gq Presenting our July cover star, Max Verstappen.

The Formula 1 driver, best known for dominating his sport and more recently his engagement with Monaco's beloved Crown Prince Charles, sits down with GQ to discuss what exactly goes on in a two-time world champion's mind.

Verstappen offers insight into the ongoing season, the surprising way the sport helped bring him and his fiancé together, and the pressures of marrying into royalty, especially as part of a same-sex couple.

Read the July cover story at the link in bio.

Been loving this new trend of Max somehow making top three situations, be it quali or race day, about Lestappen even without Charles there . Like they really are that couple fr .

[thearchercore]

Lol lestappen is absolutely not PR. If they were we'd be seeing 'pap' shots of them hanging out in various places, and there would actually be a clear benefit to both of them out of this.

Instead, the only time we've seen them hang out is playing padel, and none of that is on their social medias. They don't follow each other. They don't post about each other. They basically ignore each other unless they happen to both be in the top three after the race or quali. And most importantly, there's nothing to gain (probably more to lose) to their public reputation by being in a PR friendship.

What they have right now is a tentative friendship based on convenience and a shared hobby.

fr, lestappen outside of work hangouts look like bigfoot footage sometimes lol. other drivers tend to hire a photographer when they play padel with max but that one time we know they were teammates we got one group picture and a video in a quality of a potato.

plus, as i mentioned before, neither max or charles really gain anything out of it. sure, max recently got more positive pr because people look at him and charles and go "oh, charles wouldn't be so fine with hanging out with someone who's an asshole". so in a way, charles humanizes him because people no longer see their own projection of the "mad max" persona the media created. charles doesn't benefit at all - ferrari doesn't vibe with max, the tifosi do not vibe with max. his friendship with max is not important for these people at all.

"What they have right now is a tentative friendship based on convenience and a shared hobby" -- i partially agree, their friendship is definitely stronger than in the past. i think also their shared history and experiences help. but because they're also very private people, i wouldn't be surprised if they talk more than they show in public spaces. they never make any noise when they hang out outside of the paddock, so there could have been moments that we just don't know about and if so -- good for them!

but also one thing i want to note, they are adults with busy schedules so i wouldn't expect them to hang out like besties or teammates because as someone who very much knows the friendship in adulthood experience, hanging out once in 1-2 months is very much the rough reality lol.

[supermaks]

i'm dying for the part 2 of the essential max verstappen races i've watched all the first 10 (teenage crime era) and now i need the rest!!

✨💘 part 1 💘✨💎🧨🌠part 3🗽🎯

Brazil, 2019 In part 1 I said Max always stunted in the US, but like both Americas have a crush on him. People like to yap about his 'luck' and how 'lucky' he is. Max bends luck to his favor with a crowbar if he has to and this race proves that. also shout out to Hannah she’s BEEN the best CS in F1 fr 🌻

Austria, 2019 yes honey, that Austria, 2019. First Honda powered win for red bull and it came on the back of a cracked out prancing horse. Lestappen had angry sex in front of 200000 orange shirts and we just let them

70th year anniversary GP, 2020 Set the scene: for 2020 mercedes has put thee most competent driver of all time behind the wheel of a Boeing 707. They say it's a car but its an airplane ok. So every race is basically like 2 hour long british orgasm ASMR. This one tho, this should've been the beans and toast equivalent to Beyoncé at the superbowl. This should've been their Homecoming. They got 2 races in the calendar for the 1st time, it's F1's birthday, Lewis is driving a commercial airplane, it's happening during peak covid because their prime minister is insane, period. They had it all. Except, it was kinda warm out. And Max Verstappen noticed. Whole british empire vs one man's inability to not be the moment. Guess who won

Emilia Romagna, 2021 emilianos first victory of his maiden title year , and a race I remember watching and thinking. oh okay. so it’s time. With Max, even as a baby fan of both him and Lewis, I was always kinda like, waiting for the dog fight. And finally, lil bro has the car. Everything else was already in place. If u do watch my dumb list in order, which I recommend u do, u can actually c him get ready for 2021 over the years. His starts, and especially this one, become flawless, he has somehow learned how to manage his tires and dominate races in lesser machinery ((we dont talk about it enough. max has won races every single season he's driven in f1. every rbr car he's ever had, he got it home. that's a shooting star fr. thats a once in a lifetime.)) , he's patient, and still uncompromising, still unflinching. He's ready. We were not tho lmfaooo

Zandvoort, 2021 baby boys first home gp win. a lovely lil watch to feel warm and fuzzy inside and also just like watch him be the best driver on the grid at home

Russia, 2021 p20 to p2. Max in the rain, u already know wtf is going ONNN. A race for the GP girlies. SOOO so dope to watch a driver and an engineer orchestrate a comeback of that level in real time. A true privilege and I mean it wholeheartedly. I think GP and Max are soulmates like professionally. Also literally the funniest thing in the world when they're pulling into their lil positions after the race and my fav old man Lewis does a double take like that better not be who I think it is 😭

USA, 2021 listennn. it's 2021. I can't mention Max without mentioning Lewis. They took each other to realms of racing that F1 didnt even remember existed. When I tell u these bitches were 40 seconds ahead of everybody else. 40 seconds. In 2021. But yuh, the blond one set a purple sector with like 100 lap old tires to defend that win. 2021 was just very kind to the Circuit. Sexy sexy race

Jeddah, 2021 well if he's just some guy why does his pussy pop so severely. 😐 No F1 driver will ever serve cunt the way Max served cunt in Jeddah. Driver of the day for no reason other than pure fucking headassery. They said u can't move the culture by losing and that white man said hold on. That quali lap almost put a child in me. I am so sorry

((lil bonus from Zandvoort, 2022 like shut up imagine doing this to lewis hamiltondfmsnfksdlkjf))

Japan, 2022 2nd title win. And fittingly so, he would've lapped the whole field if the race had been completed in its full distance. 1 second faster than everybody else, still improving at the end. But its his recovery at the start that I wanna highlight here. On a wet track, awful conditions, mf sent it outside of t1 around sharl, not because he had to, not because his championship was on the line, but because he could. He went for it, no hesitation. Nobody else would go for a move like that. First, because they wouldnt be able to do it. Its an overtake that requires a control of the car that is left to the Hamiltons and Verstappens of this world. U put a wheel wrong and you’re done. Second, it just wasnt worth it. Rb was a rocket anyway, he would've gotten the lead back eventually. But that is not who Max is. Max refused to give up the lead for even a second. It has nothing to do with having a dominant car, its about racing. Max will always, always go racing. And I love him for it.

ty for reading 💝 I hope that u can return to these races again and again and find joy in watching our fav public enemy number one do his thing. He’s very good at it

F1 Tag Game!!!! 🏎️🏎️💨

didn’t get tagged for this, but it looked like fun!

tagging @theory81 @twinkodium @wanderingblindly @nyoomfruits @eyes-likepilotlights @pastryland @lattesqueeze and @theommin if they’d like to play as well! (no pressure and sorry for double tags!)

1. Who or what got you into F1?

My boyfriend’s family actually! They would watch races on sundays and i wanted to be able to be part of the conversations they would have; so I watched DTS (i know i know 😔) but that’s where it began and now i’m more into the sport than they ever were! 😅

2. Who was the very first F1 driver you supported? Do you support them now? Have your opinions on them differed or stayed the same since then?

unconsciously max (my first race was abu dhabi ‘21 and bf’s family was split on max vs. lewis) i liked max’s spunk :) but consciously sharl because he was such a cutie with a sad backstory 🫣

3. Who’s your current favourite F1 driver?

oscar!

but close runner ups’ include sharl, max, lando and alex :)

4. Is there a driver pairing or pairings you support? What made you attracted to that pairing in the first place?

i have read well over 1 million words of lestappen fic so that’s a safe bet for sure,, but i’m catching up at about a half million for landoscar :) just love the dynamics of both!

5. Do your parents, siblings or relatives have a favourite team and/or favourite driver(s)?

boyfriend loves the mctwinks (like he should)

my mother absolutely adores max. she would put him in her pocket if she could.

6. Do you have any favourite races? Are there any that stand out to you the most?

qatar sprint and race, singapore, and suzuka (all from this year!)

7. Do you have a favourite circuit? Can be from the past or from the current calendar.

monaco and suzuka

8. Have you ever been to an F1 race in real life? Feel free to tell us your experience going to one if you like.

nooooo i wish 😭😭 maybe montreal or cota one day!!!

9. Have you ever met an F1 driver in real life?

if i met a driver it would be like meeting the lord face to face and i would simply perish on the spot i believe

10. Do you have a favourite F1 car? If so, what is it?

hmm not really but the RB19 fucks fr fr

11. Do you have a favourite one win wonder?

honestly pierre’s maiden win at monza was just so emotional to watch, especially the podium celebration. it was literally as if he was feeling the weight of the world fall off of his shoulders because he proved his worth and proved that he had the right to be there after a lifetime of dreaming 🥹🥹

[inchidentally]

tricky asks below! pls do not rb as that removes the readmore for some reason and I want to keep these out of tags <3

the fact that we're having to to discuss friendzoning about two friends anon we're really in it now aren't we

I want to take a moment direct ppl to this interview if they like Carlos tho bc his interviews are always so intelligent and thoughtful. you also get a much more authentic persona out of him when he speaks in Spanish. there are more videos on that account from that interview too.

I love that he listed Checo and Fernando so highly bc of course he gravitates toward ppl he can speak to in his born language. the three of them personality wise are pretty different but whenever they move toward each other you can tell they're in compatriot mode.

but yea what he said re Lando and racing is exactly what Lando says - and what nobody ever wants to post except begrudgingly. the 'bromances' are dressed way up by fans and media but there is no deeper narrative and it's not that serious. when they're driving, all friends disappear bc winning is the only reason to even be in F1 let alone the only way to stay in it for certain. even the comments on videos like that are next to nothing bc they're not "shippy" videos. but it's authentic and true that these guys are F1 drivers first and foremost and wayyyy after that it's nice to have some regular buddies to hang with. we should all be able to put shipping aside and appreciate the actual drivers these guys are and the fact that they can put aside their intense competitiveness to be so friendly.

asgfkasgfksag I love that last part anon. fr I've found it so funny that the larrie carlandos class Oscar in with all the women they despise bc it threatens their ship. it's like sexy Brazilian woman, sexy European woman, sexy IG Baddie, and... Oscar.

that's wild though about lestappen having their own larries. how in the hell do ppl look at Charles and Carlos and even bother pretending they dislike let alone hate each other. we literally have real life F1 examples of teammates who are neutral/uninterested in each other w KMag and Hulk and teammates who bitterly hate each other w Ocon and Gasly. if Charles and Carlos were even in a dislike/disinterest category we wouldn't see them giggling and touching right up to the last day at Abu Dhabi this year. and side note but we also wouldn't see their gfs enjoying spending time together during races and events either, which Alex and Rebecca do.

I've seen that too it's insane. when has Lando NOT considered Silverstone the most important race on the calendar for him?? and nothing will beat his high over that podium until his actual win, nothing. (the fact that he kept saying how Oscar deserved to be up there with him was just the icing on the cake)

and like can they please just remember here that Lando was excited and happy on that podium in Singapore for himself as well???? that his own result meant more to him than a Ferrari driver?? yes he was happy for Carlos but Lando is sort of an actual F1 driver and if he could've knocked Carlos' ass aside and gotten that top spot for himself he very. much. would. have!! and that the double podiums that followed meant more to him bc y'know the team he drives for get more points?? carlando is a miniscule part of Lando's F1 career and Carlos is less a part of his life than Max V in terms of drivers who spend non-driving related time with him. after that being George, Alex and Daniel. and then Carlos.

yea honestly I'm not sure if the larry element has always been in carlando fandom and the latest Netflix/Liberty Media commercialization of the ship has just amplified it or if these are a bunch of new ppl who only go for the unhinged accounts. but that side of the ship literally view Lando as someone who responds to Carlos and does nothing else so huge shock that they try to override his actual choices and his actual race weekend with Carlos literally years after Carlos left him for Ferrari.

I'm guessing it's enraging watching Carlos do with Charles all the jokey sexual/romantic things they kept wanting him to do w Lando but sorry folks for all that we slow down certain moments and obsess over them sharing an umbrella to walk down the pit lane it's literally brotherly behavior. I've got another anon who brought up my tags of carlando being Charles and Arthur and it straight up is. all the physical carlando stuff is what they do. and I say this as someone who fully does twist all those carlando moments into something romantic/sexual lol. but gotta be able to keep that line between reality and fantasy.

fortunately Lando is chronically online enough to brush this crap off and Carlos just sees the carlando fan stuff as decent publicity. but fingers crossed it doesn't escalate even further to Sky Sports or F1 pushing it and fans getting so crazed that Lando or Carlos has to put their foot down. if it's already swamping McLaren social media and Lando's fan accounts then expect it to get even worse.

the lack of Oscar's presence in all of these places is probably the lamest thing bc good lord the guy has a long term gf can they all admit that as Lando's ACTUAL teammate he has more relevance to Lando's career than any former teammate? and can McLaren please get their act together next season and bring back Unboxeds and stop splitting up Lando and Oscar content when they never did this with Carlos or Daniel?? sorry Oscar ain't a wacky character but we all happen to love his dynamic with Lando.

you just answered that question anon and it's exactly why I can't believe they want carlando back as teammates. as things are we get to have a nice sprinkle of carlando content throughout the season and no drama! do they truly want silly challenges videos so badly that they want to watch the entire friendship sink like a stone now that Lando would be challenging and beating Carlos AND that now it would be Lando as first driver and not Carlos? the Sainz family's warmth is there bc they never had to see Lando as a direct competitor or hindrance to Carlos' success. they'd turn on him in a fucking second when Carlos didn't get an update and Lando did or Carlos wanted to change the car but Lando didn't or Lando was the reason why Carlos missed out on a podium. the main reason why Charles and Carlos work so well through the drama is that they're such similar people and can keep a level head and distance from it all. Lando is n o t h i n g like Charles' personality. Lando cannot translate frustration and misery into anything, it just sits with him until he does better. Carlos literally said he didn't know what to do with Lando when he'd get into those funks. imagine all the god awful repeats of that carlando "breakup" clip from 2021 bc Lando can't hide anything on his face and he'd be fed up with Carlos or his family or himself and christ.

it would be so. so very bad. can they at least be happy that Lando's got a nice placid easygoing guy in Oscar as a teammate and carlando content still rolls in.

I could def see the fact that Oscar is neither older brother or younger brother age for Lando and they do all the same gen z references and the same hobbies is probably part of whatever they perceive as a "threat". like it's still such a reach but it would explain the way Lando fan accounts try to post as little Lando with Oscar as possible but dredge up 2019 slowed down Carlos shoulder bumps and shit lol.

truly I personally don't know if the Oscar and Carlos dingdongs play much of a part for carlando fans bc honestly Carlos has quite a few regular enemies on the track alsgfjlsagf. by this time they've got to know that. Carlos sometimes can't drop the red mist even hours after a race so Oscar just happens to have come in for a share in his rookie season! but especially with how much Carlos has actually seemed to chum around with Oscar before and after drivers parades etc (even ignoring Lando a couple times to do so !!!!!! gasp horror etc)

side note that I'd honestly be glad if Oscar chose never to get into golf bc ohhhhh the shit fit if he went golfing at the same time as Lando and Carlos. even though Lando golfs with tons of people and they always play in fours anyway.

I still personally think that the mostly straight women who buy into the bromances to the point of thinking this is how gay relationships actually look are pretty cold toward Oscar bc even Lando has said that Oscar's brought out a new level in Lando's driving and that he likes how calm Oscar is. so the fact that Oscar and Lando aren't fake gaying it up and they're also not doing a bunch of physical touch that can be edited and slowed down to look gay to those women has got to look like Lando being I guess unhappy or like they have no chemistry. so they'll allow that Oscar can be cute sometimes and maybe sometimes he can be cute with Lando. for a treat. but that in their mind Lando is meh about Oscar and is just dying to have the guy back who... actively chose to leave ??

I never saw that cartoon but I remember one from the summer that had Lando and Oscar together in a boat - SHIP CONFIRMED???? CARLANDO OVER??

jesus christ thankfully the drivers never see these comments.

and yikes at the meltdowns over that Carlos trip to Monaco bc he was with Rebecca the whole time and rumors were that they were looking at apartments. I do hate myself for liking gossip but it's literally in a sit back and enjoy the madness way lol.

askfgakg anon are you by any chance part of the sainz family?

(if I didn't answer your ask here it's probably bc it's something I'd rather discuss privately/don't want to stir up in fandom. feel free to message me tho <3 tumblr may also have devoured it bc it still does that sometimes)

fawwkkk i wrote such a long ask about this fic and it got deleted 😭😭 but what i’m saying is this fic is so Crazy .. charles is SUCH an unreliable narrator and so unbelievably selfish and selfless at the same time or maybe not like selfless but. so devoted to max. and him at the end thinking max doesn’t really want/need him but rather just a project to invest his life‘s work into .. max’s obsession with racing and all that he’s lost and his grief and how he has just not dealt with it at all and how charles doesn’t even. Realise all this. Wow. i loved max’s characterisation so much here; in fics he’s usually either completely laidback or portrayed as an overly traumatised baby but this is Perfect .. not that i don’t like the laidback characterisation i just. Love how freaky he is about control here and reading this in charles’ pov you realise how selfish charles is but also just how much he Loves max. and that makes you sympathise with how max doesn’t extend that devotion to him in the same way but also. maybe he Is .. god like. max crying at the end. maybe they’re both just losers and maybe they should keep doing this for the rest of their lives until it kills them both ..

charles IS such an unreliable narrator fr... i love writing highly unstable neurotic personalities with a need for control. idk why...haha :/

i'm so glad u liked max's characterisation!! it was one of my big worries when i was writing it that i was making him too unreadable and closed off so i'm so glad you took so much from him!

i think they're both two very messy unstable people trying to love each other in the way They want to be loved but not realising they're speaking different love languages...i think they should keep doing it until it kills them both! and i think they FOR SURE will.... of every version of them i've written ironically these two are in the least healthy relationship (perhaps with the exception of. the professor/student au i wrote) but i could picture every other version of lestappen that i've written breaking up before i could see these two doing it honestly....

thank u so much for this lovely ask i've reread it so much over the past few days <33333 :***

[racingcore]

i agree with pretty much everything after except about pierre. i need to see that pookie in a nice car pls 🥺

At this point, we are stealing Adrian newey from rb and making ferarri 5 seat team for charles max lewis ollie and Pierre

yes yes please. i can contribute for the salary for everyone. all the nickels i got from Lestappen being track terrors.

but fr, i wanna see pierre in good car.

Alpine was good today compared to every race this season, the upgrades kinda worked but lets hope for little more?

Who r ur main f1 rpf-y ships and what appealed to you about dem? — wisteria

hellooooo my dear! hm okay so lestappen bc roughly 80% of the angsty, mildly incestual and emily bronteyal poetry in the world could be applied to them. landoscar bc fr the content could be guzzled which is the polar opposite to lestappen (also why i like them, so much room for extrapolation). lestappen also simultaneously has the entire universe aligning for them and the universe-old mythos (fwrrari) constantly getting in their way. also landoscar are jsut so. like oscar listens to lando's music before a race bc hes not listening to his own and he can hear it through the wall. oscar doesnt eat salmon at the table anymore bc lando prolly complained within an inch of life death and everything in between. landos learning how to say things like chrysanthemums. the landoscar+textposts on tumblr are just sublime. what more could u ask for.

anywy, thank you for the ask! it was a very pleasant surprise and fun1 to answer 💛🌷🤩

[wisteriagoesvroom]

p.p.s. ha ha ha unfortunately for all of you the lestappen brainrot has consumed me body and soul, so you’ll have to put up w my words for maybe a while longer… a lil threat… a lil promise
