road leaving my town is one lane on both sides for about 30-40 miles. signs all over telling slow drivers to pull over and let people pass. anyways, I don't even get mad when ppl in front of me start driving extra slow bc they're mad I'm on their ass. I might not be that guy, but there's plenty of guys out there that exist that will run you off the road and literally murder you and I sleep peacefully knowing those vigilant heroes exist and are out there serving justice. your time will come. creating road rage situations isn't as smart as you think it is. just fucking pull over.

#the 'we'll get there on my time' mindset has definitely gotten a bunch of ppl killed #yall are just bad drivers and cant stand ppl wanting you to do the speed limit #even if the person behind you is just a speeder #is it rlly worth it? lmao #anyways i passed that guy eventually #then he tried to ride my ass but im just #too good a driver #sayonara bitch

I'm sorry but James Vowles criticising how Red Bull has treated their drivers in the past, only to go and then treat Logan far worse while pulling the exact same shit Red Bull did, ie the exact behaviour he criticised and called them out for, is so freaking infuriating like the sheer hypocrisy -

#f1 #formula 1 #formula one #james vowles #logan sargeant #best of luck to logan in the future & to franco #but james its on sight #rooting for franco because he's being thrown straight into the deep end #like Singapore of all races will be his third f1 race #and as i said when it was announced daniel was leaving mclaren & oscar was getting the seat #it's never the drivers at fault for a teams shitty behaviour towards a driver #the hypocrisy from james is just leaving a very bad taste in my mouth #edit: also infuriating that of the latest batch of rookies oscar & yuki are the last ones standing #zhou currently has no confirmed seat #they're the only rookies of the past 4 years left #mick has no seat #nicolas latifi has gone back to business school which good for you nicky i hope you're doing well #sorry but i went back to university in 2023 too so i feel a kinship with him lmao #less said about that nameless haas driver the better #nyck is the endurance championship now i think #i dont think I'm missing anybody

he may not realistically be in the battle for the drivers championship anymore, however that doesn’t at all minimise just how proud i am of all lando has achieved this season. 3 wins (including his maiden), 7 poles, 12 podiums, leading his team to first place in the constructors championship, securing the most points of any mclaren driver in history. and that’s just on track, off it i am immensely proud of his growth too, from being someone who always saw everything as glass half full and was always so hard on himself, to the way he now talks in interviews you can see his confidence and belief in his own abilities has come on so far (as it should). it’s so nice to see how far he’s come from the little boy who started out in f1 so many years ago. maybe this year wasn’t his for the championship but mark my words, his time will come.

#also the championship battle was always an unrealistic hope that got thrusted on him and us after he had *checks notes* got his maiden win #max was always the most likely candidate with how the start of the season went #and no lando didn’t bottle anything it wasn’t landos to lose it wasn’t easy for lando to win it and embarrassing because he didn’t manage #if you compare the grid mix up and different winner this year as opposed to the years max won previosly they are completely chalk and cheese #lando had tough competition week in and week out he didn’t just have to beet one driver and call it a day #he had lots of drivers in cars capable of getting a win #(not too mention his team on far too many times working against him or leaving him to fend for himself)#so the fact he was even in talks of being a contender for the championship is a win in itself #and when he does gets that championship it’s going to feel so good #it’s not if it’s when #lando norris

People being like “oh well Max didn’t complain last year🤪🤪” He literally said the first half of the race was boring??? And then we literally chaos last year???? Rain??? Sliding??? Poor decisions??? PIT STOPS???

Didn’t realize max is the only driver who isn’t allowed an opinion and at least he doesn’t change his opinion when it suits him like other drives😎

#he’s always had the same opinions about racing #Monaco isn’t good unless there is rain and quali #he’s always said the cars are too big #max literally is the only driver who wants good racing with smaller cars #doesn’t change his opinion when it doesn’t fit his narrative unlike two drivers #rambles #max verstappen #f1 #formula 1 #red bull racing

Damn, I gotta watch indy car now???

(still holding out hope for a haas seat but if he'd preform better in indy car then I'd take it)

#its so confusing to look at #ive watched a couple races but never got into it #too many drivers 4 me personally #and it doesn't look as good as f1 #hoping this isn't true but its better than nothing #id watch it for him #logan sargeant

just saw someone call charles' career 'common successes' the pole to win ratio agenda is too severe because in no way is 26 poles without a championship winning car common at ALL

every time he wins it's after ten thousand trials and tribulations and his wins this year mean so much more to me than if he had a dominant car. i said it last year and i think so doubly now that he impresses me with every race like he is him and i truly think he is the best.

Yuki could find the cure for cancer and solve world hunger and Redbull would STILL find a reason not give him that second seat.

#what does yuki have to do to be respected as a driver #he has progressed every single year and developed into a great driver #all that and still he gets nothing for it??#how do you get punished for being too good??#redbull makes my brain hurt with these dumb decisions #yuki tsunoda #my ramblings

I know we joke Lawrence Stroll is basically a bond villain, but my god, I have to take off my hat to him. Man joined this sport purely to support his son's career and dreams, and has seemingly just managed (not officially confirmed as yet) to nab the key to achieving those dreams in certified freaking car genius Adrian Newey, the man behind car designs that won 6 constructors' championships, 7 drivers championships, and earned 120 podiums to date for red bull alone. He's won 12 constructors' championships in total with 3 different Formula One teams (red bull, williams & mclaren). And now, he's apparently chasing Max too. I have to admire this man's sheer commitment, I now need him to win (sign newey & Max when the time comes) so badly now to see him rub the entire paddocks nose in it lmao.

#f1 #formula 1 #formula one #max verstappen #lawrence stroll #lance stroll #aston martin #adrian newey #if Adrian's at am I'm happy to go there with max lmao #provided we have good strategy too #hannah schmitz is right there #and kindly please bring gp too #him and max are a joint set not sold separately #but also... is aston martin going to be the first team with three drivers on the grid?#because like good luck babe if you think you're going to kick Fernando out after teasing him possible wins with Newey's designs lmao #Lawrence stroll going from bond villain to antihero in my eyes wasn't what i expected ngl especially not so quick #but i am an adrian newey stan so c'est la vie #lawrence stroll bond villain (affectionate)#toto wolff bond villain (derogatory)#<- I'm sorry lmao that's just my pov #honestly though nothing would be funnier than toto failing to sign max again oh I would die laughing

din djarin, age 10: clone wars refugee child

boba fett, age 11: in federal prison for destroying an entire venator while trying to kill mace windu

#star wars #din djarin #boba fett #redbean talks #meanwhile jango; age 14: the actual mand'alor #very funny to realize that din and boba are almost the same age #when you look at the difference in what they were doing for most of the clone wars #din at age ten was a small frightened child hiding from super battle droids behind a space dumpster(?)#boba at age ten was jangos copilot/getaway driver for jedi-hunting missions (and also an equally small child)#then three years later was a full blown crime boss and involved in human trafficking #i really want to see more of the mundane conversations about raising grogu #like among the mandos there's #din (children of the watch hardcore mando): i must teach my small son to shoot #boba (literally-lifelong bounty hunter raised in child soldier central): do you want recommendations for good starting blasters #bo katan: i asked the armorer to make a custom set of knives too btw #the armorer (already made armor for small son): dont you think he needs a flametrhower for his birthday #and then the Associates #they've got ig11 (trigger happy assassin droid); fennec (experienced bounty hunter who fought cad bane at age early-20s?)#krrsantan (crazy gladiator probably-madclaw); koska (tackled boba as an introduction); axe (stabbed paz over a game of chess)#and then. there is Luke.#imagine everyone pondering over how to modify a disruptor rifle to fit very small arms #(because boba's absolutely going to spoil his small green nephew)#and luke just in the background like 'maybe we should. not? give the preschooler a deadly weapon? this is not safe?'#din: eh he's smart he'll be fine #luke; fearing for his life: it's not him im worried about-

i don’t think death threats and shit are justified ever and people ought not send them, especially over motorsport, but it does irk me how some norris fans are straw-manning this into ‘we just think it’s toxic to hate on ANY drivers for existing and doing nothing wrong’ as if people who don’t like him have no developed reasoning and they’re taking a stand against hate broadly when i dislike norris for valid reasons based on his past behavior, not just for shits and giggles

#like yes he’s probably receiving an inordinate amount of hate #however #some of it genuinely is justified #a la donald trump #and how he sometimes conducts himself #like i’m sorry but good lord sometimes you have to accept that your fave is problematic a little #respectfully if any of my drivers behaved the same way i would be griping about that too #it’s not because i hate lando #the behavior divorced from him entirely still isn’t acceptable #that’s my gripe #anyway i’ve been on the lando hate horse a lot this weekend #anti lando norris #gaz speaks #waiter waiter more nuance please
