    Summary

    “Well“ Daniel said with a grin “I wanted to hold a part two of my presentation, I left some couples out last time. But some people were not so convinced when I mentioned that it’d include Pierre and Este…“

    “DON‘T MENTION IT AGAIN!“

    “WHAT MY TEAMMATE SAID!“

    “Aww, they’re bonding already“ cooed George with an affectionate smile on his face, which what?

    “What did you do to Russell?“ Max asked lightly amused.

    “Oh, we started playing ‘never have I ever’ and Lando targeted George to get him drunk” replied Valtteri, who had a bottle with a questionable coloured liquor in it.

    Summary

    Oscar isn’t ashamed to admit that he’s genuinely kind of terrified when he signs with McLaren. Even putting aside the entire drama that is the contract debacle with Alpine. It had been bad enough being their reserve driver, he didn’t think he could stand to be their actual driver.

    Still, the guilt had been weighing on him like something heavy. Both for the entire drama, and the knowledge of whose seat he had taken exactly. 
    He was glad suddenly that he had never gotten around to disclosing his real designation to the team, because at least that was one less thing they could use against him. 

    or

    (Oscar, a newly presented omega does what anyone could do when panicking; he lies about his designation. He think's it will be an easy situation, right up until the grid begins acting so strange)

    Summary

    “Maybe next week Max will let you win,” Tom jokes.

    Charles chuckles a little, but looks even more uncomfortable than he did before.

    Max, still riding on his anger from Charles admitting Ferrari are upset with him, raises the microphone.

    “That is not funny,” he says, barely restraining himself from unleashing his anger on Tom.

    If he doesn’t put a stop to this now, people will always speculate. They will always wonder: did Max let Charles pass? Did Charles go wide on purpose? Are they going easy on each other? Are they sharing team secrets?

    “What, you think that because I love him that I would just let him pass by me? You do not know anything about our relationship, and you clearly do not know anything about me if you think that I would do this. If I let anybody win, I would not deserve my seat in F1. This joke is stupid, and it is insulting.”

     

    or: following their very public trackside and podium kisses, Max and Charles deal with the consequences of their coming out. They knew things would be difficult; but they didn't really expect the many, many ways it would change their lives.

    Summary

    On October 23rd, the infamous Instagram gossip account Deuxmoi posted the following blind item:

    anon pls, overheard at the austin paddock a rumor that a certain f1 driver has a secret crush on another driver. he's trying to keep it on a down low but everyone's clocking him so bad. he's not exactly subtle about it.

    The F1 grid is in shambles.

    Summary

    "Can't say I'm sorry Mr. Best-Qualifier, let's have a good and safe race tomorrow, yeah?" Jokes the RedBull driver after the mandatory photos while patting Charles on the back and giving a very brief squeeze on his waist. Charles rolls his eyes at how he underlines the word 'safe'.

    "Yep, congratulations on the pole," says Charles touching his shoulder "I'll make sure you check your rear mirrors, don't say I didn't warn you," before going away gulping down his water.

    Or, Charles is tired of being perfect and Max doesn’t help. At all.

    Or, I wanted some true enemies to lovers so I just wrote it myself. Tired of the whole “they actually like each other but just hide it” bullshit.

    Summary

    In a world where every soul walks beside its daemon, the high-octane world of Formula 1 is more than just a battle of speed - it's a collision of spirit, will and identity. Lando Norris has always trusted his instincts on the track, his daemon a wild, ever-moving reflection of his drive. It was always said to 'expect the unexpected', but Oscar Piastri, a quiet, conserved rookie, was the last thing Lando would have expected.

    Two strangers are thrown together by the chaos of racing, and as the season unfolds, and their daemons draw closer, the two begin to find something neither expected. Solace, understanding, and some might even say - love.

    Summary

    A Netflix Original special episode.

    Three months after their disappearances at the Silverstone Grand Prix, the drivers share their experiences as they prepare to race in Austin.

     

    Something isn’t right, but Max can’t put the pieces together. There should be a yellow flag, right? He weaves across the track. Red quickly appears in his mirrors, Charles still driving at race pace, and Max’s competitive instincts tell him to speed back up but he swallows it down, committing to the potentially stupid safety car speed.

     

    Thankfully, Charles slows down before he collides into the back of Max’s car. They’re joined by George’s Mercedes, one of the lapped Haas cars, the second Red Bull. They pass Pierre and Logan by the second corner, not crashed, just sat by the side of the track. Carlos stops on the straight between turns five and six. Lance is standing on his seat, staring out towards the grandstands, and Max can’t hear any cheering.

    Summary

    When he had presented, it had been his first failure, the first of many disappointments. Because he hadn’t been the Alpha his dad had wanted him to be. Because he couldn’t even be a Beta.

    Not even his success, his dedication, his love for racing had been able to make up for it. Not for his dad, anyway.

    Because Omegas don’t win. Omegas don’t become Formula One drivers. Omegas aren’t World Champions.

    Omegas don’t even belong on track. They never have. Despite everything, they never will.

    Even after Seb. Even after Charles. Even after—

    Even after Max.


    Or, Max should have been an Alpha—needs to be, really. He isn’t. (No one can ever find out.)

    Summary

    He spends the week between Bahrain and Australia doing everything he possibly can to figure out how to make himself better— and spending half the time regressed and trying not to crawl out of his skin with anxiety.

    The time seems to simultaneously fly, and drag out to ungodly levels.

    Nobody was forgetting the scandal that had followed his exit from Alpine and entrance into the F1 McLaren seat, and he needed to prove that he did belong here.

    or

    (Oscar Piastri, the ongoing attempts at navigating the new grid dynamics, and the appearance of his home race)

    Summary

    “George, what’s wrong?” Lewis’ voice was gentle but still made George jump, turning around the face the pack members who had chosen to sleep there night.

    “P-please help me, I’m scared...” George whimpered.

    “Shh, come here.” Lewis said, arms opening for George to climb into. George didn’t need anything else, rushing toward his teammate and falling onto his lap. Lewis didn’t get the chance to ask what was wrong before the handle was being twisted and someone was pounding on the door.

    **

    George just wanted to take a late-night walk, the last thing he expected was to run into an unknown alpha and upset them.

    Prompt 37: "Pl-please help me I'm scared"

    Summary

    The girl turns to Oscar and gives him a hug. All the while Logan is left to stand there, arm extended to return the phone with sweaty palms, praying for the interaction to end. A twing in his heart echos in the emptiness of it.

    [...]

    And then Oscar wins his first ever Formula 1 Grand Prix, leaving Logan behind in the dusts of P19.

    He finds himself mourning as he stands with shaking legs and looks over at his best friend hugging his team.

    [...]

     

    pause, then Alex talks again:
    "I think I'll need to show you some of those Lance-Fernando edits"


    Logan can't help but compare himself to Oscar, over and over again. He struggles with doubts about belonging, self-worth and trusting Alex in the truth; that it'll all be fine eventually.

     

    or
    4x Logan feels like the most hated driver,
    4x Logan feels welcomed,
    1x someone else is the most hated

    Summary

    Max Verstappen, the reigning victor of chaos, is one of those majestic, great men whose adventures and exploits are preserved in history. Legends and myths are created for such heroes. For those men's seconds, they must be content with smaller acknowledgment, smaller acts, and smaller sacrifices.

    These spotlights rarely shine so dimly on these men, though. Their allegiance is primarily what makes them blind to the displayed love. For Charles Leclerc, it was his pride.

    Or, “Five times Charles Leclerc ignored his heats for the sake of everyone else, and one time he let go."
