"I think we maximized our result today. Obviously, not using the good tyres for quali put us on the back foot for today's race, but we knew it, and overall, we did a good job... The only thing that is crazy is the pace difference between us, and now the McLaren, and the Red Bull..."
Taylor Swift fan dies after feeling unwell during concert in Rio
Ana Clara Benevides, 23, fainted and was taken to a hospital near Engenhão, but did not survive
Ana Clara Benevides, 23, died on Friday (17th) night after feeling unwell during the concert of singer Taylor Swift, who debuted her tour in Brazil at the Nilton Santos stadium in Rio de Janeiro, with an audience of over 60,000 people.
The information was confirmed to Folha by Estela Benevides, Benevides' cousin, who received the news over the phone from the doctor who tried to resuscitate her. The young woman is originally from Pedro Gomes, Mato Grosso do Sul, but she grew up in Sonora, within the same state. She was sent to the Salgado Filho Municipal Hospital after fainting and being attended to at the stadium. The cause of death was cardiac arrest.
Benevides was at the front row and ended up fainting on the spot. According to nurse Thiago Fernandes, 22, a friend of Benevides, she was resuscitated at the stadium for about 40 minutes. On the way to the hospital, she had a second cardiac arrest.
Benevides arrived around 8 p.m., was attended to, but did not survive, dying shortly after at the hospital near Engenhão, in Méier, in the northern zone of the capital of Rio de Janeiro.
The heat index at the venue reached 60ºC and unofficially, firefighters counted a thousand faintings during the event. Fans complained on social media about the prohibition of bringing water bottles into the stadium, considering the intense heat.

If I may add: the venue closed its vents. During a gods-damned heat wave.
Reconstruction ended in the US in 1877, and during that year, as well as the years immediately post civil war, there was an especially huge push for black people to find loved ones who were sold off the other states or countries during slavery, especially those who had children fathered by their masters as their masters were the ones who sold off the child/ren or had the best information on finding them. People would send letters, put ads in newspapers, even take trips themselves to go find loved ones that they had lost due to the scurge that was slavery. And I keep thinking about Louis du pointe du lac, sending all those messages to find his daughter that was sent out of state by her white father
“Maybe one of my best races that I’ve ever done. At least that I remember. It was awesome and... one of the races that I would say I’m the most proud of, given the adversity that we experienced during the weekend and I think this just proves that you should never ever give up.”

"No, I lost the hydraulics! I lost the hydraulics! Why the fuck am I so unlucky? Why the fuck am I so unlucky? No hydraulic inside the car. Everything became super... Ugh, can I- I'll try to start again."
"The hydraulics came back. What should I do, guys? For fuck's sake, still... Engine switched off. Why am I so unlucky? Oh my god, Oh my fucking god. Oh my fucking god..."
