EPISODE 41:R20: ABU DHABI!WHAT A SEASON!

Celes: Now this is a holiday? Right Jiwon?

Ji-won: It sure is Celes. I almost feel pity for ATEEZ who are currently at award shows.

Celes smirked: Keyword almost. You won't get this next year most likely when you get rookie of the season.

Ji-won chuckled: You're that confident in this huh?

Celes shook his head: I am confident in it.

Ji-won rolled her eyes as she looked forward: Crazy. Your first ever f1 season and it's gone in a flash.

Celes: Yah. But what a season it has been. My first podium and f1 victory. Unbelievable. What a debut season.

Qualifying and the race:

The qualifying itself was a borefest and the race itself was a borefest. Like actual Abu Dhabi. Qualifying 6th due to Verstappen crashing in Q3 and finishing 7th. Instead it's time to focus on the inside of the garage.

The race only at the start was it entertaining as Bottas once again got an absolute shocker of a start and the two Ferraris got absolute fliers and Vettel was now first place and Raikkonen 4th as he tried to pass Ricciardo but this is Abu Dhabi. So...good luck with that.

In the end despite a shit second half, Ferrari managed to scrap by as consutrctors champions as we ended up 7th and 8th to finish in 4th place. Wow.

Jessica: On behalf of Blanc & Eclare, I would like to extend my greatest gratitude to you Felipe. Thank you for your contribution to this team and for answering the call to join the team for one last season. As a parting gift, although it was not in the contract, I would like you to keep this f1 car. It's your after all. You get to keep this car with you in your garage.

Massa chuckled: Thank you Jessica. It's been an honor and thank you for this opportunity. I would still be around as second advisor alongside Jenson button.

Jessica: Actually I would like to extend another offer. Would you like to stay in the team as head of the young driver program.

Massa nodded: I would love to. This has been the best team I have worked for and would like to repay it back by helping establish that young driver academy.

Post-season test:

Celes was watching on as he watched Alexander Albon. Jessica gave me the next 2 days of the post-season test off as she wants me to just watch and give the younger drivers some advice.

Sophia: So...what a season it has been huh Celes?

Celes turned and saw Sophia as she walked towards me as the two shook hands.

Celes: Hello Sophia. It has been a very long while. Congrats on winning the F4 title. Knew you could do it.

Sophia: Took a while but got the job done. You think I will be in that seat in the future?

Celes: Oh I know for a fact that you can get into that seat for sure. It will just take quite a while Sophia. For now, I'm just enjoying. You got some briefing later am I correct.

Sophia smiled: Yup. You know. Even though tomorrow is my second time in the f1 car, it still feels unbelievable how real it feels to drive one.

Celes chuckled: I know. Even after my first full season it still feels unbelievable how real driving an f1 car feels. I always chuckle on how much I enjoy racing these cars. It's something that will never get old.
