"why can't two men just be friends" "why can't two women just be friends" "why can't a man and a woman just be friends" why can't i run you over with a honda civic omfg
actually I will elaborate on why didier and gilles are such a tragedy: when you think about it, they're the only iconic duo in which both are dead.
Jackie Stewart lost François Cevert and retired immediately after that, devastated by the pain of his loss, but he's still alive even if he was born in 1939!
Nigel Mansell lost Elio de Angelis and dedicated his next victory to him, he's still alive and still remembers him dearly.
Ayrton is dead, but Alain is still there.
But Didier, Didier is not here. He is not walking around paddocks with a cane, old and grey-haired, remembering Gilles at official events. In virtue of him being still alive the weight of the guilt on his shoulders would have settled off, and maybe not many people would still call him a traitor to his face. He would deserve the same pride, the same spark in his eyes Alain has when talking about his unique relationship with Ayrton, but talking about Gilles instead. About how their souls were made of the same material, how deep their friendship was and how sad it was they never had time to talk. But he would have his unique memories, and his sons, and his name would be cleared.
But he's not there. His name is still dragged in mud to this day.
Be grateful that your favourite drivers (retired or not) are still alive, that they can talk, they can spend time together. Because Didier and Gilles cannot do that anymore.
In case you were wondering, "losing your voice" in sociolinguistics is the phenomenon where a person moves into a new environment where their speech and mannerisms aren't considered prestigious or fitting anymore, such as an Indian doctor with a well respected British dialect just sounding Indian in Britain.
not to senna/schumacher post on main but do you ever think about this picture
[ nicola larini and schumacher being told that senna was in critical condition ]
or this clip of michael being asked if equalling senna meant much to him
do you ever think about the fact that michael was in denial when confronted with senna's death and only admitted to accepting it two weeks after the fact. do you ever think he would have felt guilt realising he watched senna sustain his injuries a few corners ahead during a seemingly "innocuous crash" whilst chasing him. do you ever think, retrospectively, that he felt like he shouldn't have won at imola. do you ever think about the fact that even in death senna continued to dominate headlines, eclipsing schumacher's win. do you ever think about the fact that schumacher and senna would occasionally meet after races to discuss where they had gone wrong/where they had lost speed. do you ever think about schumacher realising that would never happen again. do you ever think about the love that was there.
because i do.

Oscar can see it in their eyes. They’re all looking at him like he’s a monster.

also get it? oopsie daisy? daisy being the reader’s daughters name… I’ll go home now
really got me giggling how much we talk about the magic of first teammates and how special that relationship is (lando and carlos, yuki and pierre, basically max and daniel) and then there’s 2007 rookie lewis hamilton who entered the sport and immediately pissed off his first teammate, fernando alonso, a TWO TIME WORLD CHAMPION so much they became one of the most infamous purely toxic and intense teammate rivalries of all time.
Every single time I've told someone that my fav film is the martian they are severely underwhelmed and i dont get it. What about this movie isn't MOVING YOU TO PIECES
sometimes you just have to sob over the martian film at its depiction of human nature and the nature of science and spaceflight. ITS ABOUT THE LOVE AND KINDNESS AND CARING FOR A SINGLE HUMAN LIFE.
I fear those of you praying Oscar Piastri morphs into Sebastian Vettel are not considering the following two factors:
Sebastian Vettel in his youth, was a terrorist on and off track. He drove Lewis and Fernando and everyone else NUTS.
It might kill Mark Webber.
