Need Piastri to awaken the 3/16th Italian in him and channel the spirits of the Holy Roman Empire to win a WDC or two before Norris

Incase anyone needed a casual reminder that Norris is an utter asshole.
If you hear that drivers were sick and your first response is to be mad about them admitting it, you are an ass

Whenever I see a post with people that say that the hate on Lando has come out of nowhere and people have no reasons to, I’m like; you know what, maybe you’re right and some people did start to hate on him because that’s popular.
But it’s also very funny to try to reduce the dislike people can have for a driver by saying “you have no real arguments, you just jump on the train”, because you don’t want to hear your favorite driver has done and said things that soured his reputation, when it’s actually “no, babe, I’ve been finding him insufferable for years, but this year he has reached a peak, and I could list you the reasons why he gets on my nerves, but you probably would brush it off anyway”.

notice how when max was protesting the FIA and giving his short snappy answers he clarified that it had nothing to do with the interviewers and managed to be “rude” gracefully

Maybe I’m over thinking things but it feels like a lot of what determines if someone gets labeled a pay driver or not is race
Off the top of my head the drivers that are called pay drivers currently on the grid are Lance stroll, Checo Perez, Zhou Gaunyu, and Yuki Tsunoda. When Lando Norris’ dad has paid a lot to McLaren during Norris early career, Ollie Bearman’s dad currently sponsors him, Liam Lawson’s career was funded by New Zealand companies, etc, but none of these drivers are ever called pay drivers.
The same level of scrutiny surrounding how driver’s of color fund their seats/careers is not applied for most white drivers, especially if theyre anglos
And even when it is true that a driver is a pay driver, like Lance Stroll, I still find it icky that around 80% of things said about Lance Stroll, the only Jewish driver on the grid, is about how wealthy his family is.

YOU WATCH F1 TOO?!?!?!?!???????!?? RAHHHHHHHHH🏎🏎🏎🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 can we plz get thoughts on drivers 👀🥺🙏🫣🫣🫣🫦
anon i know you sent this sometime around suzuka but that last emoji made me laugh every time i tried answering this. as for the drivers......... sigh. I'm swinging a very bedazzled bat at a swarming hornets' nest. pray for me.
under the cut because i yapped a LOT. also. uh. possible slander. so like.
Red Bull Racing
Max Verstappen: starting off strong here with my favourite guy of all time. He's Inevitable™. He's fast. He's amazing. He's sweet and blunt and gorgeous and I want everything good for him. He's phenomenal, he moves me, he makes it's so easy to root for him and yet, it's incredibly taxing to be a fan given the British bias in F1 journalism and the fandom, not to mention FIA occasionally losing it's goddamn mind.
Sergio 'Checo' Perez: I'm actually so fond of him. His recent performances leave more to desired, I know, but fuck if he isn't the funniest mf around. Also it's simply a matter of time when he gets back in form [the bias is STRONG here I'm aware]. Also he's an extremely good second driver because I for one think he knows how to handle a team built around his teammate. I don't think any other driver on the current grid would have gelled with Max and Red Bull's structure [and strategy to win] the way Checo has.
Ferrari
Charles Leclerc: Il Predestinato. Saint Leclerc. Curse bearer and curse breaker. He's made to be a dream. He can make the hopeless hope. I know I said Max is generational talent but we're quite lucky to be in this era where we have not one, but TWO generational talents because Charles..... this guy..... you have to be blind to not see the sheer talent and insanity this man holds. Ferrari get your shit together istg. I need a Verstappen - Leclerc WDC fight. IT WILL BE GLORIOUS.
Carlos Sainz: *cough* ok, so, I wanna start off by saying I do think he's a chill guy off-track, ok? I really do think that. He's funny, quick, hot [ofc]. As a driver though. I just. He's good --not as good as F1 media wanted you to believe after his win in Australia and the circumstances surrounding it [WDC material??? Any GP winner now is considered WDC material??? ok]-- but he whines A LOT and I would actually prefer if his aggressiveness on track is directed less at his own teammate and more on their opposition? That would be cool. Plus sometimes he forgets it's not 'yippee we are all friends haha' all the time and inevitably fires up when someone serves cunt on track and he's bearing the brunt of it. I call it the Mclaren syndrome if anyone is interested.
Mclaren
Tumblr media
enough said [ignore the shit quality i grabbed the first template i could find sjskdjfke]
Mercedes
George Russell: HES SUCH A HILARIOUS DIVA!!!! WHO DOESNT LOVE THIS GUY?? He's so entertaining and fun and he is a very good driver! I feel like we still have yet to see all he can achieve and I am very excited to see what happens next.
Lewis Hamilton: Legend. I truly have nothing else to add. Forget his fanbase, forget his tunnel vision when it comes to winning [and this applies to almost every driver, most of all my favourite ones lol], he's seven time world champion for a reason. Since we're asking for my opinions here though, I'll tell you this: anytime he wins I'm happy enough to see it [though I will forever want to see my favs on P1], any time he doesn't I don't care much, if he has a bad race I will give it less notice- basically, he exists in the periphery of my vision. I have been in awe of him for years and admire him but I cannot call myself a fan. One thing I can't help but obsess over is how cunty and unapologetic he is [which is also something that I love about Max].
Alpine
Esteban Ocon: He's a good driver, he's grinded hard to be here in F1 and I love to see it. Also, he's geek! In my books, that's always a plus.
Pierre Gasly: He's actually one of the most unremarkable drivers on the grid currently. Like there's nothing wrong with him and every time he pops up in interviews or whatever he's fun to see but that's about it? Honestly he seems like a cool guy, a driver okay enough but doesn't stand out much to me in anyway skdjhsjd
Sauber
Valtteri Bottas: THE MOST UNDERRATED DRIVER EVER MAYBE????? I love this dude and I'm hoping he can get something better than the tractor he has this season, as unlikely as it is.
Zhou Guanyu: Again, he's a nice enough driver and I really enjoy his vibe but he's crawling on the track in the tractor Sauber cooked up and I don't really know what to think of him beyond what I have stated.
Aston Martin
Fernando Alonso: Anyone who has a problem with Mr. Alonso has a problem with me. This is a strict Alonso Stan account, I do not take criticism and idc what anyone else has to say about him. He's a legend, he's an icon, he's the spirit of F1. I'm quite literally obsessed with him. You know what. Max is the Only One for me BUT if Fernando happened to win a 3rd title........... Did you know that Adrian Newey was recently acquired by Aston Martin [MAKE IT HAPPEN NEWEY].
Lance Stroll: idc. truly idc. some hate this guy, some love him. im at the camp of idgaf. just complete indifference.
Haas
Kevin Magnussen: If you've noticed anything by now, it's that I love love love track terrors. Not the stupid bitches who divebomb everyone all the time and start barking when it happens to them. Nah, the ones who race. I fucking love them. I love Kevin. Hoping against hope that he gets a seat somewhere next year, I will miss him so much. He's incredible to watch. God. I will actually miss him so much. Fuck.
Nico Hulkenberg: Another underrated driver, he's actually quite skillful and entertaining to watch. I just wish he had better luck like 😭
VCARB
Daniel Ricciardo: I miss him. His performances had waned and yeah, it had been time for him to go but I will still miss him and idk man I will admit I wasn't his biggest fan a while back, which had hurt because at some point, years back, he was the main reason why I watched the sport at all. But he had slowly wormed himself back in my heart and fuck. His last race actually made my chest clench ngl. He was absolutely amazing.
Liam Lawson: Consider me sat. I'm SO curious to see how he performs. We know he's got potential but just how far can he stretch?
Yuki Tsunoda: How many times have I used the word 'love' already? I'm sorry but what else can I say? I genuinely love this fella. He's so good and exciting to watch on track and also, plain funny. I wish for everything good to happen to him.
Williams
Alex Albon: infatuated with his billion dollar smile. Now that that's out of the way let me also just say HES SUNLIGHT INCARNATE, also I COULD LISTEN TO HIM YAP FOREVER. Idk I'm actually really happy for him because he seems to be flourishing at Williams and I mean this in the best way possible: he shines at a midfield team. [Also, note me saying he's sunshine doesn't negate just how fucking sly & sassy he can be. I adore that about him.]
Franco Colapinto: MY BELOVED. I perk up like a sunflower under the sun when I see him. He's such an intriguing driver. I detect hints of track terrorism abilities brewing here and cannot wait to see more of it. Also! He's so refreshing to listen to. I know like 80 percent of the grid is no-nonsense and transparent but man idk how to say this. He's a fucking comedian. Not a thought that has any sort of filter at all in that pretty little head of his. Just. No PR training at all here.
Logan Sargent: This boy. He did not deserve even a smidgen of what he had to tolerate. I actually detest the collective treatment from the fandom and his own fucking team that he had to constantly weather. I hope whatever racing division he advances to, he fucking demolishes. I hope he has so much fun winning. I miss him and his reserved smiles.
Special mention:
Oliver Bearman: I mean he raced twice this season, I can't skip over him just like that. Anyways, he's a BABY [< girl who's half a year older than him sjedhbwje] and I WANT HIM TO DO GOOD. He's done relatively well till now in the limited time on track [in F1] we've seen him, we'll have to wait and watch how he does next year. This F2 season for him has been... eh but like I get why.

lando really needs to work on keeping his cool when under pressure. every race weekend when he's in the lead/leading max in this championship, we just keep seeing mistake after mistake.

my thoughts on lando norris are so intricate and far too complex for the average tumblr liveshitposting experience. yes hes a bit of a loser (neither derogatory nor entirely affectionate) yes he has illusions of grandeur yes hes nowhere near as confident as he pretends and puts on a show of arrogance to convince himself hes got it all under control. but those are all traits i share. half the time i wish mechanical failure upon him but in real life i know we would be besties and get thrashed together and fight for carlos sainzs attention. hes my f1 blorbo of all time and also my mortal enemy. i could never root for him. unfortunately because of self-recognition through the other. that guy needs help. not telling you why though

I don’t want to see anyone else say that P*astr* is a team player or a good teammate. He only cares about himself and mc*aren are just going along with it , absolute clowns.
That team could have prevented this by telling him to play the team game but they didn’t. He opened up the door for Charles, P*astr* alone, ruined their important, vital, 1-2 today. Lost Lando places, which screwed their strategy. He is something else, but I guess him and mc*laren deserve each other. The irony of everything that comes out of management’s mouths ugh just gets me.
Sorry Lando that your team and teammate sucks.

Not Lando trying to come off as an underdog. Bro, you're on a bonafide rocketship, starting on pole in a track with a higher pole-to-win ratio than MONACO iirc. Y'all aren't the underdogs anymore, dude, and haven't been since like Miami... despite results. If you fail to get an easy win then that's 100% skill issue.

I’m not sure if this will reach anyone but does anyone know the context to this clip? It just seems like such an odd thing to say? Like wydm, are people not allowed to have heatstroke?? Clip

At this point I kind of don’t even want McLaren to win the WCC and it’s really conflicting as I want Lando and Oscar to have it, but I don’t want McLaren to have it.
You know what I mean?
