Eleanor, a rising talent at F1TV, has spent the past 4 years building her credibility as a smart, intellectual, and witty journalist and content creator. In a male-dominated environment, she is eager to prove herself to her peers and audience, which is also why she is ecstatic to be offered the opportunity to cover behind-the-scenes content for a new F1TV campaign. With close, regular access to all drivers, Eleanor sees this as her chance to break new ground. 

Max Verstappen, who is notoriously known for being dismissive of media and all to eager to avoid fluff pieces, proves a challenge from the beginning. He's polite, but distant and clearly uninterested. And yet, Eleanor's insight, wit, and refusal to tiptoe around him begins to crack his armor. 

What starts as a professional clash slowly turns into curiosity and something far more complicated.

Sierra is one of the brightest new talents in Formula 2 - and the only woman on the grid. She's fast, fiercely competitive, and dangerously close to cracking under pressure. Between the media circus, online hate, rivalry and the burden of proving she belongs, Sierra's fight isn't just for podiums - it's for her future in motorsport. 𝘈𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘸𝘢𝘴𝘯'𝘵 𝘮𝘺 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨. 𝘏𝘪𝘴 𝘢𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘨𝘩? Max Verstappen isn't known for getting involved in anyone else's business. But after one late-night scroll through Sierra's social media, something shifts. She reminds him of the fire he races with - and the loneliness that can come with it. "𝘠𝘰𝘶'𝘳𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘳𝘦𝘪𝘨𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘭𝘥 𝘤𝘩𝘢𝘮𝘱𝘪𝘰𝘯, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘰𝘯𝘭𝘺 𝘸𝘦𝘢𝘬𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘴 𝘪𝘴... 𝘢 𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘵𝘵𝘺 𝘨𝘪𝘳𝘭? 𝘎𝘦𝘵 𝘢 𝘨𝘳𝘪𝘱, 𝘔𝘢𝘹."
