PLEASE HELP

I was reading a Lando Norris x reader fanfic, where she is Ollie’s (Lando’s brother) childhood friend, and Lando was always in love with her. I couldn’t finish it and I lost it 😭

I just remember that she breaks up with her bf.

If anyone can tell me who is the author so I can finish it, I would love the for years!

i've seen a lot of people talk about lando fans needing to touch grass because we're mad about that picture, but you don't understand why we're mad. honestly, i have no reason to this, but i do need to get this off my chest.

a lot of lando fans (myself included) tried to ignore the way mclaren has been treating lando off track, as well as on track. we're not going to touch the subject of on track here. we're only talking about off track here. their instagram page has more oscar/oscar's car or joint pictures than that of just lando. they do post lando, but it's always in the second or the third slide. it's not the front of it, so it looks like they're posting oscar more.

now, the issue with that picture is that its fine that they clicked the picture. mistakes happen, oscar saw that he was covering lando, and he moved over for another picture where lando was visible as well. so, we, as fans, know that there are two versions of that picture that exists. what bothers us is that they not only posted it on their instagram with a heartfelt team related caption, but also made it their twitter header.

now, the instagram thing could have gone multiple different ways than the one mclaren chose to do it. they could have added a funny caption instead, or they couldn't done a little drawing of lando, just something cute, something funny, something that feels included. instead, they chose a picture where lando is completely covered. like, when i first saw the picture, i didn't even notice that lando was behind oscar. so, they chose that picture, they chose that caption, and on top of that, they chose to only tag one driver out of the two drivers they have.

and then, to go on and make that picture their twitter header? knowing full well that there is a version of that same moment where lando is, in fact, visible? that speaks volumes.

it took them over 2k comments on instagram before they changed their header picture on twitter, and before they tried to do damage control by posting lando more.

i'm not saying that the team should stop posting oscar or something. do not twist my words. i'm saying that there should be a balance of how much they post each driver, and if they're posting a team picture, it should include the entire team.

seeing that picture, as a lando fan, it is really disheartening. to us, it feels like the team have forgotten him, or put him on the back burner. to us, it feels like they have a bias and they're not being subtle about it. it kills us because we have seen lando hold his team higher than himself, work for the team instead of himself, count every win as the team's, and every loss as his own. we have seen lando do that for years, but mclaren seem to have completely left him in the trenches.

for every "mentally weak" comment regarding lando that comes up in the press, there are other drivers and other teams that are saying it's not true and are defending lando. his own team never say a word. for every mistake or bad quali/race position, lando blames himself and mclaren let him take the brunt of it from the media and the fans, and then a week later, come out with a small article somewhere about how it was actually the team's fault, not lando's.

people underestimate the power of social media sometimes. you think it's not a big deal that lando's being posted, just in the second or the third slide? sponsors only look at the face. the face on their instagram page is not lando. the way they're promoting both drivers differently is clear, and it's clear because that what we're seeing, what's being shown to us. mclaren are trying to be subtle about it, but their subtlety left the conversation a long time ago.

the narratives that they push about lando being weak, having reached his highest potential already, buckling under pressure, all of it could be debunked if the team spoke out about it and supported their driver. they're not, so these narratives are being shoved down people's throats. the hate comments on their own instagram posts are vile, and it doesn't take that long to put out a statement that those need to stop, that the fans don't know what's going on behind the scenes, and that the fans have no right to judge a driver on things they can't do. it's not that difficult, but it really seems like mclaren would rather burn to the ground than support their driver.

i don't expect everyone to understand this. i know there's going to be people who come at me and say that i'm being a conspiracy theorist or i'm overthinking this or whatever. but, if you haven't seen a person, or have been a person, who has given your all to someone or something, and get close to nothing in return, this is the type of behaviour that cannot be ignored.

is it Mclaren crushing Lando's dreams of a championship ? Is it about the longer you ignore the tension between you and your teammate you will be crushed under it ? Is it about how you fear to be invalidated by your own trans peers because you are't trans enough ? Or the fact that girl inside that you bury inside will kill you in the outside ? Who the fuck knows, it's up to you to deceide.

reblogs are appriciated !!!!

The double standards and bias deep rooted in Mclaren should be studied. I do notice that Stella is watching Piastri on the podium…of course he is. You shouldn’t miss the driver you constantly prioritise. I am so tired of this insufferable team. Lando has given everything for this team, where is the loyalty, where is the backing, where is the support? 

How is Lando (no matter how talented he is) supposed to do well this season when he not only has to race against the others but his own team. A team that despite its desperation to paint “family and friendship” values consistently lies, gaslights and decepts their driver over the radio… when he is trying to concentrate going 200MPH. 

A team that uses a driver they have seen grow up from a literal teenager weakness and documented MH struggles against him, I am not asking for Lando to be handed wins (unlike his teammate) I am asking for compassion, I am asking for equal treatment. 

The situation and dialogue going over the team radio is disgusting. Even when it is not manipulative and coercive, it is just not informative. Lando has to fight for the crucial information he needs, he needs to fight for good or even just competent strategy and he needs to fight this car/team. 

Despite this, and failing brakes Lando still pulled a P2 in China so this highlights the strength,the pace (as he was often ahead of Piastri and having to manage due to Mclaren not allowing him to race) and the sheer talent he continues to display.

I’ve said it for years but I’ll say it again. People want Lando to be the 2019 version of himself. Timid with no self-confidence and imposter syndrome.

Y’all want him to be bashful and apprehensive of the other drivers, y’all want him to giggle so much that he cries in press conferences, y’all want him to look at George and Alex not as equals but as heroes.

Lando is not 19 anymore. He’s gained confidence through the years and he’s found himself in this sport and seems to finally look at himself not as someone who lucked into the sport but as someone who deserves to be there.

He’s paid his dues through the years. He’s had a shitbox, a mediocre car and now a car that is worthy of his talent. Is he perfect? No, nothing about him is perfect. He’s flawed both on and off track, but he’s resilient, talented, insanely hard working and he has never ever been complacent in the years he’s been in F1. He’s championship material (and enough former drivers have repeatedly said the same) and now he’s a championship contender at the age of 24, and nothing anyone will throw at him or scream into the void or send him online will change that.

no but actually imagine you're lando norris. you had a team dominating f1 for multiple years chasing you, and you still stayed loyal to midfield mclaren. everyone called you stupid for that. everyone said you'd never win a championship with that mentality. everyone accused you of being too afraid to battle max. you insisted you wanted to win races and championships with mclaren and believed in their ability to get there. now, you are battling max for a championship. that same team you've been loyal to refuses to give you any loyalty back. in fact, their new team principal just solidifies negative things you've been told your entire career by always speaking about how much mentally stronger and how much of a champion's mentality your teammate has. you get emotionally abused and gaslit by that same team principal into gifting that teammate a win. that team principal promises you the teammate will support you in your championship fight after all that abuse and manipulation, but he doesn't and refuses to comment when asked in the media if he'd even be willing to do it. then that team principal gives an interview about that same teammate being the future of the team. despite threatening your spot on the team if you could not be a team player mere weeks ago, but it's crickets and nothing but praise when teammate says he's not interested in playing the team game. imagine you're lando norris, and mental abuse aside, you might as well have just got backstabbed and slapped in the face by andrea stella and mclaren.
