Venter looses the lead due to collision with ocon
Can Venter shake it off before Japan?
History repeats itself as Ocon takes out a leading Red Bull while being lapped
Heartbreak is the national anthem for Venter as she is knocked out of first place
I lock my phone and place it on the table infront of me. I had to go to the hospital for x-rays and scans this afternoon and they eventually discharged me about an hour and a half ago. I came back to the paddock and the photographers swarmed me but I managed to get through and into the Red Bull hospitality suite without hurting my already bruised ribs even more. Thankfully the scans showed no broken bones which I am very grateful for. Just some bruising on my ribs and thighs from the impact but other than that I'm perfectly ok. I sigh. "What's up?" Zee asks me. "Just the internet, that's all." I say with a small laugh and she nods, understanding. Then Max almost runs through the entrance door frantically looking around before he spots me sitting with Zee. He speed walks over. "Are you ok?" He asks, like a protective older brother. "I'm ok, just bruised." I say to him and he sighs in relief. "I was so worried when I saw Ocon hit you in front of me. You skated along the gravel at a high speed and I was so worried. I'm so glad you're ok." He says patting my head before taking a seat next to me. "What happened after that crash?" I asked him. "Well the red flag lasted about half an hour as they fixed the barrier but then we restarted with me in the lead. Lando finished second and Oscar third." Max says and I gasp. "Oscar got a podium at his home race?" I ask him and Max nods with a smile. "That's awesome. I have to go congratulate him. Is he still here?" I ask, standing up slowly. Wincing at the sharp pain skating up my side. "Yeah, just saw him walk into the McLaren hospitality center." I nod a thanks before walking off in the direction of McLaren.
I spot a familiar face walking down the mclaren steps as I walk towards them. "Oscar." I say and his eyes snap up, meeting mine. He rushes over to me and gently pulls me into his chest. I wrap my arms around his torso as he holds me close. I feel him sigh into my hair and I can hear his heart beat quickly but it's slowing down. We stand there for a few minutes before he whispers. "I was so worried." He says into my hair. "I'm ok, just some bruised ribs and other bruises but nothing broken or fractured." I say, reassuring him. His arms tighten around me which caused searing pain to course through my body and my body tenses. "Oh fuck sorry Han." He says putting distance between us. "It's ok." I say to him. "I wanted to congratulate you on your podium. First Aussie to podium at their home race. I'm so proud of you." I smile up at him. A smile covers his face. "Thank you, that really means a lot." He says before pulling me into a hug again. "I'm just so glad that you are ok." He says. He was very worried about someone who he obviously considers a friend but people react to situations differently I guess. Yet my heart decides to take it as a hint that he likes me back. Which is impossible.
Oscar let's go of the hug and as he is about to say something, a man appears from behind Oscar. "Hey Oscar, we're going to head off. Well done today buddy." He says, hugging Oscar. "Thanks dad." Oscar says with a smile before letting go of the hug. A lady appears next to the man and Oscar hugs her too. "Thanks mom." He says before turning to me. "Mom, dad, this is Hannah. She drives for Red Bull." Oscar says. His mom pushes him out the way. "Oh I know exactly who this wonderful lady is, give me a hug sweetheart. Are you feeling ok after this afternoon? That was quite intense." She says all in one go, lightly hugging me. "Yeah I'm feeling much better thanks. Just some bruises, that's all." I smile at her. "Ok I'm glad. Well if you need anything, Oscar will help you." She says to me before throwing a look at Oscar. I laugh slightly before turning back to Oscar's mom. Oscar looks confused at his mom. "I bumped into her the other day darling, literally." She says which causes her and I to laugh.

I grab some water and head to my shower. Ever since I got back to my apartment in Monaco, Zee has me doing some very low intensity workouts that I must do until the bruising heals. I dry off and slowly put on some loose clothing. My ribs feeling better but still not healed as it's only been 3 days since the accident. I walk out my room when a knock echoes at my door. I open the door to find my mentor standing in the hallway. "Seb!" I yell and softly tackle him in a hug. "Hello Hannah. It's nice to see you again." He says, his German accent hitting my ears before letting me go and we walk into my apartment.
