Engines scream, lights go out, and twenty hearts chase glory.

Devilish-Charlos (Carlos Sainz x Charles Leclerc) by csfiftyfive

There are two religions in italy. There's the catholic church and there's ferrari. In ferrari, there are two teammates who have nothing in common. Il predestinato "the chosen one" Il diavolo rosso "the red devil" But it wasn't always like this. Can the 'angel' and the 'devil' of formula one fight against all shades of red? rivalry, blood and madness, till they reach the shade of love? Tropes: Rivals To Lovers Forced Proximity Friends To Lovers Warning: Mature Content 18+ #2 in rivalstolovers

Design His Wings [Max Verstappen] by p1astri33

He races for Red Bull. She designs his wings. Falling for each other? That wasn't on the grid. She's the aerodynamicist every team wants. He's the driver no one can catch. What starts as flirty banter in the garage turns into late nights, stolen glances, and a tension that no diffuser can fix. Love doesn't follow regulations. And neither does Max Verstappen. Quick author note; Heyy, so first time writing a fic, no idea what I'm doing. But I promise it gets better in the later chaps. First few are definitely a bit boring cus it all slowly builds up. This is slow-burn with fluff, and no smut.

One of a kind - Lando Norris by f1stories_lando

"Sometimes, love isn't enough" In a world where love traingles, toxic relationships and drama can't seem to leave her alone. Warning: some chapters will contain mature content. This story finished on the 27th of september, 2023. It is still undergoing heavy editing, but the storyline will stay the same. I am just correcting grammer mistakes and adding more details. I don't own the real life characters, but I do own the fictional characters and the storyline.

Checkered Hearts-Lestappen by Felixxsbrowniesss

The past few years with Ferrari had been relentless for Charles Leclerc, and the new season promised no relief. Every podium, every headline, every lap pressed down on him, leaving exhaustion and isolation in their wake. Even amidst the chaos of the track, the pressure followed him into the quiet of his hotel room, where the fight to keep control felt endless, and no one truly saw... Max, his longtime rival, notices things no one else does. And despite themselves, the tension between them begins to shift. Between crashes, podiums, and endless competition, a fragile connection forms-one that challenges everything Charles thought he knew about rivalry, loyalty... and love.

Burnout / Max Verstappen by pucksandpower

At the start of the 2026 Formula 1 season, reigning World Champion Max Verstappen has one goal: domination. With Red Bull gunning for perfection and legacy cementation on the line, there's no room for distractions. Then Gianpiero Lambiase - Max's long-time race engineer and the only person he's ever trusted behind a headset - goes on paternity leave. Red Bull scrambles. Their solution? Poach Sasha Langley from Mercedes. Once groomed to be Bono's successor, Sasha is brilliant, calculating, and cold as carbon fiber. She's also the last person Max wants in his garage. He makes that clear. But Formula 1 doesn't care about feelings. Just results. And Sasha? She delivers. Thrown together under the blistering lights of the paddock, they clash - publicly, professionally, intimately. But hate has always been a close cousin of something far more dangerous. In a world where fractions define legacies and trust is earned in milliseconds, what begins as a war of wills may just become the one thing neither of them planned for: Something real.

Cloud 9 | Lando Norris by ClaireMreunt

"I don't remember anything, and neither do you." he says. "Yeah, no, not at all. I don't remember anything." I say with a smirk on my face. "This is just our little secret." "I hate you." "Sure you do." ________________________________ "We'll see if you can keep your eyes off me, or if that will simply be the downfall of Lando Norris' winning streak." My eyes are on the tempting brown one mere inches away from mine. "You are my downfall. And I don't think I want to do anything about it." ********* (Story description in the first chapter, aka "Introduction") Lysm, Claire♡

Slipping Down || Charles Leclerc by VChristinaR

Slipping down a dark path can be pretty self-destructive. Especially when you can't come out. "I need you, Charles... I need you now". ---- Disclaimer/trigger warning: This story is not for underage readers.

F1 Heiress by J4Kaiser

Born in a palace. Raised by a Queen. Driven by fire. When a young woman is born under extraordinary circumstances inside Buckingham Palace, her life becomes anything but ordinary. Adopted by Queen Elizabeth II after a tragedy no one could have predicted, she grows up between royal halls and red carpets-yet never quite belongs. But while the world watches her grace royal balconies and banquets, she dreams of something else entirely: speed, engines, racing lines-and a name on the podium. From secret karting lessons with Prince Philip to rising through the fiercely competitive world of motorsport, she defies tradition and expectation at every turn. And when she finally breaks into Formula 1, she carries not just the weight of a helmet-but of a crown she was never meant to wear. Will the world accept a Windsor on the track? Will she prove that being born outside the bloodline doesn't mean she was born to be less? 👑 A story of legacy, ambition, loss, love-and a girl who dares to rewrite what it means to be royal. ⸻ Charles Leclerc Ff _____ ⚠️ Fiction Disclaimer This is a work of pure fiction. All characters, events, and interpretations involving the Royal Family or real-life public figures are entirely imagined. This story is written with deep respect and admiration but is in no way intended to reflect reality.
