A Carlos Sainz Fanfiction Catalina Vega has spent her whole life by Carlos Sainz's side, from chasing karts around dusty Spanish tracks to cheering from the grandstands as he rose through the ranks of Formula 1. To the world, he's the golden boy of racing. To her, he's simply just Carlos, the boy who stole her heart long before fame and sponsors entered the picture. But loving your best friend is complicated. Especially when he doesn't seem to notice. When a scandal threatens to tarnish Carlos' clean image just before his debut season with Williams, his PR team comes up with a desperate plan, fake a relationship with someone trustworthy, someone the public already loves. Someone like Catalina. What starts as a carefully crafted lie soon blurs into something dangerously real. Between stolen glances, whispered Spanish confessions, and the chaos of the paddock, Catalina is forced to face the truth she's been running from: pretending to be in love with Carlos might be the one thing that finally breaks her heart. Because the cameras will stop rolling. The world will move on. But her feelings? They never learned how to fake it.

They meet at her most vulnerable time.. her younger brother is dying, and his dying wish is to meet his favourite formula 1 driver, Lewis Hamilton. With a strange turn of events. Summer finds herself meeting Charles Leclerc as her life gets turned upside down.

Lena Schumacher walked away from Formula 1 the day her father did. Not when he retired. But the day the world lost Michael Schumacher to a ski accident that left his body alive but his spirit gone. Now ten years later, she's done everything to avoid the world that stole her father: She doesn't follow the races. She didn't watch her brother drive. She's cut off every connection to the paddock ... until she meets Charles Leclerc. She doesn't know who he is. He doesn't know who she is. And for a moment, they exist as two strangers, bound not by fame or family, but by the same kind of grief they've both tried to outrun. But secrets don't stay buried long - especially in Formula 1. When Lena learns the man she's falling for races for the very sport that reminds her of everything she's lost, it feels like betrayal. When Charles finds out her last name, everything shifts. Because her father isn't just anyone. He's the reason Charles fell in love with racing. As feelings deepen and the truth unravels, they're left with a question that could destroy everything: Can love survive when the very thing that broke you is the thing keeping you apart?

"Happy?" "I am the furthest thing from happy when I'm in a room with you." ~~~~~~ At the start of the 2022 Formula One season, defending World Champion, Max Verstappen, is ready to fight once again for the title.

At the start of the 2026 Formula 1 season, reigning World Champion Max Verstappen has one goal: domination. With Red Bull gunning for perfection and legacy cementation on the line, there's no room for distractions. Then Gianpiero Lambiase - Max's long-time race engineer and the only person he's ever trusted behind a headset - goes on paternity leave. Red Bull scrambles. Their solution? Poach Sasha Langley from Mercedes. Once groomed to be Bono's successor, Sasha is brilliant, calculating, and cold as carbon fiber. She's also the last person Max wants in his garage. He makes that clear. But Formula 1 doesn't care about feelings. Just results. And Sasha? She delivers. Thrown together under the blistering lights of the paddock, they clash - publicly, professionally, intimately. But hate has always been a close cousin of something far more dangerous. In a world where fractions define legacies and trust is earned in milliseconds, what begins as a war of wills may just become the one thing neither of them planned for: Something real.

"Max Verstappen is your cousin? Why didn't you tell me that before?" The brunette shrugged casually. "I didn't think it was relevant." "He tried to kill me! Obviously I would have liked to know I was making love to his cousin!" ___________________________________________ In 2019 Model and Singer Valencia Verstappen is one of the most recognisable faces in the world.

Oscar and Ivy, inseparable since they where 8, but what if they are more than just friends?

Two people raised by legacy and pressure, mistaking each other for the enemy, until they realize they're the only ones who truly understand it. The Ferrari name was never just a surname. It was an inheritance, a responsibility, and at times, a burden to Isabella. Max had been raised by pressure, shaped by a father who believed greatness required fear.
