Margot Garcia wasn't loved. Not by the media, not by the fans, not by anyone. Climbing to the top of Formula 1 without any support is ruthless. Especially when the entire paddock is wishing for your downfall. And especially when one particular driver wants to see you burn. Margot Garcia and Max Verstappen have always driven like they wanted to kill each other. They are the kind of rivals who make every lap feel like a battlefield. Everyone thinks their hatred is simple... but nothing between them ever is. No one remembers when it started, and neither of them is willing to explain it. But the tension between them? It's too sharp, too charged, too... complicated to be just rivalry. This story is a work of fiction. Some of the information presented is not consistent with reality. English is not my first language.
