the mexican gp is not real
perhaps it's because i'm also a football fan, and i'm so used to brushing off vitriol that's ever thriving because that's just the sport, but most of lando's haters are so fucking soft, it hurts to see.
you claim you want 'cunty f1' back, yet you constantly berate lando for being 'whiny' when things don't go his way. charles does the same thing, but because it's charles and he's more 'champion material' or whatever the fuck you guys say, you'll deem it as him being determined and wanting to push himself to the top.
lando doesn't say a thing, you'll claim he's not 'worthy of winning the championship because he's not competitive enough' and 'doesn't care'.
you call lando racist, and granted, what he said in miami was not favourable in the slightest, and i'll 100% hold him accountable for that, but let's not forget the fact that he's mentioned he doesn't like trump before in one of his streams, and how he took part in the blm demonstration (whether just for pr or not, i'll still take my liberties and allow this one to count as it was a public display). or how he's never displayed some sort of alliance with trump's convictions before trump was (out of lando's control) invited to miami.
you absolutely cannot sit there and be a max fan, but beneath the table shoot lando in the foot when max is heavily involved with a notoriously racist's daughter. and let's not even forget max being completely flippant and dismissive when asked about piquet calling lewis a racial slur.
at the end of the day, lando is only human, i will admit he has said things that don't put him in the greatest of lights, but we're all acting as if people haven't said worse. i could compare him to seb and say that vettel literally roamed the grid being public enemy number one for a long time, but people will say that they're not on the same level to be compared. and i agree, however we have to give lando the chance to get there and not criticize his journey in doing so.
let lando make mistakes, let him fumble, let him be whiny and bratty on the track, but let's remember he is second in the championship standings. yes, he's most likely not winning it, but it's honourable enough for someone who just won his first race this year.
we're so used to seeing people have such a confident, upfront attitude with the championship that when someone who isn't as self assured is 'contending', they're deemed as unworthy, no matter how hard they try. you can't expect someone to be perfect without giving them the room to become perfect.
There are no words to adequately describe how obsessed with this I am 😭

something something about brocedes and lando because
the way lewis cheering for lando when he did well, nico praising lando if he did well. but also lando trying to act like he wasn't lewis' fan (and still is). also that lando followed back nico just a couple of months ago? and nico confronting zak with all this papaya rules shit. and lewis reposting all lando's pics when it wasn't even a win, just a podium. and defending him infront of the media about that cool down room. and nico breaking that "curse". he said that lando will win soon, and lando won miami when it seemed hopeless.
THEY'RE GONNA USE FP1 RESULTS IF QUALI DOESN'T HAPPEN??? THAT MEANS RED BULL ARE DEAD LAST💀
THIS.
Exactly thiss. Why are people acting like McLaren will let lando walk all over piastri? If you know McLaren then you know damn well what kind of team they are and their ethos. Some of u piss me off so fucking bad. If lando wins the wdc IT IS FULLY DESERVED. "He would be the worst champion" "got handed it on silver platter" NO, do you understand how big +60 pts difference is? If he wins the wdc, it will be because he did his best to win it.
