making an alex albon zine for therapy (fun explainer so they have context when i ref something ala "[redacted] is my racing team and i am alex albon circa 2020. does this make sense" 😭) and wondering if as the original alex apologist u had any alex facts and trivia to share?
HELPFHDKDHS it makes sense🤝
okay so in addition to here and here some extra random alex lore i have gained over the years:
he’s actually the most talented artist of our generation
his gaming username used to be xXPythonPredatorXx
he was so obsessed with michael schumacher that he used to cry when mika häkkinen won a race and would make his mum put a vhs of michael winning to stop him from sulking about it (x) and would only eat his vegetables when his mum would say michael eats his vegetables (x)
that time he compelled his favourite drivers to finish in the top five of the british grand prix at six years old (x)
his trainer patrick didn’t shave his beard until alex got a podium and now:
george quote ‘got him a good deal on a mercedes car’ within two months of him being dropped by red bull which just makes me laugh tbh
when before the first time he drove in singapore he got really concerned he was going to hugely fuck up the last corner and end up in the water
most awkward person alive probably
he uses a diffuser in his driver room (x)
he loses literally everything. like. literally. left his passport on the plane on the way to his second race with red bull. lost his physical drivers licence so had to wait around in an airport for his teammate to arrive so he could drive him around. lost his passport again but SO much worse. car keys on his first day at his new job it’s just. tragic
also just for :) purposes here are some random compilations
