imagine you were a small boy in king’s lynn. your parents are well-off but they’re not rich enough for the kinds of things you want to accomplish. so you put on a suit at fourteen and you make a presentation. A List of Reasons Why You Deserve To Achieve Your Dreams. your parents are too busy to be grown-ups, so you become one. you learn to sell yourself at a young age, because the dream you want is a bussiness at the end of the day. it’s cut throat and bitter and you learn to play by its rules. you learn that you must have value to be worth anything.

you learn that love is a transaction.

so you become good. so good. you win every single race and championship so that everybody has to love you. your reward? a car that’s so bad that you cry when you get your first points. your dream becomes a grind, day-in and day-out. even when you’re so close, you’re so far from winning. but it’s ok, because the promise is that you will one day be in a car that has eight championships, racing alongside one of your heroes. so you have that hunger to prove something. when they call you up for even one race, you’re dynamite. you’re so close to winning, but just like all things in your life, you’re unlucky again. and when you finally make it to that car, your Promised Land, you find the Land is barren. destitute. an illusion. still, you cannot give up on your dream, even when you’re hated by the people whose love you crave. your country has its favourites and it’s not you. but you believe and believe, because no one has ever believed in you and if you don’t, who will? even when you get a rookie wonder boy teammate who gets all the things you never did, you believe. and suddenly, the car is finally good. you taste champagne again, stand on that prized first step. but then. in your home, in your country, you realize the car was never for you.

and you realize that love is still a transaction.

Max Verstappen immediately calling George Russell very beautiful is the kind of vibe I want with my own arch-nemesis
