bro, bro do you understand, they hated each other it was always me or him, no and. they were pre pubescent and squeaking about he pushed me i pushed him back it was nothing it was just an inchident. they were like mortal enemies or some overdramatic shit cooked up under a mop of monagasque hair like bruh you were three, any puddle was proportionally the size of the pacific. now fast forward to when theyre like three and a half and it's smiles it's the best fun of my career it's i want this for another fifteen twenty years it's i know how strong he is it's touching hands and necks and arms and looks, really really soft looks (soft_wilted_cabbage.img), and it's nice (what's nice??) bc it means we know each other well (is it nice that you met so early, is it nice that your lives met the way they did again again and again, are you glad for it????) . they went from we didn't even say goodbye to we say hellow now to try and stop this middle-of-the-media-pen debrief and we couldn't stand each other to complete tunnel vision on that podium(tm) - miss ma'am did you see those fucking smiles, that grin, the pure elation, the ecstacy - and our relationship wasn't that great to laughing together and holding each other and respecting - admiring - each other to unshakeable degrees, we have a good relationship, from literal scowls to immediate smiles when asked about the other person and from never giving a single inch on track to understanding that, to loving that, to seeing it as a mirror and loving that too, and from, from grr to like, love heart love heart, likw- DO YOU UNDERSTAND—

[vernoengine]

bro when they congratulate each other and like they don’t hug bc that’s gay or like i kinda hated you a lil bit when we were fifteen and now i don’t but like that’s already a precarious thing for me n i’m not sure where the boundaries are anymore so they just grab hands like rly firmly to pull themselves closer together and then kind of encircle their other arm around the other person and hold their bicep or shoulder so they’re basically a single little enclosed shape of bright eyes and big smiles and two chonk helmets all sectioned off from the rest of the world just staring (gazing) like soft wilted cabbage at each other for three million moments without any opening for jesus and it’s like bro. that’s gay

In this edition of “further proof that they are soulmates”, I want to talk about Max Verstappen and Charles Leclerc’s driving styles.

Charles 🤝 Max loving oversteer:

Charles 🤝 Max hating understeer:

And my favourite part…

Charles 🤝 Max making understeer work for them anyway and besting their teammates who actually prefer understeer:

Even though the chances of Max and Charles being teammates are slim to none (because Max is completely right in saying that two #1 drivers should never be on the same team together), JUST IMAGINE developing a car to suit these two.

Would it be a dream?! Because their preferences are so similar, developing towards one is the same as developing towards the other: they want responsiveness/snappiness and said fuck it - we have the talent to deal with the instability. Remember Charles’ pole lap in Singapore 2019? The madman basically went through T3 sideways (and yet went purple sector 1) and had insane snap oversteer 3 times but never lost it. Remember when Alex Albon was Max’s teammate, and Alex also prefers cars with oversteer… but then he saw just how much oversteer Max likes and called it “a whole different world of front [end]”?

Or perhaps the car would become an abomination, a MONSTROSITY with so much fucking oversteer, so insanely snappy and on a knife’s edge, and the rear would be so loose and unstable - that no other mortal would be able to handle it at all? Like just imagine the poor young driver’s test. Some innocent, wide-eyed academy driver shows up to drive “the fastest car on the grid” but goes rear first off of T1 every single time because the car is fucking IMPOSSIBLE to drive if you’re not Max or Charles. If one of them loses an appendix and can’t race for one weekend, the team might as well not field a second driver because trying to get someone else to cope with that car would be embarrassing for everyone involved.

It would be the best car by a mile on the entire grid.

It would be the worst fucking travesty of engineering on the entire grid too - utterly undrivable for mere mortals.

i’m literally crying over this send help

max n sharl :)

[vernoengine]

at least try to hide it max

Max is asking about pace of the cars ahead of him GP tells him about Charlie's pace! Then Max asks "what about the cars between us" he said US awwwww!!

[vernoengine]

max being a cunt and refusing to elaborate on anything is actually why I love him. HE SAID WHAT HE SAID AND HE WILL NOT BE REPEATING HIMSELF.

sorry some of us are not boring and prefer drivers standing their ground instead of letting others use them as a doormat

[vernoengine]

after max said he will definitely help checo in abu dhabi i just envisioned him crashing into charles in the most absurd way possible and then going all “i don’t know what happened guys this is unbelievable!” and after the race he just goes to the garage and says “i told you i’d help”
