Summary
Max Verstappen has a crush problem.
Specifically, a Charles Leclerc problem.After months of pining, flirting (he swears it was flirting) and making heart eyes across press conferences, Max finally gathers the courage to confess.
Charles smiles, pats his arm and says the words that end Max’s world:“Of course, Max. You’re a very good friend.”
Heart shattered. Pride bruised. Ego permanently dented.
Enter George Russell — Mercedes’ overachieving, PR-polished golden boy and Max’s long-time frenemy. The man who once called him “emotionally constipated” in a drivers’ briefing.
When Max drunkenly vents about his heartbreak, George, half for amusement and half because he can’t resist chaos proposes a plan:
“Let’s fake date. Make Leclerc see what he’s missing. You get your revenge. I get to prove you do have emotions.”
Against all logic, Max agrees.

Summary
"Mon Dieu," Charles muttered, "He like-likes you, Max."
Max just blinked at him, as if Charles had suddenly sprouted horns. "Oscar and I get along. So what?"
Charles felt a twinge of frustration. "So what?" His voice cracked, then steadied. "You barely look at me anymore, but you've got time to - "
He stopped. The sentence died between them.or,
a lestappen slice-of-life au where charles returns to his small town hometown after 7 long years and things go as well as you'd expect :)Bookmarked by cupidstark

Summary
As with many great love stories, this one starts with a hangover, a stolen zip-up, and one (1) viral photo.
Now, Max learns a thing or two about patience and pining, Lando is writing love songs he swears aren’t about Max, and the internet has already decided they’re soulmates.
(The internet might be right.)

Summary
And in the press room, one of the journalists asked:
“Lewis, are you surprised to be that unstoppable driver we all remembered?”
Silence.
Lewis leans slightly toward the microphone, intertwines his fingers, and smiles with that dangerous calm that always follows him.
“Surprised?” he repeats slowly, letting the echo linger. “No. I just wonder why you’re surprised. I never left.”
...
Where 33 year old Lewis Hamilton travels eight years into the future and finds himself surrounded by new faces and regulations. Oh, and apparently, he’s now a Ferrari driver and Charles Leclerc’s teammate.
He also has to remind people who he is. A five (seven) times world champion. He’s not a “fallen legend,” thanks, Crofty.

Summary
Max Verstappen never planned on becoming a bodyguard for Monaco’s Princess,
Fresh off years of elite special forces training and teaching new recruits how not to die, Max Verstappen's life is spent alone in a spotless Monaco apartment, until it's not. The moment Max is pulled into a high-stakes assignment is life changes: protecting Charlotte Leclerc the princess of Monaco, and the monarchy’s only heir, from an anonymous death threat, becomes his number one priority.
She’s stubborn, reckless, and she’s exactly the kind of trouble Max knows he shouldn’t get involved with.
But fate, it seemed, had other ideas.
