the law of equivalent exchange is the max thesis. you can't have imola turn one, suzuka pole, the entirety of brazil or even austin without hungary and mexico and spain. something cannot be made from nothing. it's two sides of the same coin. the same thing eating him up inside. the same choking grip of perfectionism pushing him above and beyond and occasionally over the edge
love to see kimi go from "what oscar did was ILLEGAL and he needs to be sent to JAIL" to "I have learned about being smart and just aggressive enough" in the span of three hours im so proud they grow up so fast
Can you remember how long you had to wait after receiving the news, signing the contract and being able to tell people?
fp3, GP Monaco, 2025
GP: "And Sainz now at 2.5."
Max: "Mate, please tell me that a bit sooner, you know. In this section 2 seconds is nothing."
GP: "Lawson 15 seconds."
Kimi Antonelli getting his first pole and breaking the youngest pole sitter record by 2 years and then GETTING THE HELMET STUCK ON HIS HEAD AS DRIVERS COME YO CONGRATULATE HIM AND HE ASKS THE PIRELLI GUY FOR HELP ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜
oscar: there will, of course, be a huge party in my honor. I will, of course, not be attending it.
"I knew Kimi coming up through the go karting ranks people already saying great things, so I was keeping an eye on it. I think what is impressive; naturally quick, what I like he's level headed, calm."
"I think those are great qualities to have, and I was never in doubt that podium would come this year. He had a few unlucky races, one of them in the sprint was also my fault with the pit stop but it was just a matter of time and I am very happy that the podium happened for him. Gives you more confidence, a nice boost."
"It will only get better. So many things will come at you in your rookie season, you'll learn from the weaker and good races.."
"In the coming years, we will see a lot more from Kimi."
Max: Ah my shifts feel like Monaco Grand Prix 1972
GP: Understood, Max.
