Why did I see someone say something along the lines "Seb's probably thinking what's the point racing if Lewis isn't there"?

I hate how much s/ewis shippers reduce to Seb to how he relates to Lewis & to just being "grid dad". Yes, Seb has taken some of the younger drivers under his wing but that's not all he is. He is an incredibly talented driver and I swear to God of AM don't give him a decent car to show I'm going to lose it. His story in F1 doesn't begin or end with Lewis. It didn't start when he moved to Ferrari either, but they don't like to acknowledge his incredible time & achievements at Redbull prior to that because well he had the car and the team to challenge lewis - and won.

Bottom line is Seb is not only his own person but he's also a real living breathing human, not just one half a "ship".

"Seb's probably thinking what's the point of racing if Lewis isn't there"?

Please tell me which idiot said this so that I can block them and everyone who liked/reblogged this piece of horse shit 🤢🤢

I... I really can't imagine what kind of delusion is needed to think like this. The way some of these people's minds work is absolutely a case of slow brain rot.

Sebastian is not the kind of man who measures his own self worth with the accomplishments of his rivals. That's someone else, but I won't name him. Have you ever seen the guy EVER talk about how XYZ season could have been his win/how he could have been X times WDC if he was driving YZ car or for LM team? Has he ever compared himself to LH? Has he ever said anything that can be interpreted as he is needing to win against ONE specific person to feel himself accomplished/successful? Man, the guy just wants to f/ucking win one more time as he so deserves. It doesn't matter against whom, he is not someone who will find any form of MORE satisfaction in winning against one specific person. His rival can be LH, can be Chal, can be Max, can be Dan, who cares? I am positive he doesn't give a single f/uck either as long as it gives him the adrenaline and that surge of passion that comes with racing and winning.

And also, how can ppl discredit all the fantastic talent on the grid as if only LH is there as a talent? Look, I personally believe that if F1 was a single/same spec series, all the guys i listed above and some more would have been on quite the similar level. To claim that Seb wouldn't be happy to race and win against anyone else but LH is a gross discredit to them all. But I know why they delude themselves so.

They want sth like in the movies. They want them to be obsessed with each other to the point that winning against anyone else wouldn't suffice or feel worthy enough (look at the level of god complex they try to slap on these dudes 😂) They want them to be each other's single most important focus that after one leaves racing, the other one, no matter what kind of talent is on the grid to race against, would lose his interest and leave, too, forlorn and hurt and dissatisfied, alas... 😂😂

I am pretty sure LH was secretly happy to see Seb is no longer in a position of challange and thus modified his stance accordingly, suddenly friendlier and kinder and more compassionate. And I am pretty sure, Seb doesn't care about the presence or absence of a guy on the grid while deciding on his future plans. Why should he give a f/uck actually other than the generic "oh, we are saying goodbye to a huge star" kinda stuff? In what way the s/ewis idiots think Seb's life will be negatively impacted upon LH's leave? How absurd and laughable is reducing Seb's career to those 2017-18 years and his inability to win the WDC not just due to his own shortcomings? We all know if Ferrari didn't have an internal politics war and make all the wrong decisions in car upgrades in the second half of the season, Seb might very well win in 2018 with some luck. But that's another story.

2010/2013 was something else and these so called Seb fans should really watch those races and interviews to see how great he was and not even F1 can diminish his success nor these so called s/ewis/LH fans can by reducing him into an arm accessory to their GOD.

As Max said, “You need a bit of luck to fight for the seventh or eight. You need a very dominant team as well to do that, so you don’t always have that luck or you are not in that era. Sometimes it doesn’t happen.”

Choices were made, things were desired and sought after in different places; so, it made one guy a 7 time winner while the other guy who is absolutely not below him talent wise even an inch, had to stay at 4. I'm pretty sure if Seb had chosen Merc in 2017, he would have been an 8 times WDC already. But as another Anon said (perhaps you are the same one?) Seb wanted it in Ferrari and it didn't happen.

I am pretty sure he wouldn't give a fuck about who he would have won those titles against and wouldn't care whether they'd leave or not and continue to race just as LH doesn't care even a bit and that's okay too.
