This was the highlight of the day for me. A little water ballet by Monsieur Leclerc.

FP2 | Canadian GP Practice Day | 7 June 2024

A comparison of neck strength, F2 driver vs. F1 driver:

Charles Leclerc (bottom panel) is able to hold his neck steady as he navigates through S1; his head follows the direction of his travel - i.e. as he makes a left turn, he looks to the left. Meanwhile, fatigue has set in for Ollie Bearman (top panel), and his neck is unable to hold his head up; therefore, as he makes a left turn, the lateral G forces push his head to the opposite side.

An impressive example of how physically demanding F1 is as a sport! Don't ever let anyone tell you that these guys are not true athletes.

Back on my Scuderia Ferrari Team Principal Sebastian Vettel agenda.

I just cannot get over how fucking nice Max is to Charles

Cause Max is nice, but he’s so gentle and sweet to Charles, he always has something good to say about him, it’s so different to how he is with Daniel or Lando, cause he’s nice with them but he’s so much more intense, the jokes, the hugs and pushes and comments and all that, they’re different, he’s careful with Charles

And I think that’s the sweetest thing ever, cause Charles is different than Daniel and Lando, they’re not exactly friends, and they have like 10 years of rivalry under their belt, so having such a gentle and nice approach to their new dynamic is so adorable

“we're on the same bracket.”

i personally feel like there's so much pressure amongst f1 fans to like charles leclerc for no apparent reason

if you say a word about him suddenly you have flocks of lecfosis chasing after you because how dare you talk about their generational talent like that!! how dare you say that he's an awful teammate!! how dare you say that he needs to take accountability for his actions!!

because, let's be honest. the shitty strategy thing doesn't magically make his mistakes out on track disappear. his crashes aren't bad luck, he fucks up. and i'm tired of seeing the lecfosi act like he's a poor little thing who has bad luck and a bad team strategy and never makes mistakes. (not that ferrari has good strategy, but still)

Is that… colour ??? 😍

I taught public high school for five years. I've heard some of the most embarrassing and pathetic things imaginable. But... "Papaya Rules"? Probably takes the cake.

[things-methinks]

The difference between Max and Norris is 62, whereas the difference between Norris-Charles is 24, Norris-Oscar is 44, Charles-Oscar is 20, and Oscar-Carlos is 13.

Charles and Oscar are closer to Lando than Lando is to Max. In fact, Oscar is only 20 points behind Charles. Even Sainz Jr is only 13 points behind Oscar. If Lando has one non-podium finish and one of these 4 win that GP, the gap goes down even if they don't move up. Say Charles wins Baku (we're not going to assume fastest lap, it's a wildcard), he gains 25 points, and Norris finishes at 4th gaining 12 points. Charles would go up 242 and Lando would be 253, an immense reduction.

Not even Charles, if Oscar wins, his wdc points go up 222, and Norris goes to 253, reducing the gap 31. If Sainz Jr finishes above Oscar, he could potentially move above him, even without a podium finish. We could have an even more interesting outcome if one of the Mercs finishes in the top 4, one of these 5 guys would be out of the top 5.

《Edit: I completely forgot we still have 3 sprints left. Putting that into the mix will change things as well. Oscar has done well in Sprints, even cinching his first win at a Sprint in F1. This is another element to consider.》

Charles has gotten pole for the last 3 years at Baku, but we all know the reasons he did not win. Ferrari have shown they can challenge that McLaren rocketship, they have one insane driver. We have 2 kids who are the least experienced in F1 compared to rest of the grid on a decently difficult street track. Baku might be an interesting weekend, but I am not going to say anything.

wow i can't believe you personally hate charles marc hervé perceval leclerc and want him dead and have been actively forming a mob against him all year to personally take him to the guillotine smh

(heavy /s lol)

you've found me out i've been a deep cover spy this whole time

[cupidskissx]

Since the Las Vegas GP Charles has been in the top 4 of every race which is an achievement no other driver can put their name to.

That’s 7 races in a row (8 if you include the Sprint) and 3 of those races he finished in 2nd place.

The start to Charles’ season has been anything but easy, yet despite it all he has put in some incredible recovery drives!

If we want to take this stat further, discounting his DNS (Brazil), DSQ (United States) and DNF (Netherlands) we have to go all the way back to Hungary in July 2023 for Charles to successfully see the chequered flag below 5th. That’s 13 races.

The only other driver to achieve such a feat, also discounting the same factors (DNF), is Max, whose last classification below 5th was Silverstone 2022!

[starboymuse]

a scary video to watch being able to see the sheer physical exhaustion charles and many other drivers were talking about taking over especially in his neck when hitting the high speed corners with high g forces
