fave current drivers: OP81, AA23 & YT22!!! i like some others and i am completely indifferent to most.

i do not support any team, i'm actually an active team hater, but i am however tied to mclaren, williams and mercedes.

fave retired drivers: well, follow this blog and see. haha!

my tagging system is all over the place, however i do basic tagging! also you can ask me to tag something specific. main categories are:

grands prix e.g. #belgian gp 2009 or sometimes #monaco 2024;

drivers and team members (full names like "jenson button" or "peter bonnington");

teams (this one is tricky because sometimes i'd tag just "williams", but sometimes it's "williams racing", but it is what it is);

ship names (like "sewis", "lestappen", etc; i might not actually ship it, but i will tag it, you know)

i also tag other motorsport categories: F1 Academy/f1a, F2, WEC, etc. but i don't post/reblog about those much in general.

i tag #art, other people's #graphics and #fics;

and i tag random personal rambling and oversharings as #talks and asks as #inbox + there is a thousand of other little misc. tags that i use.

i live-blog during races, but not a lot; those go under #cars lb; and i occasionally watch old races; those go under #old cars lb;

TOP-5 WAGs + the 2025 grid sorted. i guess.

wait wait…….you know how actor aus used to be a thing, I think mostly in older fandoms maybe……..

and I mean we got both valentino and sete referred to as actors, sete specifically is dubbed as a ‘bad actor’ (in reference to jerez’05) and his nickname is literally ‘hollywood’. 2004 season gets compared to movie script and so on.

so, what if – walk with me here please – we run with all this and turn it into the actor au.

the movie they are filming ofc is about motorcycle racing and the plot vaguely resembles 2003-05 seasons, characters have a resemblance to sete & vale but hmmm not really, because sete & vale are the actors in this. but they do see some of themselves in them, thats crucial thst they do. they of course have a history and are friends. valentino is a star and is a critically acclaimed actor, who started acting as a child. sete is a late 30-something rich nepo baby, who got into film acting in his mid 20s, he is theater trained but has not enjoyed much success or critical acclaim. most of his projects end up being flops and he never really gets cast as the lead…….

the whole reason for this actor au should be imo using it as an opportunity to go full meta with the narrative. like why is the script written this way, wgat are the character’s motivations and thought process. why do they do x as opposed to y. why does the movie end this way and not the other? and so on. like it cant be just be played as ‘ohhh they are actors this is the entire au’ no.

anyhow, sete & vale maybe had starred in some other movie together years ago but sete only had a minor role in it and they never shared the screen directly. vale’s role migjt be even written with him in mind, while sete had to go thru casting and was not even the first or second person considered for this role. but he ends up being perfect for it. him and vale? they have great chemistry and are able to uncover a new emotionality in each others performances. as I’ve mentioned they both feel connection to the characters, who of course are also friends with similar disparity wrt career success……like you knkw where this is going lol. basically the plot of the movie in some way weirdly ends up paralleling their own relationship. maybe the production is a bit of a mess so the ending is not yet written? and that ofc maybe becomes ths source of conflict. or the ending (aka the fallout is always where all this was going) but the conflict is about the studio and execs not liking the initial cut? idk idk

[literally have no idea what exactly the conflict here should be about but this is why I’m not a writer i just have vague ideas and thats it. we need to figure out the role of director/screenwriter here and what tgey are meant to represent tho. thats very important]

anyways, the movie ends up being re-cut ofc, sete’s screen time is pretty drastically reduced so much so that valentino is the sole protagonist now. the press junket is awfulll because the two main actors are not speaking to each over but drammaaaa! sells well, so it only helps the buzz around the film. despite being recut and ‘dumbed down’ it still does well and receives critical acclaim in particular for valentino’s performance. meanwhile, due to behind the scenes drama which sete ends up being mostly blamed for, plus his role being cut down……what was supposed to be his break out role turns into the high point of his career. after which it all goes downhill.

anyways, years later the original director’s cut gets released, which features sete’s original role intact and it gets a limited reappraisal and a small cult following.

the end

i have thoughts (sorry if this sounds out of context because it is!)

the film is about a "fictional" motogp champion and it follows his entire life so several people play The Champion – from the childhood to adolescence to the peak of his career to the retired old man. Sete is cast to play the champion at the peak of his career. there are rumors that it happened because he is a nepobaby from the motorcycling business AND it's partially true, but it's also because he Looks the part and has a background as a rider (used to compete in 125cc or something like that. he wasnt very good by any meams but the director (IM STILL KEEN ON ALMODÓVAR, SUE ME) likes that it's like.. authentic. like it's cool that the guy actually knows wheel). and of course the fictional champion is spanish.

initially my idea was that Sete and Vale play each other – Sete is trying to be Valentino Rossi (fails, not good enough) and Vale is trying to be Sete Gibernau (also fails, too good).

enter stage left: valerossi – the antagonist, the rival, the shadow that follows The Champion but never quite catches him. he's a pretty famous actor even outside of Italy, and like of course the champion's rival cant also be spanish, so he is italian. he also has a background in the sport – perhaps Sete quit the sport because he just wasnt good enough and Vale quit the sport because of an injury/financial situation. like he was Good-Good and couldve made it (one of the reasons Sete would be uncomfortable on the set. he is supposed to play this spectacular champion, but he is too aware of the fact that his co-star is... just better)

maybe Sete was cast as the lead/protagonist and they had to do like "chemistry" tests with the potential co-stars (a fun way to add Max... or perhaps.. Barros...we love Barros..) but like it didnt really click with them, but then there is Vale who is like so good and it clicks and everyone is like "yeah, cool, we are making a movie!"

but Vale is a seriously unserious professional, and i think he would be an annoying Method Actor, so they do a bit of training together – riding bikes etc before the shooting starts and they become sort of friends. like Sete genuinely likes hanging out with Vale and they are both passionate about the bikes fr. and perhaps they get a bit too close to each other – maybe they had a couple of drunk handjobs in the bathroom stalls of clubs, who's to say!? but when the shooting of the film starts Vale is like. so in character at all times it's unsettling + he is better at everything which kind of destroys Sete's self esteem. and the fact that Sete keeps going back to the drunk handjobs doesnt help AT ALL.

so eventually it kind of goes off the rails and the film is cancelled and the script goes on to the shelf to collect dust. Sete's career kind of goes nowhere because from the outside it looks like he's just ungrateful and too thin-skinned to be serious about Making Art, and Valentino hops on to another project that gets him like. a best actor award at cannes or something.

a few years later Sete comes back to the script and of course to whatever has happened to him and realises that maybe he really was too thin-skinned and that the drunk handjobs were actually kind of a part of valerossi's method acting and that if they were real motogp championship contenders he wouldnt stand a chance.

AS FOR THE FORM: i think it'd be FUN to make this fic like. pieces of news articles, magazine headlines, gossip forums (it's like early 00's, there's no twitter yet, but people on the internet ARE TALKING), interviews, etc. something like that. it can be made PURELY as an outsider's POV via mentioned newspapers and magazines and interviews (plus of course the script and maybe even texts and emails could be included. letters even. that's romantic), but it also could be All Of That + just the usual 3rd person limited! anyway. that's all i have to say for now.
