Always thinking about Lauda's comments on Villeneuve in his autobiography To Hell and Back:
"Gilles Villeneuve was someone I took a great liking to. I liked everything about him, although I questioned the risks he used to take. It was always on the cards that Gilles would come out of the pits for the first lap and immediately spin out, simply because he drove flat-out in every situation - and cold tyres didn't make any difference to him. His fighting instincts were admirable and contrived to build an image which persists today, long after his death: the Villeneuve legend keeps on growing. He was the craziest devil I ever came across in Formula 1.
A typical Villeneuve episode: I am in my hotel room in Zolder. It is ten o'clock in the evening or even later; at any rate, it is pitch dark outside. Suddenly, I hear the chatter of a helicopter. I throw open the window and see a chopper hovering outside, using its headlights to find a suitable landing pad. Absolutely crazy! Illegal, impossible, mad. Of course, who should it be but Gilles. Next morning, I ask him what on earth was going on: 'I miscalculated by a couple of hours when I took off in Nice, but it all turned out okay. As you can see, I made it.'"

YINNIRE — MOON OF CRIMSON, BLADE OF EXISTENCE
Tumblr media
I. ⟡ OVERVIEW:
—— “I don’t care whatever name you call me. I just call myself Yinnire. …No. No nicknames. I’d prefer you keep your distance from me — minimum of 5ft; I have no interest in the Nameless or the Astral Express. But if you want to decimate a branch of the Denizens of Abundance, I suppose I can assist you.”
A Self-Annihilator with the Abundance in her blood as both THEY and the sleeping and shapeless claw at the back of her mind. With corroding senses and memories, and with only her blade and her emotions, she traverses the cosmos, slaying all the creations of the Plague Author that happens to cross her field of view. However, it appears she has and formed an unlikely connection with another Emanator who had experienced just as much strife and toment as she had.
Tumblr media
II. ⟡ GENERAL INFO:
⤷ World: The Xianzhou Cangcheng (formerly), The Xianzhou Luofu (formerly) ⤷ Faction: Self-Annihilators (on-profile), The High-Cloud Quintet (temporarily; formerly) ⤷ Path: Nihility ⤷ Combat Type: Ice ⤷ Voice Claim: Brittany Lauda
⤷ Gender: Female ⤷ Pronouns: She/Her ⤷ Species: Long-life species ⤷ Age: 1300+
⤷ Nicknames: My star
⤷ How To Obtain: Blade of Annihilation
Tumblr media
III. ⟡ LORE:
Xue Hua, now known as present day Yinnire, was one of the most beloved disciples of the Champion Swordmaster of the Luofu, Jingliu. She has nigh intense amounts of mara flowing through her veins, corroding her mind as well as her senses after stepping foot into the shadow of IX the Nihility. As such, Yinnire often relies on her inner feelings and emotions— she doesn’t quite trust her mind after the Sedition of Imbibitor Lunae. Gazed upon by the sleeping and shapeless, Yinnire became what is known as a Self-Annihilator.
⏾. PERSONALITY:
⤷ Yinnire first appears to almost always have a calm smile on her face— however, one can learn very quickly that her smile is just a facade; merely a byproduct of the Abundance coursing through her veins. She is not rude per se, but not quite polite either; she is more blunt, direct and straightforward, never beating around the bush as she sees it as a waste of time. As an Emanator of IX, Yinnire has a somewhat nihilistic view of life, thus can hardly find any sort of strong attachment towards anyone — well, anyone, except for one person.
⏾. MORE ABOUT YINNIRE:
Likes | Artemis, stargazing, her ribbon
Dislikes | The Abundance, Blade
Fun Fact | Yinnire doesn’t say anything, but she feels a large void in her chest and an overwhelming sense of loneliness after the events of the Sedition.

Does Bebita ever watch old Grand Prix races? Is she a fan of old drivers, like Raikkonen, Häkkinen, or Schumacher?
Or of Prost and Senna, or Lauda, or Hunt?
She does watch old races!
When Ingrid realised that Bebita was actually serious about getting into racing, she bought all the subscriptions for dirtbike racing and F1 so Bebita goes through every race in the archive.
She's a big fan of Senna and Schumacher and waffles on about them after she's watched a race at the dinner table where Mapi and Ingrid don't know what she's talking about

Hello, I just saw an ask you sent abnerkrill about f1. I'm very new to the sport (I'm on s4 of Drive to Survive and have just begun following the current season), and doing some research into f1 history for a project I'm working on. Do you have any resources on the history of f1? And do you know where I can find the Senna documentary? No pressure to respond, of course, and thanks for sharing your insight in that ask.
Hell yeah I can help! DTS is docudrama which means it will make a storyline outta nothing, so you've probably been given a very warped view of the sport. Which isn't to say it isn't good fun! Its just not helpful to understanding the sport.
I've been into motorsport coming up on 4 years now and I've read/watched a bunch on the history of F1 and motorsport. I'll list some of that stuff here:
MY RECOMMENDATIONS:
One: Life On The Limit (documentary)
Free on youtube. Interviews tons of drivers. Got me into the sport. I mean it when i say it interviews a ton of old drivers/important people from multiple eras and paints a real picture of the danger of the sport. Fair warning: it contains footage of fatal crashes and if you find that upsetting I totally understand and won't blame you for skipping it
Lauda (Documentary)
Eveyone should know about Niki. I say this half-ironically. Hes my fav driver so I'm biased but his impact on the sport cannot be overstated. His story, from his championship to his horror crash and full body burns to his next two championships and his fight for driver safety is incredible. He was half of the pair that organized the famous driver strike! Whole grid locked themselves in a bedroom instead of driving to protest the lack of safety!
Rush (Movie)
Again Niki Lauda related, however this is THE motorsport movie. It's very accurate to the battle between James Hunt and Niki Lauda for the championship, along with their friendship. It's great and even non-motorsport enjoyers loved it.
Biographies/Auto-Biographies (Books)
Tons drivers have tons, some have multiple (like Senna or Schumacher) and you can get the more well known ones from the more well known drivers off Z-Lib or annasarchive pretty easy (use a vpn and go to r/piracy and navigate to their masterpost of piracy links. if you dont have a vpn dw they list a really solid free one) you should also be able to find a host for the senna doco through there. I would recommend reading about figures like Prost, Schumacher, Lauda, Hamilton obvs but also non-drivers in the sport like Ross Brawn and Sid Watkins.
Life on The Limit (Books)
Two books by Sid Watkins (doctor who made f1 safe) that were released in tandem with the doco I mentioned and go into great detail about his friendship with past drivers. Really funny at multiple points and then absolutely heartbreaking when it comes to the things he saw and lost during those days. Highly recommend.
My friend Laura who has been watching since infancy also recommends:
- "In general for freebie resources, overtakefans as a site has a Ton of resources and history archived"
- "and if you search for 'F1 season reviews YouTube' you will usually find the short season round ups they used to do that provide you with some basic history and that can be really good if you want to know more about certain eras but don't know where to start."
Silver War (documentary)
It's abt nico and lewis and their lifelong friendship into bitter toxic rivalry into. whatever the fuck it is now. is on youtube, (I personally haven't seen it.)
Grand Prix: The Killer Years (Book)
About the deadly years of F1, I believe. (I haven't read it.)
Enzo Ferrari: The Man and The Machine (Book)
from Laura: "even though it starts WAY WAY WAY before f1 and is probably too heavy for a newbie to handle it is a VERY detailed look at not just Ferrari but early Motorsport in Europe and how that eventually led to the creation of F1 and why Ferrari has always been a presence in it"
The book also touches briefly on fascism in the sport which I will be talking abt under the readmore because I do feel it's an important disclaimer.
So, I put this under a readmore cos it's a bit long. But the one last thing I wanna say is that I think it is important when looking at F1 both in the current day and it's history to discuss the grim realities about why Motorsport is so elitist, and how that has been ingrained since it's founding.
A big thing to know about F1 history is that is was founded by the wealthy, juuust pre (late 1920s) and then post WW2 (paused during the war). It was the wealthy of this era who could afford to buy and race motorcars. From there, it was only those wealthy who could fund and form those teams. It was a rich mans hobby. And unfortunately, more often than not, those very rich men had fascist ideals (which were very, very popular in England and Italy and Europe in general and up until WW2 which made it a more distasteful ideal, although enough people certainly persisted with these beliefs more quietly).
Nazis raced in it. Nazi sympathizers raced in it. Ferrari had to work for Mussolini and Mercedes had to work under Hitler making weapons during the war, some members of these companies more willingly than others. Hell, one of F1s most famous circuits it raced on is the Nurburgring. A massive stretch of track that was made on the orders of Hitler, next to a small town where the small Jewish population had been purged. It was built to show off German Engineering and with the hopes to show off to the rest of the West (they lost against the English in the inaugural race and threw a fucking fit abt it loser fucking nazis).
These echoes of facism and elitism do still exist in european motorsport to this day and, like fascist ideals, have expanded into other continents. I don't think I could name a Brazilian driver who doesn't support Jair Bolsonaro. The Piquets are personal friends with him, Nelson (4 time world champ, prolific racist) drives him around for political rallies. Emmerson Fittipaldi (another old champion, Brazilian) ran as an MP for the Italian fascist party. Bernie Ecclestone (owned the rights to f1 for a WHILE) believes in fucking insane conspiracy theories about Jewish people and described Putin, who he is friends with, as a "good man" on national television when questioned abt the invasion of Ukraine. Max Mosely, who was head of the FIA until the late 2000s, was a youth fascist who handed out handwritten leaflets on "racial inferiority". His parents wedding was attended by Hitler himself. He was the nephew of Oswald Mosely, who was done for treason during the war for his loyalty to the Nazis and belief in Nazism. Max was still in charge when Lewis, the sports first black driver (one of two ever now, out of 70+ years of history), came into the sport. And that's not even going into the morality of some of F1s sponsors (Armco, etc) and the places they race (too long to list)
This is uncomfortable, yes, but it's not often talked about when recounting F1's history. Certainly not in documentaries or books. The creators of which who, frankly, dont even know how to touch on the subject or think it's fine to skip over. But it is a reality of the sport and it does intertwine in an irremovable way with its history, especially when you look at the people who both competed and still do compete. When you look at its current day classism, its racial inequality, sexism, homophobia, ableism etc.
Just because its easier to hide these days through weak statements, a stance of individualism on drivers political views and co-opting of activist language without actual moves towards change, certainly does not mean it isn't there. And while things have absolutely improved in terms of diversity and will hopefully continue to improve with the presence of people like Lewis Hamilton and Susie Wolff, F1 and European motorsport is and was unfortunately, founded in an era of fascism and elitism and it will be a while until those parts of the sport can be removed from its structure.

I'm feeling in a preview mood, so some cuts of an in-progress personal project I've been hacking away at since early July after burning out from other things.
After multiple conceptual revisions: A semi-biographical in nature/semi-artistic rundown of Niki Lauda, using purely quotes from autobiographies, biographies, documentaries, archived magazines/newspapers, outside sources, and articles both during his life and after it.
Spiritually, this is the successor to A Theoretical Hawks Study in what will be its total length, and what I learnt from it about design layout.
If you're interested in my F1 ramblings, my side account is @aston-angel.

📢 Your Song // Chapter 7 "Lauda" is out
People have been breathing down my neck... so here it is.
And consider it payback for you @hansodax, @lokinightfury 😈
Chapter 7: Lauda
Summary:
Fuck Up The Friendship, take two.
Sneak peek:
Five was barely through the door when Klaus’s exuberant greeting hit him like a gust of wind. 
“Mi hermano! You finally came to our humble abode!” Klaus exclaimed, his eyes dancing with mischief. “How’s that little journey on the path of love treating you, hmm?” 
“It’s... ongoing.” Five replied, his tone clipped, fists stuffed in his pockets, gaze dodging his brother’s. It was enough to make Klaus grin knowingly. 
“Five, you have been enlightened!” Klaus practically pounced on him, pulling him into a bear hug. “Dave! Champagne! Five has come into his age of love!” 
Songs for this chapter:
Brother, Kodaline Wanna Be Yours, Arctic Monkeys Fuck Up The Friendship, Kate Leah Lose My Mind, Dean Lewis
I'm (not) sorry.

hey, cazzy, all good? im contacting you because i decided (in a very not-carefully way) make an article (academic one) about james hunt and his framing as the "perfect macho driver" by f1 fans.
considering you are the person with most classic f1 i know (and enjoy), i wished to know if you have any material about james or if you can recommend me good sources for my research. thank you in advance!
Hey, thank you so much for sending an ask 🥰
That's great you are writing an article about James, and you have to send it to me when it's published because I'd love to read it💕
For recommendations of resources, the best book I've read about James Hunt is 'James Hunt: The Biography' by Gerald Donaldson. It goes into a lot of depth about his life, and his family recommends it as they helped give information to the author about it. There is also the book 'Memories of James Hunt' by Christopher Hilton, a book compiled of people talking about their experiences with James. It's been a while since I read that book, but I remember it being good.
'Grand Prix Season 1976 Hunt vs Lauda' by David Benson is another good book because the author wrote it at the end of the 1976 season, and he was good friends with James, so he had a lot of close knowledge. This book has a split attention between James and Niki.
I would not recommend any books by the author Tom Rubython, as while he has a two books out on James that do have a lot of detail of his life, the author is misogynistic and so that affects what information he includes and excludes about James - and the man also didn't like Niki and that comes across in the book.
Most of the other books I mentioned though you can get pretty cheaply online depending where you live, but there might be some pdf versions around as well or be able to rent them off Internet archive.
Here is a link to an article about James Hunt, his anti-Apartheid ideas, and what he did about the South African gp to support groups fighting for independence and equality.
Here's a link to an article about James's life after Formula One where he had to deal with his addictions and depression and how he over came them.
There are some documentaries about James Hunt on YouTube that have information, including one called 'When Playboys Ruled the World', but that one is a bit more biased in portraying James as a womaniser and leaving out other parts. It also interviews Max Mosley about his scandal which was...not great to watch. But if you want to check that out and other documentaries about James Hunt, on my pinned post I have a link to my YouTube playlist of classic f1 documentaries.
I would try checking out interviews with James's sons as well for information. Tom and Freddie Hunt, as they have been trying a lot to get more accurate information about James out there and speak about who he truly was.
On my pinned post under the Niki Lauda section, I have a master list of quotes I've collected from books about him. Some of them also include information about James Hunt in there.
I hope this was of help and have given you some resources and if you need anything else or want to know anything specific let me know! 🥰
