just a reminder in case anyone needs to hear it: you do not need to understand every single technical aspect about f1 regardless of gender it doesn’t make you any less of a fan. if you don’t watch every single practice session or qualifying or race you are still a fan of f1. if you watch it because you think the cars look pretty or you love the gay subtext or you think some driver has great hair or whatever it is you watch f1 for you are not any less of a fan. not everything has to be so deep all of the time.

While people are complaining about F1 “tiring” the drivers out by “forcing” them to stand on stage for an hour at 8 PM EST, throw hats and say their government names, please know that there are actually real issues surrounding the Miami Grand Prix that don’t have to do with the fake marina or the inconsequential beach area lol?
Here is a good thread on the racism embedded in the Miami GP. They originally wanted to hold it along Biscayne Bay but that was immediately axed by the rich (white) citizens as it would be held on public property. Instead, it was moved to Miami Gardens without the consent of the neighborhood as it is private property and one of the organizers of the GP also owns Hard Rock Stadium. As the thread says, most of the tourism money being made from the GP will not go to the black people whose community is being upended for the weekend but rather towards richer, whiter areas like South Beach, Brickell, Downtown, etc.
POV: You realise you’re in too deep with this whole “20 cars go vroom vroom in circles” thing when you’re waking up at 4AM this weekend
why does it look like Carlos dressed him?
@McLarenF1: Ready for you, @HollyWills and @Schofe! Time for @ThisMorning.
› May 26th, 1993 in Munich, it is a little after 10:10 pm, Olympique de Marseille has just won the Champions League against the great AC Milan thanks to a goal by Basile Boli.
“It was a great moment. I was fortunate enough to win it later in my career too, but it didn’t have the same flavour,” said Didier Deschamps, who also won the Champions League in 1995-96 with Juventus. “It’s marvellous in Marseille when you win a trophy.” “It was a childhood dream to play in the European Cup,” added Basile Boli. “But to win it, that stays with you for life.”
Olympique de Marseille becomes the first French club to win a European football cup. From this victory, a non-verbal expression so dear to the people of Marseille would follow: “A jamais les premiers” (Forever the first)!
› May 26th, 2021 - 28 years have gone by and OM remains the only French club to have won the Champions League.
à jamais les premiers et les seuls - forza om! ⚪🔵
