That was completely different though. No one gifted Daniel a win, he earned it. Carlos got that win because they fucked Charles (it’s still a win though don’t get me wrong). Daniel was leading the entire race after an insane start. Lando was just asked to hold position before they crash and fuck away 40 points. It wasn’t a shit show of ‘target lap’ and ‘10 cars length’… it was just a strategy call to ensure a 1-2 which is what Ferrari probably should’ve done.

Luisa is his girlfriend. She’s not some marketing strategy, PR orchestra or anything. She wouldn’t be there if Lando didn’t ask her to be. Silverstone is always like that for British drivers, look at Daniel in Australia, Max in Zandvoort… the more popular a driver the crazier their home race and Lando’s currently leading the British favourites list. Lando’s a grown ass man, he doesn’t need his dad to manage his life or job. I don’t know why that constantly comes up, he has a whole marketing and PR team, as well as a managing company whose boss is sitting with him in that picture, behind him nowadays and his dad can just be his dad. I may not be Lando’s biggest fan right now but come on he’s not some little kid that needs to be guided by his dad

*whispers*

Carmen wasn't at the stage
Almost like George DNF’d and probably didn’t feel like it

Last I’ll say about this I promise. In Barcelona Lando was ill and didn’t even do media. What’s she gonna do, do media for him instead? I don’t even think it’s comparable. I don’t know why her being sweet to fans has to be some form of marketing strategy as if they’re a PR couple. I find that pretty disheartening tbh. She can’t win, she stays back when Lando’s ill and she’s ‘pissed at fans’, she helps fans get to Lando and she’s a ‘PR orchestra’. I don’t get it. Why is there such a need to make her look like a bad person?

I have no doubt that Lando is in charge of his own destiny and that's a good thing. He certainly isn't racing for Adam or under his control. I think it was a podcast he was on this year where he discussed his development years and how his father created a healthy safe place. Lando said itvwS. Significant investment and now it's paying off because of how well planned. To me it's that 'return' of the investment Lando said he felt like he owes to all his dad did to start up. So more a 'patnership' than a Max /Jos kind deal. But by no means is Lando not in charge or not thriving. He has control and that's key.

So I did preface this comment saying I wasn't trying to shit on Luisa or Lando. It was more of a difference I noticed in basic things from arrival to Quadrant's official F1 shoutout. None of this is bad and F1 is a serious marketing machine in general. Lando thrives in that. Luisa of course isn't a part of it but I think her being involved like this is wonderful for all. I was pretty shocked at how Lando mentioned how much the hate directly hurt Luisa, and this was definitely we are in this together as a team and she's not just a visitor. I don't think anything was fake. They both looked so damn happy all weekend. Point was I do think between her PR and Landos PR there was probably at least some discussion on that article. He's not 'protecting' her but he's making it clear she is an equal and part of him.

In a way it's a lot like how Valtteri and Alex are wirh Tiffany and Lily. Just how to be present and not fade into the background where hate can thrive... but I'm sure cinnamon will find a way. So yeah Luisa is winning and thriving Nd I look forward to more of it.
