those 2011 pics remind me of hard the McLaren race suits used to fuck, I loved the vodafone era suits so much 🥹

YES AGREED!!! I love the Vodafone McLaren livery, literally peak!!!!!

Thank you for sending this ask bcs now I get to talk about 2011 in particular. There were these special Saturday race suits and they're all so pretty!!! Hugo Boss did a design competition to celebrate their partnership with McLaren and different artists made different designs for the Quali days. They're so beautiful 🥹🥹 Why can't they do anything fun like that now???? I digress, I went through all the Qualis and compiled pics of all of them!!

#which is your guys' fav? #mine would prob have to be Hungary. Japan. India. Malaysia. #i think all the Asian ones are soooooo cool with all the colors and animal motifs!! #anyways so right anon!!! vodafone mclaren was peak livery and designs!!! chrome/red >>>>>>>>> papaya #anyways hahaha prob not what you expected my reply to be #but this has been stuck in my brain for a while #i remember seeing the Hungary one at some point and thinking it was incredibly beautiful but having no idea the context behind it #and your ask made me finally go to research it #this was super fun to research bcs i didnt realize there was so many!!! literally 18 different racesuits.....so fucking sick..... #im obsessed with race overalls in general like theyre just so cool to me so to see all these different ones is just unbelievebly sick to me #one day ill make a post abt race suit details that make me feral(e.g. when suits used to have race belts & the FIA badge on the neck) #ive downloaded a lot of 2011 pics bcs of sebson but never rly thought any deeper abt why there were so many race suit varieties #the hungary one won the contest(very rightfully) so Jense wore it for the Brazil GP in entirety!! #i also think the Germany won as well bcs Lewis was wearing it for the Brazil gp? but im super biased towards the hungarian one haha #f1 lore??? i guess????? idk if this is obscure or not! obscure to me at least!! i mean that boss yt vid has only 2k views lmao #f1 #formula 1 #lewis hamilton #jenson button #mclaren #vodafone mclaren #formula oe #we do a little bit of f1 #catie.asks. #f1 lore

A lot of fans said he’s better looking and taller in person, is it true? Also what was his perfume like?

Okay Lando is definitely a bit taller in person. Maybe I'm just short (I know I am), but like he just seems taller irl than he does on the screen bc I've seen him a bajillion times but when he was right there in front of me, I was like "holy shit why is he this tall???" It's not that he's super tall, it's just that I didn't expect him to be that tall. He had to fucking bend down to sign my shirt, which was like, yeah okay I really am too short.

As for the better looking part, I mean he always looks good so idk what to say to that. Imo he looks pretty much the same irl as on screen (amazing). And his scent, I don't really think he had any cologne or perfume on? Maybe there were just too many people around me, but I didn't really smell anything on him, so I guess the answer is just clean lol

But he was like super patient too despite all of us there, like I know he didn't get to everyone (he couldn't with how many people there), but he went kinda slow down the group, so most people in the first or second row had a good shot of getting something signed or getting a picture, which was so nice of him.

Someone actually brought stroopwafles though 😭 when he first came out, he was talking with his engineers, but someone shouted "LANDO WE HAVE STROOPWAFLES" and THEN he looked up and started grinning 😂 and he went to that person's side of the line first LMFAO

#still going insane over this #it feels like a fever dream fr #i have like post-meeting-Lando-Norris depression or whatever #or I'm just getting sick #no nvm I'm definitely sick #probably from that one guy behind me who fucking coughed #when we were all sandwiched together #it's his fault #idc tho it's all worth it to meet Lando #that's going to be my biggest flex in life honestly #he was so nice wtfff 😭 #im sad I didn't get to give him anything #i wanted to give him like a birthday gift but there was no time #lando norris #f1 #mclaren

WIP of a Harry Potter x Maxiel one-shot that has somehow escaped the uni essay stress which has sadly displaced all the space in my mind usually given to writing 🥲🥲

-

"Are you -" are you well? Is what Max wanted to ask. Are you eating, are you sleeping?

It feels stupid, though, to ask such things in war. Like the shadow of childhood stretching into the present.

Daniel opens his eyes, gaze finding Max. The action is excruciatingly slow, as if the movement alone is exhausting.

"Am I what, Maxy?" He says. He tries for a smile, the facsimile paling to the memories that linger in Max's dreams.

"Are you sure about this?" Max forces out. Daniel huffs something near a laugh, kicking back off the wall he'd been leaning on.

#daniel is a slytherin and i will be taking no further comments on this #max is more difficult #hufflepuff??? #gryffindor???? #gryffindor have the whole lion and golden boy going for it #but hufflepuff has the softness and the loyalty #daniel is all slytherin with his RB to Renault to McLaren and leaving a train of heartbroken and bitter managers behind him #because he wants MORE and FAME and SUCCESS #and Max is all like :))) Red Bull is my team and i am happy with them :)))) #so... maybe more hufflepuff than Gryffindor??? #anyway #in the AU they both were quidditch captains and should've been enemies but somehow were both rivals and friends #and now it is the Wizarding War and Max is Good and an Auror and helping Dumbledore #and Daniel somehow followed his Slytherin friends and ended up as a death eater #but as a double spy??? #and Max has all these feelings because he's Daniel's man of contact #and can see how exhausted he is and how drained and how dangerous this all is #but at the same time can't work out if he trusts Daniel and whose side Daniel is really on #and it's all love over duty and heart over mind #my fic

I’m now kind of laughing about the pictures of Daniel today with ZB, knowing this was going to drop today. Like I know he was being genuine because he��s too nice but I like to think it was in the back of his mind.

I mean, as much as we say he’s too nice to stop and interact with that team, he’s a professional in a professional environment. So he kind of has to do what he needs to do irrespective of how he might personally feel towards them

#also unrelated #just wanted to reiterate I don’t believe mclaren actively sabotaged Daniel or anything #because sure this is a high stakes sport where it means millions between p4 and p5 in the standings #and we’ve all agreed that yes Daniel never managed to gel with their car but you have to agree that THEY gave up on solving his problems way #before Daniel gave up on the relationship and they pretty much sat back while Daniel chased his own tail trying to determine what’s wrong #and #Daniel specifically told them what he needed to get used to the car and Andreas and co went around at the end of 2021 saying #Daniel’s feedback has been essential to make us understand the limitations of our car and we’ll take what he said in consideration #only for them to admit at the end of last year that to implement Daniel’s suggestions meant changing too much of their car’s dna and #that wasn’t something they were interested to do #and then they showed up in Bahrain this year with the most godawful car and no longer had a convenient scapegoat #and had to go and redid their whole car and copied the rb philosophy which they could have done at #the time daniel told them to #but no

q1's 20 mins and somehow mclaren strategised and unlucked out enough to set not one competitive lap with norris????

#sergeant had his luck not lucked out too rip along with a stamp of bot slowing under yellows?? rip2x #mclaren f1 #lando norris #mexico gp 2023 #f1 #formula 1 #for the record tho i didnt think the mediums were like a superemely bad idea or anything. it just did not work out for them the same as it #did for merc which is a pity but i kinda get where they came from #went in punchy and ballsy #did not work out at all however

2005 Chinese Grand Prix - Yellow Flag moments that made me laugh:

#this is so specific and random but these made me die laughing so i needed to share them #the first yellow was bcs 'drain cover damage' which is just so unexpectedly hilarious #Brundle and james allan were like ????? tf is this yellow flag ??? #im crying at the 2nd gif where the marshal is 'dancing' on the kerb to fix it #theyre like 'the marshal appears to be uhhh dancing on the damage...very technical...' #morbidly hilarious that mclaren's chances at wcc were lowkey ruined bcs of a fucking drain cover 😭 #to me this race is the australia 2023 of 2005. not as extreme but like so chaotic #but its so wild that aus 23 got red flagged 3x yet this race only got SC even though there were literally people on the track w cars #like in that last gif in the full clip the camera zooms out and the cars are *really* not at all that far away from them #interesting to see how far safety measures have come since then #2005 chinese gp #2005 chinese grand prix #f1 #formula 1 #formula one #we do a little bit of f1

last year was literally so wild what with the alpine press release n then all the journos being like yeh mark is asleep cos he’s in aus and there’s a high chance oscar is too and then oscar tweets the most iconic tweet ever n it was just all a bit ???

and then exactly a month later mclaren announced oscar and the legal battle commenced

#i can’t remember wasn’t it like everyone thought mark was in aus #but then it turned out he wasn’t in au #*aus #either way it was so wild #also i still can’t believe to this day ppl will say yeh alpine was in the right #n as someone who did contract law it was vvvv funny to see it all #n all the internet lawyers being welll mclaren are wrong #n it was like no they weren’t cos oscar n mark never signed anothing #*anything #and then it was revealed that they was being bare dodgy w mark #n not sending him the correct stuff or they would n it would be wrong or late #and everyone was convinced mark n oscar were the worst people ever

[papayafiles]
