Austria 2016

-I might have Pavlov-ed myself into believing that car sounds make me happy

-Nico Hulkenburg is p2??!

-Why are there so many grid penalties- what happened in this qualifying session?

-I hate watching races where Nico qualifies well, I always have to confront the fact that he actually never stays there in the end

-Oh it’s Seb’s birthday!

-“Could this be the day that Force India capitalize on Nico Hulkenburg’s top qualifying position?” Don’t make it worse please

-Oh that’s not a good start- Wehrlein is in the wrong grid spot

-“Nico Hulkenburg has lost a place or two” :/

-“Jenson Button already forming a bit of a buffer for his former teammate” Yay DRS train

-Aah Nico vs Nico

-Nico R overtaking here much faster than he did in Canada

-Nico H pitting already?

-“Okay Daniel, we might be stopping soon, push now, push now”

-Very impressed by Lewis going long on those tires and still maintaining pace

-“I do think we need to just keep Raikkonen in mind a little bit because he’s driving himself into contention” Yes, let’s go!

-No way Nico’s taking those tires to the end

-Nice, Hulkenburg’s still in the points

-Nevermind, I spoke that into non-existence

-Ohmygod no wait, Nico fought back

-And he’s lost it again

-Did Nico R just successfully undercut Lewis?

-Ayy Ferrari called in Kimi too late. They were 1-2 and now Kimi’s in p6

-Hehe Kevin being a menace

-Why is Nico H pitting again??

-Seb?? Ohmygod?? Did his tire just burst?

-“Has Ferrari left it too long to bring him into the pits?” Aaah I’m going to scream

-Him just sitting there on the track is awful

-I have realized just now, watching Nico leading this race, that I’ve never actually watched a race where he wins. What the hell?

-I completely missed the safety car pit stop games because of that realization

-I don’t think any of the top five cars pit again though?

-So cute all the cars following the safety car through the pit lane

-“Red Bull sitting pretty, Verstappen and Ricciardo 3 and 4”

-Whyyy is Nico Hulkenburg p16?!

-“There’s some Ferrari hanging off the front of that Mercedes” Hehe

-Yesss Checo! Double overtake!

-Checo practically carried that team fr

-Nico and Kevin getting penalties basically at the same time. Their teammate agenda started early

-Felipe Nasr leading a DRS train>>

-“Nico Rosberg leads by two seconds” Ohmygod am I finally about to watch him win?

-“There are twenty of them on track but it’s looks like there are thirty on there doesn’t it, with the amount of scraps” It really does! With everyone so bunched up

-Checo and Massa have been battling for so long, they overtook the same guy together to continue battling

-“I’m really missing radio communication in f1” I too would like to hear more radios

-“Jenson Button is having a good afternoon isn’t he?” WHY ISN’T NICO HULKENBURG??!

-“Verstappen- the non-Mercedes man, in a podium position”

-NH: “Guys I think I’m bailing out, there’s so much vibration” Ajhshsbsbhsggsg

-Man I forgot about his five second penalty, he might as well have retired

-LH: “Okay Lewis close that gap as much as you can, it’s hammer time”

-Ooh good pit stop for Lewis

-Good pit stop for Nico too

-They really be so evenly matched

-“This is going to get punchy isn’t it” Bring it on!

-LH: “Why is he on a softer tire than me?!”

-Huh when did Kvyat retire?

-It’ll be hilarious if Max wins this race by going till the end on those tires

-Honestly it must be so terrifying being hunted down by both Mercedes rocket ships

-Ah that was a good move from Nico

-Ughh traffic while trying to overtaking must be the worsttt

-Never seen Ricciardo and Button battling before. This is fun

-Yesss late on the breaks babyyy

-Massa, Alonso and Hulkenburg retiring?!

-Yes traffic must suck. I’m pretty sure Nico’s cursing them out right about now

-Ohmygodd no wayyyy!!!

-Checo?!

-“He’s been passed by the Red Bull and the Ferrari as well!”

-How did all of this happen in the last lap?!?

-I thought Nico was going to win!!!

-LH: “I was on the outside. It wasn’t me that crashed”

-I’m in such shock, I’m still reeling

-“I don’t think there will be a hug between the two drivers” These commentators just do their best to add more drama don’t they?

-On the flip side though, Kimi podium!! (Also Carlos points!)

-Ooh this is Max’ second podium (Man’s first podium was a win- how cool)

-MV: “What happened there?”

LH: “ *scoffs* He made a mistake into turn 1 in the last lap”

KR: *watching with interest *

-I love debriefs with the older drivers

PORSCHE PENSKE NO. 7 (F. Nasr, N. Tandy & L. Vanthoor) ☆ Overall Winners of the 2025 12 HOURS OF SEBRING.

[coimbrabertone]

South America, Australia, (Jim) France, Germany!

It's a stretch and a half of a title but it's a good bit so I don't care. Let's talk about this last weekend of racing.

We'll start chronologically with the 12 Hours of Sebring last Saturday, where Porsche Penske Motorsport took a 1-2 finish for the German manufacturer. It wasn't the most exciting Sebring race, but we got a little bit of everything with Lamborghini leading at one point only to be caught napping on a restart and retire, the BMWs got pole for the race but fell back, and we saw the debut of the new V12 Aston Martin, which is cool.

Ultimately though, nobody could hold back Porsche today.

Felipe Nasr, Nick Tandy, and Laurens Vanthoor won both opening rounds of the season, winning the big endurance races of Daytona and Sebring.

With this, Nick Tandy has not only won the Triple Crown of endurance racing with his 2015 Le Mans win and these two 2025 wins, but also won the 2015 Petit Le Mans overall - in a GTLM car, no less! - along with the 2018 24 Hours of Nürburgring and the 2020 Spa 24 Hours.

Tandy has won so many big endurance races that they've made a new name for it.

So long Triple Crown, it's now about the Big Six.

Porsche has given us the Germany aspect, now we'll move onto the Australian Grand Prix, which fell on Saturday for us Americans.

I know I've shat on F1 a lot on this blog, but I'm legitimately happy with the Australian Grand Prix and this is the most interested I've been in Formula One in a couple of years.

The reason is simple: we had competition, we had changeable conditions, and we had something truly rare in modern F1: the teams were legitimately caught off guard.

McLaren ran 1-3 in the early stages of the race, with Max initially threatening Lando in the Red Bull, but he was having to push it to the limit. We saw Max lockup just ahead of Oscar Piastri, lose the position, run over a puddle, and then completely lose pace as he couldn't make the tyres work, dropping fourteen seconds off the McLarens.

This left the McLarens in a dominant position, and Piastri was gaining on Lando for the lead. However, with a 1-2 in the rain, McLaren made a very Jordan-at-Spa-1998-esque call and told Oscar to hold position.

An annoying but understandable choice - nobody wants to lose a 1-2 because their drivers crashed into each other.

What was less understandable is that Oscar then had a snap of oversteer and nearly crashed while Lando opened up a three second gap, at which point McLaren told him they could now race.

Bit late for that, eh?

In any case, around lap 33, they all start pitting to make a brave switch onto the dry tyres. On the line, this is the fastest way around the circuit, but just off the line, there's still a lot of water around the circuit. Not only that, but there's more rain on the way.

They have to pit because the dry line is burning the intermediate tyres away, but they'll need the inters again before the race is done.

Then Fernando Alonso lost it through the fast sector two and brought out the safety car, and that SC brought them all the way up to 42...right before it started raining.

The perilous moment of the race came at the end of lap 43, when both McLarens went off at the end of the lap and into the gravel and the grass. Lando managed to recover and rejoin the track before pitting, but behind him...Piastri lost traction in the penultimate corner and spun off into the wet grass, spending the next lap beached before finally reversing his way out of the grass and back into the race.

All of this gave Max the lead, but with slick tyres on a wet track, he was crawling like Marco Andretti at Belle Isle that one year.

Max pit, but the Ferraris stayed out despite a spin for Leclerc, putting Lewis in the lead while Charles in second. For a brief moment...it looked like it could be a fairytale start to Hamilton's Ferrari career...but it kept raining.

The safety car came out due to a crash by Liam Lawson, but Ferrari had to pit regardless, dropping to 9th and 10th.

Up front, it was Lando Norris leading from Max Verstappen and George Russell.

I will admit, given the tricky conditions and that Lando no longer had Oscar Piastri to act as a rear gunner, I figured that Lando was screwed. Max was gonna take the lead and drive off into the sunset like he did in Brazil.

Only that's not what happened, Lando and the McLaren weathered the pressure, and in fact, on the initial laps, it seemed like Max was more defending from Russell than threatening Norris for the lead.

This didn't last though, as Max got up to pace and pressured Lando again, especially after Lando made a mistake in turn six, giving Max DRS again.

This time I thought Lando was surely going to crumble...but no.

Lando held on, he took the win, and Max had to settle for second. George Russell was third after barely getting any camera time whatsoever during the race, while Andrea Kimi Antonelli made an audacious pass on Alexander Albon on the last lap. Initially, Antonelli was penalized and dropped to fifth, but Mercedes appealed successfully, and the Italian's fourth place was reinstated.

Still, fifth place for Albon was Williams' best race in years, giving the team something to celebrate in spite of Carlos Sainz's opening lap crash in the final corner.

Lance Stroll was sixth, Nico Hulkenberg was seventh, scoring more points in one race than Sauber did in all of 2024 and being the highest Ferrari-powered car. Leclerc was eighth having drawn first blood over Hamilton in the teammate battle - not that either of them will be particularly happy with that race - while Piastri was ninth in an impressive recovery drive. Lewis Hamilton was tenth, scoring the last point in a race of increasingly unhinged radio transmissions between Ferrari's drivers and Ferrari's engineers.

A race so crazy it's ended with McLaren and Mercedes tied for the lead in the constructors' championship.

A very fun, old school chaotic Australian Grand Prix.

Onto South America for the Argentine Grand Prix.

Yes, MotoGP is still a thing this year, but with Marc Marquez dominating by winning every race while Alex Marquez has finished second in all four races - two sprints, two GPs - this year, your opinion on the season will vary based on what you think of the Marquez family.

If you're a Marquez fan, you're having the time of your life.

If you're a Marquez hater, you're gonna be miserable.

If you're a neutral, well...it ain't much of a show.

Perhaps that's harsh given that this time around, Alex Marquez was in the lead for most of the race and Marc was having to push hard to pass his little brother, but in the end Marc did, and then he ran away with the win.

Franco Morbidelli was third, getting his first podium since Jerez 2021 and the first since that massive leg injury in 2021 that reduced Morbidelli from 2020 championship contender to a bit of a joke on the 2022 and 2023 Yamahas.

So there is that.

Onto Las Vegas, with its Eifel Tower, much like France. Get it? It makes the David Bowie joke work, right? No? Well, what about Jim France? Jim France runs NASCAR, so can we use that gag? No? Well screw it, I'm gonna do it anyway - I want my blogpost to be a Dancing in the Street reference, dammit!

I won't spend too much time given this is already a long blogpost, but I'm very happy for Josh Berry. This is a driver who has clawed and struggled to get into NASCAR to begin with, then he finally got his big break at Stewart-Haas Racing just to find out that the team has gone to shit and they're gonna sell their charters at the end of the year.

Berry found a landing place at the Wood Brothers for 2025, and he's made the most of it. He's been consistently running with the other Penskes even if he doesn't have the finishes to show for it, but he's made it all worthwhile with a win in Vegas.

It was a deserving win too, because he kept finding his way into the top ten all day long, battled with reigning champion and pseudo-teammate Joey Logano for position multiple times, and in the end, he was up front when a caution with twenty to go reset the race for everybody.

Everyone took fresh tyres, with Daniel Suárez leading the bottom line while Josh Berry was on the top. Daniel had his teammate Ross Chastain behind him, so it looked like Trackhouse had this one, but Berry rallied back, passed Suárez on track, and led the last sixteen laps on his way to victory in the Pennzoil 400.

It was Wood Brothers' 101st victory and the first time they've won in consecutive seasons since 1986 and 1987.

Talk about a feel good story.

On a weekend of four races, it looked like F1 was going to be my favorite of the weekend for a long time, and it probably still is, but that's the happiest I've been at the end of a NASCAR race all season.

It feels nice to be legitimately happy at the end of a racing weekend.

PORSCHE PENSKE #7 MY GOATS

[prema2018core]

HIII can you tell me more about your favourite rio ship?? and about that fic you're working on as well perhaps 😙😙

Well hello again my child, I'm glad you decided to ask again and welcome back to

RIO HARYANTO SHIPS SHENANIGANS

And I'm your host for this, prema2018core

Moving along to the first question: My favorite Rio ships that I had gathered are PasRio (Pascal x Rio), ValRio (Valtteri x Rio), StoffRio (Stoffel x Rio), Gutiyanto (Esteban Gutierrez (not the other Esteban) x Rio), and FeliRio (Felipe Nasr x Rio)

With some honorable mentions of JolRio (Jolyon Palmer x Rio), Eriyanto (Marcus Ericsson x Rio), SerRio (Sergey Sirotkin x Rio), RossRio (Alexander Rossi x Rio), PieRio (Pierre x Rio) and TehRio (Esteban Ocon x Rio)

I already explained the first two ships in your first ask so I'm gonna go ahead to slip to StoffRio now (and yes I'll be doing some more MPreg thoughts)

3. StoffRio (Stoffel x Rio)

I got the urge to ship these two when I saw their race winner photos together and boy...

Like... What do you mean this doesn't scream gay? It's literally giving Kimi no Nawa. Like the smile and idkejskdjw I love them your honor. Did you know that Stoffel basically congratulated Rio on his team radio when Rio got his maiden win in Bahrain and the fact that Rio was supposed to be in WEC in 2021 with Peugeot with Stoffel... Rio this is a call for help, please come back to motorsports your husbands need you.

MPreg thoughts: They have three children together, a singleton daughter and a pair of twin boys. Rio started crushing on Stoffel in 2014 and got close to him in 2015, they finally made it official in 2017.

4. Gutiyanto (Esteban Gutierrez x Rio)

The reason for how I got to ship these two are the same as StoffRio (and probably the other ships that I'm going to list here)

HELLO?! WEDDING PHOTOS?! AND THERE'S EVEN A CONTINUATION OF THIS PHOTO IN 2016?!

IT'S GIVING TEEN LOVE TO MARRIAGE KIND OF RELATIONSHIP AND I'M HERE FOR IT. Rio would definitely talk to him in Spanish and always ask Gutierrez if he said the things that he said are correct or not. Gutierrez calling Rio "mi corazon" will be the death for me and I'm fine with it. Their interactions in the junior series were just so cute that it might have given me diabetes.

Mpreg thoughts: Definitely teenage parents situation where they got drunk one night after the last round of GP3 2010 in Monza and they got freaky without protection. But it's a cryptic pregnancy so Rio doesn't even know he's actually pregnant. When the kid was born (it was a girl) they decided to do a shotgun wedding. When Rio got tossed aside by Manor, he went to Gutierrez for comfort and it turned spicy again which made him pregnant again.

5. FeliRio (Felipe Nasr x Rio)

Their interactions since Formula BMW was so natural I can't help myself to not ship this ship. A goofy Brazilian x Too Oblivious Indonesian, what's there more to ask??

Look at them, Felipe and his favorite ball of a sunshine Indonesian. I love em. They basically never leave each other's side during the driver's parade. Poor Rio basically clings to everyone he knows like his life depended on it.

MPreg thoughts: Even though they know each other since Formula BMW, I don't think they would go the teen pregnancy route. Rio is so oblivious to Felipe's pursuit that he just thought he was just doing his usual silly Felipe routine but no, Felipe was trying so hard to flirt with him. Rio got preggo after the 2016 season ended and it resulted in twins.

I'll go back to the ships (the ones in the honorable mention) if you ask for it as usual

For question two, I have two fanfictions cooking up one is an Mpreg fanfic of PasRio/Wehryanto that takes place in an AU where Rio got a seat in Formula E after his Formula 1 journey was a bust. The other one is actually a SeanNyck fanfiction with a touch of StoffRio added to it that takes place in 2015 Formula Renault 3.5 (SeanNyck) and GP2 (StoffRio)

ASK ME MORE SWEETIES!!
