I believe it.

A cat named Max watching TV. On the TV is Max Verstappen going into the barrier in the Australian Grand Prix qualifying session.

Max watching Max. I don’t think he can believe it either.

I still can’t believe that just happened.

Santa please give Charles Leclerc a 2026 World Driver’s Championship i beg. it’s all i want.

one final message from Charles in 2025 ♥️

My delulu brain: Lando won the championship therefore Charles will win it next year. He said “Lando WE can be world champion” so half of it is complete.
2026 is our year.

And just to make my day worse, I just saw a cyber truck.

It’s the only thing keeping me from crashing out.

Okay but the real question is, what will Zohran Mamdani do about Lando Norris being world champion?

FREEDOM FROM THE SF-25!!!

Charles Leclerc with the fastest lap of the 2025 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix: 1:26.725.

fastest lap in a Chevy Cobalt

Universe, I am begging you, in 12 months time let Charles Leclerc be involved in a title decider/have won his first title already (delete as applicable)

Having to sit there those last few laps with the doomed knowledge that Lando would become champion just felt like bugs crawling up my body and no way to stop the inevitible.

Bryan throwing out "another good lap" praise meme.

it is time

Norris heading for the title obviously but Verstappen and Leclerc showing why they're the top 2 drivers in the F1 world right now. A couple of stunning performances.

A real shame the last two tracks are pretty lifeless, soulless ones, too.

THE LAST F1 RACE OF THE 2025 SEASON 🎉🤢🤡

nico: "lando has done exactly what he needed to"

..bare minimum?

Just not impressed by this imminent Lando WDC at all.

That team had the most dominant car BY FAR this season and taking all the way to Abu Dhabi to decide the championship is just an indictment on McLaren’s incompetence.

EMBARRASSING.

Most of these drivers aren't particularly good people and I don't think highly of Max either but Lando Norris has defended men who harass women at races, started the season mocking drivers who crashed under SCs when that has caused people to die, mocked his teammate who was struggling mentally, 1/2

BIG LECLERC PLEASE

Why is the formation lap 3 hours long? Be formed already.

ICE raids are cruel, inhumane, and do nothing to serve public safety.

My responsibility is to be the mayor to each and every person that calls this city their home. That includes millions of immigrants— of which I am one.

Charles in every interview:

this car sucks (in french)
this car sucks (in italian)
this car sucks (in english)

Ideal scenario in Abu Dhabi
Max P1 (421)
Oscar P2 (410)
Norris P10 (409)

That would mean that Max wins the championship, Oscar is P2, and Norris is P3.

Max is that guy. He has been that guy. He will continue to be that guy. Hats off to him.

Max, you're the best to ever do it. Period.

Leclerc: "Generally, a very optimistic person, but I struggle to find any optimism for tomorrow."

You know the car is bad bad then

lando norris is the feel good story about a millionaire's son with mediocre talent getting a rocket ship to win a WDC and still has somehow not run away with the title.
