** Cassie's pov **
It was another race weekend. Yet this one I had a completely different job to do. Disregarding everything Social Media, my number one job was to help around a newcomer. Ollie Bearman.
My good friend Carlos Sainz had been sick all week, which culminated in the diagnosis of Appendicitis on Thursday. Friday morning it was released that he wouldn't take place for the rest of the weekend. Ollie, an F2 driver for Prema, would take his place until he got back.
When I first got invited officially to do press for the teams and drivers I was unbelievably nervous and anxious. That was just doing little interviews and recording little games.
This was his first official race of his career. At least in a Formula 1 car.
Ferrari had reached out to me wanting someone kind to help guide him and his father around the paddock and track. So that's what I was doing right now. Or well at least waiting for them to arrive at the check in scanners.
"Cassie Lee!" a familiar voice sounded out from behind me.
Spinning around on my heel I grinned, "Why are you always screaming at me?" I questioned with a teasingly annoyed tone of voice.
The body of Alex Albon came crashing into mine as he tried to knock me over. Very quickly when I had become a more frequent interviewer during the press couch and after race press, Alex had reached out and we quickly became friends. It certainly helped with the more difficult parts of being one the only Asian media people.
"What are you doing here anyways?" Albon asked after he helped me rebalance myself.
Glancing back over towards the crowd of people trying to get in through the scanners I let out a small breath, "I'm waiting for the Bearman's. Fred asked me to give them the tour and help them if they need anything.".
Alex nodded his head and glanced around the area around us, "Well I guess I will let you get on with that. I've got to go bully Logan!" he exclaimed with a wide smile.
Immediately I spun around and smacked the man's arm, "You be nice to Logie'! He's my bestie." I smiled.
Before he could respond back to me I spotted a Ferrari gear clad father and sod duo walking through the pass scanners. Jumping up and straightening my posture I started waving goodbye to my friend, "Oh I see them! I've gotta go!" I exclaimed and started speed walking away.
As soon as they crossed through after their passes got accepted I tried my best to hurry over towards them without falling over. "Ollie! Mr. Bearman!" my voice cutting through the loudness and catching their attention.
