At 24, Esther Wolff is not your typical face in the glamorous world of Formula 1. Sharp-tongued, emotionally guarded, and alarmingly brilliant, she holds a BA in Communications from UCL and a freshly-minted position as a junior PR officer for the Mercedes-AMG Petronas Formula One Team. But her place in the paddock isn't just professional-it's deeply personal.
Adopted at 20 by Mercedes team principal Toto Wolff and his wife Susie, Esther has finally found a family that feels like home. Yet, no amount of affection can erase the trauma etched into her past-the death of her biological father, a horrific loss she witnessed at seventeen, still haunts her dreams and her waking life.
Now 24, thrown into the fast-paced, high-stakes F1 circus, Esther must navigate power games, press junkets, and the eyes of a world that's quick to judge. With her emotionally complex personality-often misread as narcissistic or cold-she struggles to let anyone in. But a slow-burning bond with an unexpected driver, and buried secrets from her past beginning to unravel, might force her to confront her fears of vulnerability... and trust.
As she battles expectations and redefines her identity-not just as Toto Wolff's daughter but as a woman standing on her own-Esther will discover that sometimes, family isn't just the one that finds you... it's the one you fight for.
(Please be advised, to read this with an open mind. I will not specifically mention the year this happens, because this will give me more creative liberty.
Also. I love the f1 wags. But in this story I had to change it up abit. I hold deep respect for all the girls and what they do.)
