#'Nico's talking ab Lew again!!!!!!' but it's the same old story. because it's part of the bigger reason he's there

[blorbocedes]

there's the same old narrative going around that "nico was invited to a university to talk about sustainability and obsessed over lewis hamilton instead"

and like you need to understand that. he is going to a auditorium of 18 year olds who were literally zygotes 🤏 when he retired and if they're not actively watching f1 they might've never heard of him. so how does he introduce himself, and why is a petrol guzzling sports driver even talking about sustainability at all? chances are even if you don't know f1, you know lewis hamilton, and the childhood best friend who beat him is a compelling story to segue into hybrid cars and EVs to an audience who might otherwise not care. it's being an effective public speaker.
