Yeah, that comment was mental. I'm in Australia and over 55% of our mobile phone users are on Apple devices. iMessage is everywhere. Guy knows nothing.
Right. The world is the USA and the rest of it is UK&Australia. If that wasn't the case, why would the aliens always contact the US president and speak English? iMessage is definitely the dominant messaging platform of the humanity.

The cluelessness of the Anglosphere about the rest of the World is very entertaining and sad at the same time.
I don't know why people don't look at India more. And China too, but in this case we know the Chinese use WeChat. India has about 3 times more people than the US, UK and Australia combined. China and India make up more than a third of all people on Earth, but rarely ever mentioned.
Indians use Whatsapp, and so does the fourth biggest country in the world, Indonesia.
It is always shocking when people make such baseless claims like "Everyone users iMessage" when a very simple google search would show them this is not the case.
It is a very big world out there and so few realize this.
Australian here and I don't know anyone who uses iMessage (knowingly at least - my Mum uses an iPhone and presumably does occasionally use the default messaging app for contacting other iPhone users).
The few people I don't use WA with I use FB messenger or SMS.
I think the more you understand about the race, strategy, technology, rivalries, and race-craft will definitely help you enjoy a GP much more. It's combination of all these things that make it that much more than just cars going around a track quickly. The Austrian GP just gone was very exciting, especially the end!
Try watch a few more races and even check out the F1 subreddit /r/formula1 - its a good community that share plenty of news, clips from new and old races etc - and if you have any questions, they're all very helpful
