i know i do this quite a lot already but before i disappear into nothingness i wanna talk a bit about someone called lando norris.
born 13th november 1999, in bristol. his father is english, and his mother is belgian. he holds dual british and belgian citizenship. he barely speaks either language. he has three siblings, two younger sisters and one older brother.
in 2010 he placed 3rd in super 1 national championship, and then 2nd in 2011. in that same year he won formula kart stars and placed 3rd in copa de campeones. in 2013 he won the wsk euro series, the cik-fia european championship and cik-fia international super cup while placing 2nd in the wsk super master series.
in 2014 when he was 14, he placed 3rd in the ginetta junior championship with 4 wins, 11 podiums, 8 poles, 2 fastest laps and 432 points in 20 races.
a year later, he partook in the msa formula championship with carlin where he placed 1st, beating ricky collard and then teammate colton herta. that same year he also raced in the inaugural season of adac formula 4. he entered in 8/24 races, won 1 race and got 5 other podiums and ended in 8th place out of 51 drivers.
2015 also saw him race in the italian formula 4 championship where he placed 11th after racing in 9/21 races, and the brdc formula 4 autumn trophy where he placed 5th after racing in 4/8 races.
2016 was a busy year for 16-year-old lando. as a rookie he won both the eurocup formula renault 2.0 and formula renault 2.0 nec with josef kaufmann racing, and also the toyota racing series - also as a rookie.
he drove 11/24 races in the brdc british formula 3 championship, winning four races and getting on the podium for four others, resulting in an overall p8. he drove as a guest (ineligible for points) for carlin in the fia formula 3 european championship and placed 11th in the macau grand prix after having started the race p27.
in 2017 lando entered the fia formula 3 european championship with carlin. he won the drivers' championship with 441 pts. during 30 races he won 9 times, got on the podium 11 other times, got 8 poles and 8 fastest laps. he became the first non-prema driver to win the championship.
he also won the fia formula 3 european rookie championship with 628 pts, beating drivers like jehan daruvala and mick schumacher.
in the macau grand prix that year, he placed 2nd. he made his debut in round 11 of the fia formula 2 championship with campos racing, replacing ralph boschung, retiring in the feature race and placing 13th in the sprint race.
also in 2017, lando was signed as a junior driver with mclaren. he tested for mclaren in a scheduled mid-season test and set the second-fastest lap in the second day of testing at the hungaroring. later that year he officially became the mclaren test and reserve driver for the 2018 season.
in 2018 he entered the formula 2 championship with carlin. as a rookie, he placed 2nd with 1 win and 7 other podiums. current f1 drivers that competed alongside him are george russell, alex albon and nicky latifi.
he also drove daytona 24h with fernando alonso and phil hanson in a prototype car on continental tyres, recovering 33 seconds in 20 laps.
2019 was his rookie year in f1, the youngest british f1 driver of all time at age 19. he was partnered with carlos sainz at mclaren. that meant mclaren had a brand new driver line-up, with carlos having signed a two-year deal after a two-year stint at renault. lando finished 11th in the drivers' championship with 49 points, while carlos scored 96 points. lando did outqualify carlos at 11/21 races. during this season lando signed a new contract keeping him at mclaren until 2022.
due to covid the 2020 season started in july, and it started with a bang with lando qualifying p4 (elevated to p3 because of a hamilton penalty, the highest grid position of lando's career at the time and the highest for mclaren since the 2016 austrian gp). lando finished the race p3, getting his first f1 podium and his first fastest lap (he got his second at the turkish gp). scenario 7 lando was born. this also made lando the third youngest podium-finisher in f1 history (a record formerly held by jenson button). he finished p9 in the end, with 97 points, almost doubling his 2019 points. carlos finished 6th with 105 points but once again, lando out qualified him 9/17.
2021 was lando's best year in f1 to date. he got a new teammate, daniel ricciardo, who, like carlos, came from a two-year stint at renault. lando amassed four more podiums this year, three p3's and one p2. he started on the first row for the first time when he got p2 in quali in austria, but went on to do better as he got his first pole in sochi, and a first real shot at a win while also recording the fastest lap at the same race. he finished the season in p6 with 160 points, 45 more points than his teammate. he also out-qualified dan 14/22. this year he also set a record for consecutive points finishes for a mclaren driver, with a streak of 15 races in the top-10. the record was previously held by two-time world champion fernando alonso. lando signed a new contract locking him down at mclaren until the end of the 2025 season.
the 2022 season isn't over, but while the car hasn't really been up to speed, lando has done everything and more to keep mclaren in the p4 fight. he has one podium, a p3, the only driver outside of rbr, ferrari and merc, and he has 109 points, 79% of mclaren's 138 points. he's currently p7 in the standings, behind the rbr, ferrari, and mercedes drivers.
he also did all three days of preseason testing in bahrain after daniel fell ill, raced in monaco with tonsillitis securing the fastest lap and has only once, in 79 races, been eliminated in q1 (never this year). he has made it to q2 since silverstone 2019, one of the longest streaks of any current driver on the grid.
in 2016 he won british club driver of the year and the mclaren autosport brdc award at the autosport awards.
in 2018 he won national driver of the year at the autosport awards.
in 2019, 2020 and 2021 he won british competition driver of the year at the autosport awards.
in 2021 he was nominated for fia personality of the year at the fia prize giving awards, alongside drivers such as max verstappen, lewis hamilton and sebastian vettel.
tldr; lando isn't just someone who stumbled into f1 back in 2019 with nothing to show for it, with no accolades or experience on his back. does he have a disproportionate amount of privilege coming from a wealthy family? of course, he does, but so do most of the grid in one way or another. whether it's monetary, being connected to the former president of the fia or getting personally invested in by a team principal of an f1 team when you're still in karts.
there are a lot of talented drivers that never get into f1 because of reasons; there are some drivers who lack the talent to drive an f1 car yet still get into the series. lando doesn't fit into either category. he's there because of a lot of things, but the main ones are talent, speed, dedication, teamwork, focus, preparation and the willingness to learn and partake in building a car for the future, whether it's giving feedback through sim work or working with the mechanics to figure out how the car works.
tldr2; lando deserves to be in the sport, on the grid, to be lauded and loved and applauded.

On This Day in F1: February 12th
Present: Aston Martin Car Launch
History: 2020 Chinese Grand Prix Canceled
February 12th, 2024 starts the second week of car launches. Today, Aston Martin launched its AMR24 for the 2024 season. It is another car with lots of paint, though not as brightly painted as the VCARB car.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Unlike other car launches so far, Aston Martin did end up taking the AMR24 on track at Silverstone for its shakedown where both Fernando Alonso and Lance Stroll got to drive the car for the first time.
In 2020, February 12th was the first of many cancelations for the Chinese Grand Prix.
The 2020 Chinese Grand Prix had originally been scheduled for April 17-19. However, due to health concerns and the outbreak of the Coronavirus, the promoters of the Chinese Grand Prix requested a postponement of the event.
This occurred days before the 2020 Formula 1 season was postponed until early July and the world went into lockdown to combat the spread of COVID-19.
As Formula 1 returned to its regularly scheduled races following the 2020 season, the Chinese Grand Prix was scheduled in 2021, 2022, and 2023 as per its contract with Formula 1. However, it would be canceled every time due to COVID-19 restrictions put in place by the Chinese government.
As of now, the Chinese Grand Prix is scheduled and highly expected to happen on April 21. With a sprint also scheduled for that weekend, it is highly probable that after four years of cancelations, the Grand Prix will make its return to the Formula 1 calendar.

Prev.: Feb. 8th — 2006 Belgian GP Canceled
Next: Feb. 13th — Ferrari Car Launch

saw that you made a post recommending good max races, could you make one for daniel as well
oh absolutely nonnie (this will be a long ass post because daniel is that great)
2012 Bahrain Qualifying - a really amazing quali for daniel in a midfield car, the race wasn’t that great for him though
2014 British GP - daniel had a different race style this weekend but worked in his favour and ended up P3
2014 Canadian GP - DANIEL’S FIRST WIN!! Full on mercedes drama with daniel not leading a lap till the very end
2014 Hungarian GP - a wet starting race that was full of different strategies, underlying merc drama as usual and daniel made some real ballsy overtakes, most notably on fernando and lewis, to go and win the race
2014 Belgian GP - it’s another dan win but this race is GREAT for the mercedes drama that plagued 2014 - 2016
2014 Abu Dhabi GP - this one gets so overlooked because of the title decider but my man started P19 after basically being DSQ and finished P4 with some amazing overtakes, one with two cars at once
2016 Monaco GP - this was hard, daniel had an absolutely amazing race starting on pole until red bull fucked his pitstop so it ended with pain
2016 Malaysian GP - Malaysia is just such a sexy race for red bull drivers and i miss this circuit a lot. A 1-2 with baby maxy
2016 was amazing in qualifying for daniel so i would recommend watching them as well, he got podiums in Germany (that included some team orders though if that’s not what you’re into) and Singapore
2017 Monaco GP - daniel got third after some good strategies with tyres and even though he hit the wall towards the end
2017 Azerbaijan GP - this race was drama, seb and lewis were at it and causing each other grief, which allowed daniel to go and win the race from P10 with one of the most sexiest overtakes he’s ever done
2017 Austrian GP - just some nice defending from daniel against lewis for P3
2017 Malaysian GP - nice defending again for P3 and a double podium for the red bull boys
Daniel had some more podiums as well at Spain, Canada, Spa and Singapore, 2017 was a very strong season for him
2018 China GP - very sexy overtakes as always that let him go on to win the race after so many issues with the car that weekend
2018 Monaco GP - daniel finally fucking won monaco, with a breaking down car, it’s amazing to watch
2018 Mexico Qualifying - my mans was a fast boy and got pole “i’m tripping major balls right now” but i wouldn’t watch the race if you’re a dan fan
2019 Italian GP - this season was just not that great but this was finally a good race for him
2020 German GP - this bitch finally got a podium after finishing 4th at so many races!!
2021 Italian GP - HE NEVER LEFT BITCHES
