*your dad (Christian) looks at you and chuckles*
Christian: I have raised a smart one, why can't you be more like your sister, Jason?

Y/n: Hey Max
*Max spins around, not knowing you are there He comes and gives you a big hug.*
Max: I thought you said you couldn't make it.
Y/n: Change of plans; now I can go out and see you kill it.
*You see Lando walk past, and he waves to Max. You have always had a big crush on Lando but were too scared to tell him. You end up going for a walk around the paddock to get food and say hi to all the drivers*
Y/n: Hey Carlos are you going to try not to crash today?
*You and Carlos have always been close and you always joke around*
Carlos: I am ready Just wait and see I will be chasing Max.
Y/n: Famous last words.
*You walk away giggling. You start to get nervous as you approach the McLaren garage, you have talked to Lando so many times but You always get nervous*
Y/n: Hey Lando, how are you feeling today?
Lando: I am feeling confident and ready to go out and hopefully get on the podium.
Y/n: Well, good luck I will be watching.

Y/n: Nothing, just happy to get food.

*you say to Jason as you put your headphones on to get ready to watch Qualifying. You sit there intently watching Lando, hoping he does well. Lando spins out and crashes into the wall You jump up and run over to your dad on the pit wall to see if he is ok.*
Y/n: Dad, is Lando okay? That was a big hit.
Christian: Yeah, he is okay, he is talking to us and hopping out of the car.
*You sigh in relief, knowing that he is ok. When he comes back into the pit lane in the safety car you run over to check on him and make sure he is ok.*
Y/n: Lando, are you ok?
Lando: Yeah, I am ok, just pushed a bit too much, but oh well, I still have a good starting spot for tomorrow we just have to hope they can fix the car.
