Lando On Sky Rn.... "i Didn't Even Expect To Be In The Championship"... The Long And Considered Pause

unfriendly reminder that this is how lando ended the last vegas gp. if you’re howling at the moon for a repeat or laughing in the f1 ig comments or putting snarky tags on posts about this then you are not only the problem with f1, you’re also a disgusting human being.

found these on threads, but i can’t find the creator 😭 anyways, these are fucking cool and these are going on my wall soon

No actually, I feel bad for Lando Norris. Because he's been having an amazing season, not only did he get his first win, more followed and he's been getting great results overall. But everyone around him, including his team it seems, is not celebrating that as the feat it is.

Everything Lando has done, has been put into the context of him taking something away from Max. Taking away a win, taking away the WDC. Lando's acomplishments are not celebrated as his own, instead the media is celebrating that Max is losing. It's weird, especially when you compare it with Charles who has had the same amount of wins this year as Lando, but is celebrated for all his accomplishments (and rightfully so)

He's immediately been built up as THE guy who in 2024 will knock Max down a peg and become the new world champion (which let's be honest here, the point gap has not been closing, this battle never really was one). Instead of celebrating the start of the part of his career where he became a serious championship contender, 2024 will now be remebered as the first time he lost out on the WDC, even though he was never in de race yet.

Lando Norris' accomplishments this year are super impresive. It is unfair that these wins are being framed as not enough and a lost title instead of the rise of a great driver.

god save the king (x3)

Lando is nominated at the Autosport awards in two categories:

•British competition driver

•Moment of the year ( for winning his first grand Prix in Miami)

I'm so emotional 😭😭😭

i can hardly believe that it's been 6 months…

AND that he already has TWO more victories after this 🤧🤧

lando norris winning the abu dhabi grand prix, his absolute masterclass from pole to finish, leading the entire 58 laps i could cry from how perfect he is and how perfect that drive was

lando norris, mclaren's golden boy, their project, the one thats been with them since their worst to their best, loyal through thick and thin has just got them their first world constructor championship in 26 years, who else to do it if not him?

from first time race winner in miami to getting his team that championship, 2024 has been all sorts of emotion for him and us as fans

to being the only driver to have the closest margin since 2021 in the wdc to challenge max, to having most poles in a single season for a mclaren driver in the teams history to being the one to bring his team to victory

this is for future world champion lando norris, next year is your year

Lando Norris being born on the day World Kindness Day is celebrated is no coincidence
