Really missing Garrett 😔

TRIXIE

The drivers for the final seats on the 2025 F1 grid have now been decided: Constructors' champions McLaren are staying with their 2024 lineup of Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri. After a whole career powered by Mercedes engines, Lewis Hamilton is moving to Ferrari to partner Charles Leclerc. Red Bull are keeping World Champion Max Verstappen, but have finally decided to replace under-performing Sergio Perez with Liam Lawson who drove for their junior team RB for the second half of 2024. Mercedes are keeping George Russell, and Lewis Hamilton's place is being taken by promoted Formula 2 driver Andrea Kimi Antonelli. Aston Martin are also keeping their 2024 lineup of Fernando Alonso and Lance Stroll. Alpine are keeping Pierre Gasly, but they're promoting reserve driver Jack Doohan to replace Esteban Ocon. Doohan previously raced in Formula 2. Esteban Ocon is moving from Alpine to Haas and will partner Oliver Bearman, another Formula 2 driver who got three F1 starts in 2024. Red Bull's junior team RB will use their full name Racing Bulls in 2025. They're keeping Yuki Tsunoda, and partnering him with Formula 2 runner-up Isack Hadjar after Liam Lawson got promoted to Red Bull. Williams are keeping Alex Albon, but Franco Colapinto (who replaced Logan Sargeant mid-season) is making way for Carlos Sainz who moves from Ferrari. Finally, Sauber are replacing Zhou Guanyu and Valtteri Bottas with Nico Hulkenberg from Haas and 2024 Formula 2 champion Gabriel Bortoleto. This will be the team's last year being known as Sauber before they rebrand as Audi in 2026. Valtteri Bottas is returning to his former team Mercedes as their reserve driver.

I tend to hop around interests pretty easily but I too hope this is one of the ones that sticks for me. I get connected to most shows/movies I watch, and this is the second show I've felt connected to more than one character. I usually just pick my favorite at the start and stick with it, like I did with Bo, and he obviously still is my favorite, but I also found myself drifting towards Daisy, I still haven't figured out why. I think it may be because she's the only young woman in the show (consistent. The last time I had a family/community was when I was in JROTC before I dropped out, so if this really is as connected as you say, it'll be nice to have people to talk to again, even if they're all 4 times my age😄😄
