“My first test with McLaren was great, we did so many laps out there. It has been really good to get that experience with the team. It is a great team and a great bunch of people. We went through the whole schedule beforehand when I was at the factory. We were trying to focus on the things that I think are important for me, in terms of my development, and for the team to get to know me. We ran through some different projects, it was mainly about driving style and getting to understand the tyre. The tyre we used is an academy tyre, so it is a little different, but it is a great one to learn on and improve my skills, and that is what we were really focused on. It was good to get a feeling for driving a race-winning car, as this car won in Monza. It was great gaining the knowledge of how to drive this car and how to get around in it quickly. The team were very open to my feedback and my opinions. When you work with a team like McLaren, who have a lot of experience in F1 and of winning championships, it is a good feeling when they value your input as a driver. I did the Pirelli test with Mercedes in Barcelona, so it is not like I was coming into this test super, super fresh. It is good for me to get as much driving in as possible, and that is why this day is an amazing opportunity for me. I wouldn’t say no to another test with McLaren.”

“I've really enjoyed my time with Lando, not only as teammates but as people and friends, we've had some great times together, and that friendship has blossomed. There's been a lot of great moments between us both on and off camera, and I'm sure you'll all have your own favourite. It started with us banging some drums together and making terrible music, and along the way, we've stuck some rubbish tattoos on each other and were let loose with space hoppers, although Lando might not have loved that so much!! We've had a lot of laughs, we've driven some fast and exciting road cars together and giggled our way through it all.”

Okay, apparently some drivers have commented on the Horner situation in the press conference... I haven't watched it yet, but I've read what they said and saw the disappointed reaction from fans online and I just feel beaten.
Cause no matter how hard we women fight for a place in this world and in this motorsport community, men will always be men.
Even the men that we look up to and want to watch every week, they are no different.
Susie almost lost her job over 1 rumour, but Horner will walk away unharmed (and even pitied by certain people) from evidence-based accusations. That just shows not only how F1 apparently works these days, but it's a painful mirror of our society.
These drivers that are "just here to do their job", yeah, so was she. How do you expect her to continue doing her job now? With all these reactions online and not a single drop of empathy?
These "noise and distractions" are what ruined a woman's life. And that was ruined by someone who walks in the same paddock as all the drivers' girlfriends, wives, daughters, nieces, sisters, and this week, even the entire F1 Academy paddock. They are women that are making a place for themselves in this sport, an example for all young girls, and this is how the drivers treat them.
They don't care because he was "always great to them" and that's just men being men unfortunately.
I'm sorry for this outburst, I just scrolled on Twitter when I woke up and felt so disappointed. I know it's not all drivers because we'll always have Lewis on our side. But that's not a suprise because Lewis is the only driver that truly cares about equality and diversity in the sport, and I admire him so much for that. Lewis is an ally, a brother, and a friend in a world full of men.

Formula 1 Car Naming Conventions
With F1 car launches in full force, I have been looking into why teams name their cars the way that they do. Each team has a different naming convention. Some of the naming conventions are easy to understand like RB19. Then there are the many Ferrari naming conventions (SF-23, F1-75, SF1000, etc).
So here are the current naming conventions for each team in order of car launch dates.
Haas
The 2024 Haas car is called the VF-24.
In an article for the 2016 Haas Car Launch, it was explained why they named the car the VF-16.
The first CNC machine manufactured by Haas Automation in 1988. It was unofficially named the VF-1, otherwise known as the Very First 1. For Formula 1, Haas kept the VF and changed the 1 for the last two digits of the year. VF-16 = 2016, VF-23 = 2023, etc.
Williams
The 2024 Williams car is called the FW46.
Every car by Williams has carried the FW prefix, with the first one being the FW06 in 1978. The FW in the name stands for the founder of the team, Sir Frank Williams. Despite the Williams family no longer being involved in the team, the current owners have kept the naming convention as a link to the storied history of Williams Racing.
If the car keeps the same chassis as the previous year, then a B is added to the end of the name to show that it is a B-Spec car (and on a few occasions there have been C-Spec cars).
Stake F1 Team Kick Sauber
The 2024 Sauber car is called the C44.
Sauber made its debut with the C12 in 1993 and has since used this naming convention except for the BMW Sauber years. But after BMW left, Sauber returned to using C and picked up the numbers where it would have been if the naming convention hadn't changed.
The C stands for Peter Sauber's wife Christiane. His first car was called the C1 and since then all Sauber cars (with the exception of the BMW Sauber cars) have used the C for Christiane.
Alpine
The 2024 Alpine car is called the A524.
Since Renault became Alpine in 2021, all of their cars have had the following naming formula: A + 5 + the last two digits of the year.
In January 2021, the team explained why the 2021 car was called the A521. The A is for Alpine. The 5 is for A500, which was a prototype for the 1975 F1 season. All of the cars since 2021, have followed this naming convention and have just changed the 21 to correspond with the current year.
Visa Cash App RB
The Visa Cash App RB 2024 car is called the VCARB 01.
There really isn't much about the team as of right now due to the rebrand changing up everything from the previous AlphaTauri stuff. However, VCARB is the acronym for the team name and this is the first car to be run under the rebrand, thus the 01.
Aston Martin
The Aston Martin 2024 car is called the AMR24.
Since 2021, Aston Martin has used the same naming convention: AMR + the last 2 digits of the current year. The AMR stands for Aston Martin Racing.
Ferrari
The 2024 Ferrari car is named the SF-24.
However, unlike the other teams, it is hard to predict what the Ferrari will be named. In recent years, there have been the F1-75, SF21, SF1000, SF90, F14-T, and 150º Italia just to list a few of the names.
For 2024, it is a simple naming convention that has been used in the past. SF = Scuderia Ferrari and then the last two digits of the year the car will be run.
RacingNews365 made a chart of every Ferrari car since 2000 and the meaning behind the name. For the most part, the formula for naming the car is either Ferrari/Scuderia Ferrari + year or important event commemoration.
Tumblr media
Ferrari also uses the dash inconsistently which doesn't really mean anything, but is just not the most aesthetically pleasing when looking at a list of all the car names.
Mercedes
The 2024 Mercedes car is called the W15.
All Mercedes cars have had a W in the car name, even the 1954 and 1955 cars. The 2010 Mercedes car was the W01 and since then the team has continued chronologically.
The W stands for Wagen which means car in German.
McLaren
The 2024 McLaren car is called the MCL38.
The numbers have been ascending since almost the beginning with a few B-Spec cars for the most part. However, the beginning letters have changed over the years. Since 2017, McLaren has used MCL. And just as it looks, MCL is short for McLaren.
The 2023 car didn't have the chronological number due to honoring McLaren's 60 years of history.
Red Bull
The 2024 Red Bull car is named the RB 20.
Since its first year, the Red Bull cars have been given the RB designation along with a chronologically ascending number. The RB as expected stands for Red Bull.
The RB 20 marks 20 seasons of Red Bull in Formula One.

disappointment isn’t even the word. me, and others, will hold these drivers accountable until they educate themselves on why the situation between christian horner and his female employee isn’t just “noise” or a “distraction”, but how it’s someone’s life. and that it can be greatly impacted by this situation.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
please please please spread these pictures on all your timelines. they want the “noise” to go away, but we’re just gonna make it louder.
to those of you who have experienced any kind of harassment or abuse, my heart is with you always. my messages are always open for those who need it.
keep sharing/posting. keep being angry. we won’t rest until something is done.
