#debated where to put a cut but I think everyone deserves mabio on their dash a lot

[kingofthering]

dare i ask dear maïna. what your favorite mabio podium moments would be ?

CATALUNYA 2019 | Fabio's first podium, Marc doing the "tip of the hat" gesture to him and some classic hand-holding.

ASSEN 2019 | Marc spraying Fabio in the face by surprise (I'll let you guess/remember who he's also done that to in the past).

AUSTRIA 2019 | Fabio bullying Marc this time and Marc being hyper delighted in answer.

MISANO 2019 | We know what that weekend was for Marc re: other things but he also had insane last laps battles with Fabio. Couldn't chose one moment so we get :

Marc applauding Fabio in parc fermé,

drift compatible + hand on back of the head moment on the podium,

bonus : the two of them debriefing the race in the elevator (on their way to the podium) (please look at Marc's face and how happy he is) (full video here).

THAILAND 2019 | The race where Marc famously won his 8th title (and did not need to win the race to get it) after battling with Fabio in the very last laps again. Had Fabio crying after the chequered flag but then it was all good with :

Marc going to Fabio in parc fermé,

Chang International Circuit golf kart to the podium my beloved.

JAPAN 2019 | Fabio getting the "Rookie of the Year" title with :

Marc congratulating Fabio on the title,

Fabio stealing Marc's attention from Dovi and laughing with him (and then them talking together on the whole rest of the way to the podium).

VALENCIA 2019 | Last race of the season, another 1-2 but Marc pulled a gap before the last laps this time. I could have included the sequence before the first gif where Fabio "gently" hits Marc to get his attention and a hug but instead I've given you :

Fabio giving a thumbs up to Santi + a wave and kiss to Roser (which we can see for sure in another angle of that video, it's the cutest thing please),

Post podium/pre press moment where Marc first pulls on Fabio to get his attention and then tells him that Fabio will make his life difficult next season (ugh, what we could have had) and Fabio being at his most golden retriever with the towel in his mouth that he then uses on Marc (your honor, they're flirting).

SACHSENRING 2021 | You don't know how happy it makes me that Fabio got to be there for two of Marc's wins in 2021 (and also there when Fabio won his title). For Germany we have :

Hand-holding post-race,

Press conference moment (look how fond).

COTA 2021 | Always here for cowboys moments :

Gossipy boys in parc fermé,

bonus : Fabio running into an official because he was too busy looking at Marc.
