If you read one thing today, let it be this article written by Valtteri.

He talks about his career but also, candidly discusses his eating disorder. Some people might not know about it since I feel he doesn't get the same amount of attention as other drivers, but he's touched on it in the past - and has been shot down by people like DC, trying to minimise it - but I think this is the first time I'm seeing him be so open in such a way. The photo accompanying that section is sobering. In a sport where unsavoury things are glossed over, it's extremely brave for him to talk about it so frankly.

He also talks about mental health, touches on obsession, his rivalry with Lewis, and depression. He ends with where he's at today, which we all can see is a much happier and healthier Valtteri, and I'm so glad that he is.

Some of my unfinished/unposted, carcar fic…

Carlos and the accidental cat acquisition

“Mate! I didn’t know you got a cat!” Lando exclaims one afternoon as he proceeds to rub his fingers between El Gato’s ears and then under his chin.

“Hmm? No. That is just El Gato.” Carlos waves his hand as if it is a sufficient explanation, ignoring Lando when he splutters into a giggle.

“El Gato?” Lando repeats awkwardly, “Cat?”

“Sí, is a Cat, No?” Carlos watches as the cat stretches and then extends upwards, letting his front paws rest on Lando’s legs, as if he’s asking to be picked up.

“Yeah—course it’s a cat, but that’s not a proper name.” El Gato is now allowing Lando to lift him up and Lando catches a small silver tag between his fingers. “Mr Papaya!” Lando practically screeches in excitement, “It’s perfect! Of course you are Mr Papaya!”

Carlos scoffs. El Gato is a much better name than Mr Papaya.
