Oh wait is it a toxic family when the father refuses to take accountability and instead blames the kids for his mistakes? And as a result the kids are unwillingly shoehorned into roles where one is the golden perfectionistic never allowed to criticise the family child, and the other is the black sheep difficult selfish disobedient child?

And the golden child is about to explode because he’s never allowed to have his own opinions and so when he feels real frustration at his father, he can’t land the blame there and so he’s conditioned to blame his sibling instead?

And the black sheep child just takes the criticism and the blame and learns to become overly defensive, because he’s learned no one will watch his back but himself, not even his sibling?

Oh wait it’s not a toxic family.

It’s Scuderia Ferrari

#take all the misplaced anger between Charlos and direct it at Fred Vasseur #may Charles and Carlos both realise this #look this post is parasocial and I take that #but it’s literally a toxic family dynamic #it’s a situation where each party becomes more and more entrenched because those patterns are the only way they can defend themselves #Charles is in a pattern where he thinks if you just respect what the team says it will all be okay #because it must be okay? right? right?#Carlos is in a pattern where he has lost all trust in the pit wall and needs to start strategising for himself #and almost seems to accept that Charles will come out of the car angry #and it’s all rooted in Fred Vasseur and the team’s absolute lack of accountability #how hard is it to say to your drivers ‘we messed up your strategy’#‘Carlos should not have been parallel to you on pit exit’#‘we should have pitted Carlos earlier’#but no. Ferrari won’t. and I know they haven’t because there’s not been a lick of accountability publicly #here’s the thing. I have my own opinions about whether Carlos or Charles’s reactions to media after the race were appropriate or not #but what I am convinced of is that those reactions of frustration and defensiveness come from this exact team culture #and the pattern reinforces itself again and again #charles leclerc #f1 #carlos sainz #las vegas gp 2024
