george realizing that his team is never gonna be behind him and he'll still defend them like crazy (is this figuratively or literally? who knows, could be both)
they can chat all they want about the WCC, wanting to get the most points for the team and letting the drivers have a fair fight or whatever.
the reality is that they were ready to take P2 and P5 if it meant ensuring P2 for #12. nobody on that team gaf where gr was gonna finish
now that i've thought about it i CAN get over george letting kimi through but i CANNOT get over bono telling kimi to NOT help george with overtake + toto saying he didn't think it was possible for george to defend against the ferraris. like fully throwing george to the wolves.
Stella said that Oscar was pitted because they wanted to cover George.
Charles mentioned that he raced extra laps to push George.
Lewis trying hard to get ahead of George.
Meanwhile George:
All this time I thought newer tires gave you a better chance at defending, but Mercedes showed me today that I was very wrong. Apparently, you swap the cars and let the driver on older tires defend against drivers on newer tires.#OK
12s complaining that kimi is going to get backlash over merc's team orders lol they're SO close to figuring out that toto is doing everything in his powers to hand his baby boy the wdc, including throwing george under the bus.
if mercedes had decided they need to prioritise the championship leader then okay cool. it’d be a decision i’d disagree with, but that’s their prerogative and i’d still believe in george to win regardless. but don’t lie and say you only care about the wcc if that isn’t the truth
