"Slow down, darling. Keep it lowkey, else you might end up all crashed up against a wall... again." Ava Yoon, an aspiring formula driver, has just signed a contract with Red Bull Racing, making this her debut in F1. Under such a well-known team, while also being the daughter of a three times world champion, the pressure to live up to everyone's expectations is sure to be a lot. This doesn't stop AY6 from delivering an outstanding performance at the opening Grand Prix of the season. However, what's certain to put great pressure on the twenty-year-old is the presence of Ethan Lee, her lifelong nemesis. For the entirety of her career, Ava has been living in Ethan's shadow, him always being a step ahead. It's a mutual loathing that both drivers don't bother with ending, instead focusing on beating each other and following the cycle they're so used to. Things are to change when a series of unexpected events leads the two of them down the same path. Will they be able to look past the unfounded hatred and face the situations together? Or will their stubbornness - that both drivers seem to be sharing a great amount - get in their way?
