The Formula 1 grid didn't want another team but one appeared anyway. With a reputation to rival Ferrari, Lamborghini was ready to take their place on the grid. Wanting to showcase a level of stability, even if the first year didn't bring results, th...

"I'm pregnant. Oh look a baby...we're having a baby...no all these sound ridiculous."
"It's not ridiculous to just say 'I'm pregnant', Marissa," Lucia Romono chuckled.
"It makes it sound like I'm baby-trapping him!" Marissa whined. "We wanted this and I want to make it sound like we did!"
Marissa Romono could only think about telling her boyfriend that they were finally going to get the baby they had wanted. She'd given it a few weeks, just to come to terms with it and make sure she got the all clear — though she was aware anything could happen at any time — before telling Daniel.
"Don't overthink it," Lucia warned. "He's going to be thrilled either way."
Daniel was visiting Scotty, who Marissa greatly adored. He'd asked Marissa to go since Scotty's wife Chloe would also be there but Marissa had needed to talk to her mother while no one was around so they were meeting in Texas.
"Tell him before the race weekend, maybe he'll drive better," Lucia joked as they walked towards the plane.
Marissa grinned. Despite her mother's joking, she genuinely thought that was the best idea to come up with and her brain felt a little buzz from knowing she was about to give Daniel Ricciardo the best news of his life.
Then she hesitated.
"What if he asks me to marry him just because we'll have a kid?"
"Marissa, Daniel wouldn't have wanted a child if he didn't intend to spend the rest of his life with you," Lucia smiled. "Between me and you, he's already asked for my permission. He just need to find the right moment."
"Knowing Danny, he'd ask me in Vegas," Marissa snorted.
"Would you want not want him to?"
"I love Vegas — I don't care where he asks me," Marissa shrugged. "I mean...in my head it's all planned perfectly and I'm more worried Daniel won't want it to be the way I want it."
"You worry too much," Lucia chuckled. "How do you want it to be?"
"I want to get married in Italy, with our family and friends, far away from the media...in a castle," Marissa answered sheepishly. "I'd ask Mira to be my maid of honour. Robyn, Chloe and Sophie as Bridesmaids. Danny would probably ask Scotty to be his best man."
Sophie was someone Marissa was friends with back in Italy, though she didn't have the time to constantly visit up in Rome. She tried her best. Mira and Marissa were the closest and Marissa knew she'd trust her with anything. Scotty James was Daniel's best friend, an Australian snowboarder who Marissa adored, alongside his wife Chloe.
