    Summary

    “Am I too late?” He asks, not daring to make direct eye contact with the McLaren driver.

    Daniel has to know. He isn’t stupid. He’s a lot of things, but he’s not stupid.

    “Max.”

    His voice sounds lower, heavy with something else. Something that pre-World Championship trophy winner Max Verstappen would have taken as the sign to drop the conversation and leave. But not this time. He wonders if it’s ever changed Lewis like this.

    “Daniel, please, I just- I need to know. Am I too late?”

    ---

    Or, the one in which it takes winning the World Championship for Max to realise he's let something more important slip through his fingers. That something is named Daniel Ricciardo.
