Hi hello i am also lwk obsessed with them and i will try my best!! You can take a look at this thread https://x.com/ameriaeberando/status/2033605602493214882
Since the wee age of 11 Kimi already said he wants to challenge Max, there is a video of him getting photograph from max and this picture of them. Before Kimi officially enters F1 they already talked and sim race together. Already Kimi have only good thing to say about Max "very nice, funny, easy, likable". Max also like Kimi "i see myself in him" "he is a beautiful person". They have been close from the start of the 2025 season until now, you can see pretty much all videos and photos in the thread above. Some lore:
Kimi crashed into Max during the Austrian GP 2025 and apologized multiple times and Max is also understanding, and he talked to Kimi when he got bullied (something along the line of "just igrone brainless people")
Kimi includes Max in a lot of thing he's asked about (stucked in an island, go party, have dinner etc)
Max blowing a kiss at Kimi and Kimi making heart gesture back
Kimi wants to do GT3 racing with Max
Literally every podium they share together
Max follows Kimi and Kimi liking a bunch of Max-related posts (notably that one "POV Max jumps into your arms after Japanese GP")
A fan asked Kimi to give Max a lion plushie but he kept it and even posted it on Insta??
Kimi said they talk about a lot from racing to private life stuff, it's very to talk to Max
The recent pasta date invitation
Basically they have a good relationship and common interest in racing, Kimi looks up to Max while Max aknowledge Kimi's ability and is always ready to give advice. The thread doesn't includes some recent GPs, just know that vertonelli stick together all the time, always talking, touching and waving to each other after races. Like every race weekend there are photo/video of them talking together if not even more. If you need to find Max just look for where Kimi is lol......
Now if we look at them in a not so serious shippy lens..... this is peak age gap yaoi idk why people sleep on vertonelli so much. People tend to see them as like "good bromance" "father and son" lies and slanders Kimi wants to HIT that man. They have some real sus videos/photos (leaning way too close to each other while talking, that one picture where Kimi is reaching to touch Max's hand, Kimi keeping his hand on Max's waist every given opportunities nad the video where it look kind of like he's turning Max's body around by grabbing his vest under the dim light?????? what the fuck is that) well I just think vertonelli is really great
