11- Cars aren't the only thing being tested

Luckily for me it didn't take me long to find Ahmed since he was wearing the same kit as me. He was such a sweet man who reassured me that I had freedom to do as seem fit when alone and that we would work as team when together. When I finished checking out the consultation office the doctor suggested that after the lunchbreak I go check some other teams medical suplies just to make sure everything was in order. I would but please I need some food in my body. 

I went to McLaren's cantine, got some delicious looking tortilla and procedded to look for a place to seat. It didn't take long at all for a curly haired aussie's gesture that I sat down at his table.

- Hi Daniel! Do you mind if I sit?

- Go for it, Sass - he stood up from his sit to give me quick hug while his typical smile was his his face - this is Sass a good friend of mine - I gave everyone at the table a quick smile and saw who was sitting. I only recognised Lando and Daniel but there was another man who look to be in his fifties. Daniel's side was only him so he scooted over to let me sit.

- So nice to meet you I'm Alexandra Arnoult the new team nurse - I extended my hand and I shook Lando and the other man's hand - you must be Lando and...?

- Adam Norris, his father.

- Great to know you Sir. Excited for the new season Lando?

- Yeah gotta be teamleader now you know? - he joked - Nah, but quite excited actually even though we don't know how everything is going to go, but still. What about you? How are you finding us? - he wigled his brows at his own joke.

- Every person I've met here has been nice to me so far. They better be just in case whenever I treat them I don't mess my inyections too many times. But yeah, I have to go to all other teams to check the medical supplies after this so it's going to be a long day cause I want to as many as I can.

- Oh, when going to Ferrari do you mind giving Carlos back a hoodie I took from him last week? If it's not to much of of bother I mean. We are going to be doing media duties all day so I don't have time- Lando said.

- No, no, I will do Ferrari today I don't mind - he smiled. 

The rest of the lunch break I spoke a bit with Mr. Norris while the racers talked about the best breaking balance and sooner than later I was carrying a few boxes of bandages wobbling into the garage rosso. As soon as I reached the pitlane access I placed the boxes on the nearerst countertop to catch my breath for a second.

- Excuse me miss do you need help with those? - a voice sounded from behind me. As I turn around a pair of emerald eyes meet me. 

- Not really, I just have to find Sainz first and then the Ferrari medical office, so it would be great if you could help me with that. McLaren medic Alexandra Arnoult by the way.

- Ferrari driver Charles Leclerc - he leaned in to kiss my cheek. I took the chance to look at him more closely. His sharp but delicate features contrasted his strong neck but his gentle demanour tied it all together pretty nicely. He also smelled like one of my mum's perfumes and that's the way to my heart.- And sure I can help you, chérie - he easily took the boxes and put his hand out for me to take. Not even a seocnd later after I take his hand, he starts quickly walking through the dense mass of red workers with ease while I strongly held his hand not to fall behind - Carlos!

- Yeah, mate? - the other Ferrari driver soon came into my view as well - Oh who do we have here?

- Alexandra. Lando gave me this for you I was carrying stuff so hope you don't mind that I put it on - he smiled and motioned no with his head. I swiftly took it off and gave it to him.

- Are you new to McLaren? I didn't see you when I was back there - Carlos said.

- Yes, one of the five new who just started. FIA wants to make a medical team compulsory for 2026 but McLaren decided to employ me as an emergency nurse earlier. I am also to loan on occasion for other teams so you may see me roam around everywhere. 

- That's great! No more stupid hot packs for tendon breaks. Right Charles? - I look at the Monagasque like he had grown a second head as it is the opposite of what you should do.

- NAAAAAAAH - well that was the most french sounding no I've heard in my life - I just confused the words hot and cold when you asked. I am not stupid. 

- Well, if you say so - says Carlos while making a face to me implying Charles is indeed a bit silly. Not a second later they way pushing eachother like toddlers.

- I would love to see who wins but I'm afraid I'm running short on time so the banter may wait for another time - I flashed a smile to the drivers while they waved me goodbye. 

The tanned beauty could not see backwards as she walked towards the offices but the burning gaze of the pilots of the pranzing horse was burning into her back. The woman caused an impression just by her looks alone but it was the way she carried herself that impressed the drivers. She was probably the only new team member who had introduced themself to them so non chalantly which was rare as both had been in the sport for quite a few years already. Both drivers knew that she was something special but whatever drivers wanted, drivers needed to chase after.

Shall the best racecraft win her soul.
