know you'll always have this if you stay this man

Last question from Max and Daniel press conference in Austin

Question for Daniel as Max's former teammate, somebody who has been up close and personal, is there anything that you have seen him as a driver or in his personality that you think might give him an edge in this championship race?

This man trying to teach daniel how not to die on the bike: no pumping [the brakes] I'm here, I'll be going forwards

”You want me to sign this you peasant?..Very well” 😂

idk, bud, what is “normal”? is it “normal” to write about the life and times of Antony and Cleopatra, as Willy “The Bard” Shakespeare did? how about making a critically-acclaimed biopic about a real woman who really walked this earth, speculating about the sex lives of actual humans, like 2018’s Colette (or indeed 1991’s Becoming Colette)? is that “normal”? or what if you write a screenplay about the real Jane Austen and her doomed love life (Becoming Jane, 2007)? or about Thomas Jefferson’s “sexual combustibility” (1776, 1972)? ooo, on the topic of the Founding Fathers, is Lin Manuel Miranda “normal” for writing raps about Alexander Hamilton boning down on another man’s wife (Hamilton, 2015)? or, if you’re more sympathetic to the other side of that conflict, where do you think The Crown (2016) falls on the scale of “normal”?

really, who among us is “normal”? how do we define “normal” in a media landscape absolutely bursting with the authorized, unauthorized, uncouth, and unabridged imagined lives of real people, living or dead? for that matter, how do you define “real” people? if you’re writing about a public figure whose entire persona is curated for you through tabloid magazines and film directors and editors and makeup artists and graphic designers and publicists, how “real” can this figure be said to be to you? if you’re writing about the completely made-up life of a movie star reimagined as a college student in your hometown falling in love with his costar who through a twist of fate has become his roommate, is this still a “real” person you are writing about? is this a “normal” pastime? is writing anything fictional, fantastic, or completely fabricated based on a sliver of the actual world a “normal” thing to do?
