    Summary

    It’s not that Oscar minds not talking (in fact he prefers it) but Max has always unsettled him slightly. It’s not Max’s intensity that bothers Oscar, because he’s similarly intense, but just the legend of him; he’s got a lion on his helmet and five championships under his belt, and he can drive from the pit lane to the podium in under sixty laps.

    So they just sit there in the quiet for a while.

    Something prods at Oscar’s brain about ten minutes in. Poking curiosity. Like someone’s asking him how he feels, genuinely, not the press-ready answer, thanks. He looks at Max, who raises an eyebrow.

    Summary

    “I’m not a rookie and I’m not doing this to prove anything. I like racing in pre-heat," Oscar says.

    Carlos’ brain short circuits. “What?”

    Oscar inclines his head. "It focuses me. Makes me more desperate for the win.”

    Desperate. Carlos can’t help it, his scent blooms.

    --

    Oscar mistimes his heat cycle in Monaco, things go awry. Carlos, who barely knows him, selflessly volunteers to help.

    Summary

    Charlotte Fischer has spent years making sure no one in Formula One knows who she really is.

    At Red Bull, she is simply Charlotte: Cambridge graduate, simulator engineer, owner of a deeply judgmental cat, and the woman responsible for making the team’s broken 2025 car model finally tell the truth.

    She prefers it that way. No family name. No questions. No one looking at her like she is someone’s daughter, someone’s mistake, or someone’s failure to protect.

    Max Verstappen notices her anyway.
