Pablo's POV:

We started searching for Luan, we told the rest of the F1 and F1 young drivers so they could help us.

We had looked everywhere inside the hotel and we couldn't find him.

We decided to search around the hotel and we found him sitting in a street crying.

He had his face covered in small bruises like his hands and arms.

-Luan!!- Carlos
-Carlos!!- Luan

Carlos hugged Luan and also picked him up letting him cry in his shoulder.

-Shhh, ¿qué pasó peque? (Shh what happened?)- Carlos
-Unos niños me golpearon diciendo que soy el peor piloto del mundo (some kids hit me saying that I'm the worst driver in the world)- Luan
-Shh no les hagas caso, eres de los mejores peque (Shh don't listen to them, you are one of the bests)- Carlos

Carlos' POV:

Hearing what my brother said made me want to kill those kids.

I looked back to the rest of the guys.

-Is he okay?- Julian
-Yes Jul don't worry- Carlos

We went back to the hotel where we all went to Fernando's room so he could heal my brother.

We were waiting talking while Fernando was in the bathroom with my brother.

-Who did that to Luan?- Lance
-Some kids, they also said that he was the worst driver in the world- Carlos
-I want to kill them- Alex (W)
-I know Alex, I do too, but now we need to leave those thoughts aside and make sure that my brother is confident of himself- Carlos
-Did y'all read the comments under his last Instagram post?- Mikas
-Yes I think we all did- Ethan
-I hate this kind of people- Max
-Everyone does- Lewis

We heard the bathroom door open and my brother came running to me.

-Ya está, será mejor que te quedes con él por la noche Carlos (All done, it think it'll be the best if you stay with him tonight Carlos)- Fernando

I nodded at Fernando's words.

We all left the room and I told Alex that Luan was staying with me tonight.

-I understood what Fernando said, remember I know a little of spanish thanks to Luan- Alex
-I forgot about that, night Alex, see you tomorrow- Carlos
-Night see ya- Alex

Once in my room I got the both of us in my bed.

Luan was already asleep.

I hate the people that do this, I hope that he'll be able to drive tomorrow.

Andriy's POV:

Saturday, finally.

After what happened yesterday night we all were worried about Luan but when we saw him enter the paddock we new he was okay.

We did FP3 were I ended P13 and now it was time for quali.

I made it to Q3 this time.

The starting grid for tomorrow will be:

P1 Alex Woods

P2 Dylan Verstappen

P3 Luan Sainz 

P4 Mikas Bottas

P5 Ricky Herrman

P6 Julian Schumacher

P7 Ethan Stroll

P8 Pablo Díaz

P9 Théo Laurent

P10 Andriy Zinchenko

P11 Ilias Diakos

P12 Noah Davis

P13 Eric Johns

P14 Joshua Hansen

P15 Conrad Müller

P16 Luca Bruno

P17 Nilas Christensen

P18 Niko Jukić

P19 Matías Rodríguez

P20 João Costa 

Luan is really incredible. After what happened yesterday, and driving under pain he still managed to get a P3, if that's not a good driver then I don't know what it is. 

Well now it is time to go to sleep and wait for tomorrows race.

Conrad's POV:

Sunday and starting in the best position I've qualified so far. The upgrades are working pretty well in our Alpha Tauri, hope it stays like this for a while.

Anyway time to start the race, woah!

Lap 1/58

-Conrad that's a red flag- Engineer
-Who crashed?- Conrad
-Costa and Matías crashed into each other, they are both okay- Engineer

I drove back and once the red flag ended we started racing again.

Lap 23/58

-Conrad red flag again, Laurent out- Engineer
-Is he okay?- Conrad
-Yes he answer his engineer- Engineer

The second red flag of the day, we waited and now it was finally time to race again.

Lap 49/58

-Conrad red flag again, Bruno, Andriy and Diakos are out and they are okay- Engineer

Another red flag?! 

This is incredible.

Now it was time to finish this race.

-Engineer that's P12 Conrad- Engineer
-Woah!!- Conrad

The race ended like this:

P1 Alex Woods

P2 Luan Sainz 

P3 Ricky Herrman

P4 Dylan Verstappen

P5 Mikas Bottas

P6 Julian Schumacher

P7 Pablo Díaz

P8 Ethan Stroll

P9 Noah Davis

P10 Eric Johns

P11 Joshua Hansen

P12 Conrad Müller

P13 Niko Jukić

P16 Andriy Zinchenko DNF

P17 Ilias Diakos DNF

P18 Luca Bruno DNF

P19 Matías Rodríguez DNF

P20 João Costa DNF

I still can't believe that Luan managed to get a P2 racing under pain, this kid is really unbelievable.

Alex made the Australian Anthem sound at his home race making all the Australians proud that he won his home GP.

After watching the podium and doing a few interviews we finally went back to the hotel.

We have three weeks before going to Azerbaijan.

Time for some vacations woah!!
