Summary
“Now, I want you to fulfill the usual post-start procedure so from after the control line, four long burnouts and an extra round afterward. Copy that?”
Charles’ sizzling anger made him remain silent.
Fingers digging almost painfully into the steering wheel, shoulders tense, guts inside him wrenching, thoughts all over the place, and vision completely red, he didn’t answer the self-assured, forthright voice.
Something Max clearly expected.
“Charles, when I ask if you copy, you answer me immediately, or else I’ll interpret it as a problem with the radio connection or a medical emergency on your part. Understood?”
A loud, deep exhale, shaky with fury, sounded in the race engineer’s headset before an enforced answer was muttered through one’s teeth.
“Understood.”
“All right, did you copy the instructions I have given you?”
“Copy.”
“Perfect. That’s how I like it. You learn quickly. Now, let’s finally get to work, shall we?”
- or Max Verstappen, the renowned race engineer who has helped Red Bull Racing to four consecutive titles, joins Ferrari — not for Lewis, as everyone expects, but for Charles

Summary
Max won the race under his own power, a race that really wasn’t his to win. He’s invincible today after seasons of being anything but.
He’s never been able to believe in a higher power than himself. He’s starting to find that he wants to.
“What do you want, Max?” Lewis asks again. He's offering a reward, and this time, he’s not smiling. He’s settling back against the bar, and Max hadn’t realized how close he was and he’s closing in on himself and—
Max settles a hand on Lewis’ hip, thumb slipping underneath the tailored blazer, tracing right above the tight waistband of his trousers. Lewis’ skin is warm. Smooth. He’s probably smooth everywhere.
I want—
or: three times max verstappen earns lewis hamilton’s attention, and one time it's given freely.

Summary
Formula one cars move at over 300 km/h. That means over 80 meters go by in a second; and that is the reason why drivers train their reflexes.
Oscar barely saw it coming his way, it came at him too suddenly, but that is no excuse, he trains his reflexes for a reason.
Later, reviewing the onboards and multiple track cameras, he’d learn that Max had swerved too close over the edge and displaced the debris. It bumped into the side of his car and the wind sent it flying backwards right onto Oscar’s path.
But that is at a later date, right now Oscar tries to swerve to avoid the mysterious object.
And he fails.

or; Oscar crashes, and oh boy i make him suffer quite a bit.Bookmarked by katalandrix

Summary
“Y’alright, World Champion Lando Norris?” Max asks, leaning back in his desk chair with his hands tucked behind his head.
“Piss off,” Lando mumbles back, not liking the smile in Max’s tone. Besides, what can he say? ‘Bit lost, actually. Any idea how to handle the best day of your life feeling like the end?’.
Or: Lando runs away to the wrong Perth. Oscar takes in a lost man.
