the jump from wearing a shirt that says “love who you want” to making tender homosexual love to pecco bagnaia on the floor on live television would be a lot for anyone. except for marco bezzecchi
i will always be a "they're both not normal™ about each other" brocedes truther, but ngl i really do think that nico being able to go into the paddock and both praise and criticise lewis fairly, and talk about him openly and admit that sometimes he was jealous, and he did play mind games and he doesn't regret that but he also didn't want to be that person anymore is infinitely healthier and better adjusted than lewis's "all my teammates have been better than max's [conspicuously fails to mention the only teammate to ever beat him to a championship]" and bringing up unprompted "a better teammate" at the finale of the first championship that he's properly had to fight for since nico left five years ago. like, the opposite of love isn't hate, it's indifference. and i don't think lewis is indifferent
“with the face of a good boy and the fury of a wild horse” for me joins “their swift boy racer, leclerc, is a special favourite” on the podium of article lines of all time
the audacity of sainz fans complaining about charles move at the start because "he should have defended from russel"
as if carlos wasn't right behind????
why could carlos do the defense?
It's like they think carlos can go and try to overtake charles but charles needs to play the team game and defend from russel so carlos can have his way free
carlos could've defended his damn self
it literally made no sense for charles to defend against russell instead of against carlos. he knew he could overtake the mercedes quite comfortably (which he did. it's not his fault or responsibility that carlos got stuck behind russell and had to wait for him to pit because he couldn't overtake on track) whereas being behind carlos would've complicated his race a lot
i think it's silly and a bit reductive to say it was payback for carlos' move in the sprint but honestly if it was then good for charles
