In-Ear Monitor Drivers: The Heart of Exceptional Sound

In-ear monitors (IEMs) have revolutionized the way we experience music, delivering high-quality audio in a compact form factor. At the core of this auditory excellence lies the IEM driver. In this technical article, we embark on a journey into the world of IEM drivers, exploring their types, construction, and how they contribute to delivering exceptional sound quality. 1. Types of IEM…

Gonna be so real, I don’t even dislike anyone on the grid. The more drivers you like the more gay fanfiction you can consume.

So I saw a few drivers talking about Colapinto’s start, and here it is.

It’s crazily impressive how he dives into the first corner

jokes aside i think mclaren seriously need to do a welfare check on lando. the move itself was far too reckless, he took responsibility for the incident far too quickly almost before he stopped the car, all his interviews he struggles to make eye contact, his answers are short, curt, and very self-flagellating. he shouldn’t be doing public and staged driver apologies in the media pen. i say all of this as a loud and proud lando hater who cheered when he crashed, but i also say this as someone who has struggled with mental health before. i do think mclaren has a duty of care responsibilities for their drivers—if one driver struggled more with quali than the other, they’d be given opportunities in a simulator to improve upon that specific skill wouldn’t they? why is mental fortitude any different? just because lando is more prone to negative spirals and bad mental health than oscar doesn’t mean that his team gets out of giving him the support needed to overcome it.

"i don't believe in a lot of things, but i think the one thing i've learnt this year is probably to believe in myself" - lando norris, abu dhabi post race press conference

[broareweabouttoviberightnow]

thinkin real hard about Steve n Johnny drag racin tonight. at race end the other drivers pour outta their cars lookin for a fight cause who the FUCK was that out there drivin like THAT. n Johnny gets out like MAN that shit was FUN!! we gotta do that again!! n the other drivers are seriously thinkin about beatin the ever lovin shit outta this new kid cause who the HELL does he think he is. n suddenly out comes Steve n Jesus they know Steve. Steve who's known for holdin his damn own in a fight. so they back off. but the second no one's lookin he's on his knees KISSIN the damn ground. meanwhile Johnny's got enough adrenaline pumpin through him to kill ten men. if they were to pick that fight it would NOT have been Steve they would have needed to worry about.

Veilguard is optimized like gods intended tbh. It also looks amazing, runs without bugs (I encountered none), and has actual stylization to it instead of being “realistic” looking slop that every game of the recent years is trying to be for some reason regardless of genre.

Under the Weather

Synopsis: You’re sick. George’s sick. Someone else is probably going to get sick. It’s an interesting last race in Abu Dhabi

young female driver reader x 2023 F1 grid

A/N: this fic is pretty vague so i’m not going to give the reader a team or teammate, we just know that she’s a driver on the grid because that’s all we really need to know

. so

. you think you caught it in vegas

. it was colder than you were used to

. you barely got any sleep

. and even though you’re around hundreds of people every race weekend, las vegas felt more packed than a normal race would be

. and you were seated next to george, who’s been feeling sick for a few days at that point, for nearly all pre-race activities

. it was probably all of these combined that gave you a sore throat, stuffy nose, pounding headache, and persistent cough

. you knew the second you woke up thursday morning

. “it’s going to be a shitty weekend”

. the grid, however, did not know until thursday afternoon

. you came into the press conference room, bundled up in a long sleeve and hoodie, nose red with a scratchy voice

. you sit beside an amused lewis, resisting all urges to lay your head against the back of the couch and drift off

. “you okay y/n?”

. the only response he gets is a groan and small shake of the head

. “i’ll get you some tea when we’re done here love, you’ll be okay”

. lewis, who was always your favorite but now has new reasons to be favored, lets you rest your head against his shoulder and close your eyes while you all wait for the conference to begin

. word spreads by the end of the media day, and suddenly you have new reactions from the grid

. daniel walks through the paddock with you, never afraid of a little cough

. “lewis tells me you’ve been on your death bed over here. anything I can do?”

. he insist on giving you a hug and the recipe for chicken soup that he learned from his mum and now swears by

. max, who is afraid of a little cough, is the one who makes sure you’re not being harassed when trying to sleep

" max? who’s under the blanket-”

. “shush. she’s trying to sleep”

. “but who’s-”

. “I said shush”

. lando, a man who’s all too familiar with being clumsy, probably saves you a million times from walking into doorways, a drowsiness affect from the fever you keep insisting you don’t have

. he’ll keep a constant eye on you and hand on your shoulder as a precaution

. “let’s not go over there, that’s a wall”

. “y/n!”

. “mhm?” you’d say, eyes half closed with tiredness

. “that’s a door love, jeez, we should put a bell on you”

. carlos and charles, drivers who’ve had loads of experience taking care of sick younger siblings, make a team effort of ensuring you’re doing your best to get better

. “did you drink the water bottle I gave you?”

. “no”

. “did you drink anything today?”

. “no”

. “oh mon dieu you’re going to kill yourself like this”

. “just try to eat this okay? i know you’re not hungry amiga, but we have a race tomorrow, you need to eat something”

. “i got you more medicine, this one says it should take care of the cough and sneeze so you won’t have to worry about it during the race”

. and then there’s george, your sick partner in crime

. you two make a habit of trapping yourselves in one of your driver’s room

. half to prevent the sickness from spreading further, half to just be left alone

. you guys complain a lot

. take turns choosing movies to watch to pass the time

. reminding the other to take medicine, even though there’s a good chance that person probably hasn’t taken any medicine either

. and passing a bag of cough drops between each other

. as a teammate and friend, lewis tries to talk you two out of racing

. but neither budge

. you get into your car, nose still red and voice still scratchy

. and power through the race, just as you’d been taught to do

. george gets a podium and you get a good points finish, the best results you could’ve asked for considering the conditions

. and stumble out of your car once more, looking for a tissue and that chicken soup recipe

. you get checked on by multiple drivers, though the only response you’re able to give is a nod and thumbs up

. lewis accompanies you on your flight back home, and tries to help as much as you let him

. he feels a bit victorious when you say you wished you’d listen to him and not raced

. but the feeling is instantly replaced with sympathy for his friend, so he just nods and tells you to get some more rest

. after making sure you’re safe at home and surrounded by family and friends that swear on their hearts to take care of you, lewis leaves with congratulations on your season finish and wishes to get better

. you’re fine within a few days, you name the cause of your sickness “end of season fatiague” and ensure the drivers you made a full recovery by wednesday night

. so yeah

. it’s not fun at all to drive while you’re sick

. but it’s a bit easier when you have your friends looking out for you

short little f1 grid sick fic. let’s hope I didn’t just manifest myself a cold
