- So much more than just a race - @f1-dramatime - Tumblr Blog

look the reality is that stan culture is unhealthy. period.

and i’m not talking about being a fan of someone and wanting to go see them on tour. im not talking about being happy when they drop something new or reach a cool milestone. im not talking about writing fanfiction and using them as a face character. im not talking about making edits/gifs of them, or anything like that.

im talking about dedicating your life to this person. seeing them as some sort of deity who can do no wrong. monitoring their every move and always being ready with a comment/opinion/statement. feeling like you owe them something and that you alone are the key that will make or break their career. feeling like you need to defend them no matter what. attacking strangers just because they may not necessarily agree. creating drama day after day to the point where your online presence is just a steady stream of negativity with no end in sight.

the internet has desensitized us to stan culture, but that doesn’t mean that it’s not wrong. it’s dangerous and gross and at this point, im afraid that most people are too far gone to recognise just how much of a horrible impact it’s made on our lives.

I mean, this pretty much sums it up. Redbull does not give wings. They cut them off.

Hating on a driver you 'obviously hate' for whatever reason doesn't make you any better than the driver you 'hate'. It sets you on the same level as you think of them. The amount of tumblrs I had to block because of this, is shockingly quite a lot.. So focus on the one you like and we all can go through the Tumblr f1 tag happily.

And don't forget, we don't know these drivers personally. We see them infront of camera's and what they let us show on social media. After all that, we don't know anything about them.

Save yourself from the rage you're feeling by posting kind stuff about the things and people you like and feel good and have everyone feeling good. It's a win win for us all.

Thank you.

Good morning to seven time world champion Lewis Hamilton and all the records he broke this season, race winner Sergio Perez, Kevin Magnussen in his last race for Haas, Alex Albon’s two podiums, pole sitter Lance Stroll and his two podiums, race winner Pierre Gasly, Lando Norris on the podium, Romain Grosjean who didn’t get to finish his season like he hoped to but he’s alive like the absolute hero he is, Daniel Ricciardo’s two podiums, Esteban Ocon on the podium, Carlos Sainz jr on the podium, Sebastian Vettel’s final race in Ferrari and his podium in Turkey, George Russell who got the chance to prove himself in a Mercedes, Nico Hülkenberg, Pietro Fittipaldi and Jack Aitken all for getting to race this year, Nicholas Latifi’s rookie season, Charles Leclerc’s two podiums, Fernando Alonso’s return, Mick Schumacher getting an F1 seat, Valtteri Bottas who was on the podium more often than not, pole sitter and race winner Max Verstappen, Antonio Giovinazzi who outqualified his teammate, Daniil Kvyat’s ability to put in a fast lap when it matters, Kimi Raikkönen’s start in Turkey, the Bahrain dog, the Turkey dog, the Imola cat, all the new tracks we got to see this year when it looked like we wouldn’t get any races and most importantly to the rain in Hungary, I’m still waiting! And, nearly forgot, of course to you, I hope you have a great rest of the year! ❤️

I don't know if someone already did it but for anyone being curious about the song Seb was singing I'm gonna leave a rough translation. It's a famous Italian song titled "Azzurro", lyrics by Sebastian Vettel:

You are the red team, passionate, you never give up

My stop has come, I liked being with you

I felt your magic, an extraordinary feeling

Guys thank you for having me, I'm gonna miss you

A farewell to you all in Maranello, you deserve to be mentioned here

And now I'll say goodbye I wish you the best

I wish you to be happy but most of all to be healthy
