dts s1e5&6

e5: -it feels bittersweet bc the whole shitshows with mclaren & force india feel like we're stepping in at the end of a narrative. this would've been so much more compelling if we'd had a few seasons before this one to rly set the stage before shit hits the fan -we dont get estie focused episodes a lot so its nice to see again! -back 2 my first point i truly think. if either dts started earlier or this force india drama was dragged out a bit longer, vijay rly could've been gunther steiner levels of good tv. hope the alternate universe where that happened appreciates what they have -seeing ppl who become much bigger characters years later, just like in the background is CRAZY (esp otmar and andrea stella) -makes me rly look forward to watch the full 2018 season someday bc this silverstone race looks wild -love this pre marriage/divorce estie & nando battle. if they only knew -its truly unbelievable to me that haas used to be this high in the standings. how did they fuck it all away -god otmar had to drop the oscar nando/oscar news last year AND the force india got sold news in 2018?? this guy has been delievering Ls longer than i thought

e6: -i've posted abt this before but i really do think everyone needs to be reminded that you can criticize the financial priveledge that lance stroll had in the sport without personally attacking the guy and his talent. especially compared side by side to esteban here. 'lance's dad just loves him 🥺' ok and so does estebans but only one has the power to break the game to give his son an advantage we're allowed to be critical of that -AGAIN if we could've had dts a year earlier the checo v estie coverage would've been DELICIOUS. anyway #teamestie4life -'he's gonna have a child, i don't know if he wants to die or something.' bring back esteban no holds barred. iconic. (i know estie hates how he was represented in dts but it truly doesnt make me love him less. also to a degree re: what i said abt max in dts in m last post) -both max n este talking abt continuing to cart in the rain #cinematicparallels -narratively insane that checo went from this to red bull -checo, talking about este losing his seat: it's just the lack of opportunities that this sport offers, you know? we only have 20 seats. it just happens, you know? one day, it's gonna be me. -in conclusion: really really enjoyed having a full este episode!!!!
