Summary
This has been the most surreal two hours of Charles’ life. As weird and fictional it sounded, they couldn’t deny the facts: They somehow ended up in another reality where their sport was completely different, and they now share the grid with the last 6 World Champions in the prime of their career.
They all regrouped in George’s hotel room, as the brit was setting up his powerpoint.
‘CRASH COURSE: HOW TO SURVIVE AN ALTERNATE REALITY’He must be going crazy, there’s no other explanation.
Or: 7 F1 drivers wake up in an alternate universe with a totally different 2024 grid. Follow them as they try to adapt racing along side some of the best drivers of the modern era.

Summary
Max is an embarrassing amount of gin and tonics into the night when Lando shouts very loudly into his ear.
“Does Charles pay for everything for you?”
“What?” Max shouts back.
“I mean like– Seems like he’s always paying for you, mate,” Lando says. Holds both hands up in the air and dubiously glances to the side. “Not that I’m judging or anything.”
“He doesn’t pay for everything,” Max lamely insists.

Summary
Max Verstappen grew up in a house where being an omega meant nothing. His father, an alpha who saw tenderness as weakness, made sure of that. There was no space for instincts, no softness, no guidance. Max learned to navigate the world on his own—sharp-edged, self-contained, untouched by the kind of care he was told he didn’t need.
Carlos Sainz was raised differently. In his family, an omega’s nature was something sacred, and alphas were taught to protect, to honor, to love. He grew up watching devotion play out in gestures both grand and small—his father’s steady loyalty to his omega mother a quiet lesson that shaped everything he believes.
When Carlos meets Max, instinct draws him in. But it’s more than that. It’s the way Max moves through the world like no one’s ever helped him carry anything. It’s the silence behind his eyes. The way he doesn’t flinch at closeness—but doesn’t lean into it either.
Carlos wants to show him what it means to be cared for. Max, who’s never known softness without strings, doesn’t see it for what it is. To him, Carlos is just... Carlos—warm, steady, maybe too much. But always there.

Summary
Ever since Seb left, there’s been a hole in the pack that they haven’t managed to fill. There hasn’t been a pack omega before Seb, and now there’s not one after him either.
Technically, Max should be—he is the oldest omega on the grid, the omega that has been around the longest, but Max has never been part of the pack, and he doesn’t think he’ll ever be.
Or, the rookies think Max is the pack omega. He is not.

Summary
He stretches his legs, presses his feet to the floor. He still can’t feel the ground beneath him.
There’s nothing, no tingling in his toes, no cold seeping into his bones. It’s like his feet don’t belong to him anymore, like they’re someone else’s.
Even if he could control his lower legs without pain or exertion again, even if he got his range of motion back, he still wouldn’t be able to race.
Or, Max tries to deal with the aftermath of a career-ending crash. He isn’t sure who he is beyond Max Verstappen, Formula One World Champion.

Summary
Omegas are one in fifty thousand. They are to be kept out of danger, protected and loved by a full pack in order to keep them safe and happy. No pack in their right mind would let an omega race in Formula One.
So Max Verstappen must keep his true designation hidden from the full-alpha grid if he wants to race. That is, of course, until they find out anyway.

Summary
Max hated him. He hated him. He couldn’t stand him. He couldn’t stand the way his curls clung to his face. He couldn’t stand the way his eyelashes fluttered. He couldn’t stand the way he smiled. He couldn’t stand the way he walked. He couldn’t stand the alpha. Not after what had happened. Not after Charles pushed him into a wall and didn’t even get a penalty. Not after he placed P1, and he got a DNF.
Or
What if Max crashed during the race instead of when he was qualifying and got DNF in the Monaco Grand Prix 2024? Charles knew he fucked up. How will he try to make it up to him?Bookmarked by Pix1e_dust

Summary
There’s a weird moment then, where Max does put the jacket on, and then kind of just– deflates into it. Realistically, Daniel isn’t that much larger than him, but he likes his clothing a bit oversized, and it settles nicely around Max. They look at each other, and Max’s eyes go a bit half-lidded with what looks like contentment. Daniel tells himself he must just be finally warm, and ignores the matching feeling in his own chest.
Daniel never does get his jacket back. He doesn’t mind for some reason.
(Or: Daniel tries to court Max by accident, stops himself because Max is a beta and doesn't even know what he wants, and then finds out neither of those things are true. Well. Second chances, right?)

Five Times Max hid his Animal Form and One Time He Didn't by echoelocation

Summary
There are rookies on the grid. Five new rookies, six if you include Liam. Max is absolutely including Liam into the roster, because he still looks so young and excited and nervous about his season, and he keeps spiking his hair up with some silly hair gel which then makes Max want to smooth it back down, and—
There are six rookies on the grid. Which is totally fine, and Max is completely normal about. 100%, totally normal.
It’s his fucking cat instincts that seem to have a problem with them.
Or:
In a world full of animal shifters, Max being able to turn into a cat shouldn't be that weird. It wouldn't be, if Jos hadn't spent Max's entire life convincing the world Max could turn into a lion and not a house cat. Now, Max is stuck wrangling both his cat instincts and six rookies while trying to not let the entire world find out his brand "Unleash the lion" is a lie.
Somehow, Charles is involved in all of this. Max isn't quite sure how.

Summary
They were born sixteen days apart, on the same street, in the same year.
In the late autumn of 1997, Sophie and Jos Verstappen welcomed a healthy baby boy and named him Max. Just over two weeks later, across the road, the Leclerc family celebrated the arrival of their second son, Charles.
No one could have known it then—not even their parents—but something had already begun to take shape. A rhythm. A pairing. A kind of quiet gravity that would pull them together for the rest of their lives.

Summary
As he rounded the next corner, into sector two, he caught sight of the crash. From the collapsed barriers and the dust of the kicked-up gravel, it was a bad one. Then he saw a flash of red, the briefest of glances at the livery.
A Ferrari.
“Who?”
“Repeat?"
“Who’s in the wall?”
“Focus. Gap to car ahead, 1.3 seconds.”
“Who is in the wall?”
“Leclerc.”
Witnessing the aftermath of Charles's crash, Max makes a choice he could come to regret. As the media swarms their relationship, there may be more demons to face than they ever expected.

Summary
When the news of Max Verstappen's retirement reaches Charles Leclerc, fresh off his maiden championship win in Abu Dhabi, he has one thought in his mind, "Why didn't he tell me first?"
Maybe the freshly-crowned World Champion isn't supposed to feel sad that his emotional support rival has the media convinced he is leaving the sport that has been their whole lives for so long, but maybe it has something to do with the crush he's been beating off with a stick since he was twelve. Fortunately, Max feels the same way. Unfortunately, neither of them want to admit it.
