Summary
It’s the profound tragedy of Lando’s life, he thinks, to realise he’s in love with his teammate – just as Oscar Piastri makes a habit of standing one step higher on the podium, forcing Lando to crane his neck to look at him.
Oscar hates watching the light fade from Lando’s eyes with every victory he takes from him. He accepted the inconvenient truth long ago: he loves Lando. But he loves winning more.

Summary
“It happened because of who we are. The adrenaline, the competition. You beat them, they beat you, and suddenly it feels like something else. Like you need them in ways that don’t make sense off-track. Call it desire, call it whatever. It’s the same rush.”
Lando stared at Max, wide-eyed. He wanted to crack a joke but nothing came out.
“But Charles… he’s not wired like me. He felt more. Took it seriously when I thought I could keep it light.”
Lando’s chest tightened. He could feel it, the truth under the shrug.
“Oscar’s the same. More like Charles than like me. Than like you. He’ll feel it heavier. Carry it longer. You mess him around, you won’t just hurt him, you’ll regret it yourself.”
***
Or, the one where Lando realizes he might be losing to Oscar on and off the track.
