Max Verstappen is a better man than me because if I were him, every time someone asked me if I was worried about the championship I would just be like, “I’ve already got 3, and if I don’t get this one, you all won’t remember who won, you’ll remember that I lost” and just walk off

I've been a little out of the loop on all the Gavv spoilers, but I did see the most important part! which is to say that we can expect many scenes of:

I've seen so many questions and conspiracies about the way they're doing media day this year so here's a rundown. They've changed from 2x5 press conferences to 1x6 press conference and extended the duration of said conference. They also got rid of the media pen and changed it to media interviews within the teams hospitality. Those are organised by the team as according to the rules. So the frequency of us seeing the drivers on the couch is less than last year. The pattern they assign drivers to the press conference is also non existent compared to last year. However after Imola, every driver has been in the press conference at least twice with Carlos and Lando appearing 3 times.

[Photo ID: White box with rainbow border. Text reads: 'Statement on DMV Policy Change. LGBTQ+ advocates from around the state organized and mobilized in great numbers this past legislative session. Through actions like protests, letter-writings, die-ins, and more, we defeated 21 out of 22 anti-LGBTQ+ bills attempting to move through the Florida legislature. One of these bills, HB 1639, sponsored by local representative Doug Bankson, was particularly egregious. It sought to redefine "sex" in a way that excludes transgender, non-binary, and intersex people, and to prohibit a person's state identification documents from reflecting their gender identity. As the bill was heading towards its downfall in the legislature, the Deputy Executive Director, Robert Kynoch, of the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (FLHSMV) released a memo to county tax collectors in late January rescinding previous department policy (IR08 - Gender Requirements), which allowed for Florida residents to change the gender marker on their ID to accurately reflect their gender identity. The memo wrongly excludes gender identity from "sex" in an effort to subvert the democratic process to redefine sex - and prohibit gender marker amendments - absent legislative authority. In a similar way, the legislature continued its attacks on the rights of immigrants and people experiencing homelessness in the form of HB 1451. This bill, which passed and was signed into law by DeSantis, restricts the acceptance of community IDs issued by community organizations to immigrants and individuals experiencing homelessness. Community IDs are essential for demonstrating that a person is a resident and member of a given community. It is already tremendously difficult for these groups to acquire valid identification, and this law imposes yet another barrier to identification.' /End ID]

Advocates for transgender individuals, immigrants, and people experiencing homelessness must stand together in the fight for equitable access to accurate identification. We demand that the FLHSMV restore their previous IR08-Gender Requirements policy to ensure that transgender people can obtain accurate IDs. Furthermore, we demand that legislatures take action to protect trans people's ability to obtain accurate identification as well as protect the acceptance of community IDs.

transcription under the cut

Jenson: One final thing, can I just say a massive thank you to my engineer [Andrew Shovlin] who came out on the podium with me today. We've been through a lot of tough times and he's been wicked and today, as we saw, we came out on top and a lot of it was down to him. So thank you very much.
