It's midday now and I made my way into the cafeteria. I saw Max waiting at the door with someone else. When I got closer I recognized the person as Daniel Ricciardo, the other Red Bull driver and my next appointment . They both looked at me and Max greeted me in Dutch . I replied to him in Dutch as well and introduced myself to Daniel. "Hi I'm..." I started when Daniel interrupted me "Amilia I know nice to meet you." he said wearing a big, warm smile as he pulled me into a hug. I was surprised for a second but hugged him back immediately. We walked into the cafeteria together and had lunch.
While sitting in the cafeteria and chatting with the the two drivers I realized how well I get along with both of them.

Lunch break was over and Daniel followed me into the sport area since he has his session with me in a few. While he had his therapy we talked about a lot of things and he explained to me how the schedule will be when the season starts. It sounded kinda stressful but I'm looking forward to it.
Daniel thanked me and complimented my therapy afterwards and walked out of the Sport area after giving me a goodbye hug. I saw no sessions left in my calendar which means it's the end of my first work day. I logged out of the PC, turned off the lights and grabbed my car keys. On my way out I met Mr Horner. " Ms Van Dijk, great to see you I hope you enjoyed your first day." he says smiling at me. "Hello Mr Horner it's great to see you too I really enjoyed my first day here." I replied smiling at him as well. After the short conversation with Mr Horner I walked out of the building and straight to my car.

I thought about what I should cook myself for dinner on my ride home when I heard a weird sound on my car. I stopped the car on the side of the road and tried to find what was wrong. I walked around the car and then saw it. I had a flat front tire. I sighed because I wasn't able to make up a reason for the flat tire. I walked to the back of my car and pulled the emergency tire out . I have quite some knowledge about cars since my dad is into cars and F1 since I can remember. He showed and explained a lot of things to me so I can help myself . I prepared everything to change the tire. Surprisingly I pulled the old tire off in only a short amount of time, my dad would be so proud of me right now. I placed the new tire where it's supposed to be and started to put on the wheel nuts. As I was about to grab the last wheel nut, I felt nothing laying on the floor. "oh no fu..." I started swearing as I realized there is one missing. I sighed once again and sat down on the floor, trying to come up with a conclusion.
I realized a car pulling up behind my car. The person stepped out and I recognized the bright smile from earlier. "Amilia are you alright?" he asks looking down, me still sitting on the floor. "Yes I'm alright I had a flat tire and replaced it with the emergency tire, but they somehow forgot one fu**ing wheel nut so I can't finish." I told him, still pissed about it. Daniel kneeled down next to me and inspected my work. "I think I can help you out with another wheel nut, give me a second." he says and walks over to his car. He came back with one and I smiled at him. "Daniel you are my hero of the day." I said after putting it on. "No problem, good job Amilia." he says. "I will definitely call you if one of my pit crew members is ill." I laugh at his comment and thanked him once again. We both stepped back into our cars and I finally arrived back home. I parked on my spot and got out of the car. Daniel parked right next to me and I looked at him in confusion . "Do you also live here?" I ask. "Yes I do, didn't know you live here either." he replied. We both smiled and walked into the complex.
