when these drivers start venturing out into other industries and expressing themselves however they want, i need more people to acknowledge who paved the way for them. who put up with ridicule and micro aggressions for years so that your faves can (rightfully) attend red carpet events and have clothing lines
never not thinking about ✨the helmet✨ as a vessel of showing affection in racing. mechanics kissing their drivers helmet. drivers giving each other pats on the helmet in lieu of ruffling hair. cradling the side of the helmet as if it were a cheek. opening each others visor.
the helmet both protecting its wearer and some of their most vulnerable spots, but also bearing the sign of individuality they bring to the sport,, the helmet portraying the essence of a driver, their individuality, their spirit, the touch to the helmet so soul-baring.
the helmet as a symbol of love and devotion, isolating and protecting its wearer while also forging an intense connection to the environment, eyes through the visor at the height of concentration containing every emotion on the spectrum from the highest high to the lowest low... the swapping of helmets as a deep sign of respect, i trust you to keep my battle-worn armour safe as i will yours,
Lewis will never be out of question for a championship fight. We must not forget what he has achieved in the sport and he still has it. We've seen it plenty of times last year. Lewis will be there - Charles Leclerc
