Summary
Max Verstappen has always been the obstacle in Charles Leclerc’s way — on track, in headlines, in every race that mattered. Their history is a collection of crashes, near-misses, and arguments loud enough to draw half the paddock. They’ve been rivals since karting, and neither of them plans to change that.
Then Kelly Piquet smiles at Max in the paddock, and Charles feels something ugly twist in his chest. It’s not about her. Not really. It’s about him.
About Max.
About everything Charles refuses to admit.While Charles tries to keep his jealousy under control (and fails spectacularly), their friends have decided enough is enough. They’re done watching the two of them fight, so they start setting up “accidental” moments for Max and Charles to bond — dinner invitations, last-minute hotel mix-ups, and a dangerously rigged game of Truth or Dare.
It’s a season full of podiums, parties, and photo ops.
It’s also a season full of glances that last too long, arguments that get too close, and the slow, dangerous realization that maybe this rivalry was never just about racing. -

Summary
“How am I suppose to just keep turning up and doing this?” Charles whispered, head tipping back onto Max’s shoulder. “They don’t fucking listen to me. And I’m just shit at…”
“No.” Max silenced him by sitting up straighter, shifting Charles where he leant against him, carefully lay him back onto the mattress so his feet were still planted on the floor, his back stretched out. For a start, it would do wonders for the tension Charles obviously held in his spine. Second, Max could now straddle his hips, and with the lightening fast reactions he had, grab at Charles hands and pin them above his head, stretching his arms up too, hearing his shoulders pop and release some of the stiffness that sat there. “/You/ are not shit at anything. /You/ are one of the most talented drivers out there.”
After another abysmal race in Silverstone, Charles is done. He's angry, he's blaming himself. Max is done in a different way. Luckily, the same solution will help them both.

Summary
“I tell you what,” Seb says. “If you can convince Mattia this lunacy is a good idea, I’ll do it.”
“Promise?”
Seb huffs, sending staticky sounds down the receiver. “Sure. I promise.”

Summary
“I'm not miserable here” Carlos repeats “My results are shit, the strategies too, but right now I wouldn't leave, I wouldn't leave this team”
"Why?" Charles asks again. Carlos swallows hard "Fuck, Carlos, tell me why"
“The people” Carlos blurts out “The people I've met here, I-” he pauses for breath, tears threatening to spill but he blinks several times to chase them away “I wouldn't leave them” Another pause and then “I wouldn't leave you"
