just this for you

OH MY GOD 😭😭 lando with kids makes me FERAL

idk how true this is or accurate it is, but ive noticed that most of the times, its ex drivers praising lando, and the media criticising lando, and at the same time, its also ex drivers (sometimes?) criticising max, and the media praising max.

idk, its just an observation, im still new to the sport, so idk how much of it is true

a lot of ex drivers praise lando, especially who i like to call the biggest landorina, jenson button. every time he's the one doing the race cover, he's praising lando and defending lando. there's also nico rosberg, emerson fittipaldi, sir jackie stewart... but yeah, he's always getting thrashed by the media.

as for max, he has past drivers backing him up... like his (asshole) father in law, nelson piquet, known racist and homophobe! but also sebastian vettel, i think. you don't even need to look at past drivers to see who criticizes him. the fucking goat lewis hamilton is always pointing out max and his fuckups and that's incredible to moi

and the media is always riding max's dick and acting like he's the best they've ever seen. don't get me wrong, he has talent, he's fucking incredible. but his actions are less than sportsmanslike. either way, your statement is, almost all the time, true.

everyone can't do maths 😭

Lando - 374 out of 666 is 56%

Oscar got 44% of the points

but it's beyond that, because as you said it's not all about points, it's about who constantly thought about the team

every interview with Lando it was "the team" and with Oscar it was "i" - best example being Monza

Baku, if Lando hadn't been so quick to say "yep how long do you want Checo held up for" the high likelihood was Oscar wouldn't have won

today, Oscar got unlucky with max but then made mistakes, it literally hinged on Lando not losing the win to stop Ferrari outscoring them, because that would've happened if Ferrari got a 1-3? that's 40 points over Lando's 18, that's the 22 they needed to overtake

Lando p2 fastest lap? Ferrari would win on count back because they'd have won the race

Lando secured the WCC end of

THANK YOU LOVELY ANON!!! THANK YOU

im ngl, the interview with the race is kinda rubbing me the wrong way... not the things that lando said, i thought it was really mature, but the little part that the journalist wrote just seems very... mean? critical? negative?

i was gonna do this off anon but i panicked and now im doing this as an anon.

yeah, that's true. the journalist seemed to be attracting attention to the bad things and not the good ones.

but still, that interview was very important for lando and us, his fans. and i hope it'll be enough to at least quell the haters for a while.

Hating an unproblematic guy like Oscar is hilarious to me, and this is coming from a Lando fan. You are mad at Oscar for trying to race Lando? When it's basically his job? When Lando does the exact same thing? And don't even try with the Hungary bullshit, both Lando and Oscar deserved the win equally, infact I go as far as to say he should have not given the place back ONLY because he was faster, that was entirely on the team for their shit stratgies and thinking process. Do you think Oscar was happy with that win? It is what it is, he had no say in it yet you will shit on him blindly, he even said he wouldn't have minded and would have understood if Lando didn't give him the place because he is a driver too, Lando only did because the team were literally blackmailing him on radio. and then I'm guessing you cry about Monza, again, he is a driver, he is allowed to race, it was still early on in the season, there were no team orders (which by the way are established to benefit Lando) because they still were not sure if Lando had a chance for the championship. Even if he does right now (which is unlikely) winning a champion by getting gifted positions is not the way and even Lando understands that, you have to earn that win, and your biggest rival is your own teammate. Oscar is Lando's first teammate that's actually challenging, and when Lando's getting challenged you hate on the person who challenges him, a max and Charles hater too? So obvious. This is racing, no one has it easy. Fans like you are the reason Lando gets the hate he does, you give him a bad name. Grow up.

wow you have a lot of free time to be leaving such an essay on my inbox! i'm not even going to acknowledge your words because at this point you don't deserve it.

Wtf is wrong with people!! I don't like all the F1 drivers but would I go onto their social media and post death threats no. If anyone crashes it is not nice to see no matter if it is your favourite driver or the least

some people think the internet is a land without restrictions. it's the power that being behind a screen gives them, aside from giving them a sense of invincibility.

it's just being a bad person, at this point. they know it's wrong. they don't care. but if you put lando or any other driver in front of those people, they won't be saying it.

it's just being a dick.

🐑 alternative universe - superpower au, villain x hero, slow burn, hopeful ending

(any pairing you want 😻)

Lando never bothered with villains that committed petty crimes, since, well, napping around in cat form was way more fun.

Until a villain came around and controlled his mind enough to snap him out of his chosen form for the day.

Franco had fun terrorizing the heroes, especially the filthy rich ones — “I’m defeating capitalism, mate” —, but one of them was so fun to play with, and Franco was always turning him into a different animal with his mind control.

Fate ended up taking care of them, putting them together in the weirdest situations where they had to help one another. Multiple times.

And Franco just couldn't stop flirting with Lando.

or...

The one where Lando is a shapeshifter, Franco can control minds. Franco’s favorite subject to control is Lando, always pulling him out of his animal form. They have to save each other. With a side of Franco being, well, Franco.
