I spoke to someone at Le Mans who was very close to [Max's] GT program on the Nordschleife and he said: "He's a freak." He goes all the way to extract every last bit from the people, the technology, the shock absorbers. He brought in a box of absorbers he got from a guy he knows in France: "These are the absorbers we're driving with." So AMG's completely pissed off: 'We don't want that because we've got, I don't know, Bilstein as German absorber manufacturer.'

But well, he's just like his dad. You could also call him on the Friday of a kart-race weekend and say: "In the south of Italy they've got a carburettor that's half a tenth faster," and Jos would get in the car in the middle of the night to go pick up that carburettor. And that's how Max is too. That's a family thing: get everything out of it. - Renger van der Zande, Ziggo Race Café De Stamtafel

(DAVIDSON: that... is trusting the team, the people around you, isn't it.)

the way some people handle being in a sports fandom just makes it glaringly obvious they'd never been in a sports fandom before. wdym you're switching sides after a handful of bad results? wdym you "can't defend them"? what do you actually mean, it's ride or die, we're not here for good times only, we're here when shit gets rough, we're here through the lowest of the lows, we're here for the goddamn hope of it all, because without those, the highs would never taste so sweet and the victories would never mean so much. you can't always be on top and you won't always have a great time, but you must, at all times, keep the faith because that's what makes it all worth it in the end. even when it seems impossible. especially when it seems impossible.

🎥 viaplayracingnl the Netherlands at the World Cup

C: Do you concern yourself with the line-up of [the Dutch football team] ahead of the match? Do you discuss it with your friends, like: 'No, we should go with Malen or Brobbey or Depay as striker.'?

M: I'll just leave that up to Ronald [Koeman, coach]. I think he knows more about it than the other 17 million people. So in the end you have to leave it up to the people who know best and I'll just watch as a fan.

C: Did you send, for example, Virgil a message to say: 'Good luck, boys.'?

M: Yes, last week... That Sunday he texted me after-- when I was on the couch at home.

C: Oh, after last week?

M: Yeah yeah, of course he'd been watching. No, but just regular things.

C: 'Bring that Cup home' is what you text?

M: No. I didn't even say that but of course I wished him good luck.

“Sure,” Alex agrees. “Do you wanna–” Something stops him in his tracks and his eyes widen. Charles hears someone laughing – howling. Gabriel. He turns around and– Max is marching across the padel court, cheeks flaming pink, as pink as– Well, as pink as the pleated tennis skirt he’s wearing. Gabriel appears to find it the funniest sight he has ever seen, slapping his thighs, almost teetering over in a fit of laughter. “Mate, I didn’t think you’d actually do it!” -- Max loses a bet and has to wear a skirt to padel. Charles has certain feelings about it.
