i think that many people in this fandom should go outside and touch grass for a moment, and try to remember that the drivers irl are not the same as the characters that we use for rpf fics.
"omg but i loved the characterisation of X in Y fic soooo much" that's great... but that characterisation is still not a reflection of who X is irl.
for example. "i can't believe charles said that, why would he say that? it's not who he is :/" girl. maybe that's not who he is in fic, and he probably wouldn't say that in your 21k charlos slowburn fest, but in real life, where he is a real person, he most absolutely can and did in fact say that.
just. it's fine to make the drivers say and do whatever the flying fuck you want in fic, but it's SO important to keep that line between reality and fiction firmly in mind.
#f1 rpf#rant#the things i have seen on my morning scroll.... you would not BELIEVE some of it tbh#i have genuinely seen some [redacted] girlies crying bcs charles said smth which didn't align with how they saw him for their ship#which....#i don't know how to tell this to you but... your ship is not real#*charles wtf discord react*#anyways. i know a multitude of people have said this in a multitude of ways before#but still... it remains so true#the drivers as we read about them in fic are NOT the same as the drivers who are real people irl#not in any way shape or form#and if you're delusional about that then i... don't know what to tell you except GO THE FUCK OUTSIDE & TOUCH SOME GRASS#wake up!!!#rpf is fine... but ONLY so long as we are all sane about that reality-fiction line. PLEASE.

HOW BLOODY DARE THEY#i am irrationally mad about this lmfao#i may or may not process it by writing a fic that has max at the monte carlo masters too... trying to get in charles' pants or smth...#BUT FAILING HORRIFICALLY BECAUSE PIERRE IS THERE. and charles only wants pierre#charles also avoids max like 'ew wtf are you doing here'#would that be a very toxic thing to write and do? yes of course#am i going to do it anyway?#honestly.....
