She's the voice of the internet. He's the driver she called overrated.

Rhea Hart built her brand on sharp analysis, zero-filter commentary, and a podcast that's become the unofficial pulse of F1 fan culture. She's not afraid to call out bad strategy, weak overtakes-or Lando Norris, the golden boy of McLaren, who she once described as "all potential, no pressure."

She didn't expect him to listen.
She definitely didn't expect him to care.

But when a viral post-race moment launches her into the paddock spotlight, Lando fires back with charm, wit, and a maddening habit of proving her wrong-on track and off. What begins as internet-fueled banter spirals into late-night DMs, stolen glances, and the kind of chemistry you can't manufacture for social media.

Now Rhea's stuck between her rising profile and the one person who makes her question everything she thought she knew about the sport.
And Lando? He's got a season to win, a reputation to maintain, and one hell of a weakness for the girl who's been narrating his highlight reels all year.

Enemies to almost-friends to something else entirely-this isn't just a love story.
It's a high-speed collision course between pride, passion, and the power of being truly seen.

Lando Norris is an ambitious young driver in the high-speed world of Formula One, fueled by his dreams of championship glory. But as he speeds towards the pinnacle of his career, he finds himself entangled in a complicated and much complex emotional race involving Kaia Astor-Ferrari, one of his closests friend and a formidable force in the paddock. Known for being the youngest owner in F1 history at the legendary Scuderia Ferrari. Kaia is not only an exceptional team owner, she is a practicing lawyer-but, she is also the ex-girlfriend of Lando's bestfriend, Carlos Sainz Jr., who has recently found himself a new lover yet remains close friends with Kaia. Even though Carlos has moved on to someone new, he and Kaia continue to share a bond that complicates Lando's feelings. He knew that Kaia's heart hasn't completely healed from their almost three-year relationship, and it hurts her everytime she's reminded of the past. Lando respects Carlos' new relationship, but he can't help feeling jealous each time he sees Kaia and Carlos interact. Carlos has been Lando's closest confidant for years and he had never thought of Kaia as anything more than a close friend. However, as the time passed, Lando started to notice everything about her-her beauty, her wit, her intelligence, and how she made him feel. Despite these feelings, Lando still hesitated, knowing that Kaia and Carlos had a deep history and a strong connection. He fears that revealing what he truly feels could jeopardize not only his friendship with Kaia but also the relationship he built with Carlos. "Make You Mine" is a gripping story of love, desperation, and the mind-bugging speeds at which life moves. It delves into the complexities of relationships, and the power of unresolved feelings, and the courage it takes to embrace change. In a world where every second counts, Lando must find a way to cross the finish line to love, or risk letting the opportunity slip away forever.

When she lands a coveted internship at a prestigious ballet school in Paris, she sees it as the opportunity of a lifetime to hone her craft and make her mark on the international stage. But life in the City of Lights isn't just about pirouettes and pliés - there, she meets Charles Leclerc, the charismatic Formula 1 driver whose fast-paced world couldn't be more different from hers. At first, their connection is purely friendly, as they bond over their shared dedication to their crafts. But as their friendship deepens, sparks fly, and what starts as a camaraderie between two driven individuals quickly turns into an undeniable romance. Their love blossoms amidst the glimmering chandeliers of the ballet school and the roaring engines of F1 races, but the demands of their careers push them to their limits, turning lovers into rivals. With Sophia's ballet career escalating and Charles' F1 season in full swing, their relationship begins to unravel under the weight of jealousy, insecurities, and miscommunication. Their passion for each other is matched only by their need to succeed, and they find themselves on a destructive path - until they are forced to confront their true feelings. Through heartbreak and rivalry, they must navigate their way back to each other, realizing that love, like ballet and racing, requires balance, patience, and trust. Pas de Deux, Pit Crew is a passionate tale of two souls from different worlds - one seeking perfection on the stage, the other on the track - learning that sometimes the most beautiful dances are the ones that happen when you least expect them.
