"It's so good to have you home after two long weeks, Hannah." her mum, Alison smiles as she greets her youngest. "I've certainty missed your cooking mama." Hannah smiles as she walks into her family home in Kings Lynn as Alison shuts the door behind her.
"Steve! Hannah's home!" Alison calls to her husband who's sat in the living room. "Would have thought you would have moved to Monaco and lived with your brother by now since your in F2." Steve jokes as he walks into the passage. "I love George and all but I don't want to third wheel my own brother." Hannah laughs as she hugs her dad. "Well, it's lovely to have you home, Hannah." Steve smiles as he returns his daughters hug.
"I'm off to unpack and then steal George's old sim and do some practice. What's for tea?" Hannah asks as she takes her suitcase and bag. "Beef stew. It'll be ready for half past 6." Alison smiles as her youngest nods before heading upstairs. The DAMS driver unpacks, piling her dirty clothes into a set of similar colours to wash once her tea was out the way. If there's one thing Hannah hates it's waiting for her clothes to be washed and she'd rather them be done straight away, ready for her next adventure.
The blonde girl heads onto George's old sim, both of them used to take turns practicing on it before she got hers installed but she was in the process of upgrading new bits on it so was using George's old one for the meantime. Her older brother didn't seem to mind that she was making use of it while he was in Monaco.
The girl messages Ollie and Arthur to see if they wanted to do a quick stream. "Sure. Charles is annoying me" Arthur typed back and Ollie's reply read, "Anything to lock my bedroom door and keep Thomas and Amalie out my room." The girl laughed as she switched George's twitch to hers. She set it up and ensured that the viewers could see her and the screen.
"Hello guys. I'm just waiting for tweedle dee and tweedle dumb then we can go racing on the sim." Hannah laughs as the viewers flood in. "So, we are on George's sim as I'm in the process of fixing mine but I have been away for two weeks for the F2. How is everyone?" the girl smiles as comments come in rapidly.
"Hannah." a voice says as they join the stream. "Hi Arthur. We're just waiting for Ollie then we can race on the Australia track." Hannah says as she grabs her phone to message Ollie. "Hurry up, me and Arthur are waiting" Hannah messages him before placing her phone back down as there's a knock on the door. She removes her headset before turning to the door.
"Yeah?" she calls and her mum sticks her head through the door. "I've brought you a drink, sweetheart. Dad's put tea on now so it's ready for the time I said." Alison smiles, placing Hannah's cup on the side. "Thanks Mama." the blonde 19-year-old smiles before her mum leaves the room and she turns back to her game. "I have time to fit in one race before my tea is done the I can get one more in before I need to do my night stuff." Hannah informs Arthur as Ollie joins. "Cool." Arthur says. "So what track are we doing?" the Prema driver asks.
"We will be doing Australia since that is the grand prix coming up." Hannah says as she adjusts some bits to get car on the sim. "Fair enough. Are we doing qualifying or choosing our own grid positions?" Ollie asks. "Own grid positions. I'm going back of the grid so you two can take everyone out for me." Hannah says, locking her position. "Who have you replaced? Max or Sergio?" Arthur asks. "Max. Give everyone a chance." Hannah laughs while Arthur and Ollie have completely replaced Charles and Carlos. "Ready boys?" the girl smiles as she loads the game.
The three race around the Melbourne circuit, laughing and talking as the do so. "Can you two stop forcing me off! I'm being penalized for nothing!" Arthur shouts as Hannah and Ollie laugh. The Monagasque is currently P4 but rapidly dropping while Hannah sits P12 and Ollie P3. "Oh cheer up Arth, it's a bit of fun." Hannah says as she stops laughing.
"Arthur, why are you shouting?" Charles' voice asks in the background. Hannah mutes her mic as she bursts out laughing again. The girl as well as the brunette brit listen as Arthur and Charles bicker for a little while, laughing as well at the same time.
After the chaos settled, the three continued to race and Hannah finished in P2, Ollie in P3 and Arthur in P5. "Ugh, we all could have been on podium." Arthur groans frustratedly. "Oh well. Lewis was way ahead of us. I'm going for my tea but then we can do Silverstone or another european track." Hannah says. "Sure. See you in a bit." Arthur says before disappearing himself. "Look after my chat, Ol." Hannah says before she removes her headset and going downstairs for some food.
Over the rest of the night, the trio raced on the Monaco and Silverstone tracks before they all came offline. The blonde girl removed the makeup she had on, put when hair into a messy bun and washed her face before changing and heading into her bedroom and going to sleep.
