With men mansplaining Susie Wolff getting the job and pretending it's only because of Toto and not because of her own very successful career in motorsports as a driver, a team principal and CEO, from here on out I am going to say that Christian Horner only got his position because he got married to Ginger Spice. Thanks bye
Every Seb fan right now towards the Monaco gp:
the shot of perez stationary in the pit lane after they announced a red flag SECONDS after he pitted for wets making him drop by three places for nothing. CINEMA.
you people can say and talk shit about Checo as much as you want, we don’t care. You don't and will never understand our support for Checo.It goes beyond wanting him to win a race or a championship. We mexicans support Checo because he is all of us, he represents us in a sport that is predominantly white and where it is extremely difficult to succeed if you don't have money.
No other driver has the amount of support, because no one can embrace and cheer each other up like us here in Mexico.
Checo is like family and in the end we only want him to do well and most importantly be happy. The support and passion will always be unconditional regardless of whether he stays in Red Bull or continues racing with another team.
Siempre contigo, Checo. 💚
I have a lot of feelings about Seb, and especially a lot of feelings about how he was so trash talked, and how his accomplishments have so often been brushed off as luck (as if you could win 4 titles through luck) that he retired believing that.
How people say he got booed and laughed it off, but he then said it was hard on him week after week after week.
How Ferrari used him as a scapegoat for their shortcomings, how we saw his huge smile fade away there, and he still sung them goodbye and thanked them for letting him be a part of their team.
How he said he'd be forgotten quickly, but then lists "Don't You (Forget About Me)" as his favorite song.
How he said it was fine that he would be forgotten soon, but took the time to learn and memorize the name of every f1 champion, because he valued their memory that much.
How he texts the driver who is erasing his records to encourage him to break another one, and has the cameras record that driver saying he doesn't really think about that when he equals it.
There is so much humor and silliness and attitude with Seb's career, and there is also so much heartbreak. And it often seems that the joys come first, and the pains come later and leave their taste lingering.
So it's happy that he retired. That takes a lot of bravery too, to say "I think this is enough" when it's all you've known in life. And to focus on what ultimately matters most, which is giving back to his family and loved ones.
Give it ten more years, and I think we will still remember him, but with a clearer image of how GOOD he was.
i love the pacing of sebs instagram posts so so much, the way it went very detailed at first for the karting years with many posts for every year and then when his career picked up, so did the speed he passed the years with and now that we're at the first race it's like it very suddenly hits that this is it and we're suddenly in slow motion. Final talk with the engineer. Getting in the car. Gloves on.
It's masterfully done, if it were a film this would be the part where everything slows down, the noises all get muffled and merge into one and the only thing that's clearly audible is Seb's breathing, then a hard cut, engines on, lights out and away we go.
look i'm just saying that Checo has been racing longer and plenty of experienced drivers on the grid have said they enjoy battling with him because he always gives a fair battle so maybe he wasn’t the problem yesterday and a certain someone should learn to keep his mouth shut 👀
not to be dramatic but disliking miles morales is a red flag imo
If I had a dollar for every time Norris was bitching behind his current team mate, I'd be fucking rich, dude
The one fucking time I decide to sleep in on a Saturday and Oscar takes pole for the Sprint😭
