lando talking about carlos’s move to williams 😭😭😭
“i don’t know what the plans are. honestly the easy one is just to say redbull. he should have gone there. in my eyes obviously i know carlos more than that i know checo. carlos deserves a lot he’s just one of the best drivers in F1, he’s proving that countless times. i am a good friend of him, you know. i am happy for him that he’s in F1, i am happy that he got a drive and that he can try bring williams back up and him partering alex i think it would be good for F1. so that’s a good thing, but i am sure a lot of people would have loved to say that he should have gone to redbull but that’s not my decision to make.”
#lando you beautiful man#i love how he loves carlos#carlos to redbull was 100% the right decision#I don’t know what redbull is doing either#who’s cutting the onions though seriously#carlos sainz#carlos sainz jr#scuderia ferrari#ferrari#lando norris#carlando#mclaren racing#mclaren#formula one#f1

Did carlos also used the friend word? Do you know when?
Hi, so I actually compiled some links mostly for myself, but also for you and anyone else interested. See below the cut!
Times Charles has referred to Carlos as a "friend":
The most recent instance: 'He has obviously become a friend.'
‘We were already good friends before we joined Ferrari.'
'We have a very special relationship. I mean, we are obviously friends outside the track as well. We are sharing good moments. We spend so much time - I mean, I see Carlos more than my own family...'
Times Carlos has referred to Charles as a "friend":
'My teammate and I are friends off the track, we get along very well and we have a very good relationship. And we make a very good team. I think that if there is something that worked and works in Ferrari, it is the two drivers...' (translated from Spanish)
This is just what I could track down, but if anyone knows of others let me know!
Carlos has spoken about how he and charles get along very well, but that it's hard for him (and other drivers) to truly be friends with their teammates bc they're always so competitive with each other, and there's so much pressure to beat one another. ("Friend is a strong word that I don’t like using for anything or anyone.") And combine that with what we know about how, as a kid, he was surprised by other kids he thought were his friends running him off track and out of the race, we can see how much weight he applies to the 'friend' label.
To Carlos, I think a 'friend' is someone that a part of his brain would hesitate to race too hard against, and he can't let that happen with his teammate, who he wants and needs to beat more than anyone. He can afford to maybe leave Lando or Alonso a little more space on track bc he values his relationship with them as friends, and they're not currently his teammates. But he can't let himself have that relationship with Charles, or, for that matter, Alex next season.
Will he be able to say that he and Charles are friends more readily next year when they aren't teammates any longer? I think so. That was certainly the case with Lando. But I also think his relationship with Lando was a bit different - Lando was almost like a little brother to him. With Charles, he's more firmly a peer, and I think that hyper-competitiveness between them may always linger, right up until they aren't racing eo anymore, maybe especially bc their partnership was cut short before either could win a championship as teammates.
Time will tell, but it's clear that they already view their time together very fondly. They've spoken plainly about 'hating each other' inside the helmet when they've battled and disagreed, but that they always make up after two minutes. It's beautiful that they can always come back to the respect they have for one another. It's a unique relationship, and I look forward to seeing how it evolves in the years to come. ❤️
#it's interesting to me that the first time Carlos calls them 'friends' is *after* he's found out they'll no longer be teammates 🤔#and also that it's in a spanish interview#I just think he has a weightier definition of the word and he doesn't use it lightly#I also think it's interesting that charles is usually the one throwing words like 'friend' and 'hate' around#i think they both *feel* things very passionately but that Charles is more open about it and Carlos more internal#and that also perhaps charles finds it more manageable than Carlos to be friends and be able to swing from loving to hating eo#whereas Carlos prefers to keep Charles in the 'teammate' box and not have to feel badly about racing him aggressively#but regardless it's impressive that they can always bounce back from disagreements so quickly#it's very mature honestly and speaks to how well they know eo that they can just smile at eo and understand#charlos#anon#ask

As a Chinese person from Hong Kong I'm going to officially say this absolutely blows my mind. Here's why.
In the video, Charles and Carlos were plainly copying calligraphy stroke-by-stroke from a large image in front of them. What makes Carlos' attempt so impressive is that he's effectively gotten nearly all the proportions, starting and ending brush pressures and tail-offs, and the structure right. It's not perfect. But it's damn well near perfect.
Compare it to Charles': Charles didn't do a bad job at all, and has successfully copied many of the requisite features, but he has seen each stroke as a line, as many people who write Chinese characters with ballpoint pens do nowadays - point A to point B, with natural loss of shape and flow in between. It's not necessarily a problem. Charles is writing the characters. But interestingly, Carlos isn't writing at all.
On rewinding the video you see why Carlos' was shaped so perfectly. He doesn't know Chinese. He doesn't know anything about stroke order, or speed. But he knows detail.
If you look at his hands as he writes he separated each stroke into a shape. Then he did his level best to recreate each shape as carefully as he could by pressing the brush until he could see it formed the right thickness of the line.
He didn't write, like Charles did. He painted.
If this is how good Carlos is at copying a language he does not know I wonder how amazing he would be at painting if he actually spent time to learn.
#For reference I and a lot of other native Chinese dialect speakers and writers do what charles did#we process the characters as words and the strokes as components of that word and sacrifice specific brushtroke shape#it's one of the first things you have to de-learn if you didn't do calligraphy as a child#seriously as a Chinese person from Hong Kong this is the hottest thing Carlos Sainz has ever done I'm in love#f1#carlos sainz#charles leclerc#charlos#chinese gp 2024#my post#I AM YELLING OK#A recurrent mistake that Carlos made was the angle and continuity of the 2nd stroke of 力#that's his only obvious mistake#but the 觉 blows my mind#and the FREAKING LAST STROKE OF THE 星 RADICAL#HOW HE COPIED THE THIN CURVE OF THE FINAL HORIZONTAL STROKE#I AM LOSING IT AT 1:50 AM ON A TUESDAY MARRY ME

i feel like some have already talked about this but i really love the subtle ways the episode showed how carlos isn't doing well. like, on paper, everything looks great. he solved the case he was working on, he's making time for lunch dates with his husband, things are falling into place.
and then we see that he's working late a lot. it's become a pattern of him forgetting about dinner and just managing from a vending machine. he's looking at that picture of his dad every time he opens the file for his case. he's still hurting so much, and carrying such a heavy weight on his shoulders, and so much of that is conveyed in just these little details and rafa's expressions, it's so good
#the vending machine detail absolutely breaks me like. carlos reyes is just surviving off a vending machine#the one who loves cooking and feeding people and clearly puts so much time and thought into that#such a brilliant way to illustrate how much he's struggling#makes my heart ache for him but it's being done so beautifully#i love the way it's both - it's him trying to be the best husband and ranger he can and also so clearly struggling#it feels so real and so carlos to me#he's trying to juggle and balance and he'd put so much effort into doing that until he just can't anymore#911 lone star#carlos reyes

wide awake for carcar teammates au... oscar finds that he doesn't actually mind carlos as a teammate. maybe in a different world, where they'd be in different colours, they would be strangers. but in this one, they're...good. it's hard to dislike someone who takes their job very seriously, and also always goes out of his way to bully a smile onto oscar's face. it's hard to dislike someone who was dnf'd because of a bad collision but still comes over to celebrate his teammate's podium with a sincere congratulations and a warm hug. if only he didn't like to hold oscar around the waist so often... or tug gently on his hair... or call him my love like it should mean something...
#carcar#5581#fic#??? sort of#just brainrot#also inspired by how carlitos treats everyone he loves like he's in love with them#osc would be so confused#omg what if carlos calls all his friends my love honey sweetie darling etc#but he calls ONLY OSCAR mi vida...muñeco...angelito...lindo...#and everyone EXCEPT oscar notices#the thing with c² is charles plays along and is just as affectionate... osc would not be lmao#he'd awkward and blushing and i would like every pr video of them their team pushes
