i think the reason im so unmoved by kimi antonelli and his success this year is that in his f1 career, there has been little to no struggle and that makes him fundamentally unrelatable to me. dont get me wrong, im completely astounded by his ability to perform on track (even if its helped by his luck and having the fastest car) but being the championship leader in his sophomore season is infinitely less compelling to me than his counterpart, george, who has clawed his way up from lower teammate and earned his spot at a top team only to be brushed off as automatic second seat to his seven time champion teammate but then when he finally has the opportunity to prove himself as a first seat driver at an incredibly fast team, hes pushed to the side by his prodigy teammate. george winning would be an amazing case of proving everyone wrong and being the best DESPITE the people hes been measured up again, DESPITE what people think and say about him, DESPITE every obstacle put in his way. winning in the face of adversity, of hardship, of extreme unluckiness, thats such a testament to keep trying, to continuing on, to getting up and getting closer when youve been pushed aside time and time again... is that not far more relatable to any regular person rather than being the best from the jump? i dont know. to me, it is.
