'And Ashley King wins the Italian Grand Prix'

"Where is Ashley?" Lando Asked Theo. "She is sleeping"

"George, Have you seen Ashley?" Lewis asked.

"I see her only on the screen when we are racing. I don't even know if it's her"

'Max Verstappen wins the Singapore Grand Prix'

"Come on Bella. She doesn't even talk with us anymore" Alex said.

"She talks with Lily. They hang out" Bella said.

"Yeah, who is on tour on the other side of the world? I am here" Alex said pissed.

"She is training Alex"

'It's Ashley King again. The Williams driver wins the Japanese Grand Prix"

"You talk more about her than us George!" Carmen shouted.

"She has been a part of my life from the moment I got on a karting car Carmen. I don't even see her other than the races now. Not even congratulating her on her wins" George shouted back at her.

"I...I just miss her so much. I thought we would spend more time when she signed into Formula 1. Never thought it would pull us away" Lando said when Lui wrapped her hands around him in comfort.

"She is my best friend Bells. I was supposed to be there for her. Ups and Downs" Alex said in a sad tone.

"She just didn't want to cause trouble" she answered.

"I know. But I just miss her"

'And The Dutch win again. How close that was Crofty? Man, these two are giving a show aren't they?'

'Don't you miss spending time with them?" Oliver asked his driver.

"I do, Ollie. But it's for the Best" she said as they went through the data.

"Ash! Ash! Ash! Ash!" Theo came running in. "What happened?" she asked worriedly. He showed her his phone.

'Ashley King is the new brand ambassador for F1 Academy. A sport extensively arranged for women in motorsport. Ashley has been trying to get the Academy running along with Susie Wolff and finally, the FIA has agreed to it. It is also noted that all the F1 teams will have a female driver representing them on the F1 academy. This has paved the way for so many girls to enter Formula 1 and everybody has Ashley King to Thank for that'

"That's good news Ash" Ollie said shaking her shoulder. "Yeah..it is," she said feeling happy that she was able to do something good.

"That woman is becoming unstoppable," Lewis said looking at the news on his phone.

"Now everyone is praising her after pulling her through the dirt," George said in a very frustrated voice. Lewis put a hand on his shoulder.

"She is your best friend. She'll come around" he said. 'I don't think so' George thought.

"They are going wheel to wheel. Who is it gonna be? It's Max again. Max Verstappen wins the Brazillian Grandprix. Now that puts the two drivers on equal points. The championship will be decided on the last race of the year. What a year this has been!"

"You just don't make it easy do you?" Max joked to Ashley as she jumped out of the car.

"I am getting paid to not make it easy for you" she spoke back laughing. Lando was third. Ashley made his way towards him.

"2nd Podium with me ah?" she said punching his arm. Lando turned around and stood there like a child not saying anything. He instead wrapped his hands around her in a very affectionate way. People around literally went 'Awwwwww' looking at them.
