"You hate me, don't you?" "No. I wish I did." When rookie Oscar Piastri joins McLaren, Lando Norris doesn't think much of him: quiet, polite, unthreatening. Until the first test. Until Oscar's lap times start haunting him more than the thought of losing ever did. Rivalry turns personal, and attraction feels a lot like obsession. In the season that could make or break them, Lando learns that the real danger isn't on the track. It's the rookie sharing his garage. ✦ . 　⁺ 　 . ✦ . 　⁺ 　 . ✦ . 　⁺ 　 . ✦ . 　⁺ 　 . ✦ angst; enemies to lovers;

"You wanna try?" Said the curly-haired boy with a helmet in one hand and Oscar's fate in the other. They were supposed to make it to F1 together. And technically? They did. But now Lando can't stand to look at him. And Oscar? He's still trying to fix something he never meant to break.

Despite their different worlds, a chance encounter sparks an unlikely friendship between the two. But as their bond deepens, Oscar faces a dilemma: he's falling for Lando, but there's one problem-Lando has to be straight, right? Torn between the fear of ruining their friendship and the hope that his feelings might be returned, Oscar is forced to navigate the complexities of love, identity, and the challenges of living in the public eye. When a drunken kiss at a party changes everything, Oscar's world is turned upside down. As he grapples with his emotions and the weight of their secret, Oscar must decide whether to take a leap of faith or risk losing the person he cares about most. In a journey of self-discovery, love, and courage, Oscar and Lando learn that the heart wants what it wants-even if it defies all expectations.

Stunned by Oscar's unexpected innocence, Lando finds himself inexplicably drawn into his orbit. What starts as curiosity quickly turns into an obsession, with Lando finding every possible excuse to be by Oscar's side in the debrief rooms, the private jets, and the quiet corners of the paddock. As Lando pushes through the layers of Oscar's isolation, he realizes that melting the ice of a virgin heart is far more dangerous than any 300km/h corner
