Set in the 2024 Season

New chapter on Mondays



A fake relationship. A ruined name. A season that changes everything.

Camila Santos was born to win arguments, not Fashion Week. But she walked away from her family's elite New York law empire and built her own: SANTOS, the label every celebrity needs on the red carpet. Until one accusation-plagiarism, betrayal, scandal-threatens to destroy everything she built.

Pierre Gasly was trained to drive, not behave.
A brawl in Milan and a video that breaks the internet leaves Alpine on damage control. Sponsors want him gone. The paddock sees a liability. The only thing worse than the truth? The rumors.

One PR solution, two stubborn reputations, and a contract signed in anger.

Now they're moving into a penthouse in Milan.

Cameras watch their every move.
The world believes they're in love.

But under the surface?
He's temperamental. She's too guarded.

And what started as fake is starting to feel a little too real.All Rights Reserved

Horizon| L.N.4 by MeganLucca

Grief doesn't always come with funerals. Sometimes, it comes quietly-through the slammed door of an apartment you swore you'd never return to. Through the bruises that finally faded but left something heavier behind. Beatrice Piastri knew this kind of grief. The quiet kind. The kind you carry in your chest long after the world thinks you're fine. Leaving him hadn't been the hardest part. Surviving him had. Now, months later, she was back in the paddock-Oscar's little sister with a name of her own, finally trying to breathe again. She'd built a wall of armor out of silence and sharp smiles, convinced she didn't need anyone else. Until him. Lando Norris wasn't supposed to notice her. Not really. Not in the way he did. He had his own weight to carry: the pressure of a world watching, a team that expected wins, and a legacy he was still trying to build before the world decided he'd missed his chance. The fun, smiling front man of McLaren-charming, chaotic, untouchable-was just a shell on most days. Behind the jokes was a mind overclocked with pressure, self-doubt, and the unbearable demand to always be more. They weren't looking for each other. They weren't ready for each other. But broken things sometimes recognize each other in the dark. And when they do- They don't always fix each other. But sometimes, they make surviving feel a little less lonely. --- Based on te 2024 season, all referencese to people are purely casual.

|Crash Into Me| LN¹ by love_series_

✨ She's a popstar with grease-stained roots. He's an F1 heartbreaker with no idea what's about to hit him. ✨ Alexia Valeria Vega-aka Lexi V-isn't expecting much when she lands in Italy for the Monza Grand Prix. She's just there to surprise her childhood best friend, Oscar Piastri, who scored her VIP passes. That's it. No spotlight. No drama. She's brought along her best friend Gia and her boyfriend, Matteo Cruz-a flashy tech CEO and die-hard McLaren fan. But while Matteo loves fast cars, he doesn't love Lexi's rising fame. He smiles for cameras but flinches when the spotlight lingers too long on her. And lately? It's not going anywhere. Because Lexi isn't just another popstar. She's a first-gen Mexican-American artist, blending English and Spanish into genre-breaking hits. But long before the tours and red carpets, she was helping in her uncle's garage, learning engines like lyrics. F1? It's not just cool-it's in her bones. Then she meets Lando Norris. In the McLaren suite, he doesn't recognize her. Not as the global icon everyone else sees. Just a girl talking engines with stars in her eyes. And Lexi? She likes it that way. Weeks later, Lexi invites Oscar to her show in Monaco-and tells him to bring friends. He brings also Lando. And this time, Lando really sees her. He's known for being charming and untouchable. She's known for being playful and fearless. But something about this feels different. Slower. Realer. He doesn't just like her laugh-he likes the way she sees past the fame. And for once, Lexi's not pretending. Because love at 300 km/h doesn't come with warning signs. 🏁💿💔

Four years later || CL16 by heyangel_164

Four years ago, Kalani Fiore shared one night with Charles Leclerc - and walked away with a secret. Now, she runs a thriving restaurant in London and keeps her life and son far from the chaos of Formula 1. But fate has other ideas. When she's spotted in the paddock, the cameras capture stolen glances, quiet exchanges, and an undeniable spark neither of them can hide. To the world, she's the mysterious woman stealing the Ferrari star's focus. To Charles, she's the one person he can't stop looking for - even in a room full of people. But if he wants to be part of Noah's life, he'll have to prove he can stay, no matter how messy the headlines get. With a championship on the line and the media spinning every move, Charles and Kalani are caught in a slow, dangerous pull toward each other. In the end, the real question isn't whether the world will find out... It's whether they can keep denying what's always been there. *HIGHEST RANKING* NO1 #LECLERC NO1 #STRANGERSTOLOVERS NO1 #GASLY NO1 #PIERREGASLY

Fools 𐓏 Pierre Gasly by InesFerraz1

Pierre Gasly is fond of the life he has been living. Why wouldn't he be? He has it all: fame, money, body, career, and women. But being a womanizer turns out to be too damaging for his image when someone decides to spread some very intriguing rumors about the Formula 1 driver. A change to a new team combined with a teammate who has a bad history and we have the recipe for disaster. And that's when she comes into action. Astrid Leclerc. Does her last name sound familiar? It should. She is Charles Leclerc's little sister, the only girl with three brothers. She is not fond of her brother's best friend, but she likes annoying Charles and Pierre. If she could do both, she would. And Pierre offers her just that. She would help him, and he would help her. Two people who don't like each other agree to fake date each other, but how fake will it be with time?

Slowburn + Enemies to lovers tropes

THE RESERVE || OP81 by Laura8321

The paddock was a battlefield long before the lights ever went out. For Oscar Piastri, McLaren's rising star, it meant constant pressure, silence in the chaos, and learning how to carry the weight of expectation without breaking. For Maëlle Giroud, Alpine's reserve driver, it meant waiting in the shadows - her career balanced on opportunities that might never come, her future determined by politics as much as talent. When their paths crossed, it wasn't supposed to matter. He had left Alpine behind. She was still tied to them, loyal to a team that considered Oscar a traitor. But glances linger. Conversations stretch longer than they should. And soon, loyalty, ambition, and love will clash in a storm neither of them saw coming. In Formula 1, every choice has consequences. And for Oscar and Maëlle, the biggest gamble won't be on track.
