Summary
George Russell is falling apart in silence while Mercedes quietly builds its future without him.
When pressure, replacement rumours, and isolation finally push him past the edge, he disappears from the paddock in a way nobody expects.
What no one knows is that George isn’t the only version of himself in the world.
And the one who answers the silence that night might not be there to save him... but to take his place.

Summary
In a world blossoming with different soulmate connections, Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri are born into a world of black and white. They’ll only be able to see in color once they meet their soulmate, and fall in love with them.
They’re both excited to meet their soulmate someday, but think that their own connections are, overall, fairly unremarkable.
Then on Lando’s eleventh birthday, a soulmark forms, locking into place. Oscar’s own forms a year later.
Connections are commonplace, normal, everyday. But nobody’s ever had, or ever heard, of someone having more than one.

Summary
After a heated clash in Zandvoort, Max Verstappen's on-track threat becomes reality when both McLaren drivers are found injured overnight. Max wakes up with bloody knuckles and gaps in his memory. With the FIA investigating and the paddock in chaos, George Russell faces an impossible choice: stand by his principles and defend the man he can't stand, or let Max face the consequences alone.
As the investigation unfolds and the media circus intensifies, two enemies find themselves forced together by circumstance and conscience. But in a world where every word is scrutinized and every gesture analyzed, can they navigate the space between hatred and something far more dangerous?
*A slow-burn enemies to lovers set against the high-stakes world of Formula 1, where justice, desire, and self-preservation collide.*

Summary
Lando attaches the blushy, pouty photo and sends it, then locks his phone and drops it onto the carpet beside him, staring up at the ceiling.
There’s a pause, stretching suspiciously long.
A faint click echoes through the call. Mute. Then unmute again.
“Sorry,” OP says when he comes back, his voice rougher now. “Thought someone was at the door.”
Or: Lando loses an F1 championship and signs up for a charity Minecraft speedrunning tournament to cope with his existential crisis. Turns out his coach, faceless speedrunning champion OP81, might be a bit of a fanboy.

Summary
the fic where Lando Norris + Oscar Piastri's bro day out prior to the 2025 F1 Season sparks up a funky dating rumour. But the McLaren PR team uses this to their advantage to accelerate both boys' careers.
[2025 F1 season realistic—irl interviews/content entwined within the storyline]
—
“We have a new PR strategy for this year to aid with keeping you both in the headlines for longer,” Louise, the CMO, continues. “We want to lean into the wave you’ve both created already."
"We want you to both be in a PR relationship," Zak finalises.
Lando immediately spills a quarter of the water carafe onto Oscar’s lap out of pure shock. Lando gasps out a few squeaky sorry's while Oscar stands up in a fright.
“You mean with… models, or s-something?” Oscar stutters out, looking down to his pants which absolutely looks like he’s just pissed himself.
“No, that’d be a very easy strategy. We’ve used that one for years,” Louise laughs. Neither of the drivers are laughing with her. "You two, together."

Summary
Lando Norris touches something he is explicitly told not to touch at a Bern sustainability expo resulting in two George Russells and two Max Verstappens. Two too many of each, depending on who you ask.
Clone Max wants to know how you're really doing. Clone George wants to know if anything is flammable. Real George wants order and for everyone to stop looking at him like he has the answers. Real Max wants his clone to stop hugging people and, more urgently, to stop being effective at it. Toto Wolff wants to sign both clones and also return them for a refund. Simultaneously. Christian Horner has started the merch line. Kimi Antonelli has four dads now and is thriving. Fernando Alonso has found his soulmate. Charles Leclerc has been reborn. Twice. Before lunch. Oscar Piastri is observing. Oscar Piastri is always observing.
Somewhere in all this, Real George and Real Max are forced to coordinate, cooperate, and spend an inadvisable amount of time in each other's company.
It goes about as well as you'd expect. Considerably better than either of them planned.

Summary
All things considered, Oscar would say that he was doing pretty well. Not in the race, obviously—that had been fairly shit—but in terms of damage control. He and Lewis had resolved their whole situation peacefully. In his post-race interview, he had remained calm and given the usual neutral answers of "it is what it is" and "we're always pushing to do better." Team debrief had been weird. A lot of shit had happened during the race, and when Oscar was in the middle of so much of it, it was bound to be a little difficult. But it was fine, really.
That was why hours after the race, finishing picking up his drivers room and getting ready to go back to the hotel, he was decidedly not thinking about it. Nope. Not at all.
or; it started in monza, when oscar needed a hug and got one. 9 race weekends total, landoscar-figuring-out-their-shit style.

Summary
“I thought…” George says and then stops. Is it weird to tell someone you thought they were dead? Probably. Alex Albon feels like far too much of an impossibility to be real. “I didn’t know where you went. You never called me back.”
And then suddenly he’s that little kid, sitting on Alex’s doorstep in the pouring rain, wondering what he’d done wrong, how badly he’d messed up as a friend that Alex would leave and not even think to tell him.
Fourteen years after Alex Albon had left him and racing without a word, George finds him at an art gallery.

Max chuckles, “Hey, we might even have the numbers for a Halloween feature race.”
Kimi perks up, “Really?”
Seeing the bright excitement in Kimi’s eyes for the first time since he ended up in that hospital bed, the cogs in Charles' head start turning.
“Calm down, mate. Not this year, we don't have enough time.”
The smile falls from Kimi’s face.
Charles is already messaging Fred.
The Halloween special of my supernatural-verse :D!
If more than 5 supernatural drivers and their teams agree to it, a special feature race will be held on Halloween in which the drivers don’t have to take their FIA mandated suppressants, showcasing the true strength of their species.

“If you were stuck in a timeloop, and you knew you had to stop something from happening, what would you do?”
“What 10-questions-to-ask-your-teammate-to-get-to-know-them site did you get that one from?” Lewis laughs, as he moves to pull the balaclava over his head. They have 5 minutes until they have to be ready in the car and admittedly, this moment might not be the best time to ask this kind of question.
“No, I mean it,” Charles insists, lifting his helmet from the stand, but holding it awkwardly in his hands, maintaining eye contact. “If you were stuck, what would you do?”
Lewis places his hand on his shoulder lightly, squeezing once. “We can talk about this after the race, yes?”
There won’t be an after the race, Charles thinks bitterly, but he nods his head anyway. “Yeah,” he agrees, “after the race, sure.”

“Oh,” Max mumbles. Her blue eyes squint, then grow wide, and unfocused, as if she had a sudden realization. “Oh. No!”
“No?”
“I’m not a fan, Charles.”
“Then who are you? Press? Paparazzi? A serial killer come to take me down?”
“Charles,” the blond woman whines. She sounds absolutely helpless and it kind of makes Charles want to comfort her. But then again, Charles is currently standing in her living room, covered only by her bedsheet, arguing with a woman she doesn’t know, who somehow broke into her apartment.
“Max,” she snarks back. “Who are you?”
“You wrote me last night! You made me come to life. You kissed me. I don’t know how else to explain it. I was words on a piece of paper, and a melody in your head. And when you played me last night, and then when you kissed your piano, I-,” Max stops, hesitates, “I don’t know, Charles. I am yours, that’s all I know.”

Summary
Everyone in this floating base expects them to be friends; because it's well known that humans pack-bond with anything. Humans get attached to everything they interact with, even if it's non-living, inanimate things like small robots or a funky lamp. Humans are some of the friendliest creatures that have no issues with most of the other life forms in the galaxy, so in everyone's minds, the fact that Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris, the two only Earth Humans in the whole Celestial Haven, aren't friends is a concept as unimaginable as an Itharii — a water species — living on a desert planet.

Summary
Lando Norris is the golden boy of university, popular, charismatic, and majoring in Sports Science. Oscar Piastri is his opposite: an introverted, brutally honest Quantum Physics major who’s more interested in lab results than campus drama. They meet in a shared Ethics class, where sarcasm sparks instantly. Everyone assumes they hate each other, but their sharp banter masks a growing tension neither of them knows what to do with.

Summary
Oscar’s definitely not the first driver to have a crush on his teammate, and he definitely won’t be the last, but that truth doesn’t make the reality any less bitter, any less difficult to swallow. Especially when it’s Lando Norris, and especially now that he’s standing across from the man that soured his win, unable to decide whether he wants to punch or kiss the fucking smug look off his face.
Maybe both.
Lando runs a large hand through his champagne soaked curls and says, with a note of vitriol in his voice, “Hey there, race winner.”
Yeah, definitely both.
__________After a botched pit stop, a mess of team orders and a lot of drama, Oscar Piastri gets his maiden win in Hungary. After the podium, Lando confronts him, looking for a fight---and Oscar, instead of being the calm, reserved teammate everyone expects, snaps.
A lot of things change, after that. To Oscar's surprise, nearly all of them are good.

Summary
There’s someone standing in his kitchen.
He looks young, maybe close to Max’s age, with messy dark brown hair that’s pulled back from his face by a red bandana, and he’s leaning against the kitchen counter like he’s supposed to be here.
Max’s first rather unhelpful thought is; fuck, he’s gorgeous. His second, more reasonable thought is;
“Who the fuck are you?”
“Charles Leclerc,” the man smiles. It's a little bit dazzling and Max is not at all distracted by it. He extends his hand for Max to shake. “I’m your new executive sous chef.”
Or: Max is very happy with his life, thank you very much. He has his restaurant, his team, and two Michelin stars at the age of 24. He definitely does not need some pretentious Monegasque chef coming in and throwing everything into chaos.
Except, maybe he does.
