Seeing Logan get back into motorsports and just seem so much more confident and happy and comfortable.
I know James is rebuilding Williams and he has the dream lineup. But I still find it hard to forgive him for the public mistreatment he gave to Logan, maybe that's controversial but idc that's how I see it.
I did wonder if Logan would ever get back into racing so seeing him back and happy. It's refreshing to see vs how he left F1.
Hope to see him really thrive with Ford Racing in WEC. He seems to have taken the time and it's nice to see someone giving him another opportunity.
Williams has such suspicions timing to me because theyāre now finally posting Logan in their end of season highlights on their website.. itās like they just remembered just today he was a driver for them for half a season.. Itās like they posted that today to blend in so fans wouldnāt be mad at them for finally remembering Logan because their too focused on other news currently going in f1..
Oh my God, Logan is this testing with an endurance team today!!! This is so exciting and just shows that after F1 a lot of doors do open for drivers! ļæ¼
The Alex hate lately is really starting to mirror everything that happened to Logan and that is just not okay. Like I literally just saw a comment from a fan saying that Alex seems shook and that he seems to have lost his edge, but I totally disagree with that sentiment. I do not think Alex has lost anything or that he is shook. I personally think Williams is screwing him over big time but Iāll leave that thought there for now. Itās not like he could have done much in yesterday Grand Prix, because if anyone listened to his after race interviews he said he had damage and that he initially thought he would have to DNF.
So anyone doubting him should shut the fuck up, and especially Franco fans for sending all the hate messages towards him like that is not okay to do. Also this was quite sad that this is how Alexās 100th race went considering very little people actually acknowledged it and this how he being treated by fans of his teammate.
Dedicating your tumblr to pretending that a white american man has been seriously disadvantaged in life is so loserish I'm sorryš.
And Iām sorry commenting this to me anonymously is an even bigger loser and more embarrassing behavior because it dose not take much to just scroll past a post or an account you donāt like the contents of. Another thing I hardly ever post on here but when I do it is for reasons that I think other people should see or it is meant to just add more knowledge, so once again you can just scroll if donāt like my account or contents because I post things very rarely and give my opinion which Iām entitled to do.
Ps this person is pissed off I post things related to Logan
I have been going through and rereading some past articles on Logan and this part from his 2023 GQ article shocked the hell out of me because literally this information has been right in front of our eyes on how an American within f1 would potentially be treated, and we all saw how Logan was treated within f1 by his team and the f1 media..
As a Logan fan, I have so many ways I wanna react to todayās race and personally Iām kind of angry because you can just tell Williams did everything they could to get Franco into the points and thatās something they never did for Logan like the treatment difference is so tremendous. Then you also have the fact that Logan never even got to drive the upgrades properly. Logan had one race with those upgrades and he had to play the team game and if they knew that was his last race, maybe they shouldāve let him race properly to actually see what he couldāve done. ļæ¼ Another thing that makes me super angry is that well never know how great Logan couldāve been with those proper upgrades because all season long Logan was driving an beat up old trashcan of a car held together with duct tape with no upgrades until half of the season was already over.
This might be a hot take but I get the impression that Williams might have made Logan sign an NDA because we havenāt heard a word from him after his statement on his app got deleted, and yes weāve seen him but we havenāt heard anything from him himself and I love Kyle but he is playing the middle man for all the information that we have gotten on Loganās future plans so far, like when a reporter could easily walk up to Logan in the Indy paddock and asked Logan questions but they havenāt. So I have a feeling when Williams fired Logan they made him sign an NDA until the end of the season so there pr does not take any more hits.
The turn around from last night to when Logan was trending on twitter because people were genuinely happy to see him looking so genuinely happy to be in Nashville and away from Williams.
To this morning where heās trending again but this time itās because of the f1 qualifying and people are bashing him and sending hate, but they donāt realize him and Franco were driving two very different cars this season is absolutely insane to me. Like those people must have the memories of a goldfish and to the f1tv commentators egging on the hate by comparing Franco and Logan by nitpicking facts about Loganās season they should be ashamed of themselves.
Everyone please read these post from twitter and realize that Logan was put into a crappy situation all season and made to not succeed by his team and please stop comparing him to Franco because Logan situation was awful and stop sending hate to him on all social media platforms..
i think franco did a wonderful job today !! he absolutely killed it and he should be proud of himself . i'm genuinely really glad to see that he's being treated well by williams and is getting the support a driver needs and deserves in this sport .
i also think what should be remembered is that logan didn't get to drive the same car franco is driving right now . and on top of that , jv's "support" of logan this year has been incredible fake and killed logan's confidence . he quite honestly didn't have a proper support system within that team .
franco is driving the williams car with all the upgrades , the same one alex has . logan was forced to drive a car with parts from 2023 . both the front wing and rear wing were from 2023 . a car that was overweight by 15 kilos (33 lbs) . a car that was already bad and only was made worse by the fact that it didn't have the same upgrades as alex did . a car that was absolutely impossible to drive and constantly had problems -- remember how often logan's steering wheel was messed up ??
logan's possibilities of an amazing performance were overshadowed by a car that would get upgrades only to have them promptly taken away . they were overshadowed by the fact that no one -- not even the goddamn commentators , whose JOB is to do the research that we are doing -- could properly do their research on what kind of a tractor logan was driving . everyone was under the immediate impression that logan had the same car as alex when that was the furthest thing from the truth .
and now franco is driving a car that is , indeed , finally equal to alex's car . a car that finally has all the upgrades . of course it's amazing that he's matching alex's pace and i am genuinely so happy for him for that ! but it should also be remembered that he's driving a car that is leagues better from what logan had to drive .
the way that everyone is automatically turning around to talk bad about logan and say "look !! look !! this guy is doing better than logan ever could do !! see !! logan does suck !!" is unfair to logan and shows a lack of proper research . it's truly gobsmacking to see how everyone jumps on the logan hate train and yet they refuse to do any substantial research to understand that logan was driving in a car that no driver could possibly succeed in .
i truly do hope that people realize in the future , specifically the near future , that logan was not treated properly this year . that people realize how logan was constantly given a shit hand and told to make something out of it when that was impossible considering the state the car -- and the team , i mean look at how they messed up with alex today ??? -- was in .
like don't even get me started on how williams messed up with alex today . that was just embarrassing on the team's end . absolutely insane what these drivers have to deal with .
This people donāt realize Logan never got to enjoy those upgrades and was handed a what I like to call trashcan of a car and Franco go handed a shiny new car. The cars are miles different so the people comparing them should think twice before doing so.

Pt. 1: Williams App
i donāt have to say a whole lot about the end of july. the wait is over! our second seat for 2025! carlosās video which was professional and respectful and obligatory. williams garageās video, which was appalling and shameful and disgraceful. we remember, we were there. something to recall, thoughā you guys remember how there was NO logan announcement? like NONE? we scoured social media like we were stalking our ex and there was nothing?
so we thoughā or at least, so i thought. i didnāt find the official logan departure announcement until weeks later, and iām going to have to do this off the top of my head since in the past few days itās been taken down, but i finally fucking found itā itās in the williams app. hard to find because you have to scroll through five or six videos first, all under the category:
every time i genuinely think okay, this time it really canāt get worse, we smash through rock bottom like itās a chassis in australia and hit another. even looking at this old screenshot makes my blood boil. iām not going to be very coherent so letās just break this down and phrase all the fuck-ups in a list:
- the only way to find the message is if you have the app. if you PARTICIPATE IN MORE TEAM MARKETING/PROMOTION PLATFORMS. you have to have an account, too. sainz gets eight posts on every single social the team can admin at once, including links, but loganās post is essentially an easter egg.
- loganās goodbye post isnāt its own post, itās included in the sainz category. he doesnāt even get to be an individual figure leaving the team; heās an event, heās a side effect, just a domino tipped by another much more important decision. the end of his entire future is a footnote. itās causation. itās collateral.
- his cute lil article? itās titled Thank you, Logan: His Williams Journey. itās not even titled about logan. itās williams saying āhey! look at us lovely guardian angels š see how we took this poor little bird under our wings š weāre so philanthropic and generous š read along and find out all the amazing things we did for our little buddy!ā itās promo. itās propaganda. in the midst of their announcement that heās being kicked to the curb they take the opportunity to pat themselves on the back for everything theyāve done for him. itās not enough to bury him alive, they had to dance on his grave too.
- i think thereās a good chance a robot wrote this. either that or they picked the most unoriginal journalist they could find.
thatās just humiliating. a thirteen year old on wattpad describing someoneās eyes as cerulean orbs makes a more captivating point than this.
- james consonants has one quote in the article. heās the only one whoās quoted. the rest of it is about loganās carer in junior series with williams driver academy. the last sentence is:
this is going to be more relevant in the posts ahead, when jv pops off once again. but can i also say how revolting it is that the message comes from james? when logan gets dropped early the wording gets a little different, but in the initial announcement (if you can even call it that) itās all about james. what james has to say to logan specifically. williamsā whole thing is that theyāre a family team, birds of a feather that stick together, they have each otherās backs and love and friendship and lalala all that bullshit. one would THINK it would be in their best interest to remember who they are. but nope. instead we get james making a point to single himself out so that he alone gets to show off how kind and forgiving and gracious he is to logan and the lack of a team statement gives the implication that the rest of the team didnāt even care. didnāt even notice. of course that isnāt whatās directly communicated but how sloppy and careless can you get with the wording that that message can even be interpreted IN THE FIRST PLACE?
all in all, williams is telling the world:
logan is not even worth effort. itās not enough that theyāre going to abandon his strategy, give him the shittier car, ice him out in his own team, not give his car any upgrades until over halfway through the seasonā¦ theyāre going to make sure we know that he isnāt even worth good writing. the lack of respect and decency and acknowledging someone as a human being with a sentient presence in the world is so severe that even on the fucking internet, where all they literally have to do so much pr and image management, they donāt have the words.
williams is making sure we all know: logan is so worthless heās not worth taking the time to say that heās worthless. they talk about underperformance, and this is the way they treat their team members. their fucking drivers. the faces of the brand.
itās almost comical. itās unbelievable. if someone was writing this in a story and i was proofreading, iād tell them to tone it down, because at this point the antagonist is becoming too villainous to be believable; theyāre a caricature, a parody.
but no. this is actually happening.
