LOVED the F1 bits, especially when the narrator's/author's opinions aligned with mine(fuck street circuits). also really fun was trying to guess which characters were inspired by real life people (jumpscare when eric whom i saw as a lewis insert was white in an insta pic).
absolutely hated the henri/luca rivalry that straight up sounded incestuous at points. ew. "Watching her in my jacket as her brother looked on in frustration, it riled something up in me." brooooo stop that shit you're weird.
i don't think there was much character development? we don't really see luca as the playboy he supposedly is like at all. but i liked how conflincts were always talked about quickly and resolved in 2 chapters at most. (<-despises miscommunication trope)
