hi, scottie.
i fucked up.
its times like these that charlotte would always fire out everything positive in my life... everything that i've accomplished so far in F1.
every positive she'd give today tho, the negative is clear as day.
i score points in 15 consecutive races and have an amazing start, i have to retire the car due to a huge shunt at the first corner and lose the longest running point finishes of the season.
i score my highest ever finish in my F1 career, it's overshadowed by the first mclaren 1-2 in 12 years.
i score my first pole position, i make mistakes in the race when it counts and lose out on the win. my first win.
i feel like mclaren are finally were we need to be—where we deserve to be, our 2022 car seems to be uncompetitive on the slow corners.
none of it matters anyway.
i finished 15th today and neither charlotte nor you are here to make me forget about all of the bad.
i've come to realise that it's a lot harder to pull myself out of the hole without you in my life, by my side, rooting for me.
i feel like every bit of luck i've had growing up, especially in my career, has been down to you. you're my good luck charm. and now that i don't have you anymore, my luck's running out.
i want you back, scottie.
i need you back.
NOTES ! what a race omggg
i'm so so sad for mclaren and despite what the texts say in this chapter, or how you may interpret them, i still feel like mclaren have SOOO much potential to be back up racing where we saw them last year! this is only the first race, the team still has a lot to learn about this new car and i'm hoping and praying that it'll all work out for them :)
