Probably The Last Maxiel F1 Graphic/poster We'll Ever Get 😭

Daniel Ricciardo in the pitlane during Qualifying ahead of the Singapore GP | Saturday | Singapore | Rudy Carezzevoli

I'm sorry I love Charles but its fucking crazzzyyyyyyy to me that Ferrari filmed him butchering the name of a POC— that he knows and has worked alongside in some capacity for 10 years— as a funny, quirky moment. Like do you understand how many pairs of hands and eyes this had to go through to be like: yeah this isn't tone deaf and eye wateringly cringey to show a white man be told he's fucked up someone's name for 10 YEARS and then goes on to mess it up again.

I know Zhou is laughing in the clip but like what else are you supposed to do after telling someone you've raced against for 10 years that they keep fucking up your name. The whole point of the video is that this is funny? Both the setup and the punchline of the joke is not learning the name of someone you've known for 10 years

It honestly made me deeply sad.

Not on my bingo card to see you on 9gag my sweetie 😂

🌀MAX YOU WANT TO GO DIRT BIKING WITH HIM SO BAD

Daniel and Max interviews with Georgie Tunny for Network 10 Australia | Wednesday, 2024 Australian Grand Prix 🇦🇺

Listen, idc what happens with this red bull seat, all I know is arvid lindblad better get the call up before max leaves so that I can write some angst-ridden, psychological-rich fic. like-

there's just something so narratively delicious about the idea of max suddenly having daniel's younger, 'mirror image' right in front of him. looking exactly like daniel did in 2016.

only this time, the roles are reversed and max is the one who is older and more experienced. and maybe he starts to Realize a lot of things, old wounds that suddenly re-open. because yes, he wants to mentor and support arvid but at the same time, there's this nagging sense of bitterness and resentment because he's Not Daniel. not his daniel. and seeing the media constantly draw comparisons between arvid and daniel sets max's teeth on edge.

and he knows daniel wouldn't mind. it's been two years and it's clear now that he does not want to come back. that's ok, max can see that he's happy. he can see him on instagram. sometimes. and he always looks happy, with a big smile. and that's good. it's been two years, so why does this ache in his chest keep getting worse? why does he feel sick every time he sees arvid's number 3 across the nose of the car? why does he flinch every time arvid turns his head and for a moment he thinks oh, it's dan—

”They're still calling you Daniel! Just Daniel….” 🥹❤️

"Definitely the emotional control. The one thing I was impressed about was, other drivers or at least myself, when I have a bad session for example or big mistake, I kinda carry that frustration into the meeting. Daniel was, even when he had a bad race or bad qualifying big mistakes, he was very consistent and he didn't show much about the frustration from inside to the other people and being very professional. I was always watching his face in the engineering meetings like surely he showed some frustration, but actually he was always consistent and giving some jokes as well to give the engineering room bright, bright mood. So, yeah, that was impressive."
