#blame the team not the driver

[scuderia-hamilton]

oh hey hi @ some lh fans on my dash wishing actual harm and death on a driver because of something the team did is actually crazy behavior and you should get yourself checked 🫶🏻

[leclerc-s]

@ ferrari @ red bull

[fcb-mv33]

Lmao called it from last season the dude was leak😭Merc have been getting info since before the new regs in 2014 and it’s no surprise they were able to get their new TD passed last season and show up to that race with that new floor💀

Same team that leaked confidential information about the cost cap breach last season before Red Bull even got a look😭

look as a mick fan i fully understand being delusional about blond flops (i've been there!) but i honestly feel so confused whenever i see people talking about james vowles like he's guenther steiner 2.0 for what's going on with logan...

don't get me wrong i feel bad for logan and wish the best for him! the whole giving up the car thing wasn't great and it must feel shitty to hear your boss talking so highly about someone that'll be replacing you...but otherwise what the actual fuck are people talking about??? help a girl out please! i genuinely want to understand!

and let me acknowledge here that there were definitely people talking about mick like this in 2022 but tbh i blocked a lot of them because they were being A LOT even for me...

I think it’s a mix of two things cause especially last season and especially Logan fans as far as I saw used to idolize James? Especially after that one race where James told Logan he can retire the car and everything he said about how Logan was put into F1 prematurely and it was on the team to develop him as a driver cause he’s a rookie and just in general seeming approachable and talking so nice about his drivers and focusing on how the team needed to fix the car for them and people acted like he was perfect and had never done anything wrong ever and so one

… and then the chassis thing happened which is both reason 2 he’s so hated by Logan fans cause a lot of people became Logan fans cause of thet and what reversed reason 1 cause Idk this fandom has always been very black and white and he’s clearly the devil now cause Logan should have raced and also he broke Logan with this

Basically if we’re honest when it comes to racing Logan hasn’t improved as much as he should have and now the writing is on the wall and people are looking for someone to blame

(Like I’m not blaming anyone and we all need someone to blame and he’s great there)

actually wait i'm still angry with how dts ran with the storylines it ran. someone in redbull/alphatauri management decided that yuki wasn't ready despite approaching his third year on the time and instead they put pressure on an f1 rookie and then gave both of them a dogshit car

then proceeded to mentally torture nyck to the point where he was getting desperate, making him crash out during races

both yuki and nyck deserved so much better, alphatauri was literally stated to be the testing ground for future redbull drivers and they had no faith in the one that has been with them? yuki is going to make like alex and leave the team for another backmarker team and revive the hell out of them because this is so bullshit

and once alphatauri got the feedback they needed from nyck, they dropped him and pulled daniel in to do the same to checo

and no, it was not daniel that ultimately got alphatauri's eighth place. yuki alone had 17 points, one more than alfaromeo combined. yes, daniel's 7th place in mexico gave hope, but even if nyck stayed at the bottom of the driver's championship with 0 points, yuki would've beaten alfaromeo single-handedly

[marieshyperf1xations]

Apparently there's serious rumours about Checo losing his seat to Danny Ric mid season. I'm just curious if in that world they're sacking him outright and putting Liam in or if it's a swap. Also disappointed but not surprised that Yuki doesn't even seem to be part of the conversation

[livetogether--diealone]

everyone hyped up about the italian sport newspaper frontpages praising lewis while i'm sitting here eating my own hand scared because I know that lewis or charles is going to be buried by the same ones at the first change of wind

[wickedlittlecritta]

yeah if red bull could get their act together that would be great, i'm tired of not seeing my special little guy on the podium every week

[grand-prixcess]

lando norris fans are to me what team LH fans stuck in 2021 are to max verstappen fans.

[blorbooooooooooooo]

ignoring all the bullshit from mclaren i do love the irony of oscar piastri winning the race with the alpines either dnf or last

Confession: sometimes I scroll back through George’a old twitter posts (he doesn’t have a lot it isn’t hard) to check he actually made the tweets I remember when I feel particularly insane about people on tumblr misinterpreting him

From the mind that brought you:

Comes another anime/motorsport crossover:

Did Fred even defended him? I only saw him saying the start of the drivers wasn't good

okay so i had made a note to go back and check this & fortunately this reminded me haha

from the f1tv post-race show:

"Sandwiched is the right word. I told the Australian TV that it was more a panini for us but— (laughter) But yeah, uh, what you can do when you are three side by side like this? I think Charlie has no where to go and I understand that Checo had to turn also, uh, Max was close to the curb but, I think there is nobody to blame on this."

i remember watching it live being extremely endeared by fred calling him charlie. i mean, it's not ultra defensive, but it's a pretty neutral / not-slandering-the-home-favorite answer that makes it clear it's not charles' fault.

i did go back to check christian's answer as a comparison because i was curious:

"Yeah I mean look, it was a great shame to lose Checo. He got a great start and good run down to turn one and... You know, Charles, I think you got to call it a racing accident. Three into 1 never goes and Checo was squeezing, Charles had no where to go, and contact was unfortunately made and that was it."

interestingly, very similar. arguably because that is the only logical answer/explanation of what happened. but i mean... christian does say "three into turn one never goes"... and checo was the one who made it three across. and checo is his driver, so there is no reason for him to be as neutral about charles as fred is, for instance.

Anyways, we're not talking enough about how Ferrari are coming across as having thrown the towel after losing the WDC, but even more so after losing the WCC.

someone is playing with fire and everyone is noticing 😬 (sorry to checo but this is key to the delusion agenda)

not a step by step public undressing, outlining exactly how it was all checo's fault and definitely not red bull's on any level whatsoever 💀 i'm sorry but if that were me, i would literally fake illness and disappear for the rest of...i was gonna say for the rest of the season but no. literally the rest of time, you'd never hear from me again
