Real talk we need to talk about how parasocial some f1 fans are. The people reacting to Charles’ engagement like it’s a family member getting married. The reaction some Lando fans had when he got a girlfriend. The Franco fans who sent death threats

Honestly you can probably find examples for most drivers and their fans

I ain’t denying that those fans are out there nor will I defend their behavior but there is at least the same number of fans if not more who are toxic the other way in retaliation, which is equally as harmful to the drivers and the fans. There is no middle ground in the online spaces anymore and it’s fucking sad and terrifying at the same time. But talking with fans irl is so much more calm than online because here it’s vicious. But I won’t defend death threats, that’s just fucking nuts.
