[stripedstarsblueflags]

“friends turned rivals turned teammates turned frenchmen on the podium… together”

CLOSE ENOUGH WELCOME BACK CROFTY DELIVERING THE BROCEDES EULOGY ON LIVE TV

'Should we turn on the lights?'

alex jacques the man that you are because i will literally never get over:

“His career was finished without the intervention of the late Jules Bianchi who said to Ferrari you’ve got to take this guy, you’ve got to make sure he gets to Formula 1. And what a gift that was to give.

In 2017, Charles Leclerc lost his father and in his final days, he told his father a white lie. That he’d made it to Formula 1; that he’d signed the contract. It wasn’t true then but his driving has made it true now, and look what he’s done with the opportunity.

The grandstands he saw built as a kid growing up now rise for him, and for the first time in 93 years this fabled race is won by one of their own. Charles Leclerc wins the Monaco grand prix to achieve his dream!”

(I'm literally crying typing these out, besties... And I know we can't pick just one, because so many of them hold a special place in our hearts already. If I missed one of your faves, please put it in the comments or tags, so we can all bawl relive it again.)

the biggest difference in f1 commentary is that alex jacques tells a story, while crofty just wants a memorable one liner to bring it home

and crofty has certainly had some killer lines in the past [ie. through goes hamilton; he won in spa, he wins in monza, etc, etc.]

but as time goes on crofty’s commentary has fallen flat bc people crave a story, a narrative to get behind and alex jacques is delivering race after race

“this– this isn’t even fiction, you could not write this”

james hinchcliffe. i’m gonna hold your hand when i say this

Sorry Alex, they planned this. Charles definitely expected to see Max in his rear view today 😂

Tbh I pay for f1tv because their commentators are super good at appearing unbiased. Alex Jacques doesn’t fuck around… like he is not a journalist. He doesn’t stir the pot .. and him and jolyon as a duo are absolutely perfect, they are so goofy together and nerds

[midnight-chevy]

OSCAR PIASTRI WINS FOR THE FIRST TIME IN FORMULA 1!!! ITS A ONE-TWO FOR MCLAREN!!!!
