Them flirting about karting times in the post quali press
"like in karting"
馃槶 STOP! They're killing me. The freakin' FONDNESS. And the best part? Little Max and little Charles could have never IMAGINED this moment. Look how far they've come. 馃ス
馃帴: post-qualifying press conference, 2023 Mexico City Grand Prix
There's a video I'm not sure exists, I think I may have hallucinated it? It's something about "in the late 90s and early 2000s formula 1 started to lose its [something]" and then the funniest video I've ever watched with gems like kimi saying with absolutely no expression in his voice "Michael Schumacher, you're going down" and michael retaliating with "you're gonna have to change not just your strategy. You're gonna have to change your underwear" and a narration of an f1 race that was "welcome back sleepyhead, the cars are still going round and round"
And I just can't find it. I can't find this masterpiece for the past two weeks and I need it back in my life.
Anyone else remembers this video and know where I can find it?
As a Ferrari fan, I should be used to some level of disappointment by now, but unfortunately I'm naive and delulu so yes, I was still hoping for a win today :))
I'm a bit disappointed that it's another Max win. I mean he's doing amazing and I'm very impressed, but it does get quite boring watching him get P1 by turn 1 and then just staying there.
And yes, I'm a delulu Charles fan that really thought he would have been on the top step again :(( He had a really good race overall and I'm very proud of everything Ferrari has achieved in this race. A bit disappointed in the fans for booing him because there was nothing he could have done to prevent Checo hitting him, but I understand the disappointment. It was amazing to see him back on the podium, where he (and Sainz) deserve to be, so I'm very happy for that!
For Checo then, I'm so sad because he really deserved a good result at his home race. Especially after all the rumors. It sucks that he had to be a bit greedy and try and overtake so soon, because if he had waited, he would have easily overtaken Charles. His car is better, if only he had judged his attack better and not sandwiched Leclerc.
Lastly I'm so proud of Lando, what a drive was that! Wow! I've always been a Lando fan (ever since I started watching races with my ex) and this just shows again that he is champion material. It wasn't the best qualifying, but damn, did he make up for it, incredibly impressive!
So yeah, an exciting race, I've annoyed my sister immensely by talking about it afterwards. She's very disappointed in me that I've become a sports fan and 'watching Mario Kart live' as she called it, but my heart was racing the whole time. Mainly because I was still hoping for a Leclerc win, or even a double Ferrari podium, or even a red-papaya podium... But we got a 1644 podium, so I'm very happy with that as well!
Also honorary mention for the Honey Badger, because wow! Danny Ric supremacy for real! Have you seen what he's done in an Alpha Tauri???? Just put him back in a red bull seat please
The real losers in this situation (other than sharl) are the poor fans who paid alot of money to go see and support their hometown hero, only for him to bin it on turn one.
