They knew who they were going to give that race to going into it lmao.

Lando just spontaneously has car issues that need fixed right before lights out? Yeaaaah, sure.

And then they didn't have any special hats or celebratory merchandise around for Lando's, a driver who has been part of their team in a reserve driver or active driver role since 2018, maiden win, but they just so happened to have enough OP1 hats just randomly laying around the paddock for all the team members to wear?

Not to mention the slowing Lando down throughout the ENTIRE race with these absurd claims his tyres were going off. And when he finally caught on that it was bullshit when they were begging him to just let Piastri by, suddenly he's the fastest driver on track by a long shot. Funny how that works.

He wasn't going to win that race going into it. He never had a chance. Andrea Stella made sure of that, and if Lando has any braincells and actually wants a WDC in his career, he'd be trying to find a way out of that contract.

They knew who they were going to give that race to going into it lmao.

Yep. Exactly.

I started getting this really icky feeling during the first part of the race. I could go all the way into it and I probably will later but for now I’ll just say that if anyone wants to look at Lando’s onboard, it is blatantly clear that they had Will hold Lando back for majority of that race.

There is no way Lando suddenly pulled that pace out of his ass. They never planned to give him a chance to actually fight for that win after lap 1 and it was depressing to watch. And I agree that he caught on. And I’m glad he made a point.

Part of me wishes he would have just taken the win and the other part knows he did the right thing on protecting himself after the team gave him the message loud and clear that they would make him regret it.

It was probably an absolute scene, me getting ready for church and jumping up and down yelling at Lando to “be a cunt!!! Don’t you dare give up your position!!!” Lol.

I really hoped this team would reciprocate his loyalty and dedication, pushing away the little red flags that have been popping up for me since some choices they made during races in 2023. But Andrea and McLaren really scooby doo villained themselves today and tore the masks off. It’s very disappointing.

some of my favorite things about Anora in no particular order (SPOILERS BELOW):

the goons, wow what all timer movie goons. concussed guy for goon of the year

when anora beats the shit out of those goons for a fifteen minute stretch and they get increasingly more afraid of her. comedy gold, just pitch perfect comedy treading the line between should-i-be-worried-for-her and the disarming buffoonery of the goons

ivan's mom stomping on the last step of the private jet stairs. her incredible houndstooth suit. every second of her on screen.

all of them throwing the pens at the annulment woman

ivan's dad dying laughing during the annulment as anora throws all of the moms shit on the ground

every parking in new york joke from the ticket in front of the courthouse to getting towed down on brighton beach

how the entire time, nobody pulls out a weapon, not once. and yet, the threat of violence and danger still lingers in the periphery because of the deftly constructed tension of the roving camera and contextually what we don't know about this family and the broader scope of ivan's world and the looming threat of the parents. how far can she push the goons until they get violent, and yet they never really do, but baker never lets you exhale that breath.

when they walked into tatianas..... like sean does his RESEARCH

also the t.A.T.u needle drop like i screamed

also the fight over driving or walking for five minutes in the cold. the new york specificity in this movie is pinpoint accurate, down to the mundane

the ending, her having a breakdown release of everything that had happened to her and how humiliated she was, but also how she thought she had gotten out and made a fairytale of her life. how using her body was the only power she has ever had, and how that was what she defaulted to with Igor in that last scene, but it was when he wanted to kiss her that the facade of power broke down and so did she. how she had to face her own humanity, and in that moment ask herself if she wanted to kiss him, because he was giving her perhaps her first real choice in a long time, and that opened a pathway to maybe questioning whether she truly wanted any of what had happened to her. maybe in that moment she realized that her body is not as powerful as she perhaps convinced herself it was. she was far more powerless than all her bravado and will probably always be powerless in the socioeconomic systems of the world that are built up around her. how disposable she was made to feel maybe for the first time, and how she thought she had built up that bravado and detached arrogance around herself so that she would never feel that way, but the feeling still seeped through nonetheless. all of that delivered wordlessly, in silence, buried under the falling white snow that will throw a white, pristine blanket over everything as if nothing significant had happened at all.

but also like igor, i too would fall in love with her almost instantly and tbh i did. rip to Ivan, anora i am hopelessly in love with you, and i would die for you.

the amount of people saying lando was robbed or that he deserved this win instead under oscar’s winning post is just infuriating

oscar DOES deserve this win ESPECIALLY after mclaren has consistently fucked him over for lando’s sake, which has often not even led to lando winning

what happened today was even more of an example of mclaren prioritizing lando and pitting him first despite oscar literally leading the race

so lando fangirls stfu
