Summary
Once Charles Leclerc had hoped to be the new hope for Ferrari, to chase a championship in red. But after presenting as an omega those dreams were over, he's spent the last few years trying not to think about Formula One until an unusual offer from an old rival appears. Two time world champion Max Verstappen needs an omega to soften his PR image and he or at least his team want Charles to be that omega.

Summary
Charles opens the door in his work out shorts and giant hoodie, half of his hair smooshed to the side of his head while the other sticks straight up. He's frantically trying to smooth it with one hand as he swings the door wide with the other, but gets distracted by Max standing there, red-cheeked and trying to pretend he isn’t panting.
The cloud of rainpancakesearthsyrup floods into his apartment, making Charles blink dazedly. It’s so fucking good. He can’t help but gasp a bit, surprised.
Max takes a final deep, almost heaving breath and shoots his arm out straight in front of him, a dark blue hoodie clenched in his fist. “Here.”
Charles doesn’t reach for it. He eyes Max, the sheen of sweat along his hairline, the fit of his relatively but not egregiously skinny jeans.
“Did you—did you run here?”
Max grimaces a little, then shrugs. “Brought this for you.”
*
Charles has spent the last 28 years highly sensitive to smell, usually to the detriment of his own well-being. So what if Max’s presence—and scent—have always helped with that?
So what if this is the year Max finally notices?

Summary
“Carlos! Last race ticked off the list, you’re done! How does it feel?” the interviewer asks.
Carlos takes a deep breath and nods. “Good. About time. I’m looking forward to retiring, actually.”
“How do you imagine retirement will feel?”
“Like a very long winter break that I will spend with my family, with my girlfriend, and all the things I didn’t have time for in the past years.”or: Lando fell first, but Carlos fell harder.

Summary
“It’s probably not the best idea for us to do this,” Oscar says, looking away. “We’re living together, and the contract—”
“Fuck the contract,” Lando interrupts, exasperated. “We can add a clause to it or something, I dunno. It can be like those stupid rom-coms where they agree not to fall in love with each other.”
Or: Oscar Piastri is a lonely, closeted F1 driver who's one mistaken hook-up away from certain ruin. Lando is a down-on-his-luck photographer who's three days away from eviction. When Lando tries to mug Oscar in a desperate attempt to keep his housing, Oscar proposes a mutually beneficial arrangement: Lando lives with Oscar as his companion for one year. After that, they're free to go their separate ways. A rock-solid NDA and no hard feelings. What could go wrong?
