times are hard for dreamers/you just wait sunshine

People try to convince us that Maxiel is dead but then Max Verstappen himself does everything in his power to express his love for Daniel Ricciardo as loudly as he possibly can like if you couldn’t be a world champion I’m going to make sure that a red bull car with #3 on it wins the championship anyway like even John Keats wouldn’t have been able to write such great poetry these guys are fucking insane.

sorry don’t mind me, I’m just remembering max telling daniel in monza 2021, "if you get to the front, I’ll just defend against the rest for you." Like, we really moved on from how crazy that was too quick: max verstappen, who once refused to move aside to let his own struggling teammate take a p7 finish, who has said outright that he wants to be the one to win every race, was fully ready to just play defense and back up the pack for daniel if he needed him to. like it’s really singapore 2024 levels of "the love was there and it mattered."

max truly genuinely thought daniel ricciardo was the coolest person in the whole world

it’s december so you have to do whatever the hell you want!! whatever happens will stay in 2025 so you might as well just do it

when you think about the way teenaged ball of raw-ass unhinged talent max used to look at and laugh at cool kid daniel ricciardo... back in the day... f1 fandom peaked there FOREVER
