Obsessed With Daniel Leaning Into Hugs

I DIE

re: maxiel soulmates— max said in the f1 ‘drivers explain their race number’ vid that his favorite number is 3 and he always used to pick it when racing. he wanted to race with 3 in f1 too, but ofc daniel had it already, so he just decided to make it 33 for double luck. very soulmates coded:)

THEY. LITERALLY. ARE. SO. SOULMATES CODED.

like you can't make this shit up 😭

Daniel: It all started at my very first go-kart race. We couldn’t choose numbers at the time. It was just whatever number they pulled out of a hat and that was ours and it was number 3. And at the time our house number was 3 so I was like, “Oh this is awesome. Cool!” I was following NASCAR and Dale Earnhardt was number 3…...and then we could choose our number in Formula 1 back in 2014, that was obviously my first choice and I got it…Pretty proud to be number 3 actually.

Max: Well my favorite number is 3. I used to always stick a number 3 on everything I was driving or riding but of course, when I got to Formula 1, Daniel already had number 3 so I was like, "Well let's add another 3 and hopefully that adds double luck."

something something soulmates au something something each other's good luck charm

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—

Sooo this is the longer version. Max was in the middle of interview and got distracted by Daniel. Thank you Red Bull Racing, well done Baku!
