The spanish qualifying had went quite in lolitas favour yesterday with her scoring pole behind max, it was definitely safe to say it was a big step up from last years spanish gran prix where she had placed 10th.
To say that seeing max that morning hadn't brought up the memory of seeing faded lipstick above his collars last night in the hotel hallway would of been a lie.
It wasn't that it had exactly bothered her because max could do whatever the hell he wanted but she thought he would have atleast had a bit of brain to cover it up in case paparazzi had seen. Gross.
So here Lolita sat on the Sunday surrounded by the sound of humming engines begging for the drivers to press down on the throttle accompanied by the sound of a cheering crowd.
Heart thumping and taking deep breaths, Lolita flicked down her visor and gripped onto the steering wheel tightly as the 5 red lights lit one by one above the cars as the time had came for the Spanish race
And their off! A commentator could be heard saying as the red lights disappeared into green lights.
Showtime. ___________________________________
"How am i looking" lolitas voice rang through the teams headsets as she pressed the radio buttons. At the moment q1 and q2 had went quiet smoothly for both redbull drivers
'Your doing great lita, your currently p2' Alex's voice could be heard through the radio 'the order so far is verstappen, you then Norris who is 8.1 behind you'
Now this had lita excited but she knew not to get to excited because it could all change in a matter of seconds, she just needed to keep her head down and focus for the last 4 minutes of the race
'What's the gap between verstappen and I' lita asked curiously, she knew the car couldn't be to far ahead since she could see it clearly
'He is about 10.482 ahead of you' Alex confirmed 'if you gain enough speed on this last lap you should be able to have a chance of over taking' now this is something lita liked the sound off
With that lita let go off the radio button and turned her whole attention back to the front of her, more importantly pressing down on the throttle
Immediately the redbull car increased in speed, the sound of the engine increasing but as lita slowly started to gain on max, lando started to try gain on her
' max that is three minutes left' max heard through the radio 'p1 keep it up. watch out though lita is gaining on you she's about 7.453 behind you'
Max's cursed under his breath but decided to ignore the radio, he knew he couldn't underestimate lita the more she gained on him so he'd have to play his cards right and keep defending
As the three cars came to the next turn lando saw it as his chance to try over take lita while she slowed down for the corner and tried focusing on over taking max
However she had went to the inner side of the track basically beside max causing it to be more tricky that lando had immediately presumed causing the cars to become a little to closer to comfort, leaving him to fall back
Unfortunately on the pull back lando had bumped the back of litas car...
as lita overcame the corner and focused on max, their cars fell side to side with one fighting to stay in-front and the other trying to get in front
During this it was when an unexpected lita felt the bump of landos car causing the car to swerve slight with a tire from litas car and one from maxs barely skimming each other causing her to slow down a bit to stay in control and a shocked max to pull wide allowing him to stay ahead.
'Lita are you okay?' A concerned voice by Alex was heard through her radio and she passed the finish line as a concerned voice asked max the same
'Yeah I'm fine I just didn't expect to get a bump from lando' lita reassured she was fine as her ears were filled from cheering from the crowd as she finished p2 'that was an amazing race, thanks Alex' _________________________________
The second that lita stepped out of her car, she pulled off her helmet and was immediately overwhelmed by the sound of screaming fans as she ran over to Tori, the blonde pulling her into a hug immediately
"Girl, you did fucking amazing" lita laughed at the girl who was squeezing her tightly "jeez Tori, I need to breath"
"Sorry" Tori offered a sheepish but excited smile as she pulled back from the hug beaming.
Lita looked around at the crowd and waved excitedly as lando got out of his own car excitedly with a happy but obviously pissed max following suit
"lolly are you okay?" Lando walked over to the girl as he wrapped his arms around her and lifting her easily causing her to giggle
"I'm fine, congratulations on p3 lando" she happily returned the hug as she was put back down on her feet by a relieved lando
"you too lolly" he grinned as he was signalled over to his team leaving lita be. Since Tori had disappeared lita made her way back into the redbull garage to get ready for the podium
However the second she stepped into the garage as set of hands roughly grabbed her forearms and twisted her around to face them. Max.
"What the fuck was that" max snapped causing litas eyes to widen slightly but played it off
"Congratulations on your win too" she hummed sarcastically which only caused maxs eyes to narrow further "oh don't bull shit me lonnie you know exactly what I'm on about, that little stunt of yours wasn't funny you could of pushed me off tracks"
"It wasn't my fault" she felt his hands clamped on her upper arms tighten "How was I ment to know lando was gonna bump me by accident"
"you should of just defended your position instead of trying to take mine" the grip on her arms has begun to hurt now
"it was an accident I'm sorry" at this rate everyone in the red-bull garage and some reporters were starring quietly at the two.
"Sorry doesn't cut it lonnie. If that happens again I'll make sure it's more than just a little graze on your tires" his tone was cold, threatening. If looks could kill, lita would of died the second she stepped into the red bull garage two years ago.
As max's blue eyes bore down into the litas honey coloured ones he took a second to take a deep breath before retracting his grip on her arms, he knew it was probably a lot tighter than he intended
"I'll see you on the podium" he shot her one last pissed look before walking off leaving the brunette girl to do nothing but watch with stinging in her arms
Looking around she suddenly realised that everyone's eyes was on her and had watched the unsurprising interaction. She felt like snapping what are you looking at but she knew better and turned to walk off herself.
