barcelonian grand prix ✩ 04.06.2023

so... i can't lie. there are a few races this season that just didn't stick around in my mind like many others, and this is the first one i unfortuntately don't have many personal memories with, except one or two. however, rewatching the race and quali highlights: this was NOT a boring race as many people say it is‼️‼️‼️ not the best race of the season by far, BUT, george russell saves the day by trying to be insane 😁😁😁💥💥 and if i dig deep enough, i will find some memories, rest assured!

this race week was the first one i watched while not being in uni 💕💕💕 i mean, i'm still enrolled, but summer break BABEY 🌞🌞🌞😁😁😁✨✨✨ which was incredibly perfect and fun!! i think i vaguely remember being quite hungover while watching this race... which LMAO of course i was. i was practically always tipsy during may-june (NOT in a toxic way in a very girl slay way actually 🍷🍷🍎🍎🌞🌞🌞👍👍👍) so that's good‼️‼️🥰🥰 i was also very very into fic-writing back then, i wrote my infamous p19 fic in this very race weekend (jeez i wonder why 😵😵😵😵💥💥💥)

qualifying was fun to rewatch, knowing max got pole LOL‼️‼️‼️‼️ what wasn't fun was that i forgot this weekend was p19 weekend. charles. 💔💔💔💔💔💔💔🙅🙅🙅🙅 THAT SHIT made me very sad, even rewatching. suffice to say at this point in the season i had been properly rbr charles coded already so i was manifesting some 2024 shit LOL (guys it can still happen shut up) 🙏🙏🙏🙏✨✨✨✨ i also forgot hulkenberg qualified p3 lmfao that was a funny surprise 😁😁😁😁😁 max slaying like usual also made me very happy to rewatch yaaay 💌💌💌 ALSO CHECO FLOPPING PLEASEEEE GOD. please look at this extra gif below my pookie emma made that shows christian and adrians reaction to this bs 😵😵😵😁😁😁😭😭😭😭

the race was also fun! mercedes had a pretty good weekend, even though both drivers seemed unhappy dfjfgdfhgd 💥💥😭😭😭 whatever... the race highlights showed max twice the whole race: at the start and him crossing the finish line LMFAO so uh pookie too good for da world 😁‼️‼️‼️ nah but it was fun... always something special to see max win barcelona of course, knowing it was his first 🥺🥺🥺🥰🥰🥰🥰 my cutiepie... and george really really put his pussy into the race lmao he was GOING for it 🔪🔪🔪 which was entertaining thank you mr russell... ALSO MAX GRAND SLAM 3!!!! AND 25 SECOND GAP!!! MY BABY!! 💕✨💘🥺💌🥰🥰🥰🌞🌞💘🥺🥺✨✨✨🥺🥺💕💕💕‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️

all in all not a race i'd go back to to watch often, but with it being one of max's amazing grand slams, and with the mercs bringing some entertainment (though i am ALWAYS entertained enough by watching max's gap grow), it's definetely one i enjoyed revisiting 🌷🌷🌷 i feel like this race also represents me getting into the flow of race weekends, if that makes sense!! the novelty had worn off, the love had (and has) not 🥰🥰🥰💕💕💕 that's how i know this is REALLY special 🥺🥺🥺

✩ song of the race: duvet - boa

fuck it, i'll put THE prosenna song here, because i haven't yet. this series is obviously focused on the 2023 season, but believe me, this fucking song and prosenna in general made me love f1 as much as max did 🥺🥺‼️‼️‼️💕💕💕
