What She Says: Yay, Ollie‘s Got A Seat! He Deserves That!

fuck romeo and juliet, i want what these bitches have

this sport's standards are actually incomprehensible my god.

mick has 43 race starts, he's 23. haas considers that he's had his chance and honestly, if they'd decided to sign anyone from the junior formulas (which is a Massive pool of unused talent) then i'd get it.

but hulkenberg's 35 with 181 race starts and not a single podium. i understand that haas sees that he'll get them midfield points at best but jesus christ how long is this man going to stay in one of 20 seats when talented guys ten years his juniors have to settle for test and reserve driver roles

I hope Daniel gets to eat as many pizza as he wants next year

I hope he gets to ride his bike on his farm and learn new tricks

I hope he gets to go to Austin whenever he wants and gets to wear his little cowboy outfits to his heart’s content

I hope he gets to be there for his niece and nephew’s birthdays and gets to be pampered by mama Grace

I hope he spends next year listening to good music and I hope he knows that it’s ok if he doesn’t pick himself back up right away. I hope he takes his time and find the light inside him again.

And after all this, if he wants to get back to racing, I hope he gets the opportunity to show that the honey badger still has what it takes

May not win rookie of the year, but win pookie of the year

from wankers to legends back to wankers in under seven days. all in a week’s work for haas f1 team.

“why don’t you just…?” the answer is either money or anxiety

*I would like to see the baby*

NO TRULY!!! watching the entire filipino f1 fan community (including me) freak out was so cute but also seeing the rest of the world (or at least the accounts i follow or come across) celebrate it as well is so heart warming ❤️‍🩹 bianca deserves nothing but the best and all the support!!

bianca bustamante getting signed by mclaren in their driver development programme is, dare i say, monumental for philippine motorsport. bianca is from a country that doesn't have an accessible racing facility. i can count one race track and two karting tracks off the top of my head. getting funding to be in motorsport here is a massive pain in the ass, it's virtually impossible for a filipino to break through international motorsport. the furthest a filipino has reached in single seater racing is gp3 with marlon stockinger in the early 2010s.

bianca is the philippines' closest hope to get to f1. she is doing the unthinkable, the impossible. bianca bustamante is breaking barriers for philippine motorsport. she is the first woman to score a win in a FIA sanctioned single seater event, first since marlon stockinger winning in monaco in 2012.

when she said in her introductory video from mclaren that she is a child of an overseas filipino worker—a working class citizen who has to leave the philippines for opportunities abroad that offer higher wages because no job in the philippines can offer you a salary that is livable—that is very powerful. it is striking and only adds weight to why this signing is very important to us. she's now in the radar of f1 teams, hopefully filipinos also take notice.

i'm so proud of bianca and i'm so looking forward to her carrying the flag for this country in southeast asia with a population of 109 million. god i hope she thrives so badly.
