every day is a privilege and today is a truly sad reminder of that.
this little boy in this picture hated you on sunday’s. but he loved to hate you, and you made it very difficult to hate and not become a fan when your passion for racing showed, when you would show up to his home town to race at his home tracks. he will be forever grateful for that.
from a fan, to a hater, to a competitor, to a teammate, and to even maybe a friend. i share that story because this little kid in the picture was not anywhere near the true number that you impacted for the better just through racing.
you will be deeply missed. both on the race track, but certainly off.
RIP. 🕊️
i just wanted to quickly thank you guys for all of the love so far on this tour and second wind. i’m still in disbelief that i get to do this for a living and don’t know how i got so lucky with all of you. i can’t wait for this tour and journey ahead. i love you so much 💙
SECOND WIND MUSIC VIDEO OUT NOW 💙 this was the most fun i’ve ever had making a music video. we shot the whole thing on an island. my only rule was there had to be a big red dinosaur walking the beach in it, don’t ask why. https://t.co/q0TwMo0KUn
From what news in Argentina are saying, it doesn’t even sound like he knew what he was doing. He was on multiple kinds of drugs, fainted in the lobby, and once he was in his room had a manic episode and employees couldn’t stop him. I don’t even think he knew he was doing to die when he jumped…
how come, when charles qualifies on pole + is faster + wins the race (i.e. bahrain 22) = nobody doubts his talent or some up with insane excuses
but when carlos qualifies on pole + is faster + wins the race (i.e. singapore 23) = we're still discussing what happened 8 months later
