Racing 101

They called him Moscow's Fury for a reason.
Lev Volkov drives on instinct, on fire, on the razor's edge of control. But after a year of breathtaking wins and spectacular crashes, Formula 1's doors remain closed. The whispers are clear: he's a missile without a guidance system.
Now, in the scorching heat of Bahrain, a new ghost haunts him. Cole Halvorsen-the sport's rising "Iceman." A prodigy who drives with a surgeon's calm and a supercomputer's logic. He is everything Lev is not, and the paddock is already crowning him the future.
Their first meeting isn't on the track. It's in a shadowed corner of the paddock, where Lev's defiant smoke meets Cole's analytical gaze. A challenge is thrown down. A handshake is offered. And in that moment, Lev realizes the fight isn't just about speed.
It's a war of philosophies. Raw passion versus calculated precision. The past versus the future.
To win, Lev must either break the Iceman... or learn from him.

Disclamer:
This work of fiction is highly inspired by the dynamic, setting, and spirit of Heated Rivalry by Rachel Reid and its television adaptation by Jacob Tierney.

While we aim for authenticity in portraying the atmosphere of the racing world at the time (from 2006 to nowadays), this is a work of imagination. Any resemblance to real-life Formula 1 events, teams, or individuals-past or present-is entirely coincidental. Except for the teams' names, all characters, events, and specific racing incidents depicted herein are fictional.

Thank you for reading, and we hope you enjoy the ride.
