This Is What You Stole From Me

it's not even about logan it's about the fact that teams keep seeing under-experienced drivers under-performing and deciding to replace them with drivers with even less experience as if that's gonna fix anything

James Vowles becoming the most toxic team principal wasn't on my bingo card for this season.

F1 is a big money business and demands success from people sure but the way Williams have treated Logan has been absolute dogshit and no employee deserves that

Williams Racing prematurely promoted Logan Sargeant to Formula 1 because they wanted Nicholas Latifi gone.

Now Williams Racing is prematurely promoting Franco Colapinto to Formula 1 because they wanted Logan Sargeant gone.

The days of Williams being able to paint the team as one big happy family are long gone. It’s a toxic cycle of failing their own academy drivers … especially since Franco will only have the opportunity to drive 9 races for the team and then both of their full-time seat will be filled until 2026 at earliest.

Maybe it’s just easy for me to say this because I’m sitting on my couch and not in the paddock, but the mismanagement of the team lately has been astonishing.

and with that, the 2024 season comes to an end

F1 Update

I saw the news of Logan Sargeant being dropped from Williams for the remainder of the season and I'm absolutely devastated. Logan was and will always be my favorite driver even though he's gone. I will continue to make fanfics about him in the future but I'm sad to hear that they are no longer keeping him as a driver for them.

We love you Logan!

hope we all know that this isn't just any paul aron who we're gonna see as the f1 reserve next year…

it's the paul who's been in love with racing ever since he was a baby, who wanted to race just so he could grow up to be like his brother. the paul who travels around to support his brother or his team even when he's got a weekend off.

it's the paul who finished third in his first-ever season of formula 3, who was in the fight for the title up until the last round (and would've had a much better chance if not for the team's mistake in spa).

it's the paul who fit so well into the mercedes profile, who expressed his gratitude to the team and their work whenever he could, who fought so hard to make them proud.

it's the paul who was always going to be put behind kimi in toto wolff's eyes, no matter how well he performed.

it's the paul who had to leave everything he had grown up with, his team of many years, his close friends and staff members, and move on. who had to let go of everything he knew from before and go alone.

it's the paul who went into his first full formula 2 season with hopes and dreams instead of expectations; who said he was there to learn and grow, and then he would see where that would take him.

it's the paul who failed to get into the top ten in qualifying for the first round of the 2024 season, but still managed a p5 in the sprint – and a podium in the feature, despite a time penalty, and got to celebrate in parc ferme with his brother and trainer.

it's the paul who, as a rookie, went onto the podium every round in the first seven rounds. who's been consistent like few others in a series (and team) known for its inconsistency.

it's the paul who never forgets to credit and thank his family, team and trainer, acknowledging that every success is thanks to a team effort – and that even if things don't go as well as planned, the team still did their best to help him out.

it's the paul who thanks to his determination and hard work managed to impress his f2 team principal, oliver oakes, so much that the latter thought "i need this guy on my team" when he became the alpine f1 principal.

it's the paul who fights every setback with an attitude of revenge instead of hopelessness; despite everything he's been through, he never gives up. he wants to prove everyone wrong.

it's the paul who turns every heartbreak – from mechanical failures to tactical missteps – into fuel for his fire. it's the paul who reminds us that success isn't a straight line; success is the product of unwavering determination and the courage to keep going.

it's a paul who's learned so much, grown so much stronger; who's been through so many hardships and said "you know what? i'm going to learn from this and come out stronger on the other side", and that's exactly what he did. i'm so proud to have gotten to follow him on this journey, and i can't wait to see where this next chapter of his life will lead him.

our paul aron. 💙
