    Summary

    When practice is done and he’s showered, he checks his phone.
    The 16 messages from Lily are expected with Ilya traveling to Detroit this week. Ilya has a strong but unsupported hatred of Detroit. The ‘vibes are bad Shane’ was the last claim Shane had heard and he is prepared to read even less substantiated claims.
    He’s unprepared to see a group chat he’s been added to.
    Shane is only a part of a few group chats. One that Rose put together with a bunch of her not out queer friends that he keeps muted but likes to scroll through every once in a while (they have good memes). The group chat with the whole team he only keeps up with for Captain Reasons but keeps it muted too. The one with both of his parents that his mom uses more often than her single thread with him cause ‘Your Dad deserves to be in the loop too’. And finally the one with Jackie and Hayden which is mostly him and Jackie bullying Hayden and Hayden being increasingly frustrated with their antics.
    This is not even close to those

    Summary

    In 2015, when Max first joined F1 as a fresh-faced rookie, the pack shut him out because of the wrongness and temperament that existed on him like a second skin. In 2025, Max has mellowed out and the pack, specifically the rookies, begin coming to him. Whether they are tired, angry, hurting, or unsure, Max never says no. He doesn’t weigh the risks of involving himself with a pack that doesn't claim him; he only registers that someone needs something, and that he knows how to give.

    Layered on that, Max has a secret that the pack doesn’t know nor understand but they begin to circle it. It lives in the way he goes still when certain voices drop, in how his eyes glaze when praise lands too heavy, in how he never asks for anything and how every so often he'll disappear and return as a ghost.

    Summary

    It was always known that all Formula 1 teams dreamed of having a driver of Max Verstappen's caliber. But the truth is that they weren't looking for “someone like him,” but rather him, in their ranks, dominating every turn.

    What if that dream came true?
    When Red Bull makes a series of fatal mistakes towards the end of the season, the unthinkable happens: its star driver's exit clause is activated. In an instant, all the team managers launch themselves into the most ruthless race of their lives, fighting to get Max to wear their team's colors.

    Who will emerge victorious? Which team can offer him exactly what he wants? Or will Red Bull manage to recover and prove that it is still the team it promised to be for him?
