Summary
At nineteen, Oscar Piastri finds himself always waiting, for a chance, for a seat, for someone to see him. Two years in formula one's reserve shadow has left him questioning if he belongs at all. Every smile feels forced, every test session a reminder that he's replaceable.
Then he meets Lando Norris. McLaren's four time World Driver's Champion, brilliant, reckless and nine years older. Lando's used to winning. Used to being the one people chase. But when he mistakes Oscar for a fan during a paddock signing, something about the quiet resignation in Oscar's eyes lodges under his skin and refuses to leave.

Summary
"If it makes you feel any better," Oscar startled at his mother's voice, "I've never heard of anyone seriously carrying a grudge over a soulmate bruise."
"I know..." He hesitated, staring at the floor, "It's not that, not really."
"Feeling guilty then?" She guessed.
He let out the breath he'd been holding and met her eyes in the mirror. She was leaning against the door frame, arms crossed, a rather fond grin on her face.
"I don't want to hurt them. But I don't want to stop racing either."
She nodded in understanding, "And you can't do both."
