tw for discussion of diet culture, eating disorders and body image in F1

knowing that drivers are forced to mandate strict diets and that many of them suffer eating disorders (coulthard's spoken about his bulimia, this is not an isolated case) makes it a bit difficult for me to watch fans talk about drivers bodies in certain ways. there are patterns here- people regularly thirst over the thinness of a driver's waist, the prominence of their collarbones, the veins on their arms that can only get that visible through dehydration.

and i know that to an extent this is about personal preference but also like. please consider why drivers look like that when they're meant to be athletes. please consider why those are your preferences and how they can impact other people that see your posts.
