𝐖𝐀𝐑𝐍𝐈𝐍𝐆: 𝟏𝟖 + [𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐭 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐭] ━━━ ❝ 𝐈𝐟 𝐈'𝐦 𝐠𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨 𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐤 𝐢𝐭 𝐚𝐥𝐥, 𝐢𝐭 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐛𝐞 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐥𝐞𝐬 𝐋𝐞𝐜𝐥𝐞𝐫𝐜. ❞ Max and Charles were just supposed to be rivals. But one reckless, drunk night at the Monaco GP after party changed everything. Their messy encounter in a bathroom stall was supposed to be a mistake-something they could both forget and move past. Max insisted it meant nothing, and Charles knew he had to move on. But how do you forget something that felt so right? Falling for the competition is risky, but breaking all the rules has never felt so good.

McLaren's Australian driver, 𝐎𝐒𝐂𝐀𝐑 𝐏𝐈𝐀𝐒𝐓𝐑𝐈, is struggling with the fact that he is a number 2 driver, and when Christian Horner takes advantage of Oscar's anger, he manipulates him into driving for Redbull where Max Verstappen is presumably retiring. He never tells his teammate and best friend that he's leaving, and when Lando finds out, the cracks in their relationship begin to form. And 𝐋𝐀𝐍𝐃𝐎 𝐍𝐎𝐑𝐑𝐈𝐒, McLaren's golden boy, is struggling even more. He thinks that pushing his emotions down will work out in the end; he's been doing it since he was ten, so why wouldn't it work now? What happens now is that he breaks down in panic in his driver's room while Oscar tries to help him. He only realizes he can't go on like that when he's stuck in a burning car, not wanting to get out, and realizes he needs to do something about his feelings, not just bottle them up as he has been for the past year. In 𝐀𝐋𝐋 𝐖𝐄 𝐖𝐄𝐑𝐄, Lando and Oscar find a rivalry that's tied to Lando's mental health problems and Oscar's manipulation by Christian Horner, and how much they're in love with each other and don't even know it. As the season goes on and on, they drift farther and farther apart from friends, and closer and closer to what some would call enemies, through knowing each other so well that they know how to make it hurt.

When Lando meets Oscar for the first time, he thinks he dislikes Oscar, the rookie bringing back memories from Lando's past, which he had vowed to never think about again. Being near him is hard, and he has trouble hiding his dislike. When the fans and the media notice, McLaren is quick to step in, making both driver's sign a contract to be in a fake relationship for the reminder of the season. As Lando struggles with his past, Oscar is always by his side and despite the Australian causing him to confront his past, he can't help but realize that the hate he believed to feel when he first met Oscar, wasn't hate after all. It was the complete opposite and Lando has to learn to feel again, when the last time he allowed someone into his heart, he was hurt badly. ----- TW: mentions of physical abuse, mentions of sexual assault, panic attacks, mentions of psychological abuse
