All the real life racing drivers who have appeared in the cars movies: A thread 🧵

RT @fs27mcqueen: oops sorry for forgetting to post i overslept massively today 💀

cant be scared of dying now because of woke

ew too much logano

@twatapes it’s all a marketing stunt. racing at tracks like vegas isn’t gonna help them develop their talent

@ItsLilMobin yh she’s in gb3 for this year, let’s see how it goes…

@10IsRed i think it’s best they compete against the boys, there isn’t a need for segregation. fund girls from karting, help them gain that experience to race and then help them get a seat at a team like prema in italian f4

@milanwyddd she shoulda never have been hired in the first place tbh. mclaren only hired her cause they had to support a f1a driver, and they choose her for marketing. this isn’t helping real change happen, it’s all a pr stunt

@yoongichiii alpine also look good with abbi, she’s had their suppourt since like 2022. what irks me abt ferrari is that maya did a full freca season in 2023, and has taken a step back now by doing f1a. in the long run i don’t see how this is gonna help her

@4hp_89 unfortunately it has to be f4 cars given it is an entry level series. it is meant to be the first step up from karting in comparison it would be better if the money was used to fund scholarships for the top girls to race in Italian F4/FRECA/GB4 and they can then progress to f3

@4hp_89 With Pulling and Weug, they’ve had F1 support before F1A. What happens with Pin will be interesting Forcing F1 teams to support drivers doesn’t help, as they choose who’s best for marketing

@theIeafsheep teams shouldn’t be forced to hire them, cause it rlly isn’t helping if they aren’t staying in the academies in the long run. it’s all marketing, and i can sorta see how that can help but staying in the acamdy is much more beneficial

@CHECTiFi concerning how so many people don’t understand basic economics 😭

RT @Ace12Adam: Embarrassing frustrating performance Chelsea. Done fuck all today. Palmer can’t save us all the time. He hasn’t Been good to…

@flipperino_ fr, they are picking drivers for the PR instead of talent. whilst i understand the aim of f1a, 2 seasons in it still feels very gimmicky with a whole bunch of issues. i don't see how it is currently gonna help women progress

@formulawah im kinda annoyed about how weug is still in f1a tbh given she was doing freca full time. would be nice if she can at least do some freca races this year

@formulawah they need to be hiring them based on talent, not because they have to. i do hope pin can keep her merc links, and that she can use them in sportscars

@dINDYmals indy500 trip 👀

@FormulaEBengal green day

RT @fs27mcqueen: Tough start to the weekend, but we will build on it 👊

why is autism becoming a scapegoat for being a shit person. autism isn’t an excuse for being a nazi. people need to take accountability for their actions rather than blaming it on autism. i am autistic. doesn’t mean it makes me a fucking nazi
