Evelyn Horner knows two things better than most: engineering... and how to survive in a world that was never built for her. As the daughter of Red Bull Racing's team principal, she's grown up in the high-pressure world of Formula 1, always watching from the sidelines - until now.
Dragged to the Dutch Grand Prix, Evelyn's world is flipped upside down when she walks in on a volatile confrontation between Max Verstappen and his father, Jos. Her decision to speak up - to defend someone she barely knows - sparks a chain reaction that shifts the balance of everything in the paddock.
Whispers follow her. Walls go up. Tensions rise.
Now, Evelyn is caught in a storm of ego, legacy, and power - a storm where loyalty is tested, silence is dangerous, and every move is being watched.
And the deeper she goes, the more she realizes:
- This isn't just about racing.
- It's not just about fathers and sons.
- And it's definitely not just about her.
With her name on the line and the pressure mounting, Evelyn must decide who she can trust... and whether standing her ground is worth risking everything.
