nico rosberg being there to quite literally watch the chinese gp burn down into flames is quite fitting actually
I still can’t get over the fact that Lewis included George in a post for all the people that had his back and supported him over the years. In a post with his family (his dad and his mum), with the Mercedes team, with the fans. People that love him endlessly and support him unwaveringly. The caption being “Means so much.” No one can bluff that George isn’t even a good teammate. Not when Lewis himself has added George in a post like that. He didn’t have to but he chose to because he has seen, he has felt George’s support over the years and he is acknowledging it. George who has always talked about how great of a teammate Lewis is and how Lewis will get up after a bad result. George who was the first one to congratulate Lewis after his win despite the dnf of his own race. The implications of George being one of the people that kept him going over the past two years. Lewis is appreciating George’s support as much as he is of his family, his team, his fans.
George has always been a fan of Lewis and he has never been afraid to show that. He has always been outspoken about watching Lewis race growing up.
Do you think about how young George doesn’t know that one day his support is gonna be seen and appreciated by his idol. How many people get that opportunity? Not that George would only support Lewis so it can be seen. But it must have been nice to have it acknowledged, nonetheless.
YOUR FRONT ROW LOCK OUT EVERYONE

for narrative purposes i think the funniest possible thing that could happen is adrian newey going to ferrari and the car just absolutely flopping. you get a ferrari-newey-hamilton lineup and they are just. so slow. snail pace car. fighting for their lives in the middle of the grid. i actually think italy would explode
You’re laughing, George Russell just stepped on stage in front of cameras and said “I don’t care who my teammate after Lewis is because nobody compares to him” and you’re laughing

rubens barrichello went to a brazilian podcast recently and revealed two funny tid bits about classic f1:
- he used to bring a fart noise machine and put it under othe driver's chairs during drivers' briefings. sebastian vettel thought it was so hilarious he used to sit beside rubens during the meetings to observe the target confused by the noises, and often said target would be none other than michael schumacher. the machine had 6 different type of fart noises and he used most of them on michael until schumi discovered it and just looked at him with a disappointed "what a child" look.
- rubens also said that gerhard berger used to tell him about the prank war he had with ayrton senna. one day he bought 20 frogs for $100 and put them all in ayrton senna's hotel room.
