I grieve nothing. I take everything.

We get one photo of him congratulating a rival and these people act like he’s “turned over a new leaf” ever since becoming a father, or something wild, as though he hasn’t always been like that.

I beg you people to go and read the shit max has been saying for years. And no, I don’t mean the controversial one-liners that are infamous - not that those didn’t happen or anything - I mean all the other things he has said and done for years now, consistently. Please, actually read an interview from at least a few years ago. Or watch some footage of him in the first few years of his career. He’s not a cyborg, he’s a human, and he’s definitely grown up a lot - just like every other human has over the past 10 years of their lives - but it’s so annoying watching people act like he has suddenly matured just because the media have actually posted a positive piece about him and/or he hasn’t been in a fight on track recently.

it’s extra annoying knowing that the moment max goes wheel to wheel with anyone and is even slightly aggressive, the narrative will shift back to the “he has never changed” “he will never mature” shit that is purely reacting to his on-track shenanigans and judging his entire character for it. So then once he says something in the media that you agree with you’ll have to go through the whole cycle of “he has calmed down” etc. again when nothing has actually changed. And it will happen, because yeah, max has never changed his driving-style, something he himself has talked about in interviews before if anyone cared to read or hear them.
