More Karen Renford differences now vs before? I am lowkey kind of fascinated by it. Same with Peter? And do you have any headcanons about where Dex and Seb went? I loved their story so much

She stops dyeing her hair red and it's a pale, faded blond with a hint of coppery highlights to it. It starts to go a little silver at the roots.

Her wardrobe goes from strict, severe business suits to soft sweaters and loose linen pants, in soft shades of dusk, blush, sky blue. She forces Micheal to scrub the bloodstains out of the expensive fabrics.

For the first time, the boys see her barefoot. She regularly simply sits out in the garden reading under the shade of a large tree.

She will, on occasion, ask Micheal, Peter, or Marco their opinion. (She often immediately discounts Marco's opinion by replying with, "That's how I imagine a slut would feel about it.")

She is actually incredibly depressed by the loss of everything she worked so hard to achieve. Her life was filled with the possessions she surrounded herself with, and nearly all of it is now gone. Her idleness is in part a sadness she has no way to express because she has never felt it before.

Micheal is explicitly a gift for Peter to make him happy to live with her again. Although she doesn't actually tell Micheal that.

She attempts to force Peter and Micheal into an intimate relationship despite Micheal's lack of interest in men because Luke informs her of Peter's hopeless crush and she decides to fix that problem, which will of course make Peter even happier. Right?

-

Dex and Seb are both in different adjustment houses for a while. Each of them moves out of those houses and cuts contact entirely with Peter and Micheal within two years of freedom.

Karen can't find them.

They purposefully made a decision to stop talking to Peter because they knew he would turn them in if Karen ever came for him, would give up their information.

Sebastian is in Canada working as a personal chef to a wealthy elderly couple, living in guest house on the property and dating a nice woman around his own age.

Dex is elsewhere.

They keep in contact with each other.

with the dc inside joke thing, do you think there was an element of bullying (as such) going on with dc/mark maybe other drivers towards seb? not just on a commentating level but just in general. i’ve always wondered since obviously after 2010 there seemed to be a lot of snide and unkind remarks about seb and things like that

i'll start out right by saying that i take seb at face value when he said that kimi was the only one who would really talk to him when he first joined f1, which was a big deal! which i mention because i sort of think that precludes a lot of, idk, classic bullying behavior, except ofc the silent treatment, which even if that's 'normal' in f1 i can easily believe that seb felt it was rather pointed and internalized it.

i think the red bull drivers is another can of worms because they would've been observing seb get the golden child treatment for years. so i kind of have to imagine that the 'inside jokes' and snide comments and everything are partly venting frustration and/or jealousy. something else about it that puts a terrible taste in my mouth is that dc and mark etc have the luxury of crafting their comments in their first language, and delivering them to the british media who they already knew was firmly on their side from the schumi years. maybe they felt like their comments were tit for tat, especially if they were kept aware of helmut marko's comments to german-language media and counted them, or that they felt like they were doing something important by making sure seb's ego was cut down to size, but. well. i guess i'll sum up by saying that it's classic bully thinking to excuse poor behavior by acting like it's a level playing field and the key power imbalances, eh?

oh yeah and again i'll reiterate that we only know the public-facing side of it and maybe seb laughed at more of it than we know but idk. my mama taught me that kindness is free 🤷‍♀️

I think Seb is wearing the same shirt at the track today as he was at the restaurant last night.

I am willing to be wrong bc of the time difference, but like. Same shirt my man?

he sure did!!!

two options:

he has like 5 of this shirt because his wardrobe is basically a cartoon character's

he's being eco friendly! saving water! he's wearing an undershirt so it barely got dirty! right?

[scottdixon]

did you see in the article that seb was already doing the second fastest time and he never even drove a hypercar before.... we are sooooooo back

i haven't read articles too fully yet partly because the news caught me in the middle of a very Adulting week and partly because it's just been a blizzard of things but !!! you go seb!!! the old bugbear of him not being 'adaptable' goes away every time he gives anything other than an f1 car a spin and i think that's beautiful

what happened to seb having a bandage on his neck?

it’s not a bandage, just some physio tape (but it’s fun to say bandage because i like to dabble in hurt/comfort)! his complaints about it were quite vague but i take them at face value: his neck was a bit sore, then it got rather stiff in practice thanks to bumps, missed a fair bit of fp3 to be careful (this quote via racefans.net):

also surely not helped by how fast silverstone is and therefore how high the g-forces thru some of the corners like maggotts and becketts are. his car had extra padding during the race as well!
