the day
@blaney
won the title. it feels like a rebirth. the man that got me back into racing which subsequently saved my life. he’s the reason my name is ryan. my life didn’t end at 13. forever grateful 🤍

i don’t think people understand how much lewis’ helmet means. not only for the lgbt community in qatar but for lgbt fans of f1. not only is it a pride flag on his helmet, but the progress pride flag. The flag includes black and brown stripes to represent marginalized LGBTQ+
james hinchcliffe calling me “sir”. never questioned anything and just rolled with my pronouns. truly the first time anyone had ever called me sir and a huge part of the reason indycar feels so safe for me 🥲🤍
@Hinchtown
i am two days old in f1 twt time and i’d really like to gain some mutuals and friends or even recommended accounts to follow!! could u maybe like or retweet to signal boost this???
this man has such a kind soul, makes time to talk with people, is a damn good driver and is one of the best humans in the paddock. spewing hate and death threats at him is absolutely immature, disgusting and downright disrespectful. be fucking better. and get your shit together.
hey friends!! important life update: i have signed the lease on my first apartment and will be officially moving to being a permanent , full time resident of indianapolis ✨this is a big day for me and a dream come true. it’s a big step towards being able to fully be me 🤍
how hard it is to love something so much that it hurts to say goodbye✨❤️🔥
as we head into the final indycar race of the season.. i have a lot of thoughts on this season.
(sorry for the long thread <3)
communities of color, along with the colors pink, light blue and white, which are used on the Transgender Pride Flag, according to grpride. it recognizes members of the community in specific. as a trans, bisexual man, there is visibility there, that wasn’t there before.
oops! seasonal depression cured!
70° outside and too much time between classes meant that we were the only people on the 3 pm tour. what a fun day :))
@IMS
@jdouglas4
everyone gives him such a bad rap and shines a bad light on
@AlexanderRossi
but i watched him stick around after an autograph session at IMS to talk ti kids that didn’t make it through the line. he was offered an out but kept on signing and talking.
Over the last couple years I've seen a lot of unnecessary hate for
@AlexanderRossi
, and people acting like it's unpleasant to meet him.
But I wanna share a story with everyone that shows what kind of person he really is though. 1/5

not your average race fan. not everyone can say they do it themselves. i race karts, and i love it with my whole heart, but i face challenges in the sport. i am a trans, bisexual man, but believe me when i say that nothing, not even outdated stereotypes is keeping me from
to quote what i said in the discord: lame as hell and weak af. this doesn’t address anything at all. it’s vague and it definitely doesn’t defend callum. it keeps them safe. but not him.
if u know anything about me, u know this human is my favorite indycar driver. he took the time to take a picture with me after practice. i’m so thankful. thank you

last night was a beautiful celebration of a wonderful man (& driver) who was taken far too soon. The Lionheart was a film filled with grief and love, but most certainly, hope. it was fantastic and so wonderfully directed. it was an honor to be there last night.
