what do i have TO DO to get more people into the sebmark hype train?!?!?! istg they are EVERYTHING!!
not only we have sebastian vettel winning the 2010 title after not leading it at ANY GIVEN POINT, but he also wins it against his own teammate, who had been in red bull for years at that point. then, he keeps on winning and winning and winning NON FUCKING STOP while webber has to deal with the fact that red bull will never prioritize him.
imagine being mark webber and seeing this german twink who races like the devil possessed him walk into your team, win a grand prix with the car before you can, get updates taken off YOUR car when HE crashes while YOU are leading the championship, and have your entire team seemingly supporting HIM instead of you? (iconic "not bad for a number 2 driver" line comes from there btw, after mark manages to win the race WITHOUT the updates on the car)
all of that without mentioning the 2010 turkish GP (and the "fuck you, im going home" quote from vettel) and, obvi, malaysia 2013 ("multi 21 seb" AND "i dont apologize for winning" r u kidding ME?!?!), both times where shit absolutely hits the fan.
the multi 21 incident is so iconic that its STILL quoted TIL THIS DAY (*cough cough* landoscar cool down room) by the drivers themselves. if brocedes was a friendship falling apart, sebmark was literally WAR inside a team.
there are two points in time where the two are barely capable of looking at each other, while the rest of the years are held with a CLEAR tension that simply never snaps (until 2013 that is). before the 2010 fiasco, tho, they are buying the SAME CAR in different colors, having fun with each other in monaco and having some insane photos taken of them (holding hands on a podium HELLO?!)
then, mark leaves. he is so done with red bull and vettel that he (supposedly) gets an offer from Ferrari and STILL decides to just go to WEC.
and never AGAIN does vettel manages to win a championship.
there are an INFINITE amount of lore connecting these two and I could literally go on for HOURS.
sebmark offers us literally EVERYTHING. we have the whole "i hate you" thing that gets mixed up with jealousy and envy. we have the angst and the constant fights. we have red bull taking sides and making mark's life miserable. we have the wild age gap. we have sebastian vettel at his ABSOLUTE peak of brattiness. we have mark webber, injured, pretending to be okay (2010 im pretty sure) because he already knows red bull just needs ONE reason not to back him in the championship. we have PERFECT tension in the podiums.
they are giving "toxic, can't live without u" relationship and i am here for it. like WDYM vettel NEVER WINS A TITLE AGAIN AFTER MARK LEAVES?!?!?! its fucking insane.
please, all the gax lovers, I KNOW yall would eat sebmark up. TRUST ME. they also have all the toxic vibes, mark being the more centered one while sebastian is just there for the chaos (webber always somehow losing his shit when it comes to HIM and ONLY him), the envy for what the other has conquered, the tension, the media aspect of it (bad mouthing each other publicly), the rumors surrounding them both all the time, the preference from the team principal (horner always loved seb, and we all know toto has it bad for max), the pushing each other out of the track.
please PLEASE PLEASE!! i need more people thinking, talking, reading and writing about them
