let's spread the word

hello everyone,

as I announced yesterday, I have something (small) to share with you today. Since I read and take each and every one of your comments and messages to heart, it's time to share the story with more than just you (even though you all stole my heart and it's yours forever). The Deal series has gotten more attention than I could have ever imagined - which is why I've been asked by several to share it on other platforms as well. So - welcome to AO3 and Wattpad! These two links will redirect you to my only other profiles where I officially post the story. This wouldn't have been possible without my beloved friend @elisysd. Dear, your input, your creativity and your motivational nudges have motivated me to do this. Thank you for everything - and the awesome slogan. This one is for you.

Also, a big thank you to everyone who's made this possible. I have a few people in mind and when the time is right, I would like to dedicate something to you. But we're not there yet. Nevertheless, I am grateful beyond measure.

Thank you all for taking this (small) step with me and motivating me to keep writing this story that I love so much.

love you lots,

cherry

Nobody talks about the absolute GORILLA GRIP effect that F1 has on new fans discovering the motorsport?? Like,, you dip a toe into the lore and suddenly you’re being power vacuumed in. Suddenly you’re neck-deep in a 10k essay on the tragedy that was Brocedes. What do you mean they were best friends-turned-rivals. Is this fanfiction,,?? Why am i suddenly invested in the dubious relationship between a frenchman and a japanese man?? What do you mean Shumacher took care of Vettel and now Vettel is taking care of Schumacher?? What do you mean this motorsport is actually about family and love and tragedy and grief and loss and friendship and everything in between???

Tonight I am thinking about Finnick Odair. Finnick who was 14 when he was labeled “desirable” and sold to the people of the Capitol. Finnick who they turned into an object, until he was nothing more than a half naked boy wrapped in fishing net and paraded through a crowd who would have loved to see him in less. Finnick who dared to love, and who’s love was held against him. Finnick who survived ten years of the capitols abuse, who endured it, if only to protect the one person who he could not have bared to see harmed.

when you say you're unlucky do you mean like a "I lost hydraulics and crashed in the formation lap" or "I kept it clean during at the start, went from p17 to 12 and then a tyre, as though sent from God, struck me down in a biblical, guided missile way"

i'm new to f1 and wasn't around when Charles gave Ferrari the silent treatment so could you please tell me when was that? what happened?

thank youuu in advanceeee 😊

Okay since there are a couple of questions on Charles and his silent treatment.

The inherent pettiness and spite of this man is one of my favourite scholarly topics, actually. It’s well-known and well-documented that Charles doesn’t really… get angry (anymore). No, the man holds grudges like no other. There are a truly glorious examples of the extent of this.

For example, as @valyrfia has pointed out previously, Pierre once said that when they had a falling out when they were younger, Charles didn’t talk to him for months. Even as a small mouse, he was absolutely ruthless. I don’t think we need to mention Austria 2019 again, but that’s yet another great example of a scheming and vengeful move. Mind you, Max was interviewed after the meeting with the stewards, saying him and Charles were perfectly fine and all was well. Meanwhile, on the flight back, Charles unfollows (probably while looking at Max dead in the eye, too, but that’s neither here nor there).

Now, the Ferrari incident I mentioned. There had been trouble with Mattia Binotto for a while in his last season at Ferrari at it was clear that him and Charles weren’t… well.

However, what is often considered to be the final nail in Binotto’s coffin is Silverstone 2022, where Charles was absolutely furious with the team. The generally accepted narrative is that he refused to speak to Binotto afterwards, this leading to his former TP come to Monaco, but it was too late. Charles had made up his mind, and as we all know, Binotto eventually left, with Fred coming in as his replacement. Until this day, we don’t have Charles speak about or of Binotto, or even mention his name.

His dimples might be cute, but Charles can be absolutely ruthless. He doesn’t forget, or forgive. Which, the fact that Charles still hasn’t commented on or posted anything related to COTA after he always went back his words and talked about a team effort and forza ferrari sempre etc. previously this season…

I’d be concerned, is all I’m saying.

(If anyone has more examples of Charles and his grudge throughout the years, please feel free to add. I could talk about it forever)

nah that's mad insane though, imagine getting your panties so fucking twisted that you send such threats that's got people worried about someone's safety. I understand getting annoyed at certain drivers but let me remind you that it's your own driver who ruins his own races and some of you take it too damn far, sport should be fun and not whatever the fuck this is.
