not to f1 on main but the fact that nico rosberg and lewis hamilton met as a rich white son of a f1 world champ living in monaco and a poor black boy from a blue collar family in state housing in england who were ostracized from other karting kids for different reasons and befriended each other and grew up having sleepovers in hotel rooms and doing setups for each others karts and going on holidays together and G R E E C E..... eating frosted flakes together bcos it was nicos favourite food. being kids who raced but raced together as best friends most importantly. making it through the ranks of feeder. winning junior championships and each getting their gp2 champs. both making it to f1. hugging each other and jumping up and down after both getting on a podium together in 2008. only for lewis to win his 1st championship in his second year. and then, suddenly, end up as teammates with nico in a team that seemed to be a backmarker. only for it to Very Much Not Be That the next year. and lewis kept winning in this team, he got his 2nd and 3rd championships beating the other teams and beating nico. and tensions grew between him and nico as the two became more aggressive in fighting for titles and nico who was so competitive began to break himself down to beat lewis (rethreading his gloves for grip, waking up at like 4am, taking more time away from his family, etc) until they took each other out in spain 2016 in the first corner of the first lap. and things between them reached a point of no return. head to head for every race after until finally nico cinched his first f1 title. on a day where he was so nervous, all he could do was eat frosted flakes. He had finally won but, he'd also lost his best friend. no longer on speaking terms. and after all of that effort nico was so burnt out he retired from the sport completely not even a month later. and he became a commentator. in the paddock, still around. and he and lewis danced around each other for YEARS. it was like they had double restraining orders against the other each. nico brought up lewis whenever he could and lewis did his best to just ignore nico and focus on racing which he did perfectly. he got more championships for himself and mercedes. and this year he called valterri the best teammate he'd ever had. and nico not a week later at a heineken sponsored event was filmed on someones phone sitting down with this big group of people talking about the entire breakdown of his relationship with lewis and how toxic it become like every person there was a fucking therapist with this being FIVE YEARS AFTER HE RETIRED like they had to opposites in grieving this friendship. one reservedly and privately and one loudly and publically. and then later in the year abu dhabi 2021 comes around and lewis is fighting for a championship for the first time since nico and hes asked if hes a better driver than he was in 2016 only to respond "yes. And a better teammate" acknowlegding the breakdown for the first time. admitting for the some fault in the 2 way car-crash that was nico and his equivalent of two super-attached wlw teenagers' homoerotic friendship imploding in on itself into a messy, emotional split. and then not 3 seconds after the clip of him saying this the fucking camera crew cut to the sky broadcast team sitting there in shocked SILENCE for like 5 whole seconds just
this sport made these two men live through a nightmare of a fucking fanfiction level friends/lovers to enemies plot and for whatever fucking reason it happened on international tv

People who still think animation is just for kids, let me remind you about:
The Lion King: A beautiful and epic drama about the importance of accepting responsibility for one’s actions, particularly how it applies to those in positions of power.
The Hunchback of Notre Dame: Features dark themes such as racial genocide, sexuality, and religious extremism; but also has a lot of heart and some very poignant points about the role of faith in the modern world.
Zootopia: An allegory for injustice of just about any kind, which uses humans’ perceptions of animals to prove a point about how we perceive people.
Inside Out: A coming-of-age tale that focuses on the importance of emotional stability and empathy.
Coco: A beautifully written celebration of Latin American culture that highlights the importance of family, music, and our relationship with the dead.
The Prince of Egypt: An adaptation of one of the most famous religious stories of all time that keeps the spirit of the original story intact but still feels fresh and new.
Megamind: A comedy that subverts many superhero tropes and uses them to prove a point about the often black-and-white perception of morality.
Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse: A fresh take on the mythos of one of the world’s most famous superheroes that has a unique art style and blends comedy and drama brilliantly.
The Iron Giant: A criticism of blind patriotism and an exploration of free will, supposedly pitched with the question, “What if a gun had a soul?”
The How to Train your Dragon trilogy: An analysis of mankind’s relationship with animals and how we treat them as “others,” which often leads to misconceptions about nonhuman intelligence.
Finding Nemo: A cautionary tale for parents about how much they should allow their children to be independent.
The Lego Movie: A funny and heartwarming tale of family bonding that encourages people to think creatively and discourages blind uniformity and authoritarian rule.
The Incredibles movies: Analyze how society conditions us to follow a cause and how we often forget that those of high social status are still human.
Shrek: A satirical criticism of beauty standards and the oversaturation of certain unrealistic tropes in media.
Big Hero 6: Shows healthy ways to cope with depression and post-traumatic stress and teaches us that mental health should not be disregarded.

Kubo and the Two Strings: An artistic marvel about how nothing lasts forever, but nor does change mean the end.

Lilo & Stitch: A clever family drama that focuses on a non-conventional family and doesn’t hold back with the hardships of raising children.
Ratatouille: A metaphor for the struggles that creative minds face and how society often rejects works of art for superficial reasons. Like, for example, that it’s animated, so that probably means it’s just for kids.

If they don’t get confused and fight each other during training or a match, then what’s the point of having them in the same team
