Kimi Antonelli sees a beautiful girl in the Mercedes garage and immediately develops a catastrophic crush. Unfortunately, nobody will tell him who she is. Over the course of one race weekend, Kimi comes to several increasingly unhinged conclusions, including: Toto Wolff's secret daughter, a Mercedes spy and, most disastrously, Peter "Bono" Bonnington's controversially younger girlfriend.

IN WHICH,, Odessa hadn't known love until she met Kimi, and now he's all she wants.

Lando Norris has a very reasonable theory: Oscar Piastri's girlfriend, Violet, is probably going to murder him. Evidence includes the black clothes, the braids, the lace parasol, the unsettling hobbies, and the snake named Belladonna. Oscar insists she's just shy. Lando remains unconvinced.

McKenna Hayes thinks she has period cramps. Lando Norris thinks maybe, possibly, his girlfriend needs better painkillers. Neither of them thinks they're about to leave the hospital with a baby.

Charlotte Fischer has spent years making sure no one in Formula One knows who she really is. At Red Bull, she is simply Charlotte: Cambridge graduate, simulator engineer, owner of a deeply judgmental cat, and the woman responsible for making the team's broken 2025 car model finally tell the truth. She prefers it that way. No family name. No questions. No one looking at her like she is someone's daughter, someone's mistake, or someone's failure to protect. Max Verstappen notices her anyway.

Lando Norris has been designing helmets with Fern Fletcher since karting. Flames, lightning bolts, bad emails, worse ideas - she's been making him look like himself since before anyone else was watching. So when Lando wins the championship, there's only one way to ask the girl who designed every version of him to marry him: with a white Sharpie and a championship helmet.

Oscar expected a normal MTC tour. He did not expect Lando Norris to suddenly reveal fluency in sign language, a year-long hidden relationship, and the fact that Oscar apparently has a sign name that involves an adorable marsupial. Meanwhile, Lando just wants to go home to his girlfriend and tell her about the kid who made his whole day.

Meredith never planned on falling in love with her best friend - especially not the one who drives 300 km/h for a living and eats like pancakes are a survival requirement. Lando never planned on saying anything - especially not at 2 AM, drunk, outside her hotel room after winning Silverstone.
