Aaliyahs pov:As I pulled up to the storage center, Lando hopped out of the car and assured me he'd only be a few minutes. He walked off to find his storage unit, leaving me to wait in anticipation. "Mamma why are we here?" Mattheo asks. I turn around in my seat and answer. "Lando needs to pick his car you and then we will be on our way to the McLaren centre." "Ok mamma, how long will the journey be?" Mattheo asks curiously. I turn to my phone and wrote the address into my maps. "It will take us about 45 minutes" I say to Mattheo. "Ok mamma" he says as he turn his attention back to his toys he was playing with. After a few minutes, the unmistakable roar of Lando's McLaren engine filled the air. He pulled up beside my car, a mischievous grin on his face, and said, "I'll lead the way to the McLaren Technology Centre. Follow me!" I respond with an ok and then turn my car on,putting it into first gear and pull of behind lando.
Excitement and a touch of nerves filled the air as we embarked on our trip. We are about 25 minutes into our journey. Mattheo got bored of playing with his toys so I told him to tell me a story. Obviously he chose to tell a story about a boy becoming an f1 driver. "Once upon a time, there was a little boy named Alex who dreamed of becoming a Formula One driver. He was just four years old when he first discovered his love for racing. His parents noticed his passion and decided to nurture it by getting him into karting.
At the age of eight, Alex joined a team in small karting competitions. He would zip around the track, feeling the thrill of speed and the wind in his hair. Even though he was still young, he showed great skills and caught the attention of some racing scouts.
When Alex turned sixteen, he received an incredible opportunity. He was offered a seat in an F3 car, a stepping stone towards his Formula One dreams. Excited and wanting to show his talent to the world , he accepted the offer and began his journey in the world of professional racing.
In his rookie year in F3, Alex amazed everyone with his skills. He worked hard, sharpened his racing techniques, and won race after race. At the end of the season, he proudly became the F3 World Champion for the year 2036. It was a dream come true for the young racing.
With his impressive rookie year, Alex's talent did not go unnoticed. The following year, he was offered a seat in the highly competitive F2 series. It was for prema.He happily accepted the opportunity to challenge himself even further. In his first year in F2, he finished fourth in the championship, gaining valuable experience and learning from the best drivers in the world.
But it was in his second year in F2 that Alex truly showed his talent. He dominated the tracks, winning race after race, and finally becoming the F2 World Champion. His hard work and determination paid off, and he was ready for the next big step in his racing career.
Because of his incredible success in F2, Alex received the offer of a lifetime. The well known McLaren F1 team wanted him as one of their drivers. It was a dream come true for Alex, as he had always admired McLaren and their rich racing history.
And so, at the young age of twenty, Alex joined the McLaren F1 team, ready to take on the world's best drivers and prove himself on the biggest stage of all. He knew that the road ahead would be challenging, but with his talent, passion, and unwavering determination, he was ready to make his mark in the world of Formula One.
And that, is the incredible story of how a little four-year-old boy's dream of becoming a Formula One driver became a reality. The journey was filled with hard work, dedication, and a whole lot of passion. Who knows what amazing adventures await Alex as he continues on his Formula One career? "
"Wow Mattheo you put alot of thought into that didn't you" I say. I was shocked he came up with all of that. "Yh I did nanna helped me with it a few days ago. She wrote it down and then I drew pictures to remember what to say, I can show you them later if you want" he said proudly. "I would love to" I say with a smile a smile on my face.
After the amazing story, Mattheo went back to playing with his toys. Just as we got into a new road, a careless lorry driver started swerving in the lanes, coming dangerously close to hitting my car. It was a heart-stopping moment, and Mattheo, who was in the backseat, burst into tears. I quickly looked in the next lane to see if it is clean and then swerved into it. Lando must of looked in his mirrors because he puts his indicator on and then pulls in front of me.once it was safe to do so I. had to pull over immediately to comfort Mattheo and make sure everything was okay. I was still in shock, trembling a bit. I got out the car and rushed to get Mattheo out of his seat so I could hold him in my arms. Lando, being the caring person he is, quickly got out of his car and came over to console both Mattheo and me. He said, "Don't worry, you are safe now. Take a deep breath. You are ok. I have you, everything is going to be ok."
After Mattheo had calmed down, I carefully settled him back into his car seat, making sure he felt secure. Lando quickly pulled me into a hug and seat sweet reassuring words in my ear. "Are you ok?" He asks. "Yh I'm ok just a little shook up, I'll be fine" I said as I pulled away from him and then walked round my car to inspect it. I looked at my wing mirror and see a noticeably scratch on it. I am glad it's not too much damage and everyone is safe.
Lando returned to his car, as I got into the drivers seat and then we continued our journey towards the McLaren Technology Centre. The rest of the drive was thankfully uneventful, apart from some typical traffic. But with the music playing softly in the background and him probably wearing himself out with all the crying,Mattheo drifted off to sleep.
Just when i pulled up outside the building, Mattheo suddenly woke up, his eyes wide with excitement. He exclaimed, "We're finally here! I'm so excited!" Lando parked his car, and I parked right next to him. We all stepped out, stretching our legs after the long drive. The McLaren Technology Centre stood before us. I can't believe I am here. The history in this building is incredible. I can't wait to learn a few things.
With anticipation building, we walked towards the entrance of the building, ready to explore and immerse ourselves in the world of McLaren. The adventure had just begun, and we couldn't wait to see what awaited us inside.
