When that secret knock sounded on the doors of the drivers hotel rooms, they knew what was going on. The knocks were followed by giggles and hushed whispers but when the driver inside the room emerged from within, the hallway would be completely empty.

They all suspected that it was Emilia and Daniel - the two were known for causing trouble.

And their beliefs were confirmed when the drivers headed down to the lobby to find the two of them waiting for everyone to show up, dressed in black shorts and large hoodies.

Emilia was kicking a football between her feet without even having to look at it.

"What have you two got planned?" Lewis asks quietly as he approaches.

"Something big by the looks of it." Sebastian sighs, turning to face the Brit.

Seeing that pretty much everyone was there, Carlos and Fernando being the last two were jogging across the hotel lobby towards the group. Emilia effortlessly kicked the football up into the air and towards Kimi who caught it in his hands and spun it around, looking up at the woman who just smirked and shrugged, trying not to laugh at the confusion that laced the faces of almost everyone around her as she stood up.

"Fancy a game of football on the track?" She questions.

Everyone began beaming in excitement, even Sebastian, until he went over her words again.

"Wait-on the track!?" He whisper-shouts.

"Yeah." Emilia shrugs. "Why not?"

"Er, because of security, Em!" He replies.

"Oh lighten up Seb." Kimi nudges his teammate in the ribs, throwing the ball back to Emilia who caught it with a smile and nodded at Sebastian whilst she walked backwards. "Its a bit of fun."

"Either way, we called security." Daniel says from where he was walking with Max.

"You what!?"

"First you complain that we can't go because of security now your complaining because we told security we were coming." Emilia grumbles.

"They said it was fine and that they wouldn't tell the team principals." Daniel shrugs.

"How much did you pay them?" Lewis asks with a laugh.

"Not much." Emilia shrugs. "Oh come on Seb, it'll be like old times!"

The German man did finally give in, the cheers of the other drivers as he finally muttered the word 'fine' with a smile on his face as Emilia pumped her fist.

The Brazilian woman spun on her heels, converse hitting the ground as he held the football in her hands and rushed towards Daniel who smiled when he saw her and placed his arm over her shoulders. Hearing Kimi shout for the ball, Emilia looked over her shoulders and threw it backwards over her head, laughing when heard the gasps when Kimi caught the football and casually went back to chatting with Lewis and Sebastian.

To get to the track from the hotel, they walked along the main roads. Trying to stay incognito and it was pretty easy when it was dark and they were dressed like the next person.

Upon reaching the track, Daniel and Emilia led the group away from the main entrance which is when the older members of the grid realised that they were going to go through the old entrance which a young Kimi Raikkonen, Jenson Button and Michael Schumacher had created back in the day which had then been passed down through the grid to the younger generation.

Daniel climbed through the hole in the fence first and Sebastian was quick to follow - having dropped his whole parent act for the first time in a while and was actually encouraging the chaos - both of them then helped Emilia through and the rest of the grid followed. The younger generation (Max, Charles, Pierre, Esteban, Lance, Carlos etc) all being shocked and confused at the way the older drivers were laughing and joking around and how they even knew this way to in existed.
