Ok everybody, it's August 8th #f1
August 8, 2025 at 5:08 AM
I'm genuinely confused by all the F1 fans upset with McLaren saying they're only winning because they have a rocket ship this season.

Like yes.. that's how Formula 1 works

F1 is currently doing its summer Tyre test, so I thought I’d share what the winter test looks like in Abu Dhabi!

It’s my favorite session of the year to work! #f1 #motorsport

"Lewis, Box to overtake seven cars" - Ferrari today (probably) #F1

George never struck me as a guy who relishes in these dynamics. He’s helped other drivers secure seats and he’ll have institutional support if Merc decides not renew his contract

Most people don’t have that, so it’s not the worst situation. But I can hardly imagine that’s any consolation Good luck

Does George deserve to keep his seat at Mercedes? Well judging from performance, he absolutely does

But with Merc rumored to have the best engine going into the 2026 regulations, it’s no surprise a 4-time World Champion is interested in moving garages— possibly on the condition that George must go.
July 23, 2025 at 6:13 PM
Think it’s unfair George Russell would likely lose his seat at Mercedes if Max joins the team?

Well, welcome to F1. He wouldn’t be the first guy to experience a tough break

Ask Carlos Sainz, or ask me. Performance doesn’t always get you ahead in this sport, especially if you bruise someone’s ego 🧵

Formula 1 fans suddenly becoming OSINT experts the moment they realize it might give them an edge on predicting driver contracts. #f1 #maxverstappen #mercedes

It's official: Imola is off the 2026 calendar, Barcelona stays on for one more year

Canada now conflicts with the Indy 500 instead of Le Mans

This is the closest we've gotten to a fully regionalized calendar thusfar with Miami and Montreal finally grouped together.

It's worth noting: If Max Verstappen remains in fourth place or better in the championship by the end of the Austrian GP in late June: Red Bull has a contractual right to retain him for the 2026 season.

That'll mean no exit clause departure to Merc or Aston. #F1 #maxverstappen #redbull

It's also worth noting that sometimes upgrades backfire.

Aston Martin's remarkable start to the 2023 season ended at this stage of the season

Red Bull's development woes date back to a flawed upgrade package in Spain 2023 as well that saw Sergio Perez fall off. #motorsport

Traditionally the Spanish Grand Prix is where we see teams drop major upgrade packages.

From there they evaluate performance and decide whether they want to prioritize a championship points fight or focus on development for next year. #spaingp #barcelona

Crucial to note with the Spanish Grand Prix coming up in F1 that Tech Directive 18 takes affect, limiting the usage of flexi-wings

Red Bull is hoping this will close the gap with McLaren. Ferrari already announced they're delaying major upgrades until some point in June #f1

Just dropping some Lando photos I took, last Sunday was his first win since Australia, it's been awhile.

He's currently 2nd in the championship and only behind Oscar Pisatri by 3 points. It's close! #f1 #landonorris @mclaren

Seriously I kinda do miss Nicholas Latifi keeping everyone on their toes here. He was fun to shoot.

I'm glad I caught him at Suzuka in 2022.

I've had enough, this is how you fix Monaco.

Unleash the goat #f1
May 27, 2025 at 8:21 PM
Happy birthday Franco Colapinto! Welcome back to the grid, looking forward to seeing your progress in #F1
May 27, 2025 at 6:53 PM
For all the griping on how we should remove Monaco for the lack of #F1 overtaking

Why toss out a crown jewel? People come to F1 because they're captivated about the Monaco Grand Prix

If you have a problem, change your car. Formula E lands over 100 overtakes every year here #f1 #motorsport
May 26, 2025 at 9:35 PM
Well, that was an amazing Sunday in Motorsport

-Lando Norris set the all-time track record at Monaco

-A wild Indy 500 with low track temps causing chaos and Alex Palou getting his first 500 win

-Kyle Larson double DNF at Indy and NASCAR

-Ross Chastain winning the Coca Cola 600

No, the Monaco Circuit isn't boring. The current generation of F1 cars are, they're just too large.

Monaco is a crown jewel race of Formula 1 for a good reason, if the racing here sucks, it's the technical regulations that are in poor shape. #f1 #monaco #monacogp
May 25, 2025 at 5:15 PM
Indy 500: Robert Shwartzman, Takuma Sato, Pato O'Ward on the front row.

All guys I've shot at #f1 😂 #Indy500
May 25, 2025 at 4:49 PM
Just a reminder, with Kyle Larson attempting to race both the Indy 500 and Coca Cola 600 in NASCAR today-- he can only afford a 40 minute delay in his itinerary in order to make it to Charlotte. #nascar #indy500
May 25, 2025 at 4:40 PM
If Formula 1 truly wants to fix its crown jewel race in Monaco, it needs to make the cars smaller again. Formula E had 197 overtakes here last year.

Yea so the two stop rule for the Monaco Grand Prix completely backfired-- it made it harder to overtake with teams incentivized to slow down their trailing driver to create a pit window for their leading driver.

If F1 truly wants to fix their crown jewel race in Monaco, the cars need to be smaller.
