My mother has raised 3 daughters with Autism and 2 of us also have ADHD. She likes to say thatβs sheβs gotten pretty good at spotting the signs.
And being me Iβm of course going to bring this back around to F1.
All of this to say, I was watching drive to survive a couple months back. It was s7 the last episode and sheβs listening to Max speak in a press conference and she goes βhe should get testedβ π (I strongly agree!)
I think this about a few of the drivers. Their childhoods were so hectic that no one ever thought to stop and ask themselves βis my child neurotypical?β And my answer for a few of them is absolutely not! So here is my analysisβ¦.
Carmen Mundt recently told us that George Russell has a pen he takes with him every time they travel and heβs had it for 6 years and it has to be that specific pen. Iβd also like to mention George and his very clear desire to fit in and be liked. Which reminds me so much of younger undiagnosed me. His jokes donβt land but he makes them anyway because he wants to be liked!!! Georgeβs thing with the PowerPoints also must be mentioned.
Of course I canβt mention George without mentioning Alex. Every time Alex Albon speaks itβs like Iβm listening to a recording of myself on a day I didnβt take my vyvanse. Alex Albon just screams ADHD. He rarely has a complete thought. On the team torque podcast I swear I can see the gears spinning in his head and they are spinning FAST.
Max, Alex, and George are the main ones that really stick out for me. George Russell and Alex Albon being a package deal makes even more sense when I think about this. They match each otherβs freak like no other π₯² (also thereβs something very neurodivergent about Alex albonβs whole first date with Lily story)
