Laura K @cakeylaura.bsky.social · 18/07/2025I wish as well as a ‘next day’ delivery option there was also a ‘just have it sent by royal mail’ option. I’d happily pay a couple of quid more to receive my parcel by the only competent delivery service operating in my area. 021 0

Laura K @cakeylaura.bsky.social · 09/07/2025Probably exactly why he was chosen. This is Helmut and Jos’ circus now - presuming, of course, Max stays. 000 0
Laura K @cakeylaura.bsky.social · 09/07/2025Yeah, Jos’ machinations to increase his influence at Red Bull are definitely all a part of this calculation. Unlikely he’d have that same influence at Mercedes, where it’s very much Toto Wolff’s show. But perhaps the Verstappens think Red Bull is a lost cause now? It’s all very Game of Thrones. 120 0
Laura K @cakeylaura.bsky.social · 09/07/2025Or maybe it’s all a coincidence and some fresh allegations have surfaced. 110 0
Laura K @cakeylaura.bsky.social · 09/07/2025That they didn’t wait until the summer break is what has me thinking it’s a part of a move to stop Max triggering his exit clause. Either as part of an agreement with the Verstappens, or as a desperate gesture. 120 0
Laura K @cakeylaura.bsky.social · 09/07/2025I usually find F1 silly season fun, but for some reason this year it feels kinda seedy? No matter what, a very good driver is going to get screwed over. #f1 #formula1 000 0

Laura K @cakeylaura.bsky.social · 02/07/2025If you watch old vox pops compared to newer ones, it’s striking how much better people used to be at talking without saying ‘umm’ all the time.

Laura K @cakeylaura.bsky.social · 02/07/2025The whole ‘Mercedes thinks Max will guarantee them the title in 2026’ angle is quite funny if you consider the last time they were that cocky was just before the no-sidepods debacle. #F1 #Formula1 010 0

Laura K @cakeylaura.bsky.social · 29/06/2025The real sport couldn’t be more gross with product placement, so I’m not surprised.

Laura K @cakeylaura.bsky.social · 29/06/2025I’m so torn. Sounds like the racing scenes are great, but it’s a bit ridiculous if you know anything about F1.
