Sunday the most important day of the weekend. Emma didn't sleep that well, this was gonna be her first race and to be honest she never felt so nervous in her life. Everyone could wrote that off her face the moment she step into her pit box. Zack didn't help at all when he asked her. "Emma you nervous" "then you own me dinner" she heard Lando laugh behind her. "No I'm not why?" She asked completely Lying to her boss. "You look nervous and I know you are Emma. Don't get it in your head to much okay your gonna be fine" Zack said quietly, Emma smiled at him and walked over to her engineer. She has been talking to him for almost 40 min straight about the strategy. When she walked back to her drivers room she heard Lando singing back in his room. "Lando if I was you I would do a audition for the X factor or something" she said standing in front of the closed door. Lando immediately stop singing and started to laugh. "Thanks Em I will think about it" he shouted back and Emma walked away.

"Race time" was what her engineer told Emma. She was standing on the grid ready for the formation lap. Starting in front of Lando was funny but she needed to let him pass her. Lando is Mc Laren their first driver and Emma respects that. When the formation lap was done all eyes we're going to Emma. Then the light came up. "And it light out and away we go. Both Hamilton and Verstappen having a great start. Oh and look at Emma Da Silva what a great start from the rookie. And their goes Max Verstappen past Lewis Hamilton. Those two are gonna have a great fight for the title this season. Emma Da Silva currently drive 4th with her teammate Lando Norris behind her. They both had a great start we can tell but is Da Silva going to let him pass. Yes she is their goes Lando Norris into the 4th position. He looking for his first podium place." The commentator said at the start of the race. "And Max Verstappen crosses the line winning the first race of this season. Lewis Hamilton In second behind him and their is Lando Norris in third and yes yes Emma Da Silva in fourth. What a great weekend for Mc Laren" the commentator said at the end of the race. "P4 P4 Emma" "yesssss woooooo f*ck yes, oh I wanna thank you everyone for giving me this opportunity thank you" "no problem Emma your a great driver we're happy your on our team!" "Whooooppp" was told over the radio. "Oh and where is Lando?" "P3 Emma p3" "ahhh great job him drove insanely good this weekend".

Emma parked her car and walked over to her team. Then moment Emma hugged her PR Emily, Lando run up to the team. They were all cheering and screaming at the young Brit. He first podium in F1 a nice P3 just perfect. Emma walked over to Lando and have him a hug. "Good job Lan" she said through her helmet not sure he could hear her. He gave her a thumbs in response and walked away to the interview. Emma watch the podium ceremony and cheered Lando on. Their were so many cameras on her but she didn't even notice them she was way to proud of her teammate. After doing her interviews Emma got dressed into her normal clothes again when their was a knock on the door. "Its open" she screamed pulling het hoodie over her head. "Dinner?" Lando asked walking into her room. "Yes, let me get my stuff" Emma grab her bag and phone and walked out off the room closing the door behind her. "Where are we gonna eat?" "That's a surprise" "I hate surprises" Lande laughed at Emma her comment while they walked into the paddock.

When they finally arrived at the restaurant Emma saw it was typical Australian restaurant. The waiter brought them to their table where they took a seat. "Can i give you a drink?" The waiter asked the young friend's friendly. "Yes a white wine for me please" Emma said with a smile. "A coke please" Lando said the waiter nodded and walked away. "I didn't thought about drinking tonight" Lando joked looking into Emma her eyes. "It felt right, but I haven't drunk something in 4 months so you need to look after me" they both laughed when the waiter returned with their drinks. They took a quick look over the menu when they both ordered the same thing with knowing. The To laughed and had funny while eating and talking about the weekend. When the were done eating Emma also finished her second glass of wine and she was tipsy. "I think you own me a dessert, because of the P3" Lando laughed, Emma gave me a smirk and said. "Just tell me what kind of dessert you want Norris" She was a 100% teasing him at them moment. "You" Lando said back also with a smirk on his face. "Then let's go" Emma said while standing up she stumbled a bit over her feet but she was fine. Lando went out to pay the bill and helped her into the car. They drove back to the hotel the team stayed at for the weekend. Emma and Lando their rooms were across from each other. When Lando was about to start walk into his room Emma turned him around. He was standing so close you could feel the heat between them growing. Without thinking Emma kissed him, his started to heat up really fast and before Emma knew it herself she was pinned against the wall in his room.
