To my followers, I've changed my icon for the weekend because 1) it's 4th of July weekend and 2) I'm manifesting Logan points/podium. I need my favorite American to win because 1) he's in England during the 4th of July weekend and 2) his team put him in a car with a fucking UNION JACK on it. So i need him to be a little bit of a terror...the icon will go back to normal come monday but for this weekend...I gotta support my boy

Another race. Miami had been another race this season that has been shit for Logan. Why was something always fucking it up for him?
First they gave him shitty cars, then whenever they did give Logan a somewhat good car, he wasn’t driving it the way he should, then they gave away his car to Alex after he crashed his. Now he had to retire the car because KMag decided to crash into him?
It’s almost lil the universe is against Logan and his time in Formula 1, which might I add is utter bullshit.
Logan hasn’t been the best driver and I knew that, but I didn’t fall in love with him because he’s a formula 1 driver, no, I fell in love with him because he’s always been there for me even when he was going through his own problems and has never once complained about it (him being a famous driver was just a perk).
Logan and I have been together for just over 2 years which means I’ve seen the best and worst of his career, but right now after he got hit at his home race was heart wrenching.
I stood by the tv screens that showed his camera footage live from his car and my hands shot up to my face when I saw the impact of the crash. The crash wasn’t what made my heart shatter for him though, no, instead it was the live radio feed from him to pit that I was currently listening to.
His groans of pain and the tremble in his voice asking if he did anything wrong was what hurt. He was so worried and scared that he fucked up something whilst driving that he didn’t pay attention to whether or not he was hurt.
They replayed that crash maybe a dozen times and each time felt like it stung worse than the previous one before it. I watched as they got the track clear from any debris and brought Logan and the car back to the Williams garage. The look of red eyes and tear stained cheeks was the sight I was greeted with.
I would’ve done anything to take his pain away in that moment. Hell, I would do anything to make sure he never felt pain again. But unfortunately, I can’t. So I had to suffice for the next best thing, comforting him.
I walked over to him and the second he turned and saw me walking over with a somber look on my face he rushed into my arms, pulling me into a tight embrace before absolutely sobbing.
The team around us walked off allowing us a moment of peace while I comforted my boyfriend. His face was in the crook of my neck as he shook with violent sobs and I rubbed my hands up and down his back trying to soothe the ache in his heart.
“Logan you did amazing, it wasn’t your fault. I’m so proud of you. You’ve come so far, I love you so much” I whispered in his ear as I kissed the side of his head.
We stayed like this for a moment, as Logan continued to sob I continued to try to soothe him and murmur sweet nothings in his ear with more small kisses on his head.
After a moment or two, I felt Logan pull away before he looked me in my eyes. I could tell he wanted to say something.
“What happened, Baby?” I whisper as I bring my hands up to his face to wipe his tears away
“I don’t deserve you.” He whispers, his voice breaking again as he moves my hands from his face
“Lo, don’t” I say, tears of my own springing in my eyes
“No Y/N/N, please. I don’t deserve you. I’m not good enough, you deserve to be with someone who wins and makes podiums. Not me, someone who finishes last or doesn’t finish at all.” by the time Logan was done berating himself, I was the one sobbing.
“Logan Hunter Sargeant. Stop talking like that. You’re the best thing to ever happen to me. There was before you, during you, and I never want there to be an after you. I have never loved anyone more than I love you. My heart is so filled with happiness and you’re the reason. You’re the reason I’m still alive today, I have the best life right now and it’s because of you. So please don’t break my heart because you feel like I don’t deserve you, because I never want to live without you. So unless you’re unhappy in our relationship, we are not breaking up. Are you unhappy with us?” Tears were falling like waterfalls from both of our eyes.
“No, I love you too much. I just don’t want you to be with a loser like me” My hands shot up to his face and I made him look at me
“Stop it, I’m not leaving you. I’m staying with you whether you win 100 grand prixs, 1 or none. I’m here until the Lord takes me from this earth. I promise” I said as I placed a sweet and sincere kiss on his lips before we rested our foreheads together
“I’m here always and forever”

Everyone keeps discusing the Lando vs Max thing, Georgie boy being the winner, Carlos getting a podium, Charles and his perpetual bad luck (along with Checo), the Alpines going at it again with Alonso eating popcorn behind them (that 'wow' on Alonso's radio was amazing), Pierre's 'Ciao!' as he passed Esteban (I roughly translated it as 'fuck you'), Checo driving with a hole the entire race and everyone hating him because of it... but these guys need more love:
Tumblr media
They ROCKED! I mean, both getting points and trying so hard. I'm even happy for KMag, even though I'm still salty for the crash with Checo.
Nico has been amazing this 2024, this is why I wish Checo would have joined the Audi project and being his teammate. They deserve cookies, love and recognition.
Not to mention Oscar Piastri, he deserved the Driver of the Day thing, honestly. What he did on that track was absolute madness.

it’s just, he truly gave everything to Williams. it was his team and he was loyal to a fault and what was the thanks he got? his TP talking to the press every week about who he wants to fill his seat, his car being taken from him when his teammate crashes, his TP saying he’s underperforming but giving him a shitty heavy car with no upgrades for a long period of the season and when he finally got the upgrades and the car didn’t weigh the same as an elephant he was acc consistent except for when people like KMag took him out in the race, then he crashes in the wet in FP and his TP axes him mid-season with the argument that they can’t afford anymore crashes but replaces him with an F2 rookie that hasn’t even finished their first year in F2? and they announced the 2025 seat BEFORE announcing he wasn’t re-signing, and announced his mid-season replacement BEFORE announcing he was being dropped. it was all so bad that when he crashed his gut reaction was to apologise instead of letting his team know he was ok. the way that he’s been treated, and the slander of his talent, is acc disgusting and how’s he reacted? with unbelievable amounts of respect and kindness without a bad word said about anyone. he’s just always seemed so quiet and polite and kind and I just wanna wrap him up in a blanket and carry him round in my pocket. and like it’s so hard bc I wanted him to stay in F1 to prove them all wrong and to live up to what I know he was destined to achieve but at the same time I’m so relieved for him. he’s finally out of that shitty situation, with a shitty TP that consistently undermined him, and he can go on to just getting that love for racing back.

Change The Prophecy (Let it once be me)
[basically a written manifestation for q3 logan and alex, finished 5 minutes before quali]
“It’s like the City of Angels is the closest you’ll get to Heaven, Las Vegas is where you’ll most likely meet the Seven Deadly Sins, Louisiana where you’ll find the ancient witchcraft and the Appalachian where gods go to die,” Dalton says as if this is something Logan should have known. He’s still staring at Logan, the annoyance only an older sibling can have shining through near-crystal blue eyes.
Logan tilts his head, “So you’re saying Florida has that? Like, causal magic?”
Dalton groans, running his hands over his face, “No, dumbass, it’s real, true magic and you fit the criteria to use it.”
Logan is still confused, “There’s criteria?”
“Yes! Pure of heart, intentions and will. You let them put Alex in your car in Australia and weren’t even that upset about it.”
Logan frowns, “Yes I was?”
Dalton rolls his eyes, this was so not the point, “And when Kmag crashed into you in Miami, you guys talked it out! Others would’ve brought down hell with them.”
Okay, so he’s still lost, but to avoid the risk of his brother pushing him off the boat, he nods. He’s not sure what the fuck Dalton is on and he really doesn’t want to know either.
The waters are shallow when Dalton pushes Logan in, following after him. The water is strangely warm despite it being one in the morning. Logan trusts that his brother isn’t planning to leave him here like that one time when he was five.
They end up at a half-circle rock formation. There’s a pool of water in it, almost like the one from H2O except it has an opening to the rest of the sea.
Dalton looks at him, motioning for Logan to jump in. Logan, being the younger brother and constantly fighting the urge to both get away from his brother and wanting to stick close to him, jumps in.
The water is icy, almost as cold as the ice baths in Singapore. It washes over him, submerging himself completely into the water. He remembers to calm himself when his chest tightens, his limbs loosening.
He opens his eyes, trying not to be surprised at the fact that his eyes don’t burn despite the saltwater. He tilts his head up, looking at the moon through the ripples of the water.
He decides to throw caution into the wind, closing his eyes.
Help me become the greatest, he thinks, his chest tightening again and the pressure in his head expanding, help me prove them wrong.
Above him the waxing crescent moon shines a bit brighter.
***
Dalton calls him dumb for staying under there for so long. Logan didn’t even know how long he had been under, it felt like seconds more than anything.
Logan doesn’t have time to argue and before he knows it, his back at the factory. It had been roughly a week since then and they were currently preparing for Canada.
He knew something was up when James sought him out, his usual calm composure roughed up as he spots Logan. He visibly brightens up and Logan gets a nervous feeling in his stomach.
“Logan! Good news, the new parts just came in.” He says, “The mechanics have been working all night to put them together.”
Logan blinks. The parts were estimated to come through towards the mid-season, something that Logan has been silently hating on since he found out.
“That’s-that’s great!” He says, his voice cracking. James continues to talk, something about the weight and new specs and half-sincere apologies for making him drive in the car he has.
Logan smiles stiffly, patting James on the back when his team principal pulls him into a bone-crushing hug.
He finds Alex a few minutes later, the elder lying on one of the couches with papers in his hands. Logan thumps his legs as he passes by, startling him slightly.
“Hey! I heard about the car,” Alex says sitting up and tossing the papers onto the table, “How are you feeling?”
Logan shrugs. He doesn’t really know. He’s been fighting with the car since the start of the season. He sees the way the other drivers become one with their cars, being able to steer it the way it should be while he’s praying he doesn’t crash into the barriers at every turn.
“Just hoping everything works out.” He says, “Is Jenson in?”
Alex shrugs, “I think so, he’s coming with us to Canada.”
Logan nods, “I’m gonna go see if I can find him.”
Alex waves him off and Logan continues down the building until he reaches Jenson’s office. The driver is there, slouched over his desk, glasses sitting in the bridge of his nose, the glare of his computer nearly blinding.
“You’re gonna go blind.” Logan says, switching the lights on. Jenson smiles, taking off his glasses and switching off his computer.
“Hey kid.” Jenson says as Logan collapses onto his couch. It’s stupidly comfortable and Logan has taken naps on there.
“Heard about the car,” There’s some shuffling before a chair being pushed back before Jenson’s voice sounds closer, “How’s that going?”
“I dunno know.” Logan mumbles, “Haven’t tried it yet.”
Jenson stares at him, and then a little bit more because he can hear the anxiety in his voice, the fear that maybe he is problem and not the car. Jenson hasn’t known Logan that long, but the need to reassure him that he’ll be great is so sharp it startles him. Fernando, Nico and Mark have always said he gets to invested, to caught up with something to see the bigger picture, but what if for Jenson, Logan is the bigger picture.
“You’ll do great.” Jenson says, voice steady but heavy with enough conviction and confidence that Logan feels it settle his frayed nerves.
——
The reassurances seemed to have worked, along with the basically new car. Canada was wet and cold, but Logan feels himself get comfortable as he goes through the motions to prepare for qualifying.
He looks up, at the barest strip of blue sky and closes his eyes.
Please, please, please, he begs before he’s ushered to his car. Practice had been great, placing the highest for himself so far.
He watches the lights, watching them flicker from red to green before they take off.
It feels like he’s watching from the outside, seeing the car glide easily around the corners. He doesn’t look anywhere but ahead, keeping his eyes out for the next car.
He listens to Gaetan, boxes when he needs to, overtakes when it’s safe and does his best to stay within track limits. He defends Alex, stays behind him until they agree to let him through.
They both make it to Q2.
It’s the same from there: overtake, defend, play offense. It’s nerve wrecking when he sees two cars swing into the barriers and the safety car comes out. Once they’re cleared, Alex and him continue, fighting and defending into Gaetan is telling him their in Q3.
Logan doesn’t focus on who’s out, keeping his head steady as they’re off again. He’s nervous, but he’s made it to Q3, and from here, his position is settled.
The two fight for positions, Logan isn’t sure which ones but before he knows it, they’re done.
P8.
[To Be Continued.]

I don't get it why they're hating on checo:( he's a good driver, I've been watching the race for last week and it's so fucked up the fact that he's already out in Q1 and his fucking engineer Hugh bird I'm coming after you! They put checo on rain tyres ON A FUCKING dry track, YES DRY TRACK because the rain didn't come so soon, they did the same to Charles I think, also checo getting a penalty for that as well, also in Monaco when he crashed KMAG didn't get a penalty, it's "No more further investigation" all the racist comments about him too, like all his fans are Mexican bitch I live in an Asian country and I support checo since his Racing point season and he's a damn good driver. He's so under pressure now because of all the hate comments about him, his teams strategies for him, his damn engineer, idk man I just want all this to stop, he doesn't deserve all of this:( I saw this post on my local f1 group page, they be hating on checo a lot too, making it as a meme as well!

ok ok i know a lot of posting i just have a lot to say and i feel bad making my friends hear about it on my private story😭 anyways!!
first of all, did a deep dive about the 1982 drivers strike led by niki lauda. my thoughts? DRIVER SLEEPOVER!! that’s so so funny to me, and my main question is could they even all understand each other? like did they all have a language in common or were they just like. using each other as translators if they couldn’t understand another driver? idk, it’s all just so interesting to me.
second of all, kevin magnussen. i don’t know how to even convey my feelings and opinions on kmag. i love him. he’s one of my favourite drivers, because he’s always seemed so chill and down to earth. i was going back through his old instagram posts from when he left f1, and the way haas still liked every post of his? his post wishing romain well after his crash. the way romain consistently liked his post. the one comment from esteban saying they’ll see him again soon when he left. just. ugh. i have a lot of feelings about kmag. the way he talked about wanting to be an f1 driver when he was a kid and his teachers laughing at him and how he had no idea how he was gonna make it but he was sure he would. AND HE DID!!! i think about him a lot guys.
nico hulkenberg too. i think about both of the haas drivers like an unreasonable amount. they are the haas dads, how could anyone not love them? also, nico and kevin are actually both so unbelievably fine, don’t even try and argue!!

I just looked at the F1 post about Logan’s crash and I’m so fucking pissed. People are literally blaming Logan for KMag crashing into him. I know that most of these people are xenophobic Europeans who hate Logan, but you can literally see the it was Kmag’s fault! How can you just say that Logan should have been more aware?! That’s utter fucking bs. Logan may not be the best driver on the grid, but he got where he is because he’s good at what he does.
He was having such a good weekend and KMag ruined that shit. All the Europeans can think of saying is that it’s loans fault when he isn’t at fault
People are literally think Kevin for crashing Logan out of the race. Someone literally said they were happy it happened because he’s American. I don’t wish bad things on people, but I wish every single xenophobic cretinous idiot in that comment section gets the karma they deserve for the things they’re saying about Logan.
to be quite honest, I’m seeing why some women are choosing to hate men. I am not a mess and I will never be, but these European men in the comments who think they know formula better than the sport itself make me wanna hate men I’m not gonna lie. But I’m not going to, I’m not even gonna be xenophobic and say I should start hating Europeans the way that they hate on Americans for no reason. God will give them what they deserve.
Sorry for bringing religion into this aren’t religious or comfortable with
I put a cw in the tags if you have it blocked

formula 1 drivers as karaoke songs
yuki tsunoda: don’t go breaking my heart except he’s doing both parts because pierre didn’t want to stand up
alex albon: a thousand miles
george russell: i’m gonna be (500 miles) because idk if you guys know this but george russell is british (gasp!)
fernando alonso: fernando by abba but specifically this one edm version of it i’ve been obsessed with for the last 2 years. if the karaoke place doesn’t have it he will provide his own backing
lewis hamilton: total eclipse of the heart. he’s also actively turning around every time he sings “turn around” but it works because he is sir lewis hamilton 
esteban ocon: my heart will go on by celine dion. he sings it staring at pierre 
pierre gasly: bad blood by taylor swift. he is slut dropping and glaring at esteban who is staring smugly back 
max verstappen: good time by owl city and carly rae jepsen because he wants to get it over with so he chooses a song that’s not TOO awful but is bland enough that by the time it’s over people forgot he sang at all 
charles leclerc: i want it that way. he loves it. i bet he listens to this song constantly. during race weekends you’ll hear a quiet “NOW NUMBER FIVE” coming from his drivers room. he chooses the song during karaoke so he can scream it
lance stroll: don’t stop believing. this man thinks he is finn hudson and also i think he’s fully powered by the belief of one man (lawrence)
carlos sainz: hair by little mix. he’s got a choreographed dance too but dw it’s SUPER no homo he just thinks his hair is amazing and interprets the song as supporting that
lando norris: angels by robbie williams. everyone begs him not to but by the time he’s feeling weak and his pain walks down a one way street everybody is feeling it and groovy and loving angels instead ❤️  
nico hülkenberg: sweet caroline. this man has no personality other than being tall and german and he wants to make sure you know that
zhou guanyu: turn the beat around. he can hit those notes and he looks good doing it prove me wrong.
sergio perez: before he cheats by carrie underwood because he very emphatically wants people to know he did NOT cheat on his wife because clearly she didn’t do any of these things so it didn’t happen! also a banger
kevin magnussen: hit me with your best shot (kmag edition) aka he takes it so personally anyway it’s the best performance of the night 
logan sargeant: jolene. idk anything about this man but i believe in my heart he would belt out dolly 
valtteri bottas: love shack by the b-52s. he also listens to this song unironically on his own
honorary grid members (third drivers and recent pensioners):
daniel ricciardo: wannabe by the spice girls. it’s the only song he has memorized and he knows all the parts. he’s going for that second red bull seat he’s got incentive and he’s gotta get with christian’s friends (wife)
mick schumacher: fuck you by lily allen because he’s got so much rage but he’s still so polite! 
sebastian vettel: hey jude and it’s not even the single version it’s the full 7 minute 11 second one but no one minds because 1) it’s seb 2) it means they don’t have to listen to latifi sing 
nicholas latifi: absolutely anything by britney but it’s always a car crash (ha) so it’s queued at the end and there’s just not enough time to get to it so the world lives to see another day
romain grosjean: i will survive

MONZA GP THOUGHTS
Before anything else, i wanna note that i predicted a charles, lando, carlos podium - in that order - on f1 play☝🏻 (i hope louis and i manifested that win lol)
Ok so my race summary:
Mclaren missed their opportunity of a 1-2, idk if they had given specific orders to oscar and lando but it would've improved their chances if they had forbidden them to race each other before a certain point (oscar overtaking lando was banger tho)
I didn't really see what happened to yuki but I was so sad for him that he dnfed :(
I still don't know much ab penalties but i feel like giving 10s to ricciardo bc a mechanic touched his car when he had technically served the 5s already was a bit harsh
I am honestly shocked that kmag got a race ban bc of his collision w pierre like it didn't lead to a severe crash so i fr don't get why they did that, it seems extremely unfair
Max's 6s pit stop was insane😭 what happened to rbr recently (+ when he criticised the lack of messages from the team i lost it)
I NEEDED BOTTAS TO SCORE POINTS😔😔 he was doing so good at one point and was even P9
"Papaya rules"😝 (got me laughing lol)
"Mamma mia mamma mia" + fred congratulating him for both monaco and monza, i was so emotional🤧
Anyways, I am so fucking happy for charles🫶🏻 he deserves this sm and I'm over the moon that he won his home race + his team's race in the same year❤️ he did so well and was able to create an opportunity for himself as soon as the 1st lap so kudos to him, victory always looks magnificent on charles<3
Forza ferrari mfs‼️

I've seen in one of your post saying that Checo and Nico Hulkenburg kinda fall off?? I've known that they race in Gp2 at the same time and look quite closed. But they don't look close (from what I see) anymore. Genuinely asking, what happened between those two??
Side note: Love your blogs btw. It's so informative and positive 💕💕.
Oh yes, if we are talking history, I think Checo and Nico are similar to Brocedes. Nico and Checo were competing together in GP2, sharing a few podiums and being cute together:
Tumblr media
Look at them! They were just babies. Loving how Nico always had his arm around Checo.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
They became sort of friends, Checo has always said he admires Nico and he is his biggest competition. He has told his Dad, his brother, and in interviews. With his Dad, he said that if Nico ever made it to a big team, that would be the hardest fight. And to his brother, who asked him who was the strongest driver he had competed, Checo said 'Hulkenberg without a doubt'.
Nico entered F1 a year before Checo, so they kind of drifted apart... until they become teammates in Force India. But as close as they were, also they were extremely competitive. Otmar (head of the team) said that they were always trying to outdo each other, Hulkenberg managed the first year they were teammates, and Checo did it the second year, right when Nico decided to leave the team.
Those two years we witnessed them being competitive even in the team dynamics. There was an origami challenge and Checo was super pissed because Nico actually knew how to do that, it was wild. I think that created a little strain between them, but it wasn't as noticeable because we were in the middle of the divorcing of Brocedes, and that took the cake.
By the final year of Nico in the team, they were a little off, and not as close as before, standing in different places in the drivers' parade. Never stopped talking or made passive-agressive digs at each other like Brocedes (or crashed into each other), but the distance was there.
They seemed to reconnect when Nico moved to another team... but then 2020 came.
Apparently Max and Marko wanted Hulkenberg for the seat in RBR, and Horner wanted Checo. In the end, Checo got it, and Hulkenberg was out of a seat; these are just rumours, but apparently that didn't sit well with Nico and strained their relationship again. I read interviews with Nico saying that he was in talks with RBR, but Checo won in Sakhir and that sealed the deal.
Also, and that's beside the point but it adds to people perceiving some sort of feud between Checo and Nico, Nico was a little agressive with Checo, kicking him (playfully, never in a bad way), pouring things on him (those were more questionable) and making unfortunate comments about Checo. Nico is just like that, like when he approached KMag and said a sarcastic comment, and my shipper side saw this as pulling imaginary pigtails, but that's just my delusions.
Now Nico and Checo seem to be keeping a respectful distance, but not as close as they were before; they chat and act friendly, but not as teasing and sarcastic as they once interacted (they both were little shits and kept making weird jokes).
That's why I want Checo to go to Audi, so they reconnect once more and revive Hulkenrez!

Look at them! Power couple!!! 💖💖💖
Sorry for the long rant @lunarprophetuwu , as you can see, Hulkenrez is one of my weak spots. I hope I could actually clarify things and not make it more confusing.
And thank you for your lovely comments!! Happy of meeting amazing people like you who enjoy fandom without being mean! Hugs for you! 🤗🤗
I leave you with the power couple, even in different teams:

Checo likes' them tall your honor.

Macau GP 70th Anniversary
YOU. YEAH YOU READING THIS. This is me trying to pursued you to go watch the Macau GP this weekend. This track is historic and legendary. And one of the most fun and dangerous street circuits (imo) with tight corners and varying elevations. It is still the oldest (active) street circuit that still holds F3 (+other races) and isn't part of the F1 World Championship (the other being New Zealand🤝)
Since it’s the 70th anniversary and they are holding two wholeass race weekends with a BANGER entry list this year (full list at the end of the post), so why not take a trip down memory lane and talk about some iconic races and drivers throughout the years. [LONG POST, just saying][Also, surprises underneath]
Macau Grand Prix, Guia Circuit (or Circuito da Guia)—a circuit that spans 6.120km, with different elevations over 30 meters top to bottom (in non-metric terms: 2 small pine trees, or 2 volleyball courts for all non-metric people out there👍). Top speed: 260km/h for an F3 car, which is already a handful. This circuit has had little to no changes since the beginning of its grand opening. While this track serves as a stepping stone for drivers, it remains an independent circuit and race of its own. Though still having an affiliate with the FIA.
Although the first race event began in 1954, they didn’t introduce F3 until 1983. Which they had a strong start for F3 with the likes of Ayrton Senna and Gerhard Berger, respectively taking first and third place.

A few years later; Eddie Irvine, Damon Hill, Jean Alesi also left their marks on this race track.
But the most iconic moment came in 1990. The battle of Schumacher vs Hakkinen. The beginning of their motor rivalry.
youtube
Schumi took first place while Mika unfortunately crashed out at the back of Schumi’s car.
Jenson Button (a literal child) in 1999, second place. God works hard but those mechanics work even harder
youtube
In 2003-2004, both Lewis and Nico took part, whilst Lewis took pole and they both showed great results in qualifying. Neither of them went on to podium in both years.
2005: baby Seb starting to shine through and took third at the main race, just behind Kubica
youtube
They put a baby in a fast car
2009: Daniel, Valtteri, and Jules took the challenge. Jules started near the back end of the grid but was steady racing and finished 10th. Valtteri started 4th, had the opportunity to be on podium until he got a puncture on the last lap that saw him finish fifth. Daniel-not the best start- clipped the wall and punctured his left rear, carried on a little bit more until he crashed out of the race :( can’t find any video cuz apparently no one cared enough about 2009
2011: Valtteri’s third year in a row; the previous got him third place but this one he retired the car on lap 4 due to an accident. Kmag, da Costa, Carlos participated but all in all, half the grid retired in the end.
youtube
Pre-mustache Bottas and baby redbull Carlos
Bloop! 2014: a wild baby Max appears! Boy had good results in qualifying, placing him third, but in the quali race he lost control and crashed. Main race-7th. Nick Cassidy, Nicki Latifi, Antonio Giovinazzi, Alex Palou finished 3rd, 5th, 12th and 16th. Unfortunately, Antonio Fuoco and Estie Bestie retired :(
youtube
Yes, Max did get the fastest lap
2015: Everybody’s favourite! Charles Leclerc has entered the ring. Charlie’s aggressive attack led him to second place and on that podium. Giovinazzi-4th, Lance Stroll-8th, Nick Cassidy-12th and following close behind, my boy, Alexander Albon-13th
youtube
The race was that good even FIA had to post it on their channel lol
youtube
The infamous onboard camera
2016: we see the introduction of George Russell, Landon Norris, Callum Ilott, Guanyu Zhou and Ticktum (But we’re not gonna talk about him🤭). It was an okay race, António Félix da Costa took first (came 9th in the recent WEC👏) and Nikita crashed.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
That year gave us baby Lando and baby George who took his first pole *surprise🎉*
2017: A fucking great racing year, Lando came second due to Habsburg and Sette Câmara crashing out in the final corner. It’s Mick’s first year, though not the best result but did manage to snatch the fastest lap 💨
youtube
2018: it was a scary ass race and I remember standing in front of the TV just watching this. Lisboa corner is famously know for a lot of accidents, Sophia Flörsch made contact with another that send her airborne and crashed into the barriers and fractured her vertebrae. Final standing: Mick-5th, Ilott-7th, Schwartzman-9th, Zhou-11th, Vesti-15th
I’m not gonna post the video, you can go look it up if you’re interested
2019: a lot more familiar faces: Richard Verschoor, Jüri Vips (yeah that one), Logan Sargeant, Callum Ilott came back for another year, Liam Lawson with his bestie Yuki Tsunoda, Enzo Fittipaldi, Max Fewtrell🫡, David Schumacher, Felipe Drugovich, Schwartzman’s second attempt and Sophia Flörsch
youtube
3 years of absence and we are back! 2023!
This year there’s two whole weekends, from 11-12th November and 16-19th November. And they’ve a banger list of drivers like Bianca Bustamante for F4 and Richard Verschoor taking another stab at it.
Macau F4 race is happening on the 11-12th:

F4 is happening the week after on 16-19th
Tumblr media
The FIA is streaming F3 on the YouTube channel (streaming f3 not f4🥲…go watch motor gp too it’s on the same day) but you could probably watch it on other streaming platforms too (you know the ones👀👀)
If you haven’t seen the Macau GP before…give it a go! It’s brilliant!
*side note: if Fernando or Lewis ever retires from f1 and have nothing else to do…I’d like to see them tackle this track (again for Lewis) maybe not f3, maybe something like GT cup or something. It would be verrrry interesting👀

I mean, whos gonna take him?!
Everyone kinda has a no1 driver, and lets face it, Eseban doesn’t know how to play teammates game.
Imagine if he did that to Max in RB? Or PR63?
Williams is kinda open, but I think James would rather work with Bottas then Ocon. Audi will probably go for someone ether young or popular. And he’s noy that.
That leaves him with Haas. They’ll snatch Ollie for sure, and then go for someone more mature to kinda mentor him.(my opinion) And he isn’t that.
Max would hit him straight in the face and Jos and Helmut would be holding there to take the punch.
But I guess the point is that RB wouldn’t take him, Merc has better options. Williams I guess is a possibility but he has to know Williams is all in on Albon.
I think Haas will keep kmag but even if they don’t they must know that Ocon would be a disastrous teammate for Ollie. Not that Haas much care because Ollie is getting the seat via Ferrari but from a crash budget perspective do they want to deal with the costs Ocon puts on a team?
I actually think Sauber is his only option. I think they want a name brand, I don’t think they will go for someone new in the first instance. I think they want sainz so desperately that they might end up leaving it a bit late to get someone else too calibre and Ocon might just be floating around at that point.
He’s most likely burnt A LOT of bridges with that attitude of his.
