yeah F1 is cool but imagine a driver gets shunted and he bodily rips off his rear wing (Which fucking says "Race Against CRIME") as he's being swarmed by officials

And he just yeets it at the guy who shunted him
#THANKS FOR TELLING ME ABOUT THIS ANON I LOVE YOU#F1 COULD NEEEVEEERRRRRR4#like pls tag the drivers who would SIKE THEYRE ALL TOO PUSSY#this is dangerous disclaimer etc etc but im also dry HEAVING#+ also before anyone nascar-splains this to me but there is no bumper equivalent in f1 so i said rear wing

This race was also a massive middle finger to everyone who said that Charles isn’t a smart driver. The one-stop strategy? It was Charles’ idea! Ferrari originally wanted to put him on a two-stopper. Charles knows exactly what he is capable of and proved it on the track today
#i never want to hear anyone (*cough* damon hill *cough*) claim charles isn’t a smart driver#i could go on and on and on about what an insane drive he put on today#f1#formula 1#formula one#charles leclerc#cl16#scuderia ferrari#japanese gp 2024#japan gp 2024

Vettonso complaining about each other not respecting schrondinger's track limits on the radio compilation + Seb's commentary that made me a bit feral


Must include these sexy ass pics okay, it makes me feral how hard they race each other.
Also SO upset that we got this vid and there's also pictures(and presumably a vid out there somewhere) of Fernando, back then, ALSO debriefing this race. And yet we never got them together?????? Evil. Fucked up.


Imagine seeing them complaining about each other but also having to (begrudgingly if you're Fernando) compliment each other IN FRONT of each other. Maybe its a good thing it doesn't exist, bcs then I'd have a heart attack.
#this is just a supercut of the f1 vid in the source so you should watch that as well :)#thank you boo to inadvertently pointing me towards this moment cause man it makes me insane#like the added context of knowing seb was just being bratty cause he KNEW fernando was heated on the radio is SO funny#fernando's radios....actually so feral#'give back the position IMMEDIATELY'#fernando i dont have the position but i will do my best to give it to you anyways#grrrrrrr theres smth about getting to see seb discuss such a vettonso hard racing moment#he clearly respects him 🥹#but even years on you can tell hes SO pleased abt how much he was irritating fernando#this is the kinda clip that makes me wish f1 had proximity chat#them both on the radio like 'does that idiot EVEN know what hes doing'#also the annoying confidence of seb on the radio saying its fernando's fault if he gets a punctuee#and not even mentioning the fact that he could get a puncture 😭#but again. to hear him complimenting Fernando really kills me#just about his spacial awareness and how seb feels like he can always race him to the limit bcs he TRUSTS him#like that is the true f1 romance to me. racing someone hard and complaining on the radio but +#admitting that you never rly felt in danger bcs you TRUST the other driver!!!!!!!#i love sassy angry radios. they both sound so........yeah. im unwell#f1#formula 1#sebastian vettel#fernando alonso#we do a little bit of f1#2014 british gp#vettonso

"Statement win" meanwhile Max got P2 in a shitty ass car. THAT is a statement.
#anti lando norris#max verstappen#could NEVER make me hate him#this guy was worrying about max being behind him with the fastest car on the track#one of the best drivers in F1 history for a reason

Good for the drivers to unite against the obvious lack of consistency and transparency on fines and on how the fia president presents himself.
That being said, I'm hoping the same energy will be shown by the GPDA when it comes to racism, harassment, xenophobia, misogyny in the paddock and on the stands.
Oh and on the fia actually following the guidelines and rule books they have written themselves.
#like good for them the gpda is finally doing something#but I'm also gonna need them to step up to issues that don't revolve only about money#when it was only two or three being affected it was fine#Seb and Lewis showdown in Miami was in 2022 and it took them this long to see how that could affect the rest#and that's not to mention how some drivers have been calling for consistency FOR YEARS#anyway it's a start#formula 1#f1#formula one#ella asks

Why is Lando your number one enemy lol
there was that whole trump thing that i made some posts about a while ago, but now it's his behavior after the canadian gp
basically, on the podium, during the dutch national anthem, a bunch of fans started chanting lando's name. he responded by raising his arm and hyping them up.
this kind of fan behavior is normal for f1, but that kind of reaction from a driver has not been normal in recent years as far as i can tell.
for a recent example, in imola, when the tifosi were being tifosi during the dutch national anthem, charles leclerc did not start cheering them on from the podium.
additionally, post-quali in monza last year, when fans were booing max, charles stepped in and told them to cut it out.
theres other examples of fans doing this, but im not going to list them all because the general driver reaction has been to ignore it. someone correct me if im wrong, but i cant find any recent example of a driver hyping up fans like this in the middle of a national anthem.
overall, it is a pretty disrespectful move to do something like this. maybe if it hadn't had been in the middle of the anthem, it would get less of a reaction, but because it was it's just kinda dubious. if max or another driver like lewis or charles had done something like this, they would be torn to shreds in the media. like max himself has always spoken highly of lando, so to see lando turn around and do stuff like this to him in turn just kinda shows his immaturity and general disrespect for others.
#i could talk more about his immaturity in regards to stuff like the miami win#and maybe im being overly critical#but when u compare his behavior to other drivers at the top like max and charles or to his own teammate oscar#like theres a clear difference#reds ask tag#formula 1#f1#canadian gp 2024#anti lando norris#there was also his seb comments and his comments about the safety car#but honestly they arent as big of a deal in my opinion#but they certainly dont look great when compounded with this

Do u guys ever stop and think about the fact that the current drivers future kids might grow up and also be in the sport?
#like in 30 years u could hear someone talking about leclerc but it's not Charles?#or a piastri but it's not Oscar#fuck that would be so wierd#but in all seriousness which of the drivers future kids would be drivers?#f1#formula 1#formula one#max verstappen#charles leclerc#lando norris#mclaren#f1 red bull#oscar piastri

HOW DID I FUCKING FORGOT IT WAS MAX'S BIRTHDAY OH MY GOD I AM SO DUMB HAPPY BIRTHDAY MAX KNOW THAT YOUR MERCH POPULATES MY VIRGINITY CORNER
#clarification: I have a bunch of F1 themed stuff that's mostly RedBull/Max themed#I call it the verginity corner cause being a RedBull fan in Italy is a surefire way to never get laid#not that I was having much luck before#ANYWAY HAPPY BIRTHDAY MAX!!!!! Happy birthday to the guy who got me into this sport#simply because I believed the memes about his dominance must have been exaggerated#Like nobody can win this much#right?#but he could. I miss those days. Anyway happy birthday to my most dangerous parasocial relationship#I am still firmly convinced I could pull him if he wasn't an F1 driver#he could infodump to me about cats and I could infodump him on. So much fucking stuff.#(also thanks Max for getting into F1 which made me grew closer with a friend because we're the only F1 fans in the friend group)#max verstappen

In the most logistics obsessed way, I want to be added to the pj drivers gc where they decide who flies with whom after every race
#formula 1#f1#lando norris#oscar piastri#alex albon#have all brought it up in some way#and#fernando alonso#george russell#max verstappen#have been known to share planes before#I just wanna know who coordinates everything#I know they have managers but like#do max and Lando argue about padel and walk onto the same plane together#is Lewis integrated in this group AT ALL#I have so many questions#where do their core teams go?#with them?#but that’s like 6 people a driver how does that work#or is it just drivers and maybe wags if they’re there#ugh#IM JUST A LOGISTICS HO#this isn’t meant to be stalkery I swear#I’m just curious about dynamics#and low-key feel like I could have great planning input#ya knows

George managing to turn the majority of the F1 community against him in a day after improving his image these past few weekends with good results. Definitely did not anticipate him becoming the main character these last couple of races
#my opinion on george has changed over this season#i don't care if he does good or bad#he delusionally thinks he can get a podium every weekend which is what i think most f1 drivers should aspire to do#it's their job to think that they're the best of the best. is it arrogance? of course!#what i did not like was his comments about beating lewis in his first season in merc#lewis was doing all of that experimenting so that the car could function. that's why he didn't score as many points as he should#it's disingenuous to say you beat lewis without mentioning what really happened that season#anyway i do not have to care about what he does. some self-awareness could benefit him#i just hope he goes into next season being aware that his words could come back to haunt him#f1#formula 1#george russell

There's something inherently romantic to me about having to hold a magazine open for your rival to sign

#okay thinking deeply bcs the caption says they're both signing#and yet theres only pics of seb holding the pen and signing it 🤔#JUST THINK ABOUT HOW GLORIOUSLY AWKWARD#dhfjfkf just think about that you get the chance to interact w TWO f1 drivers at once#and youre like hey. could you hold this lol#or or!!! did seb make him 🤭 did he offer 🤭🤭🤭🤭#i love vague events like this bcs i can make up my own storyline!#thought i should post this since im referencing it in a fic im working on#<- working on is such a word for looking upon it and fact checking details i already know#vettonso#f1#formula 1#sebastian vettel#fernando alonso#we do a little bit of f1

seb to porsche for 2025 pls because i want seb/andre with the entirety of jev floating between them
#seb who took jev with him to ferrari but who made fun of formula e. who apologized later for it.#jev who could have been sebs successor at redbull. jev who was ferraris sim driver hoping to get kimis seat#jevs ex teammate and sebs twice almost teammate#each of their interactions is about jev#jev doesn't even feature he has his life to get to#jev who was obsessed with f1 for so long and andre who couldn't care less about f1 and seb who left f1 with both regrets and happiness.#raaaaaaaah brainworms#sebandre what a concept#also parallel to that is mick/jev. why? because i said so

Should we riot about Monaco GP?
#monaco gp#they fucked her up#lets riot#lets boycott#this is step fucking one on setting a 'specual' rule for every race#they are changing the sport completely#and some of these changes are irreversible#f1#ranting because I'm pissed off#why change my fav race#why change any of the races#fia could just hand out fines for drivers daring to breathe at the wrong moment and set up their own fucking result for the championship#why race any of the races?#fia could just announce the championship results now for the 2026 season too#who cares about the racing if you take out the soul of it?

was just reading a fic that made me think about the fact that i work daily with athletes in a sport where ice baths are very extremely common, and i am just now imagining what would happen if i was ever like 'hey guys, we're sending cameras with you today!' like. it's insane that f1 teams just do that.
#i mean i know WHY f1 does that#but it still feels like. idk. f1 sexualizes their athletes a weird amount compared to any sport i have ever worked in anywhere#which is why when bro-y bros complain about 'fangirls who just watch bc they think the drivers are hot'#i'm like okay well... take it up with the teams then? they're the ones egging everyone on?#also i originally wanted to be like 'well my athletes are just children'#but then remembered they are fully the same age as like. oscar piastri in 2023.#older than kimi. older than lando when he debuted.#late night thoughts with soph#(who is ALWAYS on her 'we should never sexualize people for doing their (not inherently sexual) jobs' bullshit)#like i know some of them (pierre carlos lewis) do it to themselves and that's really fine!! they totally should if they want!!!#'they could say no!' be so fr. they are ppl who have extremely limited jobs in a very cut-throat industry.#that's not the most consent-y situation a person can be in.#anyway!!! fuck an ice bath video they make me very uncomfortable generally!! that's the thesis

the red of his cheeks bringing out the blue in his eyes
#i could write paragraphs about a face like that#he is so pretty I could cry#if i had to drive on the same track as him id just crash every time i saw his car knowing such a beautiful man drives it#how do the other drivers live with that fact#im so in love#max verstappen#mv33#red bull racing#f1

i'm sure i won't say anything that hasn't been said already about the fia's new rules, but i find it absoloutely insane, how comfortable they feel going on a power trip like that, tweaking about cursing of all things, crying about recieving rightful, needed and valid backlash at some of their decisions and their inconsistency when it comes to enforcing rules, when they could be making sure the sport is safe and that the drivers are protected. in conclusion when mbs getts butthurt he flexes his power over the drivers like the little bitch he is
#so many things to focus on and they only care about not being critised#crazy to me#i honestly hope the drivers will go on a strike and the gdpa takes serious action because shit like this has no place in a sport#if you can't judge and trust the governing body it's a DICTATORSHIP#not to mention the “no political speech and actions” part when the motherfucker dickried trump out in the open#somthing needs to happen about this because this could potentially ruin f1#formula 1#formula one#f1
