Charles always sees him in dreams. The scenario is always random, but what is constant is this: Max Verstappen is there, as a background character or perhaps a villain, or whatever else he could be, and it is lucid — always too aware of the lack of reality in this world weaved by the cortex of his brain — and whatever happens, it is then long buried in the depths of his subconscious by the time it ends, with only a vague shadow he can’t chase haunting him afterwards. Either way, even if he remembers, nothing much really happens, usually.
it looks like prost has a ribbon on his head… a true pookie babygirl augh
learning about the prost-senna rivalry is ultimately realising most of it was senna being kind of crazy versus prost trying (and often failing) to keep things as normal as possible. Because the thing is I’ve always believed in order to be a top athlete you have to be somewhat obsessed and for Prost he was, for the most part, the regular amount of that. whereas Senna very famously Exceeded the usual level of being consumed by his sport.
this is exactly it— senna who had prost’ pics up his childhood bedroom walls, stubbornly Refusing prost’s advances at a friendship (re: prost who was just trying to hang out with senna at his house but senna just ignoring him and napping the whole time) and overall emitting a whole I Must Hate Your Whole Being So I Can Take Racing Seriously TM energy, only to lose himself and went crying sobbing throwing up when prost retired because it just didn’t feel the same anymore, because beating prost was his ultimate goal; and on the other hand prost who also did try to keep things civil but the rivalry got so intense prost would rather retire than be teammates with senna again, going so far to include that specific clause in his williams contract, and eventually retiring because williams wanted senna. god
Who let the grandpas out?
photos taken moments before disaster etc etc
I look back on those days now and think to myself, ❛Why did we put ourselves through all that? Why did it have to get so venomous?❜ If we had to do it all again, I'd say to Ayrton, ❝Listen, we're the best. Between us, we can screw all the others!❞
Still, though, it was a fantastic story, wasn't it?
so ur telling me that ayrton senna in the early 80s put photos of alain prost up in his childhood bedroom in brazil and these photos stayed there for over a decade, despite the Intense rivalry that developed between them later, and then it was only after senna’s death, after the funeral, that prost was invited to the family home and stood in senna’s old bedroom and saw these photos of himself on the wall? and i am supposed to just go about as normal with the knowledge of this?
anyone else randomly think of that time senna punched a glass off a table or is it just me? LIKE?!:?/!?:!/

When you run out of gas and get picked up by someone that then runs out of gas themself, then get picked up by someone else and THEY run out of gas, and finally the three of you get picked up by yet another car. Except it's Formula 1.

I’m so sorry, but I’m sick of people saying Prost was more boring or bland than Senna. My man straight-up called the Ferrari—yes, FERRARI—a tractor no one could make work, dragged Maranello through the mud during a crisis, got himself fired before the last races, and then decided to treat it as an early vacation;)
congrats so liam i suppose
photos from the 1988 season :)) i’d never seen these before i found them yesterday, thought i’d share
"In France, at Le Castellet, Prost returned to pole for the first time in two years. "Both Senna and Prost were extremely confident in their means," says Jo Ramirez. "And prone to psychological tricks. I remember that time at Paul Ricard, Prost does his qualifying lap immediately proving to be the fastest on the track. He comes back to the pits and puts on his jeans and T-shirt. I yell at him, "What the hell are you doing, you still have three more sets of tires!" His response? "If Ayrton does a better time than me, well, then he deserves the pole. That's the best I can do."
Imagine at that point how much competitive anger Ayrton had inside. What a desire to prove his greater speed...". Which, however, he failed to do that day."
"In the black book of the great duel between Senna and Prost, September 25, 1988 is one of those days underlined in red. It is the first crack in the wall of what had never really become a true friendship. In qualifying Prost surprises his partner with a perfect lap. So perfect that after setting the stopwatches at 1'17"411, with a quarter of an hour to go in qualifying, taking advantage of a red flag, Alain gets out of his McLaren and goes into plain clothes. A provocation in perfect Prost style, but also the conviction that he had done something special. "Alain wandered around the pits in jeans to be seen by Senna," Ramirez recalls, "and I think it affected that because then Ayrton the more he tried to go fast, the less he could." Senna on the track in traffic could not improve and could do nothing but sit next to his partner on the front row."
