As someone who has supported him since his junior days, I hope that race win is coming soon! Like idk it's even hard to celebrate his accomplishments now because every comment section turns into a bunch of hatred.
Cant celebrate the 2023 season where he earned the most points of his F1 career because every post is full of hateful comments about no wins, the new nick heidfeld, etc.
Cant celebrate the Lorenzo Bandini trophy he's getting this Sunday because people are talking about how much more accomplished Max, Lewis, and Charles were when they won it and how "nowins" doesn't deserve it.
Like idk it's exhausting as a fan to constantly have to read/see all this toxic bullshit when I'm just trying to stay in my lane, leave other drivers/fans alone, and support. I can't imagine how he feels seeing all of this shit EVERYWHERE regardless if it's celebrating the positives of the season or a post discussing the negatives.
it is exhausting! and so goddamn wrong, too! i just, generally, can't imagine ever going to any comment section ever and posting hate. let alone where, in this case, lando can see. but yeah. most we can do is just keep on supporting him, being a positive energy to him and hope that he knows that through all the hatred he receives, there are more fans out there who want him to do well and understand it if he doesn't do well. his race win will come soon, he just hasn't had the easiest journey towards it.
