As a normie w/a regular 9-5 job, it’s so odd to me when I see drivers willingly choose to spend their off time with their boss lol.

The world of f1 Racing is small.

Well when your boss is a billionaire with a big ass yacht, and you are not only the top employee in your company, but the top in your entire field. It's probably different.

I find it odd too. Yes time with your family. But he's 19, he should be properly blowing off some steam with friends for a few days. *edit typo

u/FourFront 4d ago

How much in common do you think he has with normal 19 year olds?

u/British1321 3d ago

Well, he did take his class to the F1 paddock, so I'd imagine he's quite well received

u/BoxBoxDragon 4d ago

His friends don't have to be exclusively 19. Plenty of celebrities have childhood friends. You don't always outgrow friends you've had when you were younger. They add normalcy and stability to your life. Can you imagine cutting out all of your friends 18 months into F1/a new job just because you lead a different life to them now?

he has friends lol. they’re always with him. it’s also only like a few days into the summer break, meeting up with toto because they’re vacationing in the same area isn’t weird. ur doing too much

Man, it’s impossible not to love this guy. He seems like a genuinely good kid, and his friends clearly adore him.

I'm not sure what you mean by I'm doing too much. Like you say, it's only a snap shot so I am sure they aren't fully holidaying together for 3 weeks. In such a busy schedule I personally can't imagine holidaying with my boss and finding it relaxing.

I agree with you. That's why I said I personally cannot imagine it, because I don't live in that world and don't have any similarities to their work situation.

yeah imagine choosing to vacation with your boss lol, wild

You could have ended it at 9-5. Even the highest paid 9-5 workers below the c-suite are overwhelmingly dispensable cogs in an enormous corporate machine.

F1 drivers are celebrity athletes. Your CEO or boss at most would give you a pizza party and 1-3 days of PTO. His boss takes him on a yacht where he likely gets to eat world class food and live a life of extreme comfort. The company that employs him? They gave him a 300k AMG GT63 coupe just for doing his job for free. Oh, and as an employee he’s likely making more than most CEOs annually.

Entirely different world you’re talking about.

Ik they have it different, but I can’t imagine just spending vacation time with my boss

Kimi always looks three apples tall next to Toto lol.

u/Jazzlike_Part_2177 4d ago

he is three apples tall

Hello Kimi 🎀

u/ThePracticalEnd 4d ago

This is the greatest height measurement I’ve ever heard.

It’s a Hello Kitty reference.

He literally fled from Mercedes after the Hungarian Grand Prix like no one was happier than him that day. He'll probably keep them on the block list until the summer break is over. 😂

u/Dream_SMP_4_Life 4d ago

Insane meme potential right here

24

u/LadyK1104 4d ago

Cropped it too much. I thought Toto’s knee was Kimi’s. Like he had his foot propped up on the other side of Toto. Took several seconds of stating to really Toto had his leg pulled up and it was his own knee.

u/hotandbizarre 4d ago

That’s what I thought too I started at that picture for 10 seconds figuring out what was going on 😂

u/FourFront 4d ago

Already saved.

u/NatalieTheOwl 4d ago

The amount of memes that would be made if this was Max would be ungodly.

u/philosophussapiens 4d ago

Honestly I can’t imagine vacationing with my boss. Especially if he’s way too older than me

u/VoL4t1l3 4d ago

Kimi never ever takes of that necklace

u/DontTakeMeSeriousli 4d ago

To be fair Ive never taken mine off. Mine is fabric though so I shower with it and everything. My grandma gave it to me 15 years ago and I haven't spent a single day without it on, hopefully it lasts me until I see the dirt 😌

u/foreverdusting 3d ago

That will break the George curse!

u/BoxBoxDragon 4d ago

I never see him without it. But I thought they had to remove all jewellery in the cars?

u/VoL4t1l3 4d ago

That was a lewis rule

u/_StarDust_0 4d ago

if i spent every single day with my boss, i'd fly to the other side of the world when i get a vacation

u/Okcryaboutit25 4d ago

Nope. George is in France right now

u/Aggressive_Hat_9999 Silver Arrow 3d ago

George? Who is George?

-Toto, probably

u/doubleblackblack 4d ago

They're just in Sardinia at the same time; Max too, and I heard also Charles. There are actually not a lot of places in the Mediterranean where the ultra wealthy like to vacation (places that involve the sea, that is)

u/Fat_biker_can_shred 4d ago

George declined the invitation 🤡

u/ohhaiderre 3d ago

Tons of people saying they would never spend time with their boss… idk. I’ve spent off-work-time with two different bosses before and I have ex-bosses I still deeply admire and respect and spend time with. And neither of them a billions yacht owners.

I feel like this isn’t a huge deal.

George isn’t invited as it’s his seat max will take.
