They're both used to pressure, just usually the kind that comes with an engine. But between media appearances, private jokes, and the occasional almost-too-convincing moment, the lines start to blur. And suddenly, what started as a carefully constructed lie doesn't feel so fake anymore.

He goes there with a hoodie and a backpack, he's probably on his way home or something! Could you imagine? Spiderman could actually live in the flats opposite us!" Lando exclaimed, turning his head to the window and he could slightly see the same building. The world now becoming suffocated by the increasing darkness, the sunset long gone. Oscar pinches the bridge of his nose, "I think you're reading into this way too much, mate."

Charles Leclerc and Max Verstappen. What lay between them wasn't hatred; it was a consuming obsession, far more dangerous than love. Two rivals who knew the rhythm of each other's breath by heart. But when a crash shattered not only Charles' body but his soul, everyone thought the legend was over. But Max Verstappen was not the kind of man to let his favorite obsession fade away. This is not a story of pity. This is the story of a rival who drags the broken man from the wreckage, forcing him back to his feet-not to destroy him, but because he cannot exist without him. No mercy. No apologies. Only asphalt, blood, and a devotion that bleeds into love.
