hiii! my name is emilian, my pronouns are he/they and i have been writing f1 rpf for a while now under the name papayabrainrot but ao3 isn't particularly uh... interactive, so i thought i'd make a tumblr dedicated to my works :)

i'm autistic and have been writing basically since i learnt how... but i started getting into the fanfiction community at age 11. i've been into f1 since january of 2024 and my favourite drivers are oscar, lance, liam, and kimi <3 this is NOT a safe space for haters of any of them.

i'll write for pretty much any pairing i can think of storylines for, romantic or non-romantic, but my favourite pairings to write are brocedes and landoscar! i don't write x reader though.

hope you like my fics and feel free to send me asks and stuff, i love interacting :)

rules: tagger gives a word, then for each letter of that word you share an excerpt from your WIPs that start with that letter.

dearest bug @jusst-you-race tagged me in this challenge with the word WRITE so without further ado i will desperately try to sort through my many WIPs to find appropriate letters.

W - from 'little trouble (live from london)'

“Well, straight guys aren’t really in the habit of sleeping with Jense, so I think it’s a pretty safe bet.” “What?” Seb is indignant. “How did you know I was sleeping with Jenson?” Lewis laughs. “He wouldn’t stop bragging about it.” Seb felt heat rush to his cheeks. Jenson had been bragging about sleeping with him? He wasn’t sure whether to feel gross, because Jenson thought of him as a conquest, or pleased, because he thought of him as a prize. He decided, in all his wisdom, to go for the latter.

R - from 'round of applause for the next big star'

Rivals and friends—Nico would like something like that. Alain Prost has two other children, but Sacha is only seven and Victoria’s just one, so neither of them try to talk to Bruno, sticking close to their father instead. But Bruno seems to be receptive to Nico Prost, and they get to talking. Nico turns away from them, ignores his dad telling him to ‘play with Nelsinho’—he couldn’t want anything less—and instead goes to listen to Old Man Jack—Australian F1 champion Jack Brabham—tell a story about racing in the ‘50s. He loves listening to stories about the ‘50s. They seem fast and dangerous and incredible. Nico could listen to Jack ramble on about the races for hours. He misses Grandpa Fangio though—he was a five time world champion and let all the kids call him Grandpa even though he didn’t have any children of his own—who had died two years ago, much to the despair of racers worldwide.

I - from 'play me like a game'

It hadn’t even been three days since he downloaded it, and Lando was already addicted to Still Life. He had played through every character’s route, looked through forums for special endings, and even found an undocumented Easter Egg—the pretty Muslim med school student, Aisha, had a hidden bonus scene that was only accessible when the computer’s clock was set to 8:14 am on the 5th of March when you were taking Daisuke’s route. Most importantly, he had confirmed what Carlos had said—nobody else had managed to successfully romance Jack as quickly as he had. As Lando read through the dozens of fan theories on why Jack was so hard to romance—the most popular one was that Jack was aroace and not supposed to be romanceable at all—he was more and more confused by his own experiences.

T - from an unnamed landoscar single dads au

The PTA head turns out to be a man named George Russell, who, judging by the usage of colloquialisms like ‘blimey’ and ‘holy moly’ even over text, is likely very British. Despite being a man, George embodies the classic PTA mum—as insanely organised as he is overworked, juggling three children (two seven year olds and a baby, Oscar thinks he said) with a job, organising bake sales, doing uniform drives, herding cats (read: schoolchildren) onto buses for field trips… Oscar could never do what George does. 

E - from 'at home, in this family we've made'

Even Grace joins in, calling him ‘Mimimimimi’ and clapping her little hands together. Little Kimi holds out his finger to her, and she grasps it tightly, babbling his name and grinning, showing her two teeth. He’s so good with her, a gentle and sweet big brother. It makes Kimi’s heart warm. His family feels so complete with little Kimi in it.

the likelihood of any of these WIPs being finished any time soon is unlikely.

tagging um @likepilotlights @seafoampearlygirl and anyone else who wants to do it. again im shy and have no friends. sorry for bothering you. your word is RACES. enjoy <3

my dad is not an f1 fan, but he has vague knowledge from when he watched it 'back in the day' and an autistic son who will not stop yapping about it, so he has opinions sometimes. he has no preference for any driver except vague support for liam lawson because he is a kiwi and unless you're an italian who lives and breathes ferrari and refuses to acknowledge any non-ferrari driver, that's what you do.

i was talking to him the other day about red bull. this was before the liam–yuki swap, but i believe after china. he knew that liam had been struggling in the red bull, and he vaguely knew the team's recent history.

he told me a story about building planes. how they built fighter planes very stable at first, because obviously you want the huge metal contraption taking you into the sky to be sturdy. but then apparently, these planes were so stable that they couldn't do any of the tricks and dives a fighter plane needed to be able to do. so they built more planes, but this time, they made them purposefully unstable so they would be more effective at doing all those tricks.

the conclusion from this story is that this could easily be what red bull have been doing to their car. they have been sacrificing stability for speed. max has been able to work out how to control the car enough to extract the speed from it. no matter what he’s like as a person, he is, after all, a generational talent. but everyone else, the drivers who are talented but not in the way that max is, fight the car, and the car wins.

so it doesn’t matter who you put in that car—they will struggle. because red bull have prioritised speed over ease.

the 'red bull second seat curse' isn't a curse. it is a direct consequence of red bull's desire for the car to be fast above all else.

it will continue to happen.

nap time is wasted on toddlers. why would we give nap time to literally human bundles of energy. let uni students have nap time instead. this is a petition.

brocedes lore is crazy. what do you mean nico interviewed alain prost on his podcast. they talk, they laugh, and then, when nico is wrapping the discussion up, as if it's nothing, prost says he hopes nico and lewis can make amends. the world goes on for everyone but nico. he is half-dead on the battlefield, struck through the heart, vision curling around the edges.

he chokes down the shock. he manages to say--oh, yeah, i'd be open to that, casually, as if he isn't split in two, as if the wound is not still fresh. then he begs the wizened old champion to tell him how does someone make amends with their former rival. 'doesn't someone need to apologise first?' his voice caught between bone-deep anxiety and yearning, between the need to keep his composure and the desperate hope that maybe it isn't too late for him to reconcile with lewis.

this post has somehow completely left off the most important context—that alain prost also had a dramatic rivalry with a teammate, that he said that nico and lewis reminded him of himself and senna, that their relationship, which was just starting to mend, was cut off abruptly by senna's death, a death which prost said killed a part of him as well. he was essentially stumbling around in the dark after the death of his greatest rival. so he wants nico and lewis to make up so they aren't left with their regrets like he was.

the japanese grand prix is coming up so i want to remind you all that while of course jules bianchi was charles leclerc's godfather, he was also a racer and a person in his own right.

jules bianchi scored marussia's only points in f1, won f3 euro series, finished 3rd in gp2 two years in a row, was the first ferrari academy driver ever, and was considered a favourite for a ferrari seat in 2015 since fernando alonso was likely to depart. his p9 in monaco in 2014 was described as 'like a grand prix win' for marussia, whose best finish before then was a pair of p12s in 2012, at the singaporean and brazilian grands prix.

being charles leclerc's godfather was only one thing about jules bianchi, one aspect of the life he lived.

forza jules siempre.

  • Pairing: Ollie Bearman & Esteban Ocon (featuring Ollie Bearman/Kimi Antonelli)
  • Rating: G
  • Word Count: 1289
  • Date Published: 28.03.25

Esteban knows what they say about him. Selfish, entitled, a terrible team player.

His chance to prove himself once and for all comes when he moves to Haas. For the first time, he has a younger teammate, a rookie, who looks to him for guidance and reassurance.

So when Ollie tugs on his sleeve during the drivers’ parade and murmurs I have to tell you something, Esteban channels his inner big brother.

note: please do not expect romantic bearcon from this fic. this is a found family fic. they explicitly think of each other as brothers, and they are both dating other people.

yuki in the red bull and liam in the vcarb is what should've happened in the first place, but red bull were too busy being racist to think about the careers of two of their talented young drivers.

there has only been one, two if you consider non-indigenous latino people to be people of colour (which you are well within your right to do, it's not my place to stop you) non-white drivers to ever drive for red bull. considering how many drivers of colour they have or have had in the various iterations of vcarb and their junior team (yuki, isack, arvid, etc), and with countless racist and xenophobic comments higher ups at red bull have made in the past, it's difficult to argue that racism is never a factor in red bull's decisions.

red bull's racism is not liam's fault, but at the end of the day, he is white, so he benefits from it, as is max and sebastian and mark and daniel and many other former red bull drivers. while racism is unlikely to be the sole factor in choosing to promote him over yuki (other factors such as the alleged clause in his contract guaranteeing him a seat for 2025 and his lack of experience making him easy to blame for the car's shortcomings are also likely), due to red bull's history, it is safe to say that it was almost certainly involved.

the presence of many drivers of colour in f1 warms my heart, knowing that many little children can see themselves in lewis, or in isack, or in yuki, or in any of the drivers of colour who've fought the entire racist system to be here. but it’s also absolutely heartbreaking to witness the rampant racism within the f1 community, both within the paddock and outside of it. 'we race as one' cannot be true until poc get the equity they deserve.
