I'm a bit late to the party, I was waiting for everything to be out before judging. [it's long but I think worth reading it]
the way you choose to be represented is very important and has always been because it's a powerful tool -the way kings represented themselves in painting, dictators or presidents for their official portrait is really important and says a lot about them. here, Kelly, her agency and the editor-in-chief decided that it was a good idea to appropriate the usual representation of drivers: the helmet on the cover, the racing suit, cars visible on almost every pictures and filming the promotional video inside a garage and filming her driving a car with a racing helmet/suit, justified by the narrative of «she can because she's the daughter of a world champion and the partner of a world champion/F1 driver so it's part of who she is» but it makes no sense because Kelly isn't a racing driver and more importantly, don't want to be a driver, she wants to be a model and made it clear on her interview, so why using something foreing for «her» cover and moment? it was a prime opportunity to go beyond the «someone's partner, someone's girlfriend». and it doesn't make sense either with her persona: she never wears anything motorsports related, hardly post about it if it's not Max and don't seem to follow any other racing categories than F1 -she doesn't look like a motorsports fan that would attend many racing events or closely follow races/championships and doesn't fit her instagram vibe:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
the photoshoot that «represents her because racing is part of her identity» / her instagram feed (without Vogue recent photos) > 1 thing racing related: going to see her boyfriend race/Louis Vuitton ad
something I find interesting: out of all the picture posted by @.kellypiquetsource, she choose to post on her own account only the ones linked to motorsports, not the ones next to the swimming pool that are more model-like. most people won't buy the magazine, so they will link Kelly Piquet to racing because of the promotional video and the way she appropriate the codes of racing. if I'm being honest, if I see this magazine in a store, I won't think she's just a model on the cover of a magazine because when someone's name is clearly visible on the cover and is linked to a sport, it means that the person is know in this sport. for example: (there is not a lot because athlete usually do more model-like shootings if it's not a sports magazine) but we can mention these:
Tumblr media
Simone Biles for Times 2021 (I don't think I need to present her 😅) / Pusarla Venkata Sindhu on the left, a badminton player that got a silver medal at the 2016 Rio OG, known in India, here for Harper's Bazaar in 2021
the cover choice of Vogue NL really looks like one of photos of the Harper's Bazaar Arabia featuring Amna Al Qubaisi — link to the article because it's really interesting (and the photos are breathtaking) and clearly, there is no difference in the structure of the cover than the 2 previous magazine cover, when the 3 other than Kelly are professionnal athletes. you can genuinely thinks she's a racing driver.
Tumblr media
Kelly's cover / Amna Al Qubaisi for Harper's Bazaar Arabia of Novemeber 2022 - she drives in the regional F3
here the covers of 2 females drivers in not-motorsports magazine: we see the leather jacket and helmet for Susie and the racing suit and gloves for Jamie (when the other girls are wearing dresses) -helmet, leather jacket, suit and gloves are really linked to motorsports and say «that person is a driver» and were used by Vogue to link Kelly to motorsports.
Tumblr media
Susie Wolff in 2014 for The Weekly Review (lifestyle magazine) / Jamie Chadwick for Asian Wealth in 2018 (lifestyle magazine)
2 other example: Georgina Rodriguez magazine covers (she had them and a career thanks to be being Cristiano Ronaldo girlfriend so it makes sense to compare the two) it's very fashion and not related to football at all because she tries to build her own persona (and her Netflix show is going on the same direction -I didn't watch it but that was the idea of it I think 😅) her name is not in the middle and she looks like any not-famous model you can see on magazines. the other example is Zhou that, like Lewis did (but as we always talk about him I choose my beloved Guanyu instead, so many people sleep on him 😅) choose to not use the usual racing codes you can see on motorsports magazine. nothing is racing oriented, you can't think he's a F1 driver when you look at the cover, it's really fashion oriented.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
screenshot of a Google research for their name + «magazine cover»
here, I put 4 covers of Vogue Netherlands featuring models without their names on the cover so they choose to represent Kelly as a known person because her name is really visible, known in the racing world because it's not fashion photos and the racing world is everywhere, and as a driver because there are all the codes of racing. on the other collage, I put 4 athletes on Vogue covers: Lovlina Borgohain, (a professional boxer), Naomi Osaka, Neymar and Serena Williams > none of them, like Zhou, used their sports for their image when it's their whole life and the reason they're known (I don't forget about Gisele she's just not the subject here)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
on the left: Vogue NL February 2012/December 2019/June 2021/May 2021 / on the right: Vogue India October 2021 / Vogue January 2021 / Vogue Brazil May 2014 / Vogue February 2018
I honestly don't think it's dramatic she got a cover that way but I was expecting a fashion photoshoot to back what she keeps trying to do: becoming a model -I don't consider having done 2 professional shootings for magazines and invited to less than 5 shows in 1 year being a model), but not a full racing photoshoot. she keeps saying motorsports is part of her life, but where? she didn't mention in the interview the only thing she did in the sport: working for the communication of FE. I really dislike the fact that she used codes that aren't hers only for a shooting because she don't care about racing, so it makes no sense, and if Vogue wanted to put a racer on the cover, they just call one or hire models but they don't make someone that never drove a racing car a «female in motorsports» because real woman in motorsports are hardly given any screentime or attention, struggle so hard to have sponsors to drive and face so much sexism -it makes me sick that any wag has more followers and attention than female racing drivers, or that people cares about the woman working in motorsports only if they're pretty. this is a prime example of it, because she's not just «a model», they made her part of the few woman that worked so hard to be there, when she never did.
she's «more known» as a model, they should have stick with that and focus the article on fashion (especially when people say to defend her «it's a fashion magazine» well, then how do you explain that athletes on the covers talk about their career and journey on «fashion magazine» interviews? plus she has a rather good fashion sense and worked in the field before, and it would have fueled her career as a model. and the interview wasn't even about fashion at all, but her private with Max. that being said, the way they promoted the article here (I can't put the screenshot, it's only 10 media/you can translate it with google) clearly shows that she's a side character on this: on the cover because of Max -I guess they wanted a couple shot like the ones below- and about racing because of her dad. about her dad, it's ridiculous and disgusting that Vogue could shot at his house and casually mention him and put his name on their magazine but the police can't find him when there is an enquiry about him for being racist, without forgetting about his nazi salute, the fact he threatened the new president but we put his name and house on display???
Tumblr media
iconic Gigi Hadid and Zayn Malik cover Vogue August 2017 / and lovely cover of Achraf Hakimi (Psg player) and Hiba Abouk (Spanish actress) Vogue Arabia October 2022
thank you for reading, it was really long, I'm sorry 🫶🏻 there's a lot more to say, but this shows that people aren't unhappy about the «@nlvogue January/February 2023 Cover Girl» because they just randomly decided they don't like Kelly, there is reason for people saying they should have chosen a female driver. and of course, what she said in the interview that we already talked about here
Thank you so much for this nonnie! To the tag it goes in case someone else finds it interesting too.

Newly crowned world champion Neeraj Chopra had little time to rest and was back in business at the Zurich Diamond League on Thursday (August 1). The reigning Olympic gold medallist added to his tally of medal with a best throw of 85.22 metres, on a day where he seemed far from his best. Much like his start at the World Athletics Championships, Neeraj did not have a good start in Zurich as he started with an underwhelming throw of 80.79m. It then started to be seem like a rare off day for Chopra as he followed that with a foul on his second attempt and third attempts.

Scaling unusual heights and creating record-breaking revenues in 2022, the Indian eSports industry went through extreme changes and flourished into a billion-dollar industry. With more than 507 million gamers, the nation’s gaming market reached a $2.6 billion imprint this year and will develop at a CAGR of 27% to reach $8.6 billion by 2027, as per the new Lumikai Gaming Report.
The revenue numbers might be a demonstration of the industry’s striking development this year, yet they alone are not the champion of this excursion. Various achievements were achieved during the time, which raised the industry to a more significant level and changed everybody’s viewpoint regarding video gaming, giving them an uplifting perspective.
2022: A milestone year for Indian gaming
The most significant of these was unquestionably the official government recognition of Esports as a multi-sport event, which finally distinguished video gaming from fantasy games. Years of community effort finally dragged natural products along with the revolutionary decision that paved the way for India’s brilliant time of video gaming.
There are the heroics of India’s gifted athletes, who won an impressive bronze medal in DOTA 2 at the Commonwealth Games in Birmingham, Sim racer Muhammad Ibrahim was ranked #5 globally, and Hitesh Khorwal finished in the top 8 (Tekken) at the 14th World Esports Championship. Following that, the proposal of eSports as an official medal sport at the 2025 Asian Indoor and Martial Arts Games (AIMAG) and the affirmation of the Olympic Esports Week in June 2023 by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) were likewise key victories for the industry on the global stage.
Furthermore, the contribution of mainstream media such as INOX, OTT platforms, and TV channels that broadcast high-profile Esports tournaments such as the BGMI Masters Series 2022 caused viewership to skyrocket and video gaming to become a mainstream game in India for the first time.
Big-name non-endemic brands like Puma, Bingo, Hyundai, and a lot more additionally understood the capability of the industry and announced their arrival in the gaming market to capitalize on its lucrative prospects.
With these achievements enhancing the nation’s Esports scene and paving the way for a grand slam year for the entire sector to flourish, the following are five key trends to look out for in 2023.
Promotion of made-in-India video games
Game developers in the nation have been working for a long time to create video games of the highest quality that will put India on the worldwide map, along with well-known publishers like Netease, Tencent, Supercell, and so on, but have frequently missed the mark on funding to do so.
That obstacle is currently being addressed, with adequate funding flowing in from large corporations as well as the government itself, providing the industry with the necessary push to prosper.
As expressed in the Lumikai Gaming report, Indian gaming organizations have raised $2.8 billion from investors over the most recent five years. This number is probably going to flood in 2023, motivating and presenting homegrown game developers with adequate funds to make superior, top-notch games while additionally prompting “Make in India” video games.
Increase in physical LAN tournaments
It has been a thrill ride for LAN tournaments in the country, with the pandemic first and then the boycott of BGMI. The lockdown got the community acclimated to online tournaments, which turned into the norm until the world opened up for everybody. Esports tournaments are once again conducted on a large scale, yet the restriction on India’s dominant gaming title, BGMI, undermined most of the in-person tournaments, leaving an immense question mark on their return.
However, with Esports organizations adopting a multi-roster approach and the rise of other popular gaming titles such as Valorant, Pokemon Unite, and PUBG: New State, LAN tournaments will return quickly and unequivocally in 2023.
In-game player spending
The gaming community in India developed radically all through 2022 and found itself spending more in-game money than ever before. India’s PC and mobile markets created player spending of nearly $704.5 million with 396.4 million gamers this year, as per the recent 2022 India Games Market Report by Niko Partners.
Around 34% of video gamers in the nation will spend money on games in 2022, exhibiting the expansion in the number and eagerness of both hardcore and casual video gamers in the country to pay in-game.
If current trends continue, player spending is expected to rise to $1.4 billion with 630 million players by 2026, with a spike in 2023.
Asian Games
Esports will make its debut as a full-fledged medal sport at the following year’s Asian Games, and the whole gaming organization’s eyes will be on it to see which nation writes history.
India’s 18-member contingent, which got its berth at the esteemed event through the National Esports Championships, will address the country in five titles: DOTA 2, Hearthstone, FIFA 22, Street Fighter V, and League of Legends. The tournament holds great importance for the gaming community, as the nation will view gamers as athletes for the first time and support them.
Metaverse, Web3, 5G
Various technological trends have overwhelmed the whole world, and the gaming universe is no different. Giving a consistent encounter to gamers by permitting them to connect virtually, build and foster universes, and develop sub-games inside a game,
Metaverse has taken virtual reality gaming and transformed it into something entirely new.
Incorporating blockchain innovation into gaming, Web3 has opened up new roads for gamers to possess in-game assets as non-fungible tokens (NFTs), giving them absolute control. One more benefit for the gaming scene is that 5G’s low latency, high penetration, and rapid speed will make video gaming vivid and assist in multiplying the number of gamers all over the country.
The Indian gaming community just got a brief look at these trends in 2022; they will transform the industry and have extensive impacts in the forthcoming year.
