THREAD 🧵 On this International Women’s Day, I’d like to take this opportunity to talk to you about something. I’ve discovered something incredible about Alba (Larsen) At the age of 15, Alba set up Girls International Racing Lab, a community aimed at helping young girls discover motorsport. Through this community, Alba organises events such as go-karting sessions, meet-ups…. By organising races, meet-ups and mentoring sessions with Alba and other role models, the initiative has already engaged over 400 girls and young women in Denmark alone & Alba’s goal for this year is to reach 15,000 girls around the world. In 2025, Alba received the FIA Women in Motorsport Award, as they recognised the impact G.I.R.L. was already having and the pathway it was starting to open up for young girls looking at racing for the first time follow the thread

Lewis Hamilton via IG : « The past three years of Israel’s genocide in Gaza is appalling. It’s an injustice for people to being denied their freedom, their safety and their dignity. No human being should be treated as though their life matters less. I saw walls stretching for miles, built to keep them in. Standing there, outside what felt like an open-air prison, all I could think about was getting in to help. At Rafah border, I saw food trucks lined up ready to go, but they’re regularly not allowed in or face major delays. The first driver in line that I spoke to had already been waiting over 12 hours. At the nearby logistics centre, I saw the hard work of the @/egyptianredcrescent, but I also saw what gets rejected for crazy reasons. Sleeping bags, first aid kits, medical equipment, wheelchairs, even footballs for kids. Israel needs to fulfil its obligations under the ceasefire and let the aid trucks in. No excuse. I know so many people feel that same helplessness. That same need to do something rather than just watch. I don’t want us to get used to their suffering. I don’t want us to look away. » 👏👏👏👏👏

It wasn’t even a joke 😭😭😭 #F1 #BrazilGP 🇧🇷

forever free palestine 🇵🇸 ❤️

Fred Vasseur : « It was probably a matter of tyre pressures. As with every decision, there are positives and negatives: it worked very well at the start, but a little less so in the middle of the stint. But you can’t have a first lap like that and then not pay the price for it. We struggled a bit with the tyres throughout the race. We were missing something, things didn’t go exactly as we wanted, and we can certainly do better. Charles was struggling at the start, then he was very fast during the middle stint, and once again towards the end of the race he was catching up. There were some ups and downs for both drivers. We were far too inconsistent throughout the race. I have to say that whenever we lacked pace, it was more a matter of mistakes because the car was very difficult to drive. The fluctuations in performance stemmed from that. It’s also true that Charles was very fast towards the end of his stint on the old Softs. We now know why, but it’s a real shame because the potential is probably there. However, it was difficult for us to put everything together throughout the race. Las Vegas? It will be extreme in terms of conditions, as usual, because temperatures will be around five degrees Celsius, which means we'll be facing the opposite situation to what we've experienced throughout the season. Throughout the championship, we've been trying to cool the tyres down, whereas there we'll have to warm them up, so we'll be dealing with the complete opposite situation all the time. » #F1 #BrazilGP 🇧🇷

Nothing here btw 😂👍 #F1 #BrazilGP 🇧🇷

🔴 OFFICIAL: 5 SEC PENALTY FOR CHARLES. SO P8 FOR CHARLES. AS ALWAYS, A JOKE 😂😂 #F1 #BrazilGP 🇧🇷

A little recap of Charles’ race. His overtake on Gasly on softs, with the track still wet, is just incredible. #F1 #BrazilGP 🇧🇷

The entire battle from Charles’ onboard. This is just so fucking beautiful. His intelligence through turns 1, 2 and 3. WOW. #F1 #BrazilGP 🇧🇷

The move that saved Charles’ race. While the team tells him to box for softs, despite him having excellent pace on his used softs, he refuses and stays out. One lap later, Ferrari realises its mistake and decides to keep him out. #F1 #BrazilGP 🇧🇷

Liam Lawson : « I think it was his wing that hit my tyre. So I think we got really lucky. I feel like it was exactly like his GP2 move to Abu Dhabi, like on [Alex] Albon years ago. He did the same kind of thing, so maybe it’s his specialty. I don’t know if it’s legal or not. We’ll obviously go and review it, but it was a good battle overall. » #F1 #BrazilGP 🇧🇷

For those who are still coming up with theories, here’s the reason why Lewis didn’t pit: he simply missed the pit entry. Don’t forget that there’s a 3–5 second delay between the real radio and when we hear it. #F1 #BrazilGP 🇧🇷

Charles: “Yeah, it was pretty intense with Liam. Obviously, we know that in the wet, it's a little bit more slippery, so you can afford to lean a little bit more on the car next to you, which is what I did with Liam, otherwise it would have been difficult. I don't know what was going on either, we'll have to look into it with the team, but I had the feeling that I was losing… against the Alpines, I was losing eight tenths on the straights, something like that, which is quite impressive. I don't know if there was also something wrong with the engine, but in the corners it wasn't too bad. On the straights, though, we were losing a huge amount of time, so that's something we'll have to look into. I knew that was really my only opportunity (Liam), and I had to take it, which I did. Then I used the Boost well, and this time I managed to stay more or less alongside him. But yeah, I was happy at least to have taken my opportunity when I had it with Liam.” #F1 #BrazilGP

Charles didn’t get anything when he had a similar incident with Hulk in Malaysia, right? #F1 #BrazilGP
