As the 5-time World Driver's Champion heads into his last season in Formula 1, the stakes are higher than ever. With rivals old and new closing in, and the weight of his legacy on his shoulders, Masachika is determined to end his career on his own terms.

In this gripping finale, Masachika battles not just on the track but within himself, facing the intense pressure of his final season, the uncertainty of what comes next, and the toll the sport has taken on his body and soul. Surrounded by a world that reveres him yet demands even more, he races for one final triumph that could solidify his place as one of the legends of F1.

But the road to glory is never easy. With fierce competition from up-and-coming talents, the shadow of his own doubts, and the looming prospect of retirement, Masachika's journey is filled with emotional and physical challenges. As the season progresses, he's forced to reckon with the choices he's made, the relationships he's built, and the legacy he'll leave behind.

In Beyond the Apex, Masachika Kuze's story reaches its epic conclusion, where racing isn't just about winning-it's about redemption, sacrifice, and the pursuit of something greater than the finish line. Will he secure one last title, or will his journey through the apex be his final lap?(CC) Attribution-NoDerivs

Life Afterlife: The Sequel by sallyhopewrites

"Death is death and there's not much we can do about it. But what comes after is in our hands." The sequel to In Another Life by LittleLuxray that nobody asked for-but which I simply had to write for myself. ~ In Cloud Atlas, Robert Frobisher writes in a letter to Sixsmith that "a half-finished book is, after all, a half-finished love affair." This story is my attempt to finish what was written by a different author five years ago. Bokuto is my favourite character in Haikyuu; Akaashi is his favourite person. Reading In Another Life a week ago, I felt empty. After rewatching Cloud Atlas I realised why that was. The story needs to end. And death is not an end, but a door. There are too many stories about the ones who leave. This is for the ones left behind, the ones who stay. For Akaashi.

Hitting The Apex by xoesez

Full Throttle Series #1: Hitting The Apex In Formula One, everything runs on precision-until emotion cuts through the noise. Veronica Kim, the sharp-tongued Korean-American founder of Vitoska Tech, built her name in a man's world by being smarter, faster, and utterly untouchable. Supplying the grid's most powerful machines has made her a legend off the track, and a threat to anyone who underestimates her. Then there's William Jacques, Scuderia Falconi's fearless yet volatile driver. Ruthless in the cockpit and rebellious everywhere else, William races with the kind of hunger that makes headlines-and enemies.
