Clara was a young autistic woman with level 1 support needs. Intelligent and sensitive, she had always been fascinated by patterns, intricate details, and the precision of numbers. As a child, she would spend hours watching car races with her father, mesmerized by the roar of the engines, the perfect synchronicity of pit stops, and, above all, the sense of control that drivers seemed to have over the chaos of speed.
Over time, she grew up and, despite the social challenges she faced, found a safe space in her passion for motorsport. Clara had a sharp eye for race data, able to identify patterns that even the most experienced engineers overlooked. Her talent eventually caught the attention of a team that invited her to work behind the scenes as a performance analyst.
It was in this environment that Clara met Lucas, one of the most promising drivers in Formula 1. Charismatic and outgoing, Lucas was different from many around him-he was genuinely interested in people and their stories. From their very first encounter, he noticed something special about Clara. She spoke little, yet conveyed an intensity and an uncommon knowledge of every technical aspect of racing.
