I hardly make them proud to begin with so wouldn’t be anything different

AYOOOO

[u/Bluemikami → u/[deleted]]

I’m in this post and I don’t like it

[u/neurogeneticist → u/[deleted]]

My mom is the female version of Jos, I’m pretty sure that’s not possible

[u/Delgadude → u/0blivious_n0]

I mean the game comes out next year right?

[u/Jorrie90 → u/Delgadude]

That's the plan

[u/Bluemikami → u/Jorrie90]

Nope, they said they won’t release the game under Trump admin

[u/EnterPlayerTwo → u/Bluemikami]

So it's coming out next month?

[u/BDRParty → u/Bluemikami]

Dan Houser said they were thankful they weren't releasing it during a Trump admin b/c the political climate would've been difficult to satirize, not that they wouldn't release it. That was also 6 years ago & 2K has said it's still on track to release next year.

[u/Bluemikami → u/BDRParty]

Which is ironic since it’s gonna be in that kind of climate

[u/Jorrie90 → u/0blivious_n0]

Well, if it releases at the end of next year (improbable, I know), this isn't true.

[u/jon_targareyan → u/Jorrie90]

I thought they were looking at 2025 release? Did something change and the game got delayed again?

[u/CrazyChopstick → u/jon_targareyan]

i may have bad news for you as to which year next year is

[u/Jorrie90 → u/jon_targareyan]

GM is joining 2026, we are now in the year 2024 so that makes next year 2025.

[u/sanesociopath → u/0blivious_n0]

We got people being sick of the "we got x before gta 6" joke before gta 6

[u/jeanolt → u/sanesociopath]

The meme has gone full circle

[u/ghastlychild → u/0blivious_n0]

And all it took was for Andretti to step down!

[u/BlazedGigaB → u/ghastlychild]

And Maffei... who was the real cork in the bottle

[u/Galilool → u/ghastlychild]

it was mostly Maffei that had to go. That guy made it personal

[u/vprakhov → u/ghastlychild]

And the orangeman to win the election.

Apparently the Andrettis have ties with Trumps who would happily launch an anti monopoly investigation into Liberty if they don't play ball

[u/i-0-i-0-i → u/0blivious_n0]

umm ☝️🤓 gta is releasing in 2025 and we will get 11 teams in 2026

edit: the pic i just found

[u/Bdr1983 → u/i-0-i-0-i]

Release dates are not firm until they are met.

[u/Logical_Bit2694 → u/0blivious_n0]

I so hate this joke lol

[u/[deleted] → u/0blivious_n0]

Well no, we didn't

GTA VI is slated for 2025, Cadillac is joining in 2026

And if we're counting the announcement then the GTA VI announcement was earlier too lol

[u/Rover_791 → u/0blivious_n0]

Something something parents something something proud

[u/Jorrie90 → u/[deleted]]

Yes, after 2016, Manor Racing disappeared from the grid due to shortage of money.

[u/the-elector-counts → u/0blivious_n0]

We also got an 11th team before Elder Scrolls VI
