How many times has Rob said his career moves were “entirely unrelated” to Felipe’s now? Moving to Ferrari, moving from Ferrari to Williams, then scaling back his track work at Williams when Felipe retires – come on now, I’m not much for soulmate AUs but there’s fodder there surely? Something got intertwined somewhere. 

Honestly, I don’t think Rob cares about F1 much anymore, aside from the fact it pays the bills. He’s made so many comments about lack of friendship, the Paddock etc recently, not to mention that a smart guy like him can probably clearly see that the whole sport is going down the shiter. I would not be entirely surprised to see him ~elsewhere~ at some point in the future.

That’s my take on everything anyway, for what it’s worth.

Good point. FE is drawing a lot of manufacturers and talent, and I’m REALLY hoping that’s where Felipe ends up – it’d give him a nice few months’ break and be pretty low-commitment timewise – so I’m just going to be over here imagining a nice little electric reunion.

Part of what I’ll miss is he cracks me up at times, he just says the daftest things and he doesn’t know he’s saying it. He’ll think he’s saying something really profound and I will just find it really, really amusing. And he’s like ‘What are you laughing at?!’ – ‘I’m laughing at you!’

It took me four hours to get to sleep last night so I used that time productively by thinking about that fic I wanted to write inspired by the Ibiza holiday story etc and it all seemed great at 5am but now thinking about it is like a jab in my very soul ;-;
